"If I stopped tomorrow, I'd be cool" - Joe Rogan lifts the lid on his UFC commentary, stand-up comedy and podcasting futures
Joe Rogan recently opened up on his multiple career ventures, which includes UFC commentary, stand-up comedy and podcasting.
Rogan recently featured on the This Past Weekend podcast with Theo Von. The renowned color commentator is a popular figure among fans of the UFC. With that in mind, Von asked him if he feels under pressure to live up to the expectations of fans as he is such a popular individual.
The 54-year-old stated that he doesn't feel any additional pressure with commentary or any of his responsibilities. Rogan added that if he immediately had to stop doing everything he does, he would be fine and wouldn't have issues finding other things to do:
"It's not a crazy question but I don't think like that. I just keep doing what I am doing. Like, if I stop tomorrow, I'd be cool. I enjoy doing everything. I enjoy doing comedy, I enjoy doing [the] podcast, I enjoy doing the UFC. But if I stop doing all of it tomorrow, I'll find other sh*t to do."
Rogan went on to list the things that he would do if he was looking for new things to keep him busy. A man of many talents, he noted that he is keen to get better at archery, as well as work on his jiu-jitsu skills:
"I like doing things. I would probably just get really more into archery and playing pool. Or maybe I start drawing again or something. I don't need to do what I am doing, I need to do things. I'd probably just like invest more time in jiu-jitsu."
