Ok, I realize that Wheeler is a comedian, I realize that a lot of this is satire and it's hilarious, BUT...the man is spot-on with talking about current "country" music.
Country music hasn't sounded this good since it went billboard insane. Wheeler Walker Jr. will have no problem seeing this music go further than he imagines. I love it.
+Whitey 4000 Regardless of him playing a character, the ironic thing is that he actually ended up making entertaining country music, albeit in the form of comedy. In the process, he actually has become a country singer/entertainer. Who knows? He might go at it full time. There are a lot of actors and singers who fake the part to play the part and get paid.
Just for the record, David Allen Coe did this back in the 80s. Even though, DAC was already successful, and the "X-rated hits" album was limited print and specifically said not to request playing the songs at live shows; the album was a turning point in country. It even brought a different level of "outlaw" to Outlaw country. In my opinion, it gave new meaning to outlaw country.
+Chris Asterion now im actually going to listen to it , im the same way with country but every ones saying this is a great episode! this comment sold it for me lol
Tyler Loper-ford he always acts like he doesn’t know about anything, this or that, that’s a blatant lie. Joe says he don’t know about David Allen Coe, he talked about him in 1998
Moises Saldana you should listen to Sturgill Simpson, Jason Isbell, Whitey Morgan, Cody Jinks, David Alan Coe, Colter Wall, Ray Wylie Hubbard, Ryan Bingham, Chris Stapleton, The Band of Heathens, Waylon Jennings, Shooter Jennings, Hank Williams Jr, Hank Williams III for some good country
you really need to find Larry Pierce. he is the undisputed Godfather Of Dirty Country! i've been diggin his music for 25 years. Girls were made to fuck, pussywhipped, she only likes girls, fuckin you is always on my mind, in the rain, and definitely check out Make Your Daddy Happy aka I Eat Pussy! all his song titles are censored on google play but the songs aren't.
Definitely one of my favorite podcast. I love when you guys touched up on Larry Flint and Hunter S Thompson. Plus all the music conversation was great.

We took a guided fishing trip and our guide put this album on the Bluetooth speaker. We limited out quickly that day. If you want to catch more fish, play some Wheeler Walker Jr.
Oh my God I can't believe you referenced Brown Bunny I only rented it because of motorcycle racing.... I live in obscure little rule town in South Central Missouri I found that movie at a local movie store 15 years ago I couldn't stop watching it and then at the end of it it blew my fucking mind and the full Hummer was amazing. I still remember that movie 15 years later I'm 32
Glad I didn't have to listen to FGL...he should have HANK 3 on...that'd be an interesting interview since he's been interviewing country artists lately.
Wheeler Walker Jr. is the man! His album is awesome not only because of the funny lyrics but because it's kick ass music. Can't Fuck You Off My Mind sounds like an old Buck Owens song with that Stratocaster rocking.
I skipped this podcasts for days, because I read the description and was like "yeah no thanks" went back to it. Saw the comments about it being funny. Watched it and it's now one of my favorite podcasts of all time...sucking dick and kicking ass LMFAO
Love this guy it really is country music i remember traveling in the car with my dad listening waylon ,hank, coe and hearing that steel guitar and edgy lyrics can we please get this shit back
Me also, unfortunately I was born on the wrong side of the atlantic. ❤ 🇺🇲🦅 I prefer traditional country to that Bro country / and new Pop-hip hop hybrid stuff that's dominating the country charts for a while. Unfortunately our Country music is watered down here, we have some good artists, but they are not really country. We even had a tv channel over here dedicated to country a few years back when it was starting to make another impact on our music scene.
***** ...the guy is Ben Hoffman playing a character, no conspiracy, just facts. My comment was addressing everyone who said "OMG Joe is an idiot! This guy trolled him so good"
Lol this comment section is full of people who just hate. I understand a lot of you don't want to listen to a country singer talk, but you don't have to be here. I appreciate this podcast because of the different perspectives on life you get so I value this podcast just like if Sam Harris was on or if Joey Diaz was. So stop hating and just leave, and come back when you see something you like.
