Rogan said, “So, it’s kind of a competitive environment, too. You seeing like ‘Oh, this guy is f**king talented. This one girl is rising up. And this one guy has got it figured out’. You’re watching even over the course of the last two months, these people learn and grow.”

“And this is like this pressure cooker thing going on there, too. Because, you know, Shane Gillis will stop by, Dave Attell will stop by, Rich Vos, Dave Chapell, and Andrew Schultz. It’s like crazy in there. It’s like every night, there’s more wild sh*t going on.”
