Joe Rogan loves a good drink. On his popular podcast ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’ the 55-year-old is often seen enjoying a glass of booze with his guests, which certainly adds flavor to the conversation, too.

Another thing that the UFC commentator indulges himself in is the famous ‘Sober October’ challenge, which he does along with his comic friends. During the latest episode of the JRE with Kurt Metzger, Rogan revealed what happens once the ‘Sober October’ challenge is over at the end of the month.

The 55-year-old explains how being sober for a month makes him rethink about drinking again, even though he loves it.

Joe Rogan shares his changed perspective after Sober October

During the latest episode of the JRE, Joe Rogan, and the guest, Kurt Mertzel talked about drinking, going sober, and more. In light of the conversation, Mertzel talked about how being drunk messes up the system at times. Adding to this, Joe Rogan elaborated on the downside and aftermath of drinking.

“You think everybody is on your speed when you’re drunk. You think like you’re making sense… It’s so dumb. It’s so dumb. But while it’s happening, it’s so fun. So fun,” said Rogan.

The UFC commentator further stated, it is all fun at the moment when people get drunk, but it comes with a price. “It’s very fun while it’s happening. But the problem is like the f*****g price, too.” 

Rogan further explained his changed beliefs after the completion of ‘Sober October’ challenge. “Whenever I do ‘Sober October’, at the end of the month, I’m like, ‘Why would I drink again?’. I’m like, I feel so good.” Mertzel further put a question to Rogan, “Do you drink a lot?”.

The podcast host answered, saying, “I enjoy alcohol, my friend. I enjoy a glass of whiskey, I enjoy a glass of wine with dinner. I like a margarita.”

What is Sober October?

‘Sober October‘ requires an individual to give up drinking and getting intoxicated in any manner, for the entire month of October. This was initially started out as a fundraising campaign for ‘Macmillan Cancer Support’ in the UK.

The idea was, the sum individuals save up during the month of October from not spending it on drinking or any other intoxicating substances, they donate it to the cause. It further became a common thing around the world as a practice to detoxify themselves for a month. And Joe Rogan is one of its followers.

It was 4th installment of ‘Sober October’ for the UFC commentator this year and he posted a video on the first day of the challenge, explaining his goals. He wrote, “#soberoctober first workout in the books. I’m using a @polarglobal heart rate strap to monitor my calories burned. We have to burn 500 calories every day of the month in a workout.”
