There is growing speculation about a potential collaboration between two prominent figures in the online world: Hasan Abi and Joe Rogan. Recently, Hasan has expressed interest in connecting with Rogan, possibly through a combined workout and podcast episode.
Both personalities command substantial audiences, with some overlap among their followers. However, they also represent distinctly different political perspectives, contributing to a unique dynamic within their fan bases.
Joe Rogan’s podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience, has established itself as a leader in the podcast industry, frequently topping Spotify’s charts except for rare occasions. Meanwhile, Hasan is a powerhouse on Twitch, attracting an impressive average of 25,000 concurrent viewers in 2024, even peaking at over 300,000 viewers during certain streams.
Historically, Hasan has indicated that he would decline an invitation to Rogan’s podcast. In 2021, he asserted that Rogan would likely not invite him due to their contentious history.
Hasan has also commented on Rogan’s potential influence on significant political events, notably analyzing a controversial episode featuring Donald Trump shortly before the 2024 Presidential Election.
Hasan Signals Interest in Collaboration
On December 26, 2024, Hasan publicly expressed a willingness to collaborate with Rogan by sharing a post from Alex “Lolo”Peters, advocating for their meet-up.
Hello @joerogan I think you should work out with my friend @hasanthehun and do a podcast episode together. I don’t like your politics, but I do think it would be good for you two to chat

In his repost, Hasan appeared receptive to the idea of a collaboration, a sentiment shared by numerous fans eager to see this unlikely meeting take place. One user remarked, “This would be my first time watching Joe Rogan in almost ten years, but I’d love to see it,”showcasing the curiosity surrounding a potential dialogue between them. Another listener commented, “That would surely be a top-rated podcast episode.”
Despite his past criticisms of Rogan—he notably stopped viewing a lengthy interview with Trump, stating that he couldn’t endure it any longer—there is a palpable excitement about the notion of this collaboration. In fact, he once declared that Rogan had “fallen off”during a late 2023 reaction to one of Rogan’s more criticized moments.
Reflecting on his earlier position from 2021, Hasan articulated, “The real reason why Joe Rogan will never have me on is because, like I said, I’ve criticized him too much. It’s just the truth.”Nonetheless, the prospect of a joint podcast or workout session between these two influential figures holds significant appeal for their respective fans.
