American digital artist and graphic designer Michael Winkleman, who professionally goes by Beeple, appeared on a recent iteration of ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’. Beeple is considered a ‘visionary visual artist at the forefront of NFT’s’ and he had a lot of insights to share with Rogan. Beeple is well known in the NFT sphere and his knowledge of the system is paramount.
In fact, during the course of their discussion, Beeple ended up gifting the UFC commentator with a one in a hundred NFT that he was involved with. To Joe Rogan’s surprise, he was gifted an NFT, which was number 61 out of a 100 that was modeled after Elon Musk. The non-interchangeable unit lit up with lights and captivated everyone in the studio.

“For folks listening, what we have here is a, looks like a glass or some sort of plexiglass; some sort of a plastic mini IPad that has this beautiful image of a jacked Elon Musk in his underwear.”

Joe Rogan: Will he continue to be a staple on the commentary bench?
Apart from keeping the fans engaged on his ‘JRE’ podcast, the MMA community enjoys seeing Rogan on the podcast bench. He has been covering pay-per-view events for multiple years now, barely missing a show. He is a color commentator alongside Daniel Cormier and Jon Anik, who comes in as the play-by-play commentator.

However, Rogan’s presence has unfortunately reduced in recent years and he no longer covers international pay-per-views. Given his busy schedule, Rogan has now begun limiting his time on the commentary bench.
However, fans still want to see Rogan continue on, given the nostalgia attached to his tenure with the company. He has been a part of some of the most memorable UFC moments and, for many; he is the life and soul of the entire broadcast.
