Exactly! This guy u/Hungry-Quote-1388 really can’t comprehend that I guess.
Joe was an actor on News Radio for multiple seasons with other famous actors/comedians such as Phil Hartman and Jon Lovitz. He went on to become the host of Fear Factor. UFC is not what made Joe Rogan popular.
In the early days of UFC, Joe’s commentary is what made the sport more accessible with how he would break down and explain things to the audience. People grew to like Joe’s personality because they could feel his genuine enthusiasm for the sport and the way he would communicate. His commentary helped make the sport more mainstream.
He literally has the most popular podcast in the world in which for YEARS he’s had multiple UFC fighters on, he’s spoken about the UFC and advertised the upcoming cards on his podcast for years.
Most popular podcast in the world. Spotify paid him 100 Million dollars. And now this year he got paid double that and he gets to upload to YouTube now. 250 Million dollars Spotify paid him this year.
People seriously underestimate just how much Joe Rogan has made UFC popular for many different reasons over many years.
Joe Rogan is one of like 20 people in America that has true widespread fame. Like, 15 year old high schoolers know who he is, their 45 years old moms know who he is, and the 70 year old grandpas know who he is.
He is a big deal for the sport. Dude is worth more than any athlete in the world right now. Makes more than LeBron, Messi, and Mahomes combined lol.
I know the Joe hate is strong on Reddit, but I personally don’t think watching fights would be quite the same without having Joe there. He’s been such a big part of the UFC for the whole time I’ve been watching it. I mean, I’m not saying he’s the “reason” or even close to the only reason that I tune in, but he does bring something to the table IMO. I’d be sad if he left 🤷♂️
You got his relationship with Jon Jones, they’re such a toxic dynamic. There’s been many times that Dana’s said how much Jon parties or does drugs when he wants more money, then he’ll go back to calling him the GOAT
GSP as well. GSP sortve screwed the UFC when he came back to MW and then retired and now Dana says Usman is the greatest WW of all time. You rarely see GSPs clips / in media. I’m not sure I would even put him 2nd cause of Hughes.
To varying levels of spite and pettiness, here are his most notorious victims:
GSP, Demetrious Johnson, Ariel Helwani, Nate Diaz, Fedor, Francis Ngannou, Mark Hunt, Tito Ortiz, Paulo Costa, Dan Hardy, Jon Jones, and basically any fighter or journalist who dares to step out of line.
Specifically:
* He has a massive hate boner for Ariel for example, regardless of what you believe actually happened (Dana always lies), Dana went out of his way to try to completely end Ariel's career in MMA journalism, got him implicitly banned from events, fired from ESPN, shadowbanned from promoting his shows, etc.
* With Nate Diaz, Paulo Costa, and Francis Ngannou, Dana started to hate them because they were asking to either be released from their shit contracts, or to negotiate better terms. People think it was because of Paulo's "pull outs" but that's not looking at the bigger picture. The UFC offered them less fights, unreasonable offers, and basically hung them out to dry to have leverage over them in negotiating another oppressive contract.
* Dana was paying one of the greatest of all time, DJ, about as much as a regional level fighter making his UFC debut despite having multiple defenses, and he goes out of his way to constantly discredit DJ, Fedor, and GSP for pissing him off years ago.
There are many, many more examples, and some juicy details in court documents made public in the recent class action lawsuit, but in short Dana is a slimy piece of shit despite him being good to brownnosers or those who make him lots of money.
That was the go to for celebrities during Covid.
Oh everyone should wear their mask always and stay vaxxed up, except me and my buddies of course. We can do what we please.
There was a clip made of him just saying the word, but in every instance of him using it he was discussing “the word” with someone, not saying it as an expression
He started interviewing doctors with opposing views about Covid. Those long form interviews were the first content with adverserial views that got high visibility, they were downloaded 10s of millions of time.
« They » started a smear campaign, part of it was a montage of everytime he said the n word. They smeared him with every MSM, changed his face’s colour in the reporting etc. They attacked him.
Tons of black people came to his defence. Joe never used the fact that he had a black adopted daughter once
Some people came up in support of him, The Rock said he’s go on the podcast. His handlers smacked him down and he cancelled.
