Joe Rogan, the UFC color commentator, has a massive fan base because of his widely heard podcast ‘The Joe Rogan Experience on Spotify. Given his global fan following, the 54-year-old talks about ongoing world affairs on his show even if they are controversial.

Recently, Rogan did the same in a conversation with YouTuber Chris Williamson on an episode of the podcast. During their talk, Williamson told Rogan that the US House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi will be visiting Taiwan soon. This news has led to a tense situation between China and Taiwan.

Williamson also added that China’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA), has warned ‘Prepare for War’ on a Chinese microblogging site. Upon listening to this, the UFC commentator was in shock.

“Jesus Christ, that is terrifying to me,” Rogan said. Further on, the 54-year-old compared the Russian-Ukraine situation and revealed a few concerns. Rogan said, “You know, that is the concern that a lot of people had about the response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. That the Chinese government would be watching how the United States handled that and planning accordingly.”

“And one of the things that the Chinese government saw was that we have instituted in place to penalize Russia. And that the Chinese economy and the Chinese government was going to look at that and make provisions and make plans,” Rogan added. 

However, the episode aired a few days before Pelosi’s visit. The situation between China and Taiwan has worsened ever since.
