The Joe Rogan Experience, as its listeners would know, is a gold mine of amazing content. Fans get to listen to a wide array of stories and experiences from the guests and Rogan himself as well. In the latest episode of the podcast, the UFC commentator sat down with comedian Louis CK and shared an interesting tale from his childhood.

While discussing embarrassing encounters as a child, Rogan narrated how he once got attacked by a bigger girl on a school bus.  The story revolved around Rogan’s inability to defend himself even though he was in the ninth grade and the confusion on whether he could retaliate against a girl.

Joe Rogan narrates the story of getting attacked by a girl in ninth grade

While exchanging embarrassing stories, the long-time UFC commentator recalled how he once got attacked by a girl on the way to school. Rogan remembers being confused if he could hit her back at that time: “I got beaten up by a girl on a bus when I was 14. Couldn’t even fight back. I didn’t know what to do, I wasn’t sure if I could hit her back.”

The 55-year-old also recalled that it was a big aggressive girl who attacked him without much prior warning. 

“..something happened when I got on the bus. And there was this girl who was this tough girl, smoked cigarettes, she had leather jackets. And I don’t remember what happened and i don’t remember what the conversation was, but she either decided I was on the wrong seat or whatever so she started wailing on me. Like it wasn’t even… I didn’t argue back she just started punching me,” recalled Rogan.

Laughing out loud he also added that another kid came up to him as well after the scuffle.

 “And then this little guy who winds up being my friend…. tiny little guy, he was like in fifth grade and like the girl beats me up and then he comes over and “i ain’t f****g afraid of you either”.

This experience surely sounded like something out of a book or a movie. Although it is a funny memory as of now, it must have surely motivated Rogan to pick up self-defense as a kid.

Clearly, he has achieved quite a lot in the field of martial arts as he is a BJJ black belt. Rogan was also accomplished as a taekwondo athlete back in the day. Video clips of his devastating spinning kick are pretty famous on the internet as well.
