A post shared by Joe Rogan (@joerogan)

I found this in the garage. It wasn’t even the size of a silver dollar and I was stopped in my tracks at how big it was. That’s how creepy spiders are. If a mouse or a rat was that size I would think it was adorable and I’d try to safely get it outside. A silver dollar sized spider would induce sheer terror in many people, me included.

The 54-year-old would’ve proceeded to escort a rat or mouse safely out of the garage, but the spider is a different story altogether.

As a Business student, Rohit’s love for the UFC was double-sided with the business of it being just as intriguing as the martial arts aspect of it. “Don't just fight, perform” is a quote that he believes drives the most entertaining fights of the UFC, with the likes of Conor McGregor, Chael Sonnen, and Israel Adesanya sweeping him off his feet with their skill as well as swagger and trash talk capabilities.
