In just a few months, Khloe Kardashian has done what most people thought was impossible: she has taken over the podcasting industry with the force typically reserved for popular YouTube videos or headline-grabbing Netflix episodes. Her new podcast, Khloe in Wonderland, has surged in popularity and engagement on X, cementing its place at the heart of Gen Z and millennial culture. While celebrity podcasts are nothing new, something about Kardashian’s presence has resonated in ways that critics did not expect. Now, having hosted UFC boss Dana White, she seems to have earned his respect, as he gave her a simple yet effective piece of advice.
The UFC head posted a simple but meaningful shoutout to the $60 million worth Hollywood star on his Instagram story following his appearance on her podcast. Instead of writing a long paragraph, he let a few words do the work: “Congrats @khloekardashian Keep kickin a–!!” he wrote, while also sharing an article by the Hollywood Reporter that praises how well the podcast by the Gen Z and Millennial icon is doing. To the newbie in the podcasting realm, this advice to keep on kicking a– surely must’ve felt like a stamp of approval from a man who built his empire by identifying winners early. And the fact that he shared it after appearing on her show? That’s more than simply support; it’s recognition.
And to no one’s surprise, Khloe Kardashian’s numbers back it up. Her podcast has pulled in over 121 million video views and 425 million impressions on X alone, making it the platform’s best-performing show for young women, shattering all previous records. And to make things more interesting, she is bringing in guests like Dana White. In fact, to make it different, their podcast conversation between Dana White and Kardashian did not revolve solely around business or branding. It was a genuine and honest conversation about family, work, and how to stay grounded while balancing fame and responsibility.

The podcast is a part of Elon Musk’s “Originals on X” roster, but what truly stands out is its crossover success—it’s also charting on Spotify, where it’s presently ranked 70th in the United States. Sure, Joe Rogan still reigns supreme at number two, but let’s be honest: if Khloe maintains this momentum, the gap could close faster than anyone expected. And now, with Dana White’s encouragement lingering in the background, Khloe Kardashian appears more driven than ever to keep climbing—and perhaps one day, give the king of podcasting a run for his money. But until then, it would be interesting to see if either of them visits the other’s podcast. And while Joe Rogan has never talked about hosting Khloe Kardashian, he did reveal the specific way in which he would have Kim Kardashian on the Joe Rogan Experience.

Joe Rogan reveals his thoughts on bringing Khloe Kardashian’s sister on the podcast
As Khloe in Wonderland continues to gather traction and generate numbers that would make any content creator jealous, focus is gradually shifting to the rest of the Kardashian family. With Dana White’s endorsement and soaring X and Spotify ranks, Khloe Kardashian’s rise has sparked speculation, particularly regarding whether she or her famous sister will ever sit across from Joe Rogan on the Joe Rogan Experience. While the JRE host hasn’t mentioned the 40-year-old explicitly, he did once give his honest opinion on perhaps having Kim Kardashian on his show—and it was more thoughtful than most expected.
Joe Rogan is surprisingly picky about who sits across from him, although he could have a new celebrity visitor every day. His podcast is more than simply a celebrity circuit; it’s a place where he delves deeply into concepts, values, and experiences that speak to his listeners. When the topic of Kim Kardashian came up during an episode with Brendan Schaub and Eddie Bravo, you could almost sense the skepticism in the room. However, the UFC commentator did not dismiss the idea completely. Instead, he said clearly that he would welcome Kim Kardashian, but only to address one specific topic: her work on prison reform. “I’d have her come on and talk about her decision to help with prison reform, because I think that’s really admirable,” he said, adding genuine praise for how she’s used her platform for something bigger than fame.

As Joe Rogan said, Kim had met with Donald Trump and fought to free many prisoners whom he considered did not deserve to be in prison. As a result, clearly impressed by her noble work, the JRE host couldn’t help but be all praise as he said, “So respect to her… I mean, what she’s done is, like, she’s decided to make a difference. She didn’t have to make a difference. She could just buy diamonds to get her toes done. She decided to make a difference, you know? So I respect her 100%, man.”
What’s your perspective on:
Can Khloe Kardashian's podcasting success challenge Joe Rogan's reign, or is it just a fleeting moment?
Have an interesting take?
That alone changes the perspective. The UFC commentator isn’t simply looking for viral moments; he also wants to make a difference. And now, as Khloe Kardashian establishes her identity in the podcasting world, it raises the question of whether she, too, will be welcomed into Joe Rogan’s orbit. Perhaps not today, and perhaps not unless there is a greater reason behind it. However, the door isn’t as tightly closed as some may believe. And who knows—Khloe Kardashian’s next big guest could be Joe Rogan himself, going into her world before she enters his. What do you think? Let us know in the comments.
