Professional Career

Rogan had little intention of becoming a professional stand-up comic and had considered doing a career in kickboxing at first. His parents took him to see comedian Richard Pryor’s film Live on the Sunset Strip when he was a kid, and it changed him “in such a deep way. Nothing had made me laugh like that.”

Rogan’s gym and Taekwondo school mates persuaded him to try stand-up comedy so he would tell jokes and do sketches and make them laugh. On August 27, 1988, at the age of 21, he performed his first stand-up routine at an open-mic night at Boston’s Stitches comedy club, after six months of preparation and practice.

Rogan moved to Los Angeles in 1994, and his first national television appearance was on MTV’s Half-Hour Comedy Hour. Following his appearance, the network offered him a three-year exclusive deal as well as a $500 spot in a pilot episode of a “dopey game show.”

Sussman responded by sending tapes of Rogan’s appearances to many networks, which started a bidding war. Rogan accepted a production contract with the Disney network after a process of discussion. In the 1994 Fox sitcom Hardball, he played Frank Valente, a young, egotistical star player on a professional baseball team, in his first major acting role.

Rogan started his career as a backstage and post-fight interviewer for the mixed martial arts promotion Ultimate Fighting Championship. On February 7, 1997, he made his debut at UFC 12: Judgement Day in Dothan, Alabama. After seeing Royce Gracie fight at UFC 2: No Way Out in 1994, he became involved in Brazilian jiu-jitsu and landed a job with the company because Sussman was friends with its co-creator and original producer, Campbell McLaren. He left after two years because his pay was insufficient to cover the expense of commuting to the gatherings, which were often held in rural areas at the time.

Rogan is an avid hunter and a supporter of the “Feed What You Kill” campaign, which aims to eliminate factory farming and the mistreatment of farm animals. Rogan opposes mandatory child circumcision, claiming that there is a shortage of significant empirical support for the practice’s benefits, which he compares to female genital mutilation because of its non-consensual existence.
