Reality television was never in Joe Rogan’s original career plan, nor was television or comedy of any kind. So how did this accidental performer wind up with a role on a successful sitcom, a groundbreaking debut comedy album on Warner Bros Records titled Im Gonna Be Dead Someday, and hosting Fear Factor and The Man Show? The answer is simple: Tae Kwan Do.


Joe began practicing martial arts at the age of 13. Within two years, the Boston native earned a black belt and soon became the Massachusetts full contact Tae Kwon Do champion four consecutive years. By the age of 19, Rogan won the US Open Tae Kwon Do Championship, and in true Joe Rogan fashion, the lightweight champion went on to beat both the middle and heavyweight title-holders to obtain the Grand Championship.


Joe credits Tae Kwon Do for his discipline and focus, two characteristics, which have enabled him to accomplish many things. It was not only Joe’s performance and abilities on the mat that wowed his buddies; it was his humor. Joe thought that they only laughed at his humor and constantly badgered him to perform stand-up because they were his friends. Joe failed to truly believe his material could reach a broader audience.

 

Luckily, Joe’s friends persuaded him into trying out his act- such as it was- during an open mic night in a local club. Just as his friends suspected, the audience was as smitten with Joe as he was with stand-up, and he knew it was meant to be.


In addition to Fear Factor and The Man Show, Joe continues to provide color commentary for the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship). He resides in Los Angeles and performs stand-up across North America.

 

BE ADVISED: YOU WILL HEAR EXTREMELY COARSE LANGUAGE IN JOE ROGAN’S COMEDY PERFORMANCE.
