Joe Rogan explains how JRE Podcast \u201caccidentally\u201d became the biggest thing he\u2019s done YouTube: PowerfulJREPopular podcaster Joe Rogan has revealed the chain of events that led him to \u201caccidentally\u201d starting up the JRE podcast, calling it \u201cthe biggest thing that I ever did.\u201d Joe Rogan has become one of the most popular personalities on the internet with his Joe Rogan Experience podcast, in which he has hosted a series of huge celebrities such as Kanye West and Elon Musk. The podcast has been running for over a decade now, and in that period of time he has amassed over 10 million subscribers on the show\u2019s YouTube channel. There was some controversy when it was announced in May 2020 that the JRE podcast would be moving exclusively to Spotify. Up until recently, the podcast episodes appeared in full on YouTube, but now the full episodes can only be accessed via Spotify. Despite this, the star maintains a huge online presence and has experienced a huge amount of success with the podcast. But as Joe himself explains in episode 1600, it hadn\u2019t always been his intention to end up doing podcasting. \u201cI got a slow drip, of fame,\u201d he said, \u201cand that\u2019s one of the things that helped me. I got on television for the first time in the early nineties, with doing stand-up comedy.\u201d While some may think other aspects of his career to be more significant, Rogan seems to see his past achievements as stepping stones towards this podcast. \u201cThen it led to a sitcom, then led to Fear Factor and the UFC and all those different things, and ultimately, it accidentally led to the biggest thing I ever did \u2013 which was this.\u201d Topic starts at 2:45 His answer may have surprised some listeners, including guest Lex Fridman, who asked, \u201cis this the biggest thing you ever did?\u201d Rogan replied, \u201coh, by far. By magnitudes. Massive, giant numbers of magnitudes different than anything I\u2019ve ever done.\u201d His success with the podcast has certainly been impressive, and it seems that even Joe Rogan himself didn\u2019t expect it to be as big of a hit as it has been.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
