During this week’s podcast episode, Joe Rogan said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky wanted to appear on his show, but he turned him down.
The episode, which was only posted to Spotify, featured a discussion with comedians Shane Gillis, Mark Normand, and Ari Shaffir.
“They tried to get Zelensky on. I was like, what are you talking about?” Rogan told his guests.
Rogan did not elaborate on what happened but explained that he originally wanted to stay out of the presidential election.

Last week, Rogan expressed deep concern that Joe Biden and Zelensky will start World War III before President-elect Donald Trump can take office.
During a discussion about the recent strike from Ukraine into Russia, which was done with Biden’s blessing, Rogan told his guest, music producer Scott Storch, that there should be laws preventing outgoing administrations from making such drastic foreign policy moves.
“How are you allowed to do that when you’re on your way out? People don’t want you to be there anymore. There should be some sort of pause for significant actions that could potentially start World War III,” Rogan asserted. “Maybe that would be a good thing that we would like to avoid from a dying former president. The whole thing is nuts.”
Rogan added, “Zelensky says Putin is terrified. F-ck you, man. F-ck you people. You people are about to start World War III.”
“You people are out of your f-cking minds,” he said.
“The world has been at peace before and then all of a sudden chaos. And to think that can never happen again, you’re wrong. It’s happening right now, it’s just not happening here,” Rogan said. “We don’t feel it here so it doesn’t affect our thinking process and we support things that could lead to it happening here and we don’t even realize we’re doing it as we’re doing it.”
NEW: Joe Rogan rips the Biden Administration for escalating the war in Ukraine with just two months left in office, tells Zelensky “f**k you.”
“[They’re] trying to like tug the tail of a sleeping… dragon.”
