For 13 years and running, The Joe Rogan Experience podcast has entertained and kept the fans hooked. The popular podcast has welcomed a wide array of guests. Besides having a long list of prominent guests, JRE fans might point out one particular name missing. Surprisingly, the bodybuilding legend, Arnold Schwarzenegger, is yet to grace the popular podcast. And to be precise, the fans might have been waiting for over 9 years now.

A long time back, the podcast host, Joe Rogan, asked the Hollywood star to feature in a JRE episode. This proposal came after the UFC commentator came to know that the bodybuilding legend followed him on Twitter. However, since then, there have been no developments in the same.
‘Excited’ Rogan asking Arnold Schwarzenegger to be a guest on his podcast
The color commentator has been associated with combat sports for a long period. Further, he has extensive knowledge of fitness and loves to widen his fitness knowledge horizon. Similarly, the former Fear Factor has hosted a number of athletes and fitness experts on JRE.
Likewise, when Joe Rogan came to know that his childhood idol follows him on Twitter, the reaction was a no-brainer. The UFC commentator freaked out at this news. Thereafter, an excited Rogan took to Twitter to express his emotions. He subsequently asked the “savage” former California governor to do a podcast episode together.
Hence, an overwhelmed Rogan wrote, “Holy shit, I just found out that @Schwarzenegger follows me. Let’s do a podcast, you fucking savage!”

While the 55-year-old made the tweet in 2013, the dream of fans to hear the duo talk about bodybuilding routine, hot takes on politics, and Hollywood anecdotes remains unfulfilled to this date.
