“Like, I’ve met some famous people, and it’s like weird when you meet them. Like you, like uncomfortable, you feel strange. And then you go, ‘oh, he’s just a person. He’s a person like me…”
“Like Matthew McConaughey is a great example. I’ve had dinner with Matthew McConaughey and his wife. And my wife. And he’s so nice. He’s so interesting. And he’s so genuine, like a genuine guy.”
“And you know, I’m like ‘oh, you’re f**king just a super movie star famous guy, but you’re a f**king regular guy underneath all that craziness.”
Interestingly, Matthew McConaughey and Rogan are neighbors.
Similarly, Rogan was of the opinion that Robert Downey Jr. too was a great guy. He said, “Robert Downey Jr. is another one. F**king great guy, man. Sit and talk to him. Robert Downey Jr. is interesting too because that’s a guy who went to jail.”
