A popular and sometimes contentious media personality Joe Rogan has generated an array of discussions. Enhanced Games recently shared a reel featuring Joe Rogan and Craig Jones. The American commentator’s recent discussion with Craig Jones has raised awareness of this athletic event. The goal of the 2025 Enhanced Games is to provide athletes the freedom to utilize performance-enhancing substances without worrying about losing their disqualification.
Enhanced Games shared the video in which Rogan talked with Jones about the event. “Have you heard of the Enhanced Games?” asks Rogan in the video, to which Jones responds, “Oh yeah, I was reading about that.” This little conversation sets the groundwork for a more thorough examination of the idea and consequences of the enhanced games. Joe Rogan voiced his opinions about the Enhanced Games without holding back. “I’m having those going on,” he said. Rogan explained the concept of the Enhanced Games where players will deliver an optimal effort. However, Scientifically, that is feasible. The 56-year-old stated, “So, the Enhanced Games, they’re going to allow all the athletes to take performance-enhancing drugs. And that the idea is like we should have athletes perform to the best way that’s scientifically possible.”
Joe Rogan made his argument with a particular example. “Here’s a, for instance, like this, uh, Ryan Garcia fight,” he said, referencing a recent fight involving Garcia. “You know, Ryan Garcia, he beats, uh, Devin Haney. Spectacular fashion. Looks amazing,” he noted. Next, Rogan explains the use of drugs Ryan Garcia did to ‘enhance’ his play further noting, “Pops for ostarine, very low doses of ostarine, which are not going to affect him in terms of performance-enhancing ability during the fight itself.” Moreover, Rogan was not sure how Garcia took the supplement, “I don’t know how he took it or what he took,” he added.

Furthermore, Joe Rogan also brought up the subject of contaminated supplements, quoting UFC fighter Sean O’Malley reportedly saying, “I know people have gotten ostarine accidentally, like Suga Sean O’Malley got it through tainted supplements.” These acts have occurred multiple times, Rogan said, “They proved it. It’s more than once that’s happened.”
Australian entrepreneur Aron D’Souza leads the audacious and contentious Enhanced Games idea. Competitors in this global sporting event scheduled for 2025 will not be subject to drug testing. This strategy goes against the conventional wisdom on performance-enhancing drugs in sports, which has historically been to forbid their usage owing to worries about safety and equity.
The Enhanced Games as “the future of sports”?
The sporting sector has primarily responded negatively to the concept of Enhanced Games. Some who oppose this strategy claim that it could promote risky behavior and compromise the fairness of sports. The risks to safety and moral ramifications of normalizing the consumption of drugs in sports have been brought up by commentators.

Notwithstanding the criticism, Aron D’Souza stands by his idea, referring to the Enhanced Games as “the future of sports.” He thinks that lifting the ban on performance-enhancing substances might result in breakthroughs in sports science and new records in athletics. “Ultimately, we have one shot to do this right,” D’Souza said in a recent interview with Fox News Digital, highlighting the value of the undertaking. He reiterated the possible repercussions, saying that any health issues might not only cripple their movement but also obstruct the societal change they are trying to promote.
Moreover, D’Souza noted, “What we are doing is heavily destigmatizing performance enhancements,” outlining their larger goal. He thinks that their work will lead to improvements in longevity and anti-aging technologies, along with developments in performance medicine. D’Souza acknowledged that they are under constant scrutiny and said, “We know the world’s eyes are on us – we have to do this right.” He underlined not only the future of the Olympics but also the great hopes and possible advantages. Even with clarifications, the discussion over the Enhanced Games is probably going to get hotter as the 2025 event gets closer.
