He began watching UFC 11 years ago at UFC 117 when Chael Sonnen went to war against the middleweight GOAT Anderson Silva.

Joe Rogan is a man who always understands the assignment. Built like a fighter, he is one of the most in-shape 54-year-olds in the world. Being in the MMA scene for decades together, Joe Rogan has pieced together an incredible career that is still going strong. Some people don’t know the fact that Rogan is a legit fighter himself. He’s been involved in the world of MMA for a lot longer than some people know. A former four-time Taekwondo champion from Massachusetts, Rogan is a specialist when it comes to the art of Taekwondo and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. A relatively rare clip of Rogan [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/joe-rogan/] in his Taekwondo days is a treat for fans that haven’t seen it. Known to have a lethal spinning back kick, Rogan knocked out his opponent with the very same move back in 1987. Take a look at the amazing knockout in the video above. WHAT MARTIAL ART FORMS DOES JOE ROGAN SPECIALIZE IN? Joe Rogan might have been a Taekwondo champion years before, but what martial art forms does he focus on currently? The 54-year-old is not a professional fighter but indeed does train like one. With intense workouts and recovery sessions, Joe Rogan also makes MMA training a staple in his everyday routine. WATCH THIS STORY – Conor McGregor’s Super-Human Body Transformation After The Horrific Injury At UFC 264 [https://www.essentiallysports.com/stories/mma-ufc-news-conor-mcgregors-super-human-body-transformation-after-the-horrific-injury-at-ufc-264/] Holding black belts in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, he focuses a lot on BJJ and Muay Thai. These two art forms largely help supplement his already existing Taekwondo knowledge. He regularly spars with big names in MMA. In the video above, you can clearly see Joe Rogan showcasing his BJJ skills to TJ Dillashaw [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/t-j-dillashaw/], the former two-time UFC [https://www.ufc.com/] Bantamweight champion. During a sparring session with 8-time Muay Thai world champion Liam Harrison, Rogan proceeded to drop him [https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-mma-news-ufc-commentator-joe-rogan-drops-8-time-muay-thai-champion-liam-harrison-during-sparring-session/]. Albeit it was sparring, no easy feat nonetheless. CAN JOE ROGAN EVER COME TO THE UFC OCTAGON? Despite being a highly active individual, Rogan ever gracing the octagon ring for a professional fight is very unlikely. The man makes more than most fighters in the promotion and is practically set for life. [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Joe-Rogan-Training.jpg] With a really busy schedule of The Joe Rogan Experience and UFC commentating, it might be illogical for Rogan to step out of that bubble and compete. His age is the primary factor in play, making it irrational for him to compete. Perhaps a celebrity exhibition of BJJ match might seem plausible. Also Read: Why Is Joe Rogan So Important to the UFC? [https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-news-why-is-joe-rogan-so-important-to-the-ufc/] Lauded as the best UFC commentator, Rogan does it all. A true fight specialist through and through. 

Some people only know Joe Rogan as a UFC commentator and a podcast host. Here's
a clip of him knocking an opponent out in a tournament.

Rohit Raj is a UFC writer at EssentiallySports. As a Business student, Rohit’s
love for the UFC was double-sided with the business of it being just as
intriguing as the martial arts aspect of it. “Don't just fight, perform” is a
quote that he believes drives the most entertaining fights of the UFC, with the
likes of Conor McGregor, Chael Sonnen, and Israel Adesanya sweeping him off his
feet with their skill as well as swagger and trash talk capabilities. Rohit has
a black belt in Karate, having participated in state-level championships. He
loves to play soccer and go to the gym regularly. Rohit, a dedicated cinephile,
theater actor, and filmmaker, also enjoys dancing in underground street cyphers
every once in a while.

