Joe Rogan, the color commentator, TV host, comedian, and podcast host recently appeared as a guest in Jordan Peterson’s interview. Peterson is a clinical psychologist, professor, and acclaimed author who recently started his own podcasts. Rogan appeared in Peterson’s interview to talk about things that have impacted his life. When Peterson digs into Rogan’s ‘Fear Factor’ days as the TV host, it led to an unexpected emotional recollection.

He recalls his most memorable ‘Fear Factor’ moment involving a family in which a father and son were up again the mother and daughter. “There was this one time. There was this family. It was a father and son competing against a mother and a daughter. And the father and son were kind of jerks, which was part of the competition“, he said.  Fear Factor is a reality show in which individuals or teams would be posed a daring challenge that often proved risky, in order to win handsome rewards.

Joe Rogan remembered the unlikely win that had a hardened crew in tears

In this particular recollection, Rogan remembers: “Everybody thought that these jerks were gonna win and were kind of bummed out about it. But the woman and her child just rose to the occasion. I remember talking to them and firing them up, but I still didn’t know if they could do it.” The onlookers hoped helplessly for the mother-daughter duo expecting a loss. While the father-son duo trash-talked and sounded like they were going to win.

The result? The underdogs won. “They kept screwing up and they f*cked up because they’d kind of taken it for granted that they were gonna win,” recalled Rogan. He continued with amazement and relief, “The mother and daughter won.” He went on to add that a hardened crew who had been around for over 140 episodes of the most daring feats, cried that moment. “Everybody cried”, he said.

Rogan says he only cries “tears of joy”

When Peterson noticed Rogan wiping his tears of joy in recalling that fateful victory, he was happy. Happy that it was someone else and not him this time crying in an interview. “One of the things that makes me really happy about this interview, Joe, so far is that, like I have a tendency to tear up in interviews, as you may have noticed. But this time it was you. So, I’m quite pleased about that”, said Jordan. 

The former UFC Commentator confessed that behind manly persona, he holds an empathic heart that wells with joy in other’s victory. He admitted that during his post-fight interviews when he worked for the Ultimate Fighting Championship, he would have the same reaction. “When someone has a particularly incredible performance, I have to fight off tearing up. I feel so happy for them“, he revealed.
