Arnold Schwarzenegger has tasted success in many fields. Fans know him for his god-like physique and his stint in politics. The Austrian Oak has been a producer, an actor, and a businessman, too. However, the actor didn’t find it easy always. He came from Austria to America and established himself on his own. Back in 2014, Joe Rogan talked about how it must have been difficult for Arnie to have gone by his difficult-to-pronounce name Schwarzenegger.

Joe Rogan said, “That’s one of the reasons why gotta give it to Schwarzenegger’s probs. That’s a bold goddamn move. The guy owned Schwarzenegger. Arnold too, Arnold, that’s a kid from some other strokes. I mean it’s not the manliest, most manly bodybuilder ever.” Alexis Ohanian also agreed with Joe Rogan. 

Arnold Schwarzenegger fought through problems and won

Alexis Ohanian looked aligned with Joe Rogan‘s views. He said “he made it though. See, Arnold definitely a fighter. I didn’t fulfill my father’s prophecy of me being a boxer. Instead, I guess I am a lover, not a fighter. Arnold Schwarzenegger started bodybuilding at 15 and went on to win Mr. Universe.
