“I believe in freedom and I believe in love. But I also believe in crazy people.”

Comedian Joe Rogan has worn many hats in his lengthy career. A leading pioneer in the podcast space with the interview show, “The Joe Rogan Experience,” Rogan has long been known for his multi-layered work as an actor, reality game show host and UFC color commentator. However, Rogan cut his teeth in stand-up comedy, which he returned to in full force with the Netflix special “Joe Rogan: Burn the Boats,” which aired live on the streamer this evening.

Six years after his previous stand-up special, “Joe Rogan: Strange Times,” this newest iteration of the controversial comedian’s work was unwilling to hold back any punches.