The dining room fell silent I can't believe what I just said I just told my dad he's full of it And I watched his face turn red And I should've said "I'm sorry" But I matched him shout for shout I can still hear that screen door slammin' The night I called him out He said "Son, it's gonna hurt me more than it hurts you" But somehow I couldn't help but have my doubt 'Cause I'd seen my older brothers crawl back in the house Each time they called the old man out Fist to fist and eye to eye Standin' toe to toe He would've let me walk away But I just would not let it go Years of my frustration Had lead me to this night Now he'll pay for all the times that he's been right He said "Son, it's gonna hurt me more than it hurts you" But somehow I couldn't help but have my doubt 'Cause I'd seen my older brothers crawl back in the house Each time they called the old man out It was over in a minute That's when I realised The blood came from my mouth and nose But the tears came from his eyes And in memory of that fateful night I know the greatest pain was his And I just pray some day I'm half the man he is Just like my older brothers I crawled back in the house The night I called the old man out This was one of my favourite songs growing up but i cant stand today's country music. I'm glad Mr Walker, Jr is doing what he is and i wish him all the success in the world.
In Canada back in the 70's we had the MacClain brothers " Taken' the O out of Country Show". Great album, dirty as shit. It just does not get any better.
I found wheeler Walker because my last name is Wheeler and I have been listening to his shit nonstop and laughing constantly And now that I’ve watch this I love this fucker even more
I hope Joe continues to bring more artist like this man to speak truth about the industry. I find what he has had to say very interesting and insightful. I have a son and brother in law who want to start a music career but hearing stuff like this and what happens behind the scenes I find to be very disturbing.
Ok, I realize that Wheeler is a comedian, I realize that a lot of this is satire and it's hilarious, BUT...the man is spot-on with talking about current "country" music.
and the crazy thing is lyrics aside he can sing and has a great sound lol.
You mute the lyrics it is the best playing coming out of nashville. The musicians they have are unbelieveable
His producer was the same for Chris Stapletons album.
He’s serious about the music part, that’s obvious
Wheeler Walker speaks the truth about today's Country music!
I found wheeler from looking up real country music and found Summers in Kentucky and just fell in love with this man.
"I don't need to talk to anybody, i got the answers"
Amazing.
8 years later and Wheeler continues to be the best Country Music singer since David Allen Coe! Long Live Wheeler Walker Jr!
Banned by WalMart. Just bought your album for that.
Toth-tard McVeigh - dick move, bro.
And........ How was it?
@Tothy Veigh Damn tour racist
Mike Reynolds Absolutely Great!!!
The album is great.
Country music hasn't sounded this good since it went billboard insane. Wheeler Walker Jr. will have no problem seeing this music go further than he imagines. I love it.
Didn't know who Wheeler was till today and for 30 minutes I thought he was a character being played by Tom Segura
+Danny Khatcherian i keep seeing Al from Tool Time
+Danny Khatcherian he's a mommy and wears his jean high and tight too.
+Danny Khatcherian comedian Ben Hoffman
He is a character being played. Ben Hoffman is a comedian playing wheeler walker as a character
I think he’s gotten to close to the character lately
8 years later and the more building made for wheeler is still fantastic 😂
Love the people in the comments who have no idea what's going on in this podcast
Same
it's like one big inside joke-cast lol
+Whitey 4000 Regardless of him playing a character, the ironic thing is that he actually ended up making entertaining country music, albeit in the form of comedy. In the process, he actually has become a country singer/entertainer. Who knows? He might go at it full time. There are a lot of actors and singers who fake the part to play the part and get paid.
+Thomas Centineo Flight of the Conchords and Tenacious D made great music.
+flippyhambone I love me some Tenacious D!
Definitely not what I was expecting. This dude is hilariously bad ass
These Zach Galafanakis characters are getting elaborate.
John Ford stuuuupid
😂😂😂😂
Shut up lol. That's funny but he literally doesnt even look like him. I respect it though
Fucking great comment. Truly hilarious
That's hilarious
Just for the record, David Allen Coe did this back in the 80s.

