Popular podcaster and comedian Joe Rogan is sounding the alarm over the exposure of American students to radical gender theories and explicit, sexual content in schools.

During a recent episode with comedian Tim Dillon, Rogan expressed worry about the influence that teachers can have on students, noting that they spend a significant amount of time with children and some may hold extreme views.

“Those adults are with your children more than you are during the day,” he said. “They’re there for hours and hours with the undivided attention of your kids and some of them are f—ing loons.”

Rogan continued that “some of them think that they have a job to do, to remove the programming of the parents that they don’t agree with.”

The conversation took a critical look at the introduction of sexuality and gender theory to young children.

Both Rogan and Dillon agreed that such topics are inappropriate for American children. They stressed the malleability of children’s thoughts and how they can easily be influenced by ideologies at a young age.

Rogan drew attention to explicit materials found in some school books, expressing concern over illustrations depicting explicit content. He noted that introducing such material to children is concerning and likened it to “cartoon pornography.”

The discussion also touched on the lack of attention given to individuals who have detransitioned. Rogan highlighted the case of Chris Beck, a former Navy SEAL who regretted gender-related surgeries. Beck’s story serves as a cautionary tale about making life-altering decisions at a young age.

Both Rogan and Dillon expressed the need for a more balanced approach in discussing transgender issues, including addressing the experiences of detransitioners.
