Joe Rogan is one of the most influential names in the world. This is because of his famous podcast show. On his podcast, ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’ Rogan is vocal about many topics, including science, medicine, and politics.

However, this quality of Rogan has backfired on him. The UFC commentator received huge backlash for discussing the ongoing pandemic on his podcast show. While many criticized the 54-year-old, others, including famous UFC fighters and also Lex Fridman, came in support of Rogan.

Fridman posted a tweet to support Rogan. He wrote, “I stand with Joe Rogan. It is not a coincidence that the attacks calling him racist come as pressure on Spotify to censor builds.”

“Politicians and the media profit on division & outrage. They fuel the extremes that make us believe we’re divided. We’re not. We’re in this together.”- Fridman concluded.

Rogan has a good relationship with the MIT lecturer. He has also appreciated Fridman and gifted him an Omega Speedmaster Moonphase Co-Axial Master Chronometer watch during an episode of the podcast.
