UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland made his first appearance on the JRE podcast a few months ago. He recently revealed that his experience of meeting the podcast’s producer Jamie Vernon wasn’t what he expected. Moreover, Strickland claimed that Joe Rogan may be indulging in disciplining his producer.

Jamie Vernon has been working with Joe Rogan since 2012 after Brian Redban left the production work. Since then, he has always been an active participant in the discussions the JRE host has with his guests. Meanwhile, Sean Strickland claimed that he noticed something unusual about Vernon when he met him on the sets of ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’. Let’s see what he had to say.

During a recent episode of comedian Theo Von‘s ‘This Past Weekend’ podcast, Sean Strickland mentioned his experience of appearing in Joe Rogan’s podcast. There, he claimed to have been confused when he met the producer Jamier Vernon. The middleweight champion believes that Joe Rogan may be involved in mistreating his producer.

“When I did the Rogan podcast… I was thrown off by Jamie. I think Rogan abuses him, dude,” said Sean Strickland. He also mentioned that before meeting Jamie Vernon, ‘Tarzan’ thought that the JRE producer might be a nerdy individual. But that wasn’t the case. Instead, Vernon appeared to be a rather angry person.

“I think I was picturing like a younger, white [and] nerdy kid, [but] no. He’s angry man… Jamie’s angry,” Strickland further stated. Given his experience of interacting with Jamie Vernon, the middleweight champion concluded that Joe Rogan could be regulating his producer’s behavior.

“I think Rogan disciplines him. Cos’ you see it. Every now and then, Rogan will let that sh*t slip,” Sean Strickland added. Meanwhile, ‘Tarzan’ also mentioned the observations he made when he saw Vernon and Rogan interact with each other. Let’s take a look at that front.

‘Tarzan’ is willing to help out Vernon

Sean Strickland told Theo Von that whenever the JRE producer tried to speak about something, Joe Rogan would quickly shut him down and turn to another topic. He said, “Like he [Jamie] will speak out of turn… and he’ll [Rogan] like discipline [him] like, ‘No, Jamie, not that. The other one.'”

The middleweight champion finally concluded that Jamie Vernon could be facing some difficulties. As such, he is willing to offer his help and support to the JRE producer if he needs it. “I think Jamie is f***ed up little bit… Yo, Jamie. Let us know, dude. Let us know if you’re in danger,” Strickland added.