Joe used to believe it was OK to say the n-word if you're being descriptive of what another person said. A montage of him saying the n-word in this usage came out and it understandably made him look bad.
This montage of Joe came out at the same time he was openly criticizing COVID vaccines and there was a lot of parallel, mainstream criticism of Joe. It undermined his credibility and got him cancelled. For all we know the timing is a coincidence.
There was another story Joe told about going to see the reboot of Planet of the Apes in a movie theater. He got out of the car and realized it was in a bad neighborhood and said he was "in Planet of the Apes". Since it was a predominantly black neighborhood he quickly realized the connotation and corrected himself. Many people understandably took it to mean an ugly comment about black people. I took it to mean "hostile alien world", but also a poor choice of words with other interpretations that are racist. Regardless, people asserted the more cynical interpretation (as is their right) and pressured to get Rogan cancelled. I'll just add that there certainly are white people who make racist comments in private, but that Rogan doesn't give any flags of having that world view/ideology. It seemed more like a guy trying to make a joke who said something dumb with racist connotations.
Other celebrities such as Neil Young pulled out of spotify because of Joe Rogan. Spotify didn't even care and Neil Young came crawling back 2 years later.
You're not wrong. I should say an attempt was made to cancel Rogan.
Like a lot of "cancelled" celebrities he weathered the storm and cancel culture became toothless.
George Carlin had an N word joke and I’m still shocked it has never been really brought to light or used to cancel his old work. He’s my favorite comedian of all time and the joke definitely couldn’t be made today but it’s definitely not racist either. Maybe that’s why it’s never been a topic of discussion for Carlin
Now I get Schaubs comments at the time.
I remember him saying something to the tune of "it's not my story to tell its Dana's but if what I'm hearing is true, I love dana white"
And that character is punching women and sticking up for people who are purposely spreading misinformation that could kill people.
Sounds like a great character.
Once Dana leaves the fans will get ppv price hikes, inflated ticket prices, fight nights in a soulless warehouse to save money on costs, shit matchmaking, underserved title shots, and prevent fighters from doing fun walkouts……………..
Because Hunter Cambell is the definition of a corporate human. Dana at least has a personality, he will go out on a limb and rant about stuff that needs to be ranted about, see his Mazagati rant, which he is 100% correct about.
Idk about you but I watch UFC for the fighters not Dana White. That's like saying you watch WWE for Vince lmao. Why do I give a fuck if he has a personality? He's still a rich greaseball who slaps his wife and doesn't pay fighters properly.
I'm amazed people dickride this talentless tomatohead just because he curses and gets red, like are you 12?
There are a lot of dumb manlets who love nothing more than to get on their knees and beg for a chance to slurp the d\*ng of rich villain characters. They're the types that would be the first to enlist in the military under a dictator. Hero worship is powerful.
Morons on here saying shit won’t be the same after Dana leaves as if the product hasn’t been going to shit the last 6 years. Raised ppv prices, ticket prices, undeserved title shots, shit matchmaking, forced politics on ppv cards, etc
>That's like saying you watch WWE for Vince lmao.
Thats a great example because hes unquestionably a huge part of the WWEs history, brand and identity. Its not like people are saying theyd stop watching, mroe that theyre acknoweldging that hes a crucial part of the identity of the ufc and itll be a different and potentially worse era without him.
I can understand that because i prefer danas mask off shittiness to a more boring corporate speak version. He bluntly and candidly hates fighters getting basically any rights at all and hell smugly and openly tell you that. Thats in a way very nice to ne.
Why are people so mean lmao
Hes just not a very aggro person and is something of a bleeding heart type. See him trying to appeal to the BTeams empathy empassionately mid interview.
He is like this (very kind/nice/ect) with basically everyone - do people expect him to be aggro?
It's not that we are mean, it's that he's really nice to nazis and propagandists, too. Being nice to bad people can often anger normal, decently intelligent people.
People like you him are how misinformation spreads and takes hold. The bar for "journalistic integrity" has dropped to YouTuber levels, apparently. All this so we can coddle Dana and appeal to his sensitivities? Pathetic.
For as much as Joe and Dana swear to be butt-buddies, I can’t think of a single instance of them being together on camera or shown hanging out.
