"I want to be doctor Rogan" - Joe Rogan floats striking offer to universities during candid moment on his $250 million podcast

In episode #2325 of The Joe Rogan Experience (JRE) podcast, Rogan jokingly floated an interesting offer to universities across the globe to make him an honorary doctor, and he’ll come speak at their institution.

The conversation started light-heartedly as Rogan and his guest Aaron Rodgers, discussed people with honorary doctorates mentioning figures like Dr. Jill Biden and even comedian Bill Cosby, who were often referred to with the title “Doctor” due to their honorary degrees.

Rogan said:

“I’m just putting this out there, 'I’ll speak at a university if you give me an honorary [doctorate].' I want to be Dr. Rogan. I wonder if she [Jill Biden] did it just to be called doctor. Like, 'This is going to look good with that name when Joe [Biden] is the president.'"
