Joe Rogan Experience #1774 might be the reason for Hugh Jackman’s questioning

Derek from the “More Plates More Dates” YouTube Channel tweeted his thoughts on Hugh Jackman’s interview. The YouTuber was astonished at the number of tags he received on the interview. He tweeted, “For the first time ever in his 20+ years playing Wolverine, Hugh Jackman was asked if he used Steroids. The amount of times I’ve been tagged in this over the past week is wild. I can’t help but wonder if my conversation with @joerogan last month had anything to do with it.”

Moreover, it is highly likely that the influential podcaster’s fans created a stir for such an interview to take place. In JRE #1905, Rogan and Derek spoke about Hollywood celebrities taking steroids. They questioned how the mainstream audience isn’t asking any questions to their favorite stars. They spoke about Chris Hemsworth and Hugh Jackman. Speaking on the Wolverine actor, the UFC podcaster said, “Like Wolverine. Like, cut the f*****g sh*t.”
