Recent episodes have showcased the likes of Sean O’Malley and Sean Strickland. These rising stars have garnered attention far beyond the MMA community. Further, their appearances on the JRE MMA Show have been windows into the highs and lows of their journeys. On the flip side, the JRE MMA Show has also welcomed battle-hardened veterans like Jorge Masvidal and Kamaru Usman. These episodes provide a rich tapestry of experiences, tales of triumph and adversity that resonate with fans.
With nearly 147 episodes and counting, the JRE MMA Show has solidified its place in the hearts of MMA enthusiasts.

Also, with everything that has been going on in his life, fans are craving to hear from ‘The Notorious’.
Conor McGregor’s return rumors and controversies
Although the Irishman has been away from the UFC Octagon, he is still in the headlines for numerous reasons. For a long time, the MMA world has been waiting for his UFC return. Earlier this year, UFC President Dana White talked about McGregor returning to face Michael Chandler in the latter part of 2023. However, it is almost impossible for the former UFC champ to come back this year.

For the last few months, many have raised questions about the Irishman’s return. Some feel that UFC’s highest earner might never return. Others feel that he is delaying his fight against Chandler. With so many statements and questions going around the air, fans haven’t heard much from the ‘Champ Champ’ himself.
McGregor occasionally tweets about his return, or gives crisp statements about it, but the fans are yet to hear the detailed perspective from the Irishman. Furthermore, there have been many controversies that the Dublin-born has been involved in. Therefore, this makes it the right time for him to appear on the JRE podcast and talk about what’s been up in his life.

However, fans rarely get to see the other side of UFC’s first double champ.
Also, the Irishman has never really appeared in a podcast. Enter Joe Rogan, the maestro of the podcasting world. Famous for his exceptional communication skills and his ability to draw out the deepest facets of his guests, Rogan seems like the best podcaster to host Conor McGregor.
