Joe Rogan, the master of long-form conversations and host of the popular Joe Rogan Experience podcast, is inching closer to a remarkable milestone – the completion of 2000 episodes. In the 1991st episode, Rogan invited stand-up comedians Shane Gillis, Mark Normand, and Ari Shaffir.

The trio delved into some peculiar conversations, one of which is that of stars and their handlers. The entire 2.5-hour-long podcast had many interesting and hilarious moments, and their conversation about star handlers was one of them.

Ari Shaffir shares the experience of working with Tiger Woods with Joe Rogan

To illustrate the eccentricities of star handlers, Ari Shaffir shared a hilarious story from his own experience. He recounted shooting a commercial with golf superstar Tiger Woods before his infamous scandal. Shaffir explained that the handlers had explicitly instructed the crew not to curse or swear in Woods‘ presence.

“We did a commercial with Tiger Woods. They are like ‘Don’t curse around him’, it’s like before the scandal, they are like ‘Don’t curse around him, don’t swear’. I was like ‘Okay’.”

However, to their surprise, Woods himself casually used profanity, contradicting the earlier instructions. “And I am like ‘wait, what did you just tell us not to do?’” This story was an example of how star handlers often try to dictate the interaction celebrities have with others.

Joe Rogan about handlers

Joe Rogan chimed in, validating the uniqueness of star handlers and their desire for control over celebrities’ interactions. He characterized them as “weird people” who relish the authority they possess in regulating access to the stars.

“They are just handlers. They are weird people. There’s weird people that get a kick out of having power over the star. They have power to access. They are like ‘you can’t have access to this star, you cant get close to them.’”
