Spotify Podcast host, Joe Rogan invited fellow comedian Neal Brennan to the latest episode of the Joe Rogan Experience. The duo talked about a number of things ranging from comedy, combat sports, Rogan’s rise to fame with the Spotify deal, and more. They both also touched upon the career of legendary golfer Tiger Woods.

While Rogan specified that Woods chose to train routinely to enhance his performance, on the contrary to others who refrained from it. Brennan retorted with a story of his own, as he recalled reading an article about the star player. It baffled Rogan, as he could not believe the star player would push himself this far to attain record-breaking results.
