The pair talked about religion and Christianity in depth. Huff has now claimed that Rogan has been constantly going to church for a while now.

Speaking with a few guests on a video call, Huff said:

"I can tell you for a fact that he is attending a church and that that has been a consistent thing. But we're seeing somewhat of a resurgence in interest in these topics. We had someone who reached out to us. They said, 'We have people walking through our doors asking young people, teenagers, saying, I want a Bible. All my friends are reading this thing. If the Bible is becoming popular with teenagers, then something is happening and the Lord is moving."

"When I was 19 I fought in this tournament in Anaheim, California. It was the National. I was the Massachusetts state champion, and I fought this kid who I think was the Illinois state champion. I hit him in the head with a wheel-kick.... He went out. Face plant, snoring, never woke up... I have no idea what happened to him, and it freaked me out."

Rogan added:

"My main instructor, said to me, 'I heard you had a great knockout'. I said, 'Yeah, I thought he was dead. He never got up.' He goes, 'Sometimes they die'... Then I was thinking, 'I'm not immune to that. Someone could 100 per cent do that to me. We're whipping bones at each other'. It changed my feeling about it, I never had the same enthusiasm after that."