<h2 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc" style="text-align: center"><b>Joe Rogan: Net Worth 2024, JRE Podcast, Wife, and Spotify Deal</b></h2>
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Who is Joe Rogan?</b></h2>
We know Joe Rogan as a man with many talents - <em>"stand up comic, mixed martial arts fanatic, psychedelic adventurer, host of the joe rogan experience podcast."Â </em>The 56-year-old initially rose to fame as a stand-up comedian, with a comedy career spanning over two decades.Â  A staple for American television, Rogan has done it all, from hosting popular TV shows to becoming the voice of UFC, and now hosts a million-dollar podcast.

His passion for MMA sprung from practicing the sport since he was 13 years old, and by age 19, he secured the US Open Tae Kwon Do Championship. Now he retains significant power in the sport's biggest promotion and has been an integral part of UFC fights, be it in the arena or through The JRE: Fight Companion, outside. So here's a detailed peek at the color commentator's life and achievements.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Joe Rogan's</b> e<b>arly life</b></h2>
Joe Rogan was born and brought up in Newark, New Jersey. He was raised in a family with Irish and Italian roots and went to Newton South High School in Massachusetts. He did not pursue higher education and dropped out of the University of Massachusetts, Boston.

The MMA analyst got his start in martial arts as a way to gain self-confidence and learn how to defend himself. Joe Rogan began karate at the age of 14, then taekwondo a year later. He won the lightweight division of the US Open Taekwondo Championship when he was 19 years old, and he later won the full-contact state title in Massachusetts and went on to attain the Grand championship, beating both the middle and heavyweight title holders.

Over the years, Joe Rogan has learned several martial arts, including Taekwondo, Boxing, Kickboxing, Wrestling, and Jiu-Jitsu, and practices yoga and lifts weights to complement his training. He is a black belt under Eddie Bravo's 10th Planet Jiu-Jitsu, a style of no-gi Brazilian jiu-jitsu, and a black belt in gi Brazilian jiu-jitsu under Jean Jacques Machado.

Rogan's mother is Susan Lembo. His father, Joseph Rogan, was a police officer in Newark and also an amateur boxer. However, his parents divorced when he was young,Â <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-mma-news-joe-rogan-once-made-an-outrageous-confession-about-his-parents-when-their-mother-is-experiencing-violence-from-the-father/" target="_self" rel="noopener">and his father left the family</a>.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Joe Rogan's wife and kids</b></h2>
Joe Rogan's wifeÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-mma-news-what-does-joe-rogans-wife-jessica-ditzel-do-for-a-living-is-she-the-producer-of-the-simpsons-jessica-schimmel/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Jessica Ditzel is a multi-talented individual</a>. In 2010, she worked as a model for M Model Management before transitioning to Rent-A-Car as an assistant manager. She has had positions as an account executive for California-based Robert Half Technology and a product analyst for Volvo Motorsports.

</div>
Joe Rogan and Ditzel met in 2001 at a bar in Los Angeles where Ditzel was working as a cocktail waitress. Rogan became a regular customer, frequently visiting the bar until they started seeing each other shortly after. The couple dated for eight years before getting married in 2009.

The couple has three daughters, Kayja Rose Connor, Lola Rogan, and Rosy Rogan.Â <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-mma-news-is-joe-rogans-wife-jessica-ditzels-firstborn-the-daughter-of-famous-singer-dino/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Joe Rogan is also the step-father to Ditzel's firstborn daughter</a>, Kayja Rose Connor, whom he legally adopted in 2009 from her former relationship with the late singer Keven 'Dino' Conner.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Joe Rogan net worth 2024</b></h2>
Over the years, Joe Rogan has tried his hand in various fields, which has led him to become a fan-favorite UFC commentator. He secured a multi-million deal with Spotify for his podcast, and as of January 2024, he holds a net worth of about $200 million.

Rogan's podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience has become one of the most popular podcasts in the world, with millions of listeners and subscribers.

His connection with the UFC dates back to 1997 when he did his first 12 events for free. But over 25 years later, he continues to commentate for the promotion and is paid well for it. It is estimated that he earns around $50,000 per event.

