Aside from having one of the most popular podcasts on the planet, and being a famous UFC color commentator, Joe Rogan is famous for his controversial views on drugs. If it would be up to him, we would be able to buy drugs of our choice in a local store.
Joe Rogan never backed down from sharing his experiences with various drugs, including weed and LSD. When he speaks about it is like he is speaking of something about which he is very passionate. As such, people label him as someone who is pro-drugs. The public sees him as someone who doesn’t hesitate to take drugs whenever he has an opportunity. However, the case is not like it seems. In a recent episode of his podcast, ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’, the UFC color commentator revealed that he is not a fan of cocaine.
Pro-Drugs Joe Rogan Confesses Why He Is Not A Fan Of Cocaine
Joe Rogan hosted one of his friends, the ‘Rolling Stone’ co-founder Jann Wenner. The pair discussed and got into various topics, amongst which, as usual –drugs, their use, and the consequences. They spoke about the number of people that are daily struggling with their drug addiction, and pointed out that once a person gets into that downward spiral it is very hard to get out of it. The conclusion – stay away from the ‘wrong’ drugs.
“When I was in high school, a good friend of mine, his cousin was selling coke. And I watched him deteriorate rapidly.” – the podcaster revealed to his guest. “He was doing coke everyday and he was selling it. Him and his girlfriend had an addict apartment, and they would hide in this apartment. I went to visit him once, and I knew him before he did coke, and I knew him after. It was like a vampire bit him.”
As a person who is prone to experiencing with various substances, it is strange that he keeps away from cocaine. Cocaine is one of the first drug of choice for many. However, for Joe Rogan, the first drug of choice would be psychedelics.
“The things I love most about psychedelics. Just by existing, it informs me that all of my notions about reality itself are bulls**t. And I live in this sort of confined, restrained, narrow carved pathway world. ‘Cause that’s where I live all the time.”– Joe Rogan once told Jordan Peterson. “But then you have a psychedelic experience and BOOM, all that disappears.”
