18 Joe Rogan Experience Podcasts You Must Listen From 2019

4. 1393 – James Wilks & Chris Kresser – The Game Changers Debate

For the last few number of years, there's been raging battle between vegans and seemingly every one that isn't one. It's helped created countless memes and relatively funny tweets, but nothing actually seems to get resolved between the two parties.

So when The Gamechangers - a documentary about how veganism can benefit athletes - came out on Netflix it caused quite a stir. Was this something based on real-life facts or was it just an exceptionally well done propaganda piece? Originally Rogan had Chris Kresser, a paleo diet supporter, on the podcast to debunk some of the claims made in the documentary and he seemed to shine a light on what it was made for.

However, one of the stars of the documentary, James Wilks, was willing to go on the podcast to defend the film which led to an incredible episode. Kresser was completely obliterated during the debate with Wilks, who had a response for everything Kresser said. More importantly, when Wilks had follow-up questions, Kresser was oftentimes left in silence or had nothing great to say.

Whether you're a vegan or not, this particular episode of the show is fascinating to watch.
