Joe Rogan likely never imagined he would become the powerhouse he is today, dominating the new-age media world. Through The Joe Rogan Experience, the 57-year-old has hosted some of the most sought-after guests, building connections along the way. Among them is comedian and fellow podcast host Theo Von, who recently shared an interesting take on the UFC commentator’s unique skill set.
Rogan is a man of many talents, excelling in podcasting via his nearly $250 million juggernaut, UFC commentating, and stand-up comedy. His journey in the comedy world led him to Von, whose own podcast has become one of the most popular in the industry. Despite Von’s success, he believes that the 57-year-old possesses a rare ability that sets him apart from other podcast hosts—an uncanny knack for detecting lies.
“You can’t really lie to Joe Rogan. He remembers everything.” Theo Von stated on the Fullsend Podcast. Furthermore, the 45-year-old comedian also mentioned how Rogan’s podcast has given many fans and viewers some food for thought through the many conversations he has had with his guests. That’s one aspect of his podcasting work that nobody can take away from him.

“I don’t think there’s anybody in the world who could do what he does because I think he’s given a lot of us information. People would have been able to like, learn things, learn about health, hypothesize about aliens, create conversations with their friends, history,” Von further stated.
Claiming that he knows nothing less than a “library,” Theo Von claimed that the vast base of Joe Rogan’s knowledge always comes in handy while addressing certain topics on his multi-million-dollar show. “He became like this human library kind of, you know. He started serving the library. Just f—-ng, a couple of chapters at a time.” Von further added.

Joe Rogan confronts Mark Zuckerberg over the ‘thrill’ of hunting
A couple of months ago, Joe Rogan had Mark Zuckerberg as a guest, who has made a lot of friends in the UFC due to his love for martial arts. During their conversation, the Meta CEO discussed hunting and the tools for it with the JRE host, when he claimed that he was a fan of the “bow and arrow.” However, Zuckerberg would later claim he prefers a rifle over the bow because of its ‘efficiency’. The shift in the billionaire’s stance made Rogan a bit skeptical as he’d go on to ask, “What kind of bow do you have?” Zuckerberg seemed a little uncomfortable and tried to dodge Rogan’s query.

Rogan would further press the Meta CEO, asking, “But do you know the company that makes it? Do you know how old it is?” Mark Zuckerberg would thereafter appear to be in a bit of a struggle as he finally came clean by replying, “This is embarrassing.” The clip from this particular JRE episode made rounds on social media, highlighting that Theo Von’s assessment was not wrong at all.
Well, that’s Theo Von’s take, but what’s yours? With more than 2200 JRE episodes out, what did you learn about Joe Rogan? Drop your comments below.