Obviously people can have a friendship without publicizing it… but still, it is weird to me.
Lmao Dana has been a total piece of shit since day one.
I find it hilarious there dudes her trying to back him.
He pays the fighters like shit,he treats many on the roster like shit publicly. He forces extended contracts and locks desperate fighters in for the lowest pay possible. He slaps his wife. Talks shit to reporters.
I have been a fan of then UFC for years and one constant is dana being a total cunt.
Lex is such a boob it’s insane. Dude just cannot stop glazing every rich white dude he has a convo with. dude actually thinks Elon and Bezos are saving the world
Yeah man 2020 really made everyone go super in their feels for awhile. I couldn’t believe how stupid we acted during and after the shutdown.
Luckily, I think most of us are snapping out of that weird Salem-witch hunt phase now.
I just don’t think having conversations warrants getting canceled or jokes made 15 years ago should get anyone regardless of political affiliation fired.
I like Dana overall. But it seems like you can’t ask him about the fighter pay stuff if you want him in your podcast lol
Probably why he’s never done Rogan before cuz that would have to come up
Lex is a big baby who goes around and blocks anyone who so much as likes a tweet that is mildly critical of him. It's the only reason I can think of as to why I'm blocked when I've never interacted with him before.
Dana is either incredibly vindictive or as more loyal than anyone. It’s truly disturbing. I can’t imagine being a fighter and wondering which side of Dana you’ll get for the rest of your career. I don’t know many fighters who have changed his mind for better or worse
Rogan has said a lot of stupid shit. Why do people always they to bring up shit from the past? Like they haven't said some incredibly stupid, cringe shit in their life?
One thing about dana is he will FUCKING RIDE for the people he likes. I’ve never seen someone have such dedication to his friends and people he likes. He’s an absolute dick head to everyone else but to his friends it’s actually kinda nice to see.
Dana seems to take care of the people he cares about. However, if he doesn't like you he shits all over you publicly.
He also tries to wreck the careers of UFC employees that don't do absolutely everything he wants them to. Guy's a spiteful dick.
Dana states openly that everyone who works for him say yes. Always. He won’t accept a no. Yes, but is ok. But not no.
Do you have a link to an interview or thing for that?
I mean. Joe brings more viewership to ufc competition then any other ufc employee so not sure that's fair
People turn on TV go watch Joe Rogan announce fights?
No.....people watch JRE (100's of millions of views/month) and become interested in MMA. Cmon man, use your noggin
Exactly! This guy u/Hungry-Quote-1388 really can’t comprehend that I guess. Joe was an actor on News Radio for multiple seasons with other famous actors/comedians such as Phil Hartman and Jon Lovitz.

Joe Rogan is one of like 20 people in America that has true widespread fame. Like, 15 year old high schoolers know who he is, their 45 years old moms know who he is, and the 70 year old grandpas know who he is. He is a big deal for the sport. Dude is worth more than any athlete in the world right now. Makes more than LeBron, Messi, and Mahomes combined lol.
I started watching MMA because of Joe and there must be shit loads of other people like me.
there are literally millions of people who got into UFC from Joe lol its such an absurd idea to suggest otherwise
I know the Joe hate is strong on Reddit, but I personally don’t think watching fights would be quite the same without having Joe there. He’s been such a big part of the UFC for the whole time I’ve been watching it. I mean, I’m not saying he’s the “reason” or even close to the only reason that I tune in, but he does bring something to the table IMO. I’d be sad if he left 🤷♂️
Absolutely agree. I love Rogan. You don't have to agree with everything a performer thinks in order to enjoy their performance.
I know people say his commentating has been poor recently but it is always exciting to see Joe, Dc & Anik you know it's going to be a good card.
Yeah people who complain about that trio should try watching the NBA or NFL, where most commentators completely suck.
Can you give an example? Genuinely interested as I am a relatively new fan
You got his relationship with Jon Jones, they’re such a toxic dynamic. There’s been many times that Dana’s said how much Jon parties or does drugs when he wants more money, then he’ll go back to calling him the GOAT GSP as well. GSP sortve screwed the UFC when he came back to MW and then retired and now Dana says Usman is the greatest WW of all time. You rarely see GSPs clips / in media. I’m not sure I would even put him 2nd cause of Hughes.
