Joe Rogan and Philomena Cunk are both very entertaining. Just that Cunk generally has the good sense to stay away from politics.
She's also a character and it's a bit. He's serious.
Yeah Cunk is clearly played/written by a very intelligent woman. Her stupidity is consistently quite clever especially with her ability to get experts baffled at how to begin correcting her.
Rogan isn't a bit. His decisions are that of an idiot thinking he's playing the jester, but merely coming off as a fool.
I don't know how much improvisation she puts into it but AFAIK she is written by a team of three men and the series in which she stars were created by Charlie Brooker.
Gesturing at a renaissance painting and asking a museum curator "What the fuck is this?" is the funniest thing I"ve seen in the last few years.
she would be an actual comedian, and rogan kinda is a washout. alot of conservatives are very bitter once they become washout comedians.
I would LOVE a Philomena Cunk interview podcast. Though I imagine it might get old after a while
