I have been telling youtube im not interested in Joe Rogan for years. It still gives me joe rogan youtube shorts

Doesn't help that everyone and their mother has a channel that only shows Joe Rogan clips. I don't even like this shit YouTube, why can I recognize it from the fucking microphone.

You probably has some Joe Rogan video in your watch history.

Even hovering over those shorts can get them added on there for some dumb reason.

Go purge your history and see how much it improves.
