Adam Thorne reviews Joe Rogan's conversation with Congressman Tim Burchett, covering UAP disclosure, government secrecy, defense contractors, congressional corruption, and the growing distrust in American institutions.

Adam breaks down the biggest moments from the episode, including Burchett's push for UFO transparency, Rogan's skepticism, and the deeper question of whether the public is ever really told the truth.

Adam Thorne opens this week's episode with a tribute to Ed from the JRE Companion Instagram page, one of the most important fan creators in the entire Joe Rogan ecosystem. I share the story of first connecting with Ed in January 2023, discuss the incredible rise of the JRE Companion page, and explain why it stands apart as the best Rogan fan account online. From pulling up every video, image, article, and reference discussed on The Joe Rogan Experience to being reposted and acknowledged directly by Joe Rogan himself, Ed has helped shape the viewing experience for hundreds of thousands of fans around the world.

I talk openly about Ed's recent health battle, the toll recovery has taken, and why the Rogan community should rally around someone who has given so much to the fanbase without asking for much in return. A call to action is made to support Ed's GoFundMe and help him during his continued recovery journey.

Then for the solo review of Joe Rogan Experience #2490 with RZA. The conversation touches on discipline, Shaolin philosophy, staying grounded through success, Wu-Tang mythology, creativity, health, and RZA's new film One Spoon of Chocolate. Adam breaks down why the episode works best as a reflective conversation about alignment, purpose, and returning to the habits that keep people centered as life becomes bigger and more chaotic.

We're excited to share a preview of a new podcast we think you'd
enjoy: Two Percent.

From New York Times bestselling author and journalist Michael Easter
comes a twice-weekly deep dive into the science of living better by
doing things the hard way. Building on the insights of his #1 Substack
and acclaimed books, Easter balances rigorous evidence with a
healthy dose of skepticism to cut through the noise of the modern
wellness industry.

Whether he's interviewing elite explorers and Harvard biologists or
deconstructing the truth about longevity and metabolic health, this isn't
a show for "biohacking" perfectionists—it's a grounded, often
humorous guide for real people looking to build resilience and agency
in an increasingly comfortable world. From ancient wisdom to
cutting-edge research, listen to Two Percent to discover why the
antidote to modern malaise is often found in the challenges we've
been taught to avoid.

Find Two Percent on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get podcasts.
New episodes out Tuesdays and Thursdays.
