UFC color commentator and JRE podcast host, Joe Rogan, often talks about stories from his childhood. During episode #1857 with Seth Dillon, Rogan talked about how teachers are crucial in the shaping of a child’s life. While talking about teachers, the 55-year-old shared a story about his own experiences with his schoolteachers.

Joe Rogan believes children are impressionable at an early age and that the information provided by their teachers could help build their values.

The UFC color commentator recalled an incident that took place between him and a schoolteacher. Rogan said, “I’ve had some great teachers but, I’ve also had some f**king dummies, some real dummies, that said some stupid sh*t to me. I remember a teacher kicking me out of the room, telling the class don’t laugh because he’s never going to amount to anything… Mr. Rogan is never going to amount to anything.”

Understandably, The Joe Rogan Experience host was upset with the way he was treated and called the statement made by his teacher “rude” and “sh**ty.” It infuriated Joe Rogan as he said, “Why would you say that to a f**king eight-year-old?”

The 55-year-old later corrected himself, saying that he may have been fourteen when the incident took place.
