PeterMoro Posted July 29, 2019 John Carmack just tweeted: "All obstacles are cleared and all objections are dealt with – after several years of requests, I’m finally going on the @joerogan show next month!" That's gunna be cool. 10 Share this post Link to post
xvertigox Posted July 29, 2019 I'm sure they'll talk a lot about Quake which will be awesome. I imagine it'll be largely focused on VR though (which is also awesome). 1 Share this post Link to post
SYS Posted July 30, 2019 Inb4 "John, have you ever done DMT while designing rocket ships, shooting demons, and programming our reality that is the virtual one while in a float tank?" Seriously though, this is going to be awesome. 2 Share this post Link to post

DuckReconMajor Posted July 30, 2019 Dammit someone made the DMT joke before me. Definitely looking forward to this. 1 Share this post Link to post
Spectre01 Posted July 30, 2019 Will John smoke a J like Musk did or would that affect Oculus stock? Maybe it's fine as long as he doesn't inhale. 2 Share this post Link to post
xvertigox Posted July 30, 2019 Carmack strikes me as the kind to microdose LSD rather than go for DMT breakthroughs. 8 Share this post Link to post
Caffeine Freak Posted July 30, 2019 Awesome. Been wanting this to happen for a while. I know Rogan had said via Twitter that he would ONLY want the discussion to be about games, and Carmack had stated that the primary obstacle was company shareholders who wanted to avoid another Musk type of episode. Psyched about this. 1 Share this post Link to post
Gifty Posted July 30, 2019 "John, I've got this burning question I have to get off my chest, and I think your fans are just as curious as I am: how did you help fake the moon landing and plan the Kennedy assassination? Is it true that you wrote all the facial recognition software for Depe State©?" 4 Share this post Link to post

Maximum Matt Posted July 30, 2019 And for the record, John Carmack could totally hand Rogan his own ass in a cage match. 2 Share this post Link to post
PeterMoro Posted July 30, 2019 Yknow, it would be even cooler if John Romero were there as well. I'd love to hear them chat about the good 'ole times and the game industry these days...over a few glasses of whiskey. 3 Share this post Link to post
FractalBeast Posted July 30, 2019 I wonder if John Carmack is going to casually choke out Joe Rogan... that'd be pretty funny. YOU KNOW WHAT VIDEO I'M TALKING ABOUT! 1 Share this post Link to post
Reisal Posted July 30, 2019 Joe Rogan eh? That's a doozy. Last live one I watched was Rogan/Tim Pool/Jack Dorsey.. 0 Share this post Link to post
Maximum Matt Posted July 31, 2019 I can totally see him in the cage, and when the bell rings, he calmly takes his glasses off and puts them in his shirt pocket, then immediately sprints at Rogan with his clawed hands in front of him, emitting an inhuman, nasally scream 4 Share this post Link to post
Spladam Posted July 31, 2019 I have to wonder what all the "objections" they had to deal with and request they had to clear were? No questions about Columbine or some shit like that? 0 Share this post Link to post
Szymanski Posted July 31, 2019 I sorta want Eddie Bravo in there asking about the moon landings and flat earth, just for Johns reaction 2 Share this post Link to post

No questions about Columbine or some shit like that? Not entirely sure. Carmack had said that lawyers intervened in the past when Rogan wanted to interview him, but wasn't specific about what the objections were. I wouldn't imagine Columbine would be the sort of topic Rogan would even bring up at this point, we're a couple decades past that now. My instinct is that it has more to do with the Zenimax v. Oculus case. Another possibility: Rogan doesn't shy away from controversial guests and topics on his show, so it could also be that the lawyers/shareholders/whoever were nervous about bad PR if Rogan were to broach some politically sensitive topic while Carmack was on the podcast. 3 Share this post Link to post
Eurisko Posted August 1, 2019 THIS is gonna be a special one. I know Joe Rogan was a big fan of Quake and DOOM back in the day , he mentioned it on a show not too long ago. 3 Share this post Link to post
