Joe Rogan: Triggered (2016)
As a natural comic, Joe Rogan is a force of nature. Now sporting a clean-shaven pate, he resembles an ebullient coach bellowing commentary to the team. Unfortunately, he starts with pot, then warns his audience that insanity might rule if the election gives us President Trump. (He doesn't think anyone is qualified for the job, and doubts it should even exist, since it was created "back when people wrote with feathers"). Rogan is nothing if not full-throated and confident in his intuitive take on things. He carries you with him, and had me laughing quite a bit (esp. with his positive insights about cults and Mormons). He even occasionally says intelligent things (then admits to ignorance, like an average joe). His language is naturally blue, but when it gets purple, it is for a good and funny reason. His final segment is about raising daughters with his wife, and how that affects him as a man. The closing scene is genius, depicting the demon and Bruce Jenner. I would have given him 4.5 stars, but he advocates for getting stoned, even while parenting. He is a master though. Enjoy! 4 stars. (10-21-2017)
