Joe Rogan revealed that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy had expressed interest in appearing on his podcast to discuss the Russian invasion. Both his guests and audience were shocked when the story surfaced during the Thanksgiving episode of The Joe Rogan Experience. Rogan did not say if he turned down the request or if the engagement was canceled due to scheduling issues.
Podcast RevelationDuring a conversation on the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, Rogan disclosed the facts. “They tried to get Zelenskyy on,” Rogan said nonchalantly, to the amazement of his guests, podcasters Shane Gillis, Mark Normand, and Ari Shaffir. He did not elaborate on Zelenskyy's request, but he gave a brief description of how visitors are often selected.
As he attacked Zelenskyy for Ukraine's use of American-made weapons against Russia, Rogan made his admission. "You people are about to start World War III," he said, expressing fears that increasing military action may spark a worldwide catastrophe. Klitschko’s ResponseBoth Ukrainian civilians and politicians criticized the remarks.
In a video that was shared on Twitter, former heavyweight boxing champion Wladimir Klitschko took aim at Rogan. Klitschko charged Rogan of undermining democratic ideals and repeating Russian misinformation. Klitschko said that Putin's Russia wished to covertly destroy Ukraine.
"You're employing propaganda, which is the only tool Putin actually uses." Important players in Ukraine's fight against Russia have been Wladimir and his brother, Vitali Klitschko. During the first invasion, Vitali, who has been the mayor of Kyiv since 2014, accompanied his brother in the Ukrainian military.
In addition, the brothers have raised more than $105 million for military and humanitarian aid. Rogan’s Shifting StanceRogan has recently been increasingly outspoken about his support for Donald Trump. He said that unfavorable opinions of Trump were the consequence of a "massive media psy-op" on the same radio program.
Though he offered no proof, he asserted that this purported operation impacted popular perception of Trump. "That's how most people think. They've been told stories," Rogan said.
Rogan made hints about recording a podcast from Trump's Florida property, Mar-a-Lago. His past hesitation to leave his Texas studio to interview Vice President Kamala Harris stood in stark contrast to this revelation.
