Joe Rogan is actively critiquing mainstream media. This approach has earned him followers across various spectrums. Thus, he has become a major voice, and his podcast The Joe Rogan Experience, is the most renowned podcast. Therefore, he is in the psyche of both common folks and celebrities. One such NBA celebrity, Boston Celtics Great Kevin Garnett posted a story showing a clip from Joe Rogan’s podcast, where he is talking about how local news channels say the same things, spanning across hundreds of channels. The sentence structures and word usage is the same implying that they get the same script from someone powerful.

Posting this Joe Rogan clip, KG writes, “The matrix is very real ppl”. Andrew Tate re-popularized the notion of the Matrix, drawn from the cult-classic movie The Matrix. As per Tate, what we perceive as real in this world is a part of the Matrix which has created an illusionary world, a simulation operated by elite people. And for someone to know the reality, one needs to get out of the matrix. Tate posed as someone who could rescue people from the matrix by following his ways. Now it isn’t clear how KG agrees with Tate’s overall world overview, but he certainly believes news channels parroting the same thing as a mechanism of control and as a part of the matrix.
