These Guys Just Did a 12-Hour Parody of 'The Joe Rogan Experience'

Comedian Tim Heidecker just took aim at the most popular and influential podcaster in the world—or, arguably, paid him a huge compliment, depending on where you fall on the whole "imitation is the highest form of flattery" thing.

Heidecker, best known for On Cinema and the call-in podcast Office Hours, hosted a spoof of The Joe Rogan Experience which perfectly encapsulated the cadence and conversational patterns that you'll hear in any given episode of Rogan's show, complete with exceptionally on-brand ad breaks and what many have criticized as a tendency to platform controversial opinions and misinformation. And he did it while wearing a SpaceX hat, in a not-so-subtle nod to Joe Rogan's famous interview with tech CEO Elon Musk.

In the parody, Rogan stand-in Heidecker chaired a long and meandering discussion with "guests" Rajat Suresh and Jeremy Levick, in which they tackled such deep subjects as how things today are different from the way they used to be in the past, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's power to shape the future of society, the untapped healthcare benefits of "crab salts," porn in malls, the importance of going to sleep at night, and of course, cancel culture.

Perhaps predictably, Twitter is loving it. The entire thing, which can be watched on YouTube, plays for a staggering 12 hours: a cheeky extra bit of meta commentary on the standard run-time of Rogan's episodes. (Don't worry, though: Heidecker, Suresh and Levick actually just looped the first hour of their conversation twelve times, although it might take you a while to realize when their tautologous discussion has actually circled back to the beginning.)