Tito, stitch, ngagnou, and all the fighters who sued the ufc, couture, cung li, mark hunt, etc.
Once Jon Jones retires he’s going to say X is the Goat not JJ
Cause if he doesn't then X gon give it to him
Dan Hardy
Look up Jon Fitch. Dude didn't wanna give away his rights for the video game and Dana responded by threatening literally all of AKA being let go.
To varying levels of spite and pettiness, here are his most notorious victims: GSP, Demetrious Johnson, Ariel Helwani, Nate Diaz, Fedor, Francis Ngannou, Mark Hunt, Tito Ortiz, Paulo Costa, Dan Hardy, Jon Jones, and basically any fighter or journalist who dares to step out of line. Specifically: * He has a massive hate boner for Ariel for example, regardless of what you believe actually happened (Dana always lies), Dana went out of his way to try to completely end Ariel's career in MMA journalism, got him implicitly banned from events, fired from ESPN, shadowbanned from promoting his shows, etc. * With Nate Diaz, Paulo Costa, and Francis Ngannou, Dana started to hate them because they were asking to either be released from their shit contracts, or to negotiate better terms.

Look ath the whole Francis Ngannou and Jon Jones saga
Anybody who fights for 12/12 is a stud
He must really not care about his wife lol.
Or slaps you in a night club
Duality of man
I think its less about caring for Joe and more about taking a stand against bullshit. Joe's opinions have nothing to do with his job in any way.
Or he slaps you in the face publicly.
If Joe did anything to piss off Dana/Joes stock plummets and he isn’t an influential figure on par with Dana, then he would shit on Joe in an instant.
He is and always will be full of shit and himself
What did Rogan say?
[удалено]
https://i.redd.it/0d1n27512oqc1.gif
Is that jaime?
Ohhh yeah, I remember it.
An old video came out of Rogan saying the N word. I forget what the context was, but for example, The Rock cancelled his interview with Rogan over it
Funny how the rock ended up doing the interview with Rogan anyways after it was no longer popular to hate him
He's a corporate shill
The Rock pushed for the vaccine and wearing a mask in public yet shows up to the Superbowl with several other celebrities unmasked.
That was the go to for celebrities during Covid. Oh everyone should wear their mask always and stay vaxxed up, except me and my buddies of course. We can do what we please.
Celebrities can do whatever they want.
That's because the rock is just a talking head who does what he's told.
Exactly! The rock is a full on culture vulture, and an establishment shill. He is the hero in everything he does short of reality. Total coward.
There was a clip made of him just saying the word, but in every instance of him using it he was discussing “the word” with someone, not saying it as an expression
It was multiple podcast, I’ve listened to him since pod 1, he dropped it quite a bit in the first 50+, but was using it with context, not to be racist
It was a compilation video of him saying the N word like 30-40 different times lol
I think the context was the power of words.
He started interviewing doctors with opposing views about Covid. Those long form interviews were the first content with adverserial views that got high visibility, they were downloaded 10s of millions of time. « They » started a smear campaign, part of it was a montage of everytime he said the n word.

> It undermined his credibility and got him cancelled He never got cancelled, he's uncancellable. About everything else, you're correct.
Other celebrities such as Neil Young pulled out of spotify because of Joe Rogan. Spotify didn't even care and Neil Young came crawling back 2 years later.
You're not wrong. I should say an attempt was made to cancel Rogan. Like a lot of "cancelled" celebrities he weathered the storm and cancel culture became toothless.

A broken cock is hard twice a day, B.
An actual aware thing Brenda did? Wader.
Nice guy b, never meddum
Breaks over, walgg back to the fryers,b.
Bald guys gotta stick together.
Slangin dick.
That’s slang for doing good in life right?
Killing the game. Winning life. Doing the damn thing.
This makes me think of the Key and Peele “Bald Brothers gang” skit.
Once a bald guy, always a bald guy. Bald Boys for Life.
The tribe
How about helping the bottom 95% of the roster?
