UFC commentator and analyst Joe Rogan is an integral part of the promotion. He is as synonymous as it could get with the promotion. He is present in every big event and more often than not takes the post-fight interviews of fighters.

However, there have been questions raised over the necessity of his interviews after a fight, especially the ones where he interviews the fighters who get knocked out.

Be his latest one with Conor McGregor after UFC 264 or any other instances. While he is just doing his job, and asking the fighters their opinion, he has more or less become a target for the internet users.

As such, they have flooded his social media accounts with memes and trolls. He receives them daily and, being the professional he is, enjoys these along with his fans.

He later added another post where the users cropped his photo. He captioned it, “The internet wins again! There’s a shitload of these online, but I think @kamurashops has the best ones! Props to whoever created this one! It was sent to me in a text.”

“If anyone knows who made it please let me know and I’ll tag them!” he added.

Joe Rogan called ‘Saturday Night Live’ a ‘den of thieves’

In his latest podcast, the commentator had a conversation with comedian Shane Gillis. Rogan accused Saturday Night Live of stealing jokes, calling the show ‘den of thieves.’

“By all accounts, that place is a den of thieves. You hear Jim Breuer’s (cast member of show from 1995 to 1998) account of the climate in that place and it’s horrific. They’re all stealing from writers, they’re stealing from performers.”

He further added, “If you’re a writer and you submit your packages, the higher-up writers will steal your shit, according to Breuer.

“If you submit a package, they own that package, even if they don’t hire you, the podcaster added. So if you have some great premises, they decide they’re just going to take your premises and not hire you, they own all those bits.”
