Joe Rogan has been a podcast host for over a decade now. The comedian over the years has been very open with his audience about his life. Although he tries to keep his family out of the limelight, however when it comes to him and his personal life experiences, the show host has been nothing but honest about it.
Recently, on his show, the podcaster revealed about his childhood and his father. Rogan called his father a ‘psychotic person’ and moreover, even referred to him as very violent.

The 80-year-old’s attorney also sent a letter to The UFC commentator. The letter claims that the allegations have caused
enormous and quantifiable harm to his reputation.
Joseph Rogan’s attorney said, “Rather than immediately file such an action for damages and injunctive relief against you and your employer, Spotify, Mr. Rogan would be eager to appear on your podcast to look you in the eye, man-to-man, and correct your erroneous statements and explain the true facts to you”