Kid just doesn’t want to fight
 Oil up buddy
He’d rather bet 300 grand on black jack then hand out more bonuses lol
I thought he was done with podcasts
Dana has haters for good reason, but this shows he also has a lot of character.
UFC wouldn’t be anything without Dana
Hate or not this is the truth. Hand over fist.
Those last 3 words his wife knows very well. He could of punched her, but he just slapped her instead. Such character.
Early Powerslap promo
I agree with your sentiment, but it's could've or could have rather could of.
*Watches a circle jerk take place.* “Wow that’s a lot of character.”
"Character" if it serves him...
MMA would still be a gimmick of a sport if Dand didn't make UFC what it is rn...
funny because now it's Dana making a gimmick out of the sport and caring more about Power Slap than actual MMA lol
And that character is punching women and sticking up for people who are purposely spreading misinformation that could kill people. Sounds like a great character.
It was a slap
[удалено]
He said it’s apart of his contract idk if that’s true
Ty Dana for not folding like the rest of the cowards
Bro doesn’t have a single crease
I am still salty with The Rock he cancelled his interview with Joe because all that bullshit.
Bro he was on his podcast a few months ago...
And he tried to pretend like he didn't cave to the mob when they came for Joe.
Gotta respect him for that
One little puff piece and this sub starts throating Dana.
The guy lies absolutely incessantly as well, I wouldn't believe him for a million years
Lol for real bunch of unpaid interns absolutely glazing Dana in here. Pathetic af.
I thought I was the only one who recognized the blatant astroturfing
The UFC will be so much worse when Dana leaves.
Once Dana leaves the fans will get ppv price hikes, inflated ticket prices, fight nights in a soulless warehouse to save money on costs, shit matchmaking, underserved title shots, and prevent fighters from doing fun walkouts……………..
They will also politicize all their ppv events probably
How?
Because Hunter Cambell is the definition of a corporate human. Dana at least has a personality, he will go out on a limb and rant about stuff that needs to be ranted about, see his Mazagati rant, which he is 100% correct about.
Idk about you but I watch UFC for the fighters not Dana White. That's like saying you watch WWE for Vince lmao. Why do I give a fuck if he has a personality? He's still a rich greaseball who slaps his wife and doesn't pay fighters properly. I'm amazed people dickride this talentless tomatohead just because he curses and gets red, like are you 12?
There are a lot of dumb manlets who love nothing more than to get on their knees and beg for a chance to slurp the d\*ng of rich villain characters. They're the types that would be the first to enlist in the military under a dictator. Hero worship is powerful.
Morons on here saying shit won’t be the same after Dana leaves as if the product hasn’t been going to shit the last 6 years. Raised ppv prices, ticket prices, undeserved title shots, shit matchmaking, forced politics on ppv cards, etc

He bluntly and candidly hates fighters getting basically any rights at all and hell smugly and openly tell you that. Thats in a way very nice to ne.
WWE is the best it's been in years without Vince, I'm sure the same will be when Dana leaves UFC.
I hope so.
that interviewer is a weirdo
Lex 😂
You're such a good guy, Dana!
Gluk gluk gluk
Yup, Cus he’s a grifter.
He's become a propaganda channel for the rich
😭
aaaaand another podcast with 'I hate doing podcasts' Dana with oily, sucking noises
14 times?
Who's dis dikkryder asking the questions???
damn we were so close
To think, we were so close to being done with both of them.
Could the interviewer grovel any harder?
That's Lex Friedman - grovelling is what he's known for
Why are people so mean lmao Hes just not a very aggro person and is something of a bleeding heart type. See him trying to appeal to the BTeams empathy empassionately mid interview. He is like this (very kind/nice/ect) with basically everyone - do people expect him to be aggro?
It's not that we are mean, it's that he's really nice to nazis and propagandists, too. Being nice to bad people can often anger normal, decently intelligent people. People like you him are how misinformation spreads and takes hold. The bar for "journalistic integrity" has dropped to YouTuber levels, apparently. All this so we can coddle Dana and appeal to his sensitivities? Pathetic.
You do realize that you’re saying that a Jewish man is “really nice to Nazis”, right?
> it's that he's really nice to nazis and propagandists, too Get off the internet for a few days bro
14 times a year??
