While discussing the impact of anime and other shows, Rogan referenced the iconic American animated show, South Park. But it didn’t take long for him to realize that the YouTuber had no idea what he was talking about. “You don’t know f***ing Kenny and South Park!” Rogan blurted.

MrBeast blushed at the reaction before harmlessly confessing, “I have heard the name, Kenny… I haven’t watched South Park.” Rogan couldn’t believe what he had heard as he looked at his crew, who had the same shock as him. His next words were, “Are we in an alternative universe? What planet are you from?”, as everyone laughed.

After that, the YouTuber tried to justify where he comes from and said, “You’re talking to a YouTube baby… I saw South Park as a waste of time.” As expected, Rogan was left open-mouthed and gasping for air before he could say anything else.

Just as Rogan was trying to recover and get back on track, MrBeast dropped another bomb on him. The UFC commentator then asked the YouTuber whether he had watched the movie “Team America: World Police,” and looked disappointed with the answer. “Nope,” uttered MrBeast hesitatingly, and received the most animated reaction he would have imagined. “Jesus Christ! What?”

However, after a long speech from MrBeast explaining his case, Rogan got himself together. The 23-year-old content creator explained how his hyper-obsession with YouTube made him feel like a weirdo. He also appealed to the younger generation to not feel that way and tried to find people with similar interests.

MrBeast stuns Joe Rogan with his humility

Apart from the casual joking and trolling, Joe Rogan could extract a lot about who MrBeast is. He told about his humble beginnings and how he approaches life now that he can afford all the comfort. His philosophy on money left host Joe Rogan speechless. The YouTuber pointed out that he puts all his money into his business, attracting praise from Rogan.

Soon after, he said, “Why do I need money?” fascinating Joe Rogan. “I think living your life chasing like a nicer and nicer car, and a bigger and bigger box to live in is kind of like a dumb way to go about life,” he added.
