Joe Rogan is a self-proclaimed tech geek, well known for his friendship with tech innovator and entrepreneur Elon Musk. He frequently interacts with people at the forefront of technology, and it’s no surprise that he’s comfortable navigating the digital world. This was evident in a recent episode of his podcast where Jack Carr, a pen-and-paper advocate, discussed the complexities of Apple’s cross-platform ecosystem.
Carr freely admitted his analog ways. He said, “I have notepads everywhere, yellow stickies everywhere like it’s chaos.” Rogan, ever the tech advocate, raised an eyebrow. “You don’t have it on your phone?” Carr’s response? For some reason, he doesn’t know.
Undeterred, Rogan, ever the helpful host, decided to give Jack Carr a crash course in the digital world. He whipped out his phone and demonstrated the wonders of voice notes with Siri. “The best thing about phones today is that you can talk to them,” Rogan said, launching into a mini-tutorial. “On both the Apple one and this one too, you just open up a note, and then when you’re writing a new note, you go down and press the microphone thing. When you press the microphone thing, it just lets you talk. Like here we go.”

“He might be the richest guy [in the world],” Joe Rogan said. “They say. He might be worth, like, some insane amount. Have you seen that house that they’re allegedly building for him?” Rogan asked, referring to Putin’s new mansion under construction on the Black Sea coast near the resort town of Gelendzhik. Rogan claimed that according to opposition political figures in Russia, Putin’s wealth is estimated to be around $200 billion, a figure denied by Putin’s party.
Furthermore, Jack Carr revealed that Putin’s house, which reportedly has secret bunkers, is detailed in Carr’s own writing. This information is also documented in Carr’s book, where he claims people can use satellite maps to zoom in and see the property. In reply, Rogan denied its authenticity.
