Fans react to the Joe Rogan and Oprah Winfrey comparison meme
Rogan’s fans were quick to react to the meme. Many agreed with the thought that Rogan and Winfrey are similar, while others pointed out differences between them.
“When girls ask me what the appeal of Rogan is, I explain that he’s kinda like Oprah for dudes. He’s Bro-prah.” A user wrote in the comments.
One user called Rogan a ‘Good Dad.’ He wrote, “he’s not Oprah, he’s basically like a good Dad and his friends shooting the sh*t.”
“Oprah is way too mainstream and branded and uptight and careful – she’s got billions of dollars and will probably never suggest DMT or be high/drunk on air. Joe just kinda gets interesting people on and talks a lot about dr*gs and just trying new sh*t. Oprah wants to rule the world. Joe wants to have a good, interesting time.” Another user wrote.
A user, while suggesting that Rogan’s fan base transcends only one gender, wrote, “I am a woman, and he’s not just for men! He’s my Oprah too!”
“I feel like Joe has better guest variety and better conversation quality than Oprah limited to 20 minutes.” Another user wrote.
