It appears Joe Rogan is immune to the effects of controversies. The UFC commentator has been at the center of controversies recently due to his varying opinions on The Joe Rogan Experience. But the podcast is just a fragment of the multifaceted personality of the 55-year-old. Rogan holds sway over his millions of fans, and his popularity is soaring amid the increasing backlash.

The standup comic can connect with the audience with his nonchalant and expressive demeanor. Also, JRE is entertaining the United States and the rest of the world with its coverage of anything under the sun. He doesn’t hold back and presents his true self, including his struggles and funny stories. However, the podcaster’s comments on issues like vaccines and transgender athletes cause a stir. As a result, he is subjected to boycott calls. Instead of experiencing a dip, a recent poll suggests the comedian’s popularity is at its peak.

Joe Rogan- a dividing figure for some, idolized by many

Notably, a Market research company, YouGov, shared its data on the popular TV presenter. They employed the statistics collected through surveys and snap polls relating to him.

The company’s findings reported that in the second quarter of 2023, 84% of the total people surveyed knew Rogan. Of those aware of the color commentator, 46% liked him, 19% disliked him, and 19% were neutral.

Amusingly, the ratio of people admiring Rogan to those who don’t is currently at an all-time high ever since the company started collecting the data. Its first poll dates back to quarter three of 2020 when only 70% of people knew him, and his likeability stood at 34%.

The graph had a spike in the last quarter of 2022 when it reached 40%. Following this, it dropped a point in the first quarter of this year before bouncing up again.

The JRE host’s opinions and his guests’ claims are hotly debated on the internet due to JRE’s wide-reaching popularity. Spotify, to rack in profits, acquired the exclusive rights to JRE in a deal worth $200 million. While the deal runs till the end of the year, there have been times when people have rallied behind to boycott the podcast. But the Swede company has stuck with Rogan.

Most recently, Rogan publicly challenged the scientist Peter Hotez to debate Robert F.K. Jr. The bet’s stakes reached a staggering $600,000 as others chipped in.

Lastly, YouGov’s metrics informed Rogan’s recognition and fondness were higher in men than women. It further disclosed the acclaim and awareness of Rogan were higher among millennials compared to Gen-X and Baby Boomers.
