The people of New Jersey seem to be in the midst of something straight out of the ‘Stranger Things’ series and Joe Rogan is not far from the spectacle! When Rogan is not hyping up fight fans with his commentary on UFC fights, he indulges in discussing the most outlandish conspiracy theories among other hot topics on his podcast. Despite his penchant for the strange, dark, and mysterious, the podcaster generally takes every piece of information with a pinch of salt. However, this time, he seemed specifically fascinated, and slightly disturbed by the news coming out of New Jersey.

What made him nervous about the state of the world recently was the news of unidentified flying objects or ‘drones’ in New Jersey. What he thought was initially ‘sus’, has now made him nervous, as he posted his verdict on X. Uploaded a video of John Ferguson – the CEO of Saxon Aerospace – who sparked concerns about the UFO sightings in New Jersey, Rogan posted, “This is the first video about these drones that has got me genuinely concerned.” Ferguson uploaded a video claiming that mysterious drone sightings were seen off the US East Coast and the Midwest. He also stated that this could be linked with the efforts to locate nuclear material, including a missing warhead that allegedly came from Ukraine in the 80s.

In the 9-minute video, Ferguson mentioned that the unusual drone is not “nefarious in intent” but might be connected with locating radioactive materials. “These drones are flying low at night. There’s no reason for that unless they’re trying to smell something on the ground—gas leaks, radioactive material, or something else,” Ferguson narrated. He also added that his opinion on the matter is based on years of experience and professional merit.

Well, this news from Ferguson seems to have terrified Rogan because the comedian podcaster had a conversation with his old friend about drone sightings in 1975. This conversation happened five years ago. Let’s take a closer look at what conversation Joe Rogan had about drone sightings in the 70s.

Joey Diaz ahead of his times? Discussed UFO sightings with Joe Rogan 5 years ago!

Joe Rogan’s suspicion on this subject matter was fuelled by the fire that Cuban-American comedian and actor Joey Diaz ignited five years ago on JRE #1319. As per his usual MO, Rogan got into a deep discussion with the veteran comedian Diaz about extra-terrestrial life and UFO sightings. Diaz had claimed that a UFO landed in the Hudson County Park back in 1975 and the FBI locked up the park to keep everything under wraps. He said, “I was a kid, and the next day, the feds locked off the park with yellow tape. They were taking samples. Go look it up, dog.”

He talked about how residents from the nearby housing were witnesses to what happened so many years ago. According to Diaz, they saw ten hooded figures come out of the alleged UFO to collect samples of the soil in that area before leaving in their spacecraft. He mentioned the name of the area and said, “That’s called North Bergen—that’s where I’m from. That’s called… I forget what it’s called… It’s a circular building. They did so much c-ke in there in the ’80s, they called it ‘The Grinder’ cause it was shaped like Stonehenge. People that lived in that building have seen UFOs for f—–g years.” Although this conversation between Diaz and Rogan happened 5 years ago – John Ferguson’s video about mysterious drone activity lends credence to Diaz’s words.

Known for being an ardent critique of the government, the podcaster called out the ‘sus’ statements made by White House National Security spokesperson John Kirby. This is because the Department of Homeland Security claimed that the sightings were neither of UFOs nor were they drones sent by the government. Clearly irked by these statements, Rogan reshared a video of Kirby’s comments to X with the caption, “This is what the kids call ‘sus’.” He even reshared the clip from his JRE podcast with Diaz years ago, and wrote a caption stating, “The great and powerful @madflavors_world called this NJ drone sh-t years ago.”

What do you think these of drone sightings? Do you think they’re evidence of extra-terrestrial life, or are they just exercises conducted in secret by the US government? Let us know in the comments down below.