I HATE COUNTRY MUSIC, BUT I LOVE THIS DUDE......LOVE YOUR HONESTY BRO.......NEVER CHANGE.....AWESOME......
+Chris Asterion now im actually going to listen to it , im the same way with country but every ones saying this is a great episode! this comment sold it for me lol
I love how he never finishes his own sentences.
Welp....looks like I'm goin to my first country concert in June.
How was it?
Time machine!!!
I hope you made it. This man is awesome
Wheeler Walker Jr. Brought me here..Sorry just seen "jre brought me here" on every one of his videos so thought I'd see what the fuss was about.
Me too
People are saying "JRE" brought me here because of the recent podcast he did with Cowboy Cerrone. They listen to one of his songs on there.
That is the exact reason why I found out about this guy.
Micheal Jones same here that's funny
My mind is now blown.
Sucks that Ben never paid Wheeler for his appearance on that show LOL
Was gonna skip this one when I saw country music singer, now I added it to my favorites listening to again high as fuc
This is the best JRE yet! 17 minutes in: "I may not have all my facts in a row but he's a hired government assassin!"
Instead of "I know it all" I dont know shit but here is my opinion
Ahah ahah still a classic
Benjamin O'Neill the only BS in it is about Ben! This is one of the best, hands down! WW needs a larger road tour for sure!!!
Tyler Loper-ford he always acts like he doesn’t know about anything, this or that, that’s a blatant lie. Joe says he don’t know about David Allen Coe, he talked about him in 1998
This man is the only reason why i'll ever get into country music.
i stopped 10mins in and had to hear him on internet radio.
wwwwoa! i hated country until just today.
+Moises Saldana same here
Check out David allan coe, He been doing X rated country music since the 70's
Moises Saldana you should listen to Sturgill Simpson, Jason Isbell, Whitey Morgan, Cody Jinks, David Alan Coe, Colter Wall, Ray Wylie Hubbard, Ryan Bingham, Chris Stapleton, The Band of Heathens, Waylon Jennings, Shooter Jennings, Hank Williams Jr, Hank Williams III for some good country
@@mr.anderson3645 is the first half of your list really new.. Cause I only recognize from Stapleton down..
you really need to find Larry Pierce. he is the undisputed Godfather Of Dirty Country! i've been diggin his music for 25 years. Girls were made to fuck, pussywhipped, she only likes girls, fuckin you is always on my mind, in the rain, and definitely check out Make Your Daddy Happy aka I Eat Pussy! all his song titles are censored on google play but the songs aren't.
Ben Hoffman. Best troll since Larry the Cable Guy. Great character.
wait ! larry the cable isnt a real person !?!
Read my comment again. You're looking bad here.
You suck tim
Tim Carter I read his comment as sarcasm
So..... what is “wheeler’s,” real name? Ben Hoffman? (Yes.... I’m naive, I don’t listen to country music or watch Comedy Central.)
Kentucky's Wheeler Walker Jr, (Ben Hoffman) from Lexington, Ky. We love him and want him for State Governor
My favorite podcast yet. So glad to hear that there is hope for real country music.
lmao!
Ok, I went into this podcast expecting to really hate it. This guy is hilarious.
new drinking game - every time Wheeler drops the f bomb.
Fuckkkk hahahahaha
Death
Welp time to pull out the Irish in me
Haha. This guy. He can barely complete a sentence without interrupting himself. Shit cracks me up.
Can't believe I ain't heard of him till recently. My kind of music. Dudes a straight forward badass
LOL! the bashing on Sturgill is hilarious! "i don't have all my facts straight but i know its true." This guy was hilarious!!
I'm so glad I'm alive when music like this is around what a fucking crazy time to be alive
Him bashing on Strugill is fucken brilliant PR LOL
+Zeke Rodriguez he knows what he's doing, dude is hilarious
Definitely one of my favorite podcast. I love when you guys touched up on Larry Flint and Hunter S Thompson. Plus all the music conversation was great.
Joe had them go back to those pics 3 times to see how handsome those fellas were lol goddamn
this guy is single handedly saving country music AND America
Joe Rogan is the man and Wheeler Walker is one funny dude!
