The Joe Rogan Experience podcast is a long-form conversation hosted by comedian Joe Rogan with friends and guests that have included comedians, actors, musicians, MMA fighters, authors, artists, and beyond. It was launched on December 24, 2009, on YouTube by Rogan and comedian Brian Redban, who was its co-host and producer until 2013 when he was replaced by Jamie Vernon. By 2015, it was one of the world’s most popular podcasts, regularly receiving millions of views per episode, also including a wide array of guests, including business magnate Elon Musk, whistleblower Edward Snowden, and Senator Bernie Sanders. Since December 2020, the podcast has been exclusively available on Spotify, with highlights uploaded onto the main Joe Rogan Experience YouTube channel. The podcast was originally recorded at Rogan’s home in California, before moving to a private studio in Woodland Hills, Los Angeles. Production was relocated to Austin, Texas after the podcast was exclusively licensed on Spotify in 2020.
Riding a wave of success from the release of his debut Netflix comedy special Speshy Weshy, New York comedian Chris DiStefano adds to the already legendary series of celebrity guests to discuss his comedy career, having a New York state of mind, current events, and so much more.
Distefano has been a pretty busy comedian the last couple of years, he wound down a wildly popular podcast (History Hyenas) and spun up 2 (Hey Babe, Chrissy Chaos) on his own network. Additionally, he hosted a truTV show, and started to sell out some major venues. Things are going pretty damn well for Chrissy D.
Now DiStefano is eyeing a new stand-up comedy special and album and he’s chosen to do what a lot of comedians are planning to do these days and self fund and finance the special and corresponding album by himself and drop it right to his fans via his Youtube page. “I am super excited about this special. My career only really started when I put it in the hands of my fans. That’s why I wanted this all to be self produced and put on YouTube. I will let the people decide if it’s funny or not. My mom has said it’s not for her.” stated Distefano.
