I always thought he was a dumb media whore, but it turns out that he's stupid for free.

This admission could be calculated, he might just be trying to stay within his audience's palate.
Never bothered to listen to him, but a local stand up comedian has probably watched every podcast episode of his, and discussed it quite a bit on his own podcast: Nobody should listen to Rogan. He's an entertainer and that's it. He'll allow anyone on his podcast regardless of beliefs and he tends to either believe or pretend to believe them when they spew conspiracy theories and other bullshit. His political opinions depend on who's been on his show and that's it. Most guests have been right-wing grifters for a long time now, so that's what he believes.
And that's from a FAN of Joe Rogan.
