UFC commentator and analyst, Joe Rogan runs a very successful podcast by the name of The Joe Rogan Experience. JRE is well known for all sorts of people coming over and discussing the most bizarre issues with absolutely no filter at all.

Rogan was swamped by criticism after he criticized the effectiveness of the government-approved Coronavirus vaccine. The entire medical community went after him, and many doctors from all around the world signed an open letter to remove his content from the platform. Joe issued a public apology for his statement, and everything was about to cool down.

Rogan said the video is really old, and he realizes he made a huge mistake, he’s developed as a person now, and he apologized for hurting anyone’s sentiment.

Many MMA fighters came in support of Rogan, and they claimed people are just knit-picking stuff because he speaks his mind, and he’s famous. Israel Adesanya slammed the entire cancel culture and stood behind Rogan during this incident. They removed many episodes of “JRE” from the platform, but their CEO refused to ban him from the platform.
