On the 1753rd edition of the JRE podcast, Joe Rogan welcomed former JRE producer Brian Redban to the show. On the podcast, Redban asked Rogan if he thought the podcast would reach its current heights, when they started it.
The UFC commentator said:
“No! There’s no way I could have predicted it. How the hell could anyone have predicted it. Like we started with zero listeners and didn’t think it was going to be anything else that just fuck it up. And then somewhere along the line, it became that.”
