10 Things We Learned From Elon Musk On Joe Rogan Experience
5. Joe Bought A Tesla After Elon's Last Appearance
Of all the things that Joe Rogan is noted for, one of the lesser-known facts about the UFC commentator is he is a full-blown car enthusiast. Rogan has regularly hosted guests from the automotive world on the JRE, including Matt Farah, host of The Smoking Tire YouTube channel, and Rich Benoit of Rich Rebuilds.
Joe even featured on an episode of Jay Leno's Garage, profiling his prized 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and talking about his love of driving.
Despite being an avid petrolhead, Rogan revealed on the podcast that he purchased a Telsa following Musk's first appearance on the show, and explained in this episode that despite having never owned an electric car before, that he fell in love with his Model S.
Joe even went into detail about his infatuation with the car in an Instagram post from last year:
"Driving this @teslamotors model S is truly one of the strangest experiences I’ve ever had behind the wheel of a car. It legitimately feels like something wrong is happening. Without a doubt the most preposterously quick vehicle I’ve ever driven. It feels like something Bob Lazar snuck out of Area 51.Elon, you knocked it out of the park with this crazy thing."
