Joe Rogan decided to speak up about the modern education system. The stand-up comedian is very opinionated and took a stance to support kids and the way they learn. Rogan understands that some kids are slow to learn, while others are super fast.

Both of them can be a problem in their own way. However, it’s the teacher’s and the system’s responsibility to support and guide all children toward their individual goals. Because they could all be geniuses in their own way.

Each generation could harbor its own little Albert Einstein. And the system must accommodate each kid’s varied potential, according to the podcast host.

Rogan said, “Like if that’s the case, imagine the solution is to drug you.”

“It’s not like he’s so smart, This is all stupid to him.” and adds that Albert Einstein shared the same backstory. Because he was so different from the others, he couldn’t pass the 7th grade.

“Like, that was Einstein you know, like Einstein failed like seventh grade.”

Rogan added “Like, how the f*ck can… If you fail Einstein. I mean, you gotta think that maybe the way you’re teaching is kind of f*cked.”

Therefore, if someone as intelligent as Einstein can fail a simple 7th-grade exam, the education system has to reevaluate itself to accommodate special children.