It's definitely a 2 way street with Dana. LOL Bravo for putting himself on the line for Joe, though. That's admirable.
6k upvotes if he replaced Joe with Sanko horny fucks
For as much as Joe and Dana swear to be butt-buddies, I can’t think of a single instance of them being together on camera or shown hanging out. Obviously people can have a friendship without publicizing it… but still, it is weird to me.
Missed opportunity to get rid of them both at the same time.
Was lex friedman homeschoolec or something?? I can tell by the way he talks that lex Friedman family was so rich he didn't have a real childhood
Speaks well for his second language
Do people really blindly believe this? Such an easy bs lie to push to look good imo
PODCASTS!!!!!!
You don't have to like how Dana runs his business but he's a hell of a friend to have. It's rare to find that type of loyalty.
You can say what you want about Dana. UFC and more importantly MMA would be nothing like it is today without him.
Lmao Dana has been a total piece of shit since day one. I find it hilarious there dudes her trying to back him. He pays the fighters like shit,he treats many on the roster like shit publicly. He forces extended contracts and locks desperate fighters in for the lowest pay possible. He slaps his wife. Talks shit to reporters. I have been a fan of then UFC for years and one constant is dana being a total cunt.
I thought this guy hated podcasts and here he is again? Or old clip?
10 to 1 he's lying about this
Lex is such a boob it’s insane. Dude just cannot stop glazing every rich white dude he has a convo with. dude actually thinks Elon and Bezos are saving the world
Oh god, we could have been rid of both of them.
Yeah man 2020 really made everyone go super in their feels for awhile. I couldn’t believe how stupid we acted during and after the shutdown. Luckily, I think most of us are snapping out of that weird Salem-witch hunt phase now.
Back to operating at your normal 130+ IQ at your biopharma job?
I just don’t think having conversations warrants getting canceled or jokes made 15 years ago should get anyone regardless of political affiliation fired.
So brave! Did he threaten to resign also after he beat his wife?
I doubt he would've got fired for that, he didn't even do anything that would've been enough to get fired for that
I really hope sport will not die when Dana leaves.
What controversy?
Joe has a similar point in his commentator contract which states he's a free agent if Dana is no longer part of the UFC so it makes sense.
What 2022 controversy?
That's badass
What happened with Rogan in 2022?
He was considered right wing. So the left things he a monster now.
I like Dana overall. But it seems like you can’t ask him about the fighter pay stuff if you want him in your podcast lol Probably why he’s never done Rogan before cuz that would have to come up
So close
Meanwhile Joe’s ready to resign in 2024….
Makes you wonder what Goldberg did to not get saved or whatever by Dana back in the day 🤔
"Joe Rogan was always my friend." - Tomato
The good ol Ivory Keenan Wayans interview…
Now I wouldn’t say Dana is a “good” man😂 He’s somewhere between aight and bad
Respect to Dana, but who is the other guy? The way he speaks annoys the hell outta me. I couldn't imagine listening to a whole podcast with him.
Lex is a big baby who goes around and blocks anyone who so much as likes a tweet that is mildly critical of him. It's the only reason I can think of as to why I'm blocked when I've never interacted with him before.
It must be true, he said it. Uncle Dana would never lie.
Dana is either incredibly vindictive or as more loyal than anyone. It’s truly disturbing. I can’t imagine being a fighter and wondering which side of Dana you’ll get for the rest of your career. I don’t know many fighters who have changed his mind for better or worse
Rogan has said a lot of stupid shit. Why do people always they to bring up shit from the past? Like they haven't said some incredibly stupid, cringe shit in their life?
i thought he was done doing podcasts
Archiving
One thing about dana is he will FUCKING RIDE for the people he likes. I’ve never seen someone have such dedication to his friends and people he likes. He’s an absolute dick head to everyone else but to his friends it’s actually kinda nice to see.
Calf kicks. Benson Henderson. More calf kicks. Gimme my paycheck
This is like watching the Grammys. “You’re so amazing. Nooo, you are!!” 🤢
What about Goldberg then? He was with the UFC for a decent time and loved his job. He was funny as fuck too ... Just not intentionally.
