I feel the same way - he acts in desperation, which is quite the opposite of the public image he's been trying to build, and which gave him a big following.
I mostly agree. But Rogan’s physical appearance and demeanor in his apology reminds me of Anthony Jeselnik’s shark story from “Thoughts and Prayers”. To paraphrase: it’s one thing to put your own job on the line to take a stand, it’s something else entirely to put the jobs of everyone who depends on you on the line.
I didn't know he had a huge staff, but I'm pretty sure he saved enough to give them a nice severance package if things go that South and still have enough to retire and live a meaningful yet modest life... if there's nothing else for him to do, of course.
