Even as a 19 year old lightweight, Joe Rogan dominated the middle and heavy weight competitors at the US Open Championship Tae Kwon Do tournament and held down the title of MA full-contact state champ for four years. However, Rogan soon retired from fighting after suffering from migraines and other health complications.

In the next several years, Joe Rogan appeared on MTV, Fox’s Hardball, and NBC’s NewsRadio sitcom. During this time, Rogan realized that stand up was more to his liking than acting.

Joe Rogan agreed to host NBC’s Fear Factor (2001-2006; 2011-2012) because he figured he could use the experience as fuel for stand up. He released a series of comedy specials including I’m Gonna Be Dead Someday (2000), Shiny Happy Jihad (2007), Joe Rogan Live (2007), Talking Monkeys in Space (2009), and later Joe Rogan: Live from the Tabernacle (2012), Joe Rogan: Rocky Mountain High (2014), and Joe Rogan: Triggered (2016).
