Despite Practicing MMA and Owning a Comedy Club, $120M Worth Joe Rogan Opens Up on His “Constant Process” That He Gets “Excited About”

Joe Rogan has found success in many fields, including martial arts and stand-up comedy. With success comes the need to improve as a performer. The 55-year-old recently mentioned how he continues to flourish in his career in a recent interview on ‘The Oil and Whisky’ podcast.

Most people know Joe Rogan for his role as the color commentator for the UFC. However, he has also been a stand-up comic and martial artist since the 1980s. He has two black belts in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and also has released several successful comedy specials. A couple of them are featured on the popular streaming platform, Netflix.

Joe Rogan claims every new stand-up show is a novel act

During his appearance on ‘The Oil and Whisky’ podcast, Joe Rogan talked about a lot of things, including his decision to move to Austin. However, the most important part of the interview was the time when Rogan mentioned the process of constantly improving himself. He claims that it is difficult to master the things he likes. The 55-year-old said, “The things that I like, you could never master.”

Rogan used his comedy career as an example first and stated that every show has the requirement for him to come up with new material. He said, “Like stand-up comedy, you always have to write new material, you’re always writing new jokes.” Furthermore, he claimed that jokes cannot be recycled and new shows require him to start from scratch. The UFC commentator said, “Every show is a new show. There’s always new things you have to add. You put out a special, you’ve gotta start from scratch.”

Rogan’s take on improving in jiu-jitsu

Joe Rogan has an extensive background in martial arts. However, he is in his 50s and claims that anybody can take him down. “In jiu-jitsu, there’s always someone who can kick my a*s,” said the double black belt holder. The only way to improve, according to Rogan, is to keep practicing. That is the only continuous process he’s concerned with.

“It’s like there’s no way to master it. You get better constantly. It’s a constant process, but you never get better [master it],” said the 55-year-old. He also revealed that the opportunity to grow and keep improving is the only thing that excites him more than anything. Rogan added, “It’s a constant process of ever-improvement in practice. Those are the things I get excited about.”
