AUSTIN, TEXAS: Recently, a guest on famous podcast 'Joe Rogan Experience' made the host and UFC color commentator, Joe Rogan, really happy. Rogan has a history of accepting unusual artefacts. His podcast setup is made up of various oddities he has accumulated over the years.
But now one guest, Patrick Bet-David, the founder of Valuetainment, an online media company that teaches business advice and personal improvement to people, overwhelmed Rogan.
5 gifts that Rogan received
Patrick managed to gain attention as he bought five items that topped all of Joe’s previous collection, and surely the outspoken commentator was left without words. He stunned the podcaster into silence when he unveiled several presents while being live.
1. Joe, who is a big fan of Jimi Hendrix, received a limited edition Jimi Hendrix pen as the first present.
2. The next gift was a letter that had been personally signed by Andrew Jackson, who Patrick believed to be Rogan's "first anti-establishment president."
3. The third gift was the biggest since it had a board with signatures from significant participants in the Kennedy assassination, such as President Ford and Lee Harvey Oswald.
4. Lenny Bruce's original microphone, one of Rogan's favorite comedians, was the fourth gift, and it was perhaps the best. Patrick referred to it as "the missing piece" and even acknowledged that he had postponed his appearance on the programme because he was so anxious to give Joe the item.
5. Patrick’s final gift was an advance copy of his new book, titled “Choose Your Enemies Wisely”.
The guest said, “It’s hard to get a gift for you, because you can buy any gift yourself. The hard thing is finding something.” A happy Rogan said that “it was the most sh*t that anyone has ever given me."
'The guy is an absolute phenomenon'
The clip was uplaoded by JRE CLIPS on YouTube and no wonder it went viral. At the time of writing, it had 1.3 million views and more than 3000 comments.
