What Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that Joe Rogan Questions Everything takes an objective-but-humorous look at theories about and investigative practices of phenomena like alien landings, Big Foot, man-made killer viruses, and other things that most people don't believe in. Teens will probably be able to handle it, but it's got some salty vocab, and discussions of potentially life-threatening events that younger viewers might find a little scary.

What's the Story?
JOE ROGAN QUESTIONS EVERYTHING features comedic host Joe Rogan investigating interesting, unorthodox, and/or just plain weird things that most people don't believe exist. From UFOs and Bigfoot to studies showing the existence of man-made killer viruses and the ability to use weather conditions as lethal weapons, Rogan talks to scientists, educators, and eye witnesses in order to understand the theories behind these phenomena, and the various methods they use to prove them. He sometimes joins folks in searching for the evidence that will show the world that their claims are true. In between his interviews and investigations, Rogan discusses his thoughts about what he is learning on his podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience, with his sidekick, Duncan Trussell.
Is It Any Good?
Joe Rogan Questions Everything reveals some of the many theories that people from all walks of life have about events that, up until now, have been impossible to verify. It also showcases the lengths to which people will go to prove the existence of the unexplainable, which range from to using standard scientific practices to individual, self-designed methods to record, capture, and understand phenomena.
Rogan approaches each subject and/or individual with a sincere interest and some objectivity. But what makes the show entertaining is his funny (but polite) way of communicating his skepticism about much the evidence presented to him. Those who believe in the theories being presented here may take issue with this, but most viewers will probably enjoy the humor in it.
Talk to Your Kids About ...
Families can talk about the unexplained. Why are people committed to proving that certain things exist, even if most people don't take them seriously? If we don't have evidence of something, does this mean it automatically isn't real? Can you think of anything that in the past people didn't believe was real, but thanks to research and evidence, is now accepted as something that exists?
Do you believe in some (or all) of the things they talk about on this show? If not, where do you think these theories come from? How has television approached these subjects over the years?
