I think Tom Delonge has been one of the most compelling people on the scene...
Rarely hear anything about him anymore, seems to be focusing more on music these days.
But he did a lot for the cause, possibly more than anyone else ever has besides Bob Lazar.
The way Joe Rogan treated him was truly horrendous, and granted their interview was almost 8 years ago, maybe Joe would treat him differently these days...
I just can't pass Joe's behavior off as a fault of ignorance regardless.
There seemed to be some kind of ego problem on Joe's part, maybe he misinterpreted Delonge's antics (dick jokes etc.) as some sort of attempted attack on his masculinity. What a shame, if so.
Like, fuck Joe, do you even know who you're talking to? You're talking to a pop punk rocker who gave us gems like this...
Of course he's gonna act immature and silly. Maybe do a little research on your guests.
The guy's a fucking legend in his sphere. The fuck did Joe expect??
Tom shared some hardcore universal truths in that interview that you rarely hear anyone touch on, even these days with all the saturation of spiritual discussions being merged with science and philosophy.
We need a rematch between these two, especially if we're to believe that Joe just knew so much less back then than he does now. Still I think ego is standing in his way. People ask him to have Tom back on every day, nothing yet.
And now isn't the time for it, really, since Tom's focus is elsewhere. The original interview was a missed opportunity for Joe, no doubt about it. He flubbed it harder than I've ever seen him flub anything before.
"Tom was right" shows up in many comment sections... it ain't for no reason. It's because he was right.