I never liked american country music but I like this guys music. Great personality too. Thanks Joe for enriching my life some more!
What does European country music sound like?..
The fact that I still have no idea just how serious he is about Sturgill being a CIA assassin makes it even more hilarious.

14:44 weird edit / skip. What happened!?
CIA cover op.

Friendly reminder
Jeffrey Epstein didn't kill himself.

exactly!!! same thing I've been saying
Евгений Фуко funny enough wheeler has a song called Steel Panther fucked my girlfriend
thought the same hahaha
Just got back home from the Austin concert. Amazing show.
Real Country. Y'all best be prepared...
The original country outlaw was Hank Williams Sr.
I disagree no outlaw sings gospel songs
KRIEG THE PSYCHO you think Waylon or willie never sang gospel songs.
The original was Jimmy Rogers
What was an outlaw song by hank sr?
Rogan deserves an award for keeping this a "work"
One of the more entertaining JRE podcasts of 2016.
We took a guided fishing trip and our guide put this album on the Bluetooth speaker. We limited out quickly that day. If you want to catch more fish, play some Wheeler Walker Jr.
"We're banned from Walmart by the way!" so funny love this guy.
I love the amazement the amazement in voice when he figured out what pop music is.
how would he not know it's Ben Hoffman if we had him on podcast #341 smart asses. Joe just having fun with comedian buddies
Just started listening to wheeler, words cant express how over the fucking moon I am Joe's done a couple of interviews with this fucking ledgend.
Had to buy the album as soon a s I heard Eatin' Pussy/Kickin' Ass. One of the Greatest decisions I've ever made.
Oh my God I can't believe you referenced Brown Bunny I only rented it because of motorcycle racing.... I live in obscure little rule town in South Central Missouri I found that movie at a local movie store 15 years ago I couldn't stop watching it and then at the end of it it blew my fucking mind and the full Hummer was amazing. I still remember that movie 15 years later I'm 32
thank you Joe for showing me a true god
I love Wheeler Walker jnr. My favorite song is family tree. Hope he comes to Australia.
All you cunts need to lighten up.
This was fucking great!
+SpaceManDawn I know right?? How can you hate a man who names the first song on his album "Beer, Weed, and Cooches", the man has life figured out.
+SpaceManDawn who Ever dislikes this Obviously don't know Real Comedy & a Real Artist right here! none of this wishy washy bullshit artists.
Best JRE yet. Crying over here.
Glad I didn't have to listen to FGL...he should have HANK 3 on...that'd be an interesting interview since he's been interviewing country artists lately.
Hells yer
Just downloaded his album. Different to hear music like that with lyrics like that. Wont be sitting around on a Sunday listening with the kids.
GET CODY JINKS OR JAMEY JOHNSON ON THE PODCAST !
Wheeler Walker Jr. is the man! His album is awesome not only because of the funny lyrics but because it's kick ass music. Can't Fuck You Off My Mind sounds like an old Buck Owens song with that Stratocaster rocking.
I skipped this podcasts for days, because I read the description and was like "yeah no thanks" went back to it. Saw the comments about it being funny. Watched it and it's now one of my favorite podcasts of all time...sucking dick and kicking ass LMFAO
Wheeler Walker Jr has the best country music ever

And Cash & the highway men
Rebel Son has been doing this exact thing for years!
Have listened to this 3 times. this guy is brilliant!
"When I see a girl whose skinny I think she's using me for food" had me dead I never expected that
My buddy on our school bus showed me this man and I've never laughed so hard in my life
This guys real name is Ben Hoffman. Wheeler Walker is a character he is playing. Basically the Larry the cable guy of country music.
I'm English, love Country. But Wheeler has a point.
Me also, unfortunately I was born on the wrong side of the atlantic. ❤ 🇺🇲🦅 I prefer traditional country to that Bro country / and new Pop-hip hop hybrid stuff that's dominating the country charts for a while. Unfortunately our Country music is watered down here, we have some good artists, but they are not really country. We even had a tv channel over here dedicated to country a few years back when it was starting to make another impact on our music scene.
watched this live I was falling around laughing at Joe's reaction's classic
these comments make me happy. it's awesome when your favorite comedians manage to get in the same room together.
