The saga started when Rogan was narrating an incident of him interviewing someone who was in jail. Lex Fridman interrupted Rogan and asked him a question. He asked, “But I feel like it’s not your style, like just put it on the table, Putin? “. On top of it, they added the former US president Donald Trump as well.

JR replied by saying, “No. I didn’t even wanna interview Trump…I wouldn’t be interested in talking to him regular. So, I wouldn’t be interested in talking to him and broadcasting it. I don’t wanna be around them.”
