The Art of Value host JJ breaks down how some of Joe Rogan’s fellow comics are starting to heavily critique Rogan and his “Rogansphere” Austin comedy scene, including the vibe and “unfunny comedy” at his comedy club The Mothership. Rogan himself seems to be backpedaling on his “anti-woke” comedy stance in response to the criticism.

The Art of Value host JJ breaks down how a couple of Tesla influencers who are currently attempting a US coast to coast drive using only Tesla Full Self-Driving (Supervised), had a crash with a big, metal object on the road, only 58 miles from where then began. Tesla’s FSD system failed to see and avoid the object. Elon Musk has claimed since 2017 that Teslas running FSD will very soon be able to drive coast to coast without having to touch the steering wheel once. As of September 2025, this has still not been achieved.

The Art of Value host JJ breaks down how there are still many reports of Tesla’s FSD (Supervised) system still failing to stop for the flashing red lights and cross-arms at railroad crossings. Among other problems, when will Tesla be able to fix this major FSD issue that prevents it from reaching “full autonomy” and operating robotaxis without in-vehicle safety monitors?