</figcaption></figure>
His comedy career also bloomed over the years. Prior to the pandemic, Joe Rogan performed at approximately 4 venues per month, with an average theater capacity of 15,000 seats and an average ticket price of $60. With an estimated capacity of 80%, the calculation would show 4 venues x 15,000 seats x $60/ticket x 80% capacity x 50% cut x 12 months = $17.3 million per year. Additionally, he has released 6 comedy specials, some of which can be found on Netflix, and is estimated to have earned approximately $5 million for his Netflix special.

Joe Rogan is a co-owner of the health and wellness company 'Onnit', which provides supplements, food, and unique fitness equipment. In 2017, Onnit generated around $28 million in annual revenue, and today it is estimated to be close to $50 million per year.

Rogan receives income from multiple sources through his podcast, 'The Joe Rogan Experience'. He is paid by Spotify, podcast sponsors, and YouTube. The podcast is estimated to have around 200 million downloads per month, which calculates to 200 million downloads per year / 1000 CPM x $20 x 12 months = $48 million per year from podcast sponsors. He is estimated to have 130 million views on YouTube, and with YouTube's CPM, 130 million views per month / 1000 RPM x $4 = $520,000 per month from YouTube Adsense.

Hence, the UFC commentator has an estimated yearly revenue of $110,520,000 from various sources such as UFC commentating ($2 million), comedy shows ($23 million), Onnit ($2 million), Spotify ($30 million), podcast sponsors ($48 million), and YouTube Adsense ($6.2 million).

And with the renewal of his podcast deal with Spotify for a whopping $250 million, it looks like the numbers are going to change for good. He further no longer has the exclusivity clause, which gives him access to other platforms such as YouTube, Amazon Music, and Apple Podcasts, meaning he would be generating more revenue from them.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Joe Rogan's professional career and highlights</b></h2>
Joe Rogan has had a multifaceted career in entertainment, starting with his acting career in the 1990s. He played Frank Valente in 'Hardball' in 1994 and later Joe Garrelli in 'NewsRadio' from 1995 to 1999. He also had guest appearances on several TV shows such as 'Good Morning Miami', 'Just Shoot Me' and 'Silicon Valley'.

Besides acting, Rogan began his stand-up career in 1988 at the Boston-area Stitches comic club and went on to make a name for himself in the comedy world. He appeared on TV shows such as 'Fear Factor', 'The Man Show', 'MADtv', and 'Game Show in My Head'- an American reality talent show.

Rogan's commentary career in the UFC began in 1997 and he has since become a well-known interviewer and color commentator for the sport. He hosted 'Fear Factor' in 2001, and 'Late Friday' from 2001 to 2002. In 2009, he launched his podcast, 'The Joe Rogan Experience', which has become one of the most popular podcasts.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>What businesses does Joe Rogan own?</b></h2>

One of his most significant business ventures is his partnership with the health and wellness company 'Onnit'. He is an advocate for their products and often mentions them on his podcast.

Apart from this, in collaboration with Higher Primate, who are also sponsors to his famous podcast, Rogan sells exclusive merch that surely doesn't hurt his increasing bank.

Rogan also created 'Mothership,' a safe space for comics around the world. This comedy club is nestled in Austin, Texas and it endorses free speech and anti-cancel culture. Rogan made it abundantly clear, as he jokingly stated, <em>"You can't fire me from my own club!"</em>
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Joe Rogan's assets and car collection</b></h2>

He is estimated to have 130 million views on YouTube, and with YouTube&#8217;s CPM, 130 million views per month / 1000 RPM x $4 = $520,000 per month from YouTube Adsense. Hence, the UFC commentator has an estimated yearly revenue of $110,520,000 from various sources such as UFC commentating ($2 million), comedy shows ($23 million), Onnit ($2 million), Spotify ($30 million), podcast sponsors ($48 million), and YouTube Adsense ($6.2 million). And with the renewal of his podcast deal with Spotify for a whopping $250 million, it looks like the numbers are going to change for good. He further no longer has the exclusivity clause, which gives him access to other platforms such as YouTube, Amazon Music, and Apple Podcasts, meaning he would be generating more revenue from them.
