"I'm very lucky to be able to see people who are great at things up close," Chappelle said during an appearance on "The Joe Rogan Experience" podcast. "Even on this podcast ... it's one of the joys of my life getting to know these people and knowing and seeing them be human." Artists and creators, he said, all "struggle with these things and bellyache about decisions but none of these people are contest winners. They all work very hard." "I hope we all survive it," Chappelle added. "That's why that cancel culture s--- bothers me. I'm not even opposed to the ideas behind some of these cancelations. I get it."