Joe is in on the joke guys, as it's finishing you hear Ben say "how was that?" and Joe laughs and says "It was great!"
+THE HASH The last podcast he referred to him as Ben Hoffman so yeah, I'm not sure how it's going over everyone's heads. Goddamn hilarious.
***** ...the guy is Ben Hoffman playing a character, no conspiracy, just facts. My comment was addressing everyone who said "OMG Joe is an idiot! This guy trolled him so good"
Chad Grauke Plus he says at the start that he looks a lot like Hoffman, trying to clue in the unfamiliar lol
+dnicely42 The only moron is you, dumbass.
The level of commitment to the bit here is fantastic! Bravo to the JRE!!!!
This dude is Hilarious! I haven't laughed so hard in a long time.
I laughed as hard as Joe laughed when he read that song title. That shit is insanely hilarious.
This guy holds the record for most "fucks" mentioned on JRE
+Chris T k
Lol this comment section is full of people who just hate. I understand a lot of you don't want to listen to a country singer talk, but you don't have to be here. I appreciate this podcast because of the different perspectives on life you get so I value this podcast just like if Sam Harris was on or if Joey Diaz was. So stop hating and just leave, and come back when you see something you like.
This shit was surprisingly interestingly hilarious
He said...." But you ever loved and lost"... Mid Florida line canter. Love it joe! Love it wheeler!!
The dining room fell silent
I can't believe what I just said
I just told my dad he's full of it
And I watched his face turn red
And I should've said "I'm sorry"
But I matched him shout for shout
I can still hear that screen door slammin'
The night I called him out
He said "Son, it's gonna hurt me more than it hurts you"
But somehow I couldn't help but have my doubt
'Cause I'd seen my older brothers crawl back in the house
Each time they called the old man out
Fist to fist and eye to eye
Standin' toe to toe
He would've let me walk away
But I just would not let it go
Years of my frustration
Had lead me to this night
Now he'll pay for all the times that he's been right
He said "Son, it's gonna hurt me more than it hurts you"
But somehow I couldn't help but have my doubt
'Cause I'd seen my older brothers crawl back in the house
Each time they called the old man out
It was over in a minute
That's when I realised
The blood came from my mouth and nose
But the tears came from his eyes
And in memory of that fateful night
I know the greatest pain was his
And I just pray some day I'm half the man he is
Just like my older brothers
I crawled back in the house
The night I called the old man out
This was one of my favourite songs growing up but i cant stand today's country music. I'm glad Mr Walker, Jr is doing what he is and i wish him all the success in the world.
This guy is the Kenny Powers of country music
I miss the 3 hour podcast
In Canada back in the 70's we had the MacClain brothers " Taken' the O out of Country Show". Great album, dirty as shit. It just does not get any better.
I just realized this guy talks just like Johnny Hendricks lmao
I found wheeler Walker because my last name is Wheeler and I have been listening to his shit nonstop and laughing constantly And now that I’ve watch this I love this fucker even more
You need to talk to Alex Jones about this. LOL
Just discovered this guy. Fuckin love his shit.
Joes next guest:
1. Mark Cuban
2. Putin
3. Eminem
4. Bill Gates
5. Trump
Thank you sooo much for bringing this man into my life, Joe.
This is probably my favorite Jim Ragan
Dude.... this guy is kinda like the Weird Al of Country Music! Not a country fan, but a friend has me listen to some of his stuff and I’m in!!!! 😂
He sucks
"That puts a smile on my face", while the dude frowns. Now if that ain't country!
Oh God this must be one of the greatest Rogan podcast I ever watch. Hahaha
Needs more Bill Burr.
+MikeRoePhonicsMusic it's gotta good spread
I hope Joe continues to bring more artist like this man to speak truth about the industry. I find what he has had to say very interesting and insightful. I have a son and brother in law who want to start a music career but hearing stuff like this and what happens behind the scenes I find to be very disturbing.
lmao !
