We've got Theo Vaughn responding to comments that Joe Rogan made about him on a recent podcast.

0:05.8

I want to break down what Theo had to say.

0:08.5

But first, I'm going to play Joe Rogan.

0:10.5

He's kind of feigning concern.

0:12.2

Now, like, it's one thing to be concerned about your buddy.

0:15.0

But to air that out on a podcast that millions of people watch, kind of messed up of Joe Rogan.

0:20.9

This could be the moment where he's flying too close to the sun.

0:24.1

Some people are saying he shouldn't be able to recover from this.

0:27.4

Have a listen to what he had to say.

0:28.8

Theo Vaughn's going through the exact same thing.

0:31.0

And last time he was on the podcast, he was explaining it to me.

0:33.7

It freaks me out because I know Theo's had conversations before, like, even publicly.

0:40.2

He had a Netflix taping, and it didn't go well. It was like they actually never, they shelved it.

0:47.5

They never used it. You know, there was all these stories from people that were there saying he bombed.

0:52.0

Listen, Joe Rogan knows a thing or two about bombing. Most people don't even know what he does on stage is stand-up. But for Theo Vaughn to go through what he went through and then Joe Rogan bring it up like this, look, of course, Joe Rogan's doing his podcast making a ton of money here. So I'm going to share what Theo had to say, but a complete mischaracterizing. And by the way, the reason why I think

1:12.8

Theo's so frustrated is because he's got something Joe Rogan doesn't have, empathy. He has empathy for those

1:19.3

innocent lives that are being lost due to the senseless war and all of these issues that are going on.

1:24.1

I'm going to play the clip of Joe Rogan saying, hey, man, you just need to chill out.

1:45.9

Easy for you to say a hundred millionaire who's built a comedy club where he can surround himself with yes men. I mean, listen, as a stand-up comedian, like you want to have, you know, you want to have this sort of like union of comedians where you're like, hey, you know, there's certain unwritten rules, you're not just going to randomly talk trash about someone else. But here's Rogan using his platform to really pull down somebody else for having valid concerns. I think he just had kind of a breakdown. And when he was talking to the crowd and there's a video of it, we said, you know, the people were shaking. Hey, we still love you. Thank you. Look, I'm just, I'm trying not to not to take my own life. That's what I'm trying to do right now. I'll share what he had to say,

2:19.2

not exactly. And like, you hear stuff like that and you just go like, oh, Jesus Christ, I've known too many people that I didn't think we're going to kill themselves and then did. And then He goes down these spirals where he starts talking about world events and freaking out.

2:20.4

I'm like, oh, Jesus Christ.

2:19.3

Like, I, Jesus Christ.
