Joe Rogan can say what he wants on his podcast, even if it isn't always the popular opinion.
After all, the 'Joe Rogan Experience' podcast host was paid millions by Spotify to do so.
What we know is when Joe Rogan takes a particular stance, it always has fans on both sides talking about the matter.
In this particular case, fans weren't too thrilled with what Joe Rogan had to say. Sure, turning down a show is normal, heck Rogan himself got turned down by a country music singer by the name of Colter Wall, due to the fact that he was ranching.
Although fans loved the authenticity of that story, they weren't loving Joe Rogan's reasoning for turning down a hugely popular YouTube series.
Sean Evans And Hot Ones Had Some Epic Guests In The Past
With 10.8 million subscribers on YouTube, the 'First We Feast' network is among the most popular platforms on YouTube.
Of course, fans love the channel for the spicy wings show 'Hot Ones'. Sure, watching celebs struggle with hot wings like 'Da Bomb' is truly hilarious, however, the host Sean Evans also does a great job in making the conversation flow, while asking the guests amazing questions most fans want to know the answer to.
Among his top guests include Gordon Ramsay, that video has 100 million views. Among others includes Billie Eilish, Kevin Hart, Paul Rudd, Margot Robbie, recently Tom Holland, and oh so many more.
Fans are still asking for other guests, among the most frequently demanded include Keanu Reeves, Dwayne Johnson, and a certain someone we're about to discuss.
Now Keanu and Dwayne haven't turned down the request from what we know... however, things are a little different for Joe Rogan, who completely shut things down on his podcast, 'The Joe Rogan Experience'.
Joe Rogan Turned Down 'Hot Ones' And Won't Change His Mind
While in conversation alongside Brendan Schaub on his podcast, the two were chatting away about spicy wings. Then suddenly, Joe Rogan brought up the topic of 'Hot Ones'.
Here's when the heartbreaking moment would take place, as not only would he reject the show, but he would also criticize the interview process.
“I don’t wanna do that wing show. Not a good way to talk, man. Like, talk while snot’s coming out of your nose and you’re crying? That’s not a good place to talk.”
Schaub was taking the fan perspective, telling the host it would be fun to see him on the show regardless, "It would be interesting though, you'd do well. It be fun though, it would be fun to see you on there."
Rogan wouldn't switch his stance despite Schaub's words stating, "Why are you asking people personal questions while they can barely talk?"
Rogan would also state that he isn't a spicy foods guy, though he doesn't mind eating spicy from time to time, making mention that the hottest pepper he ever ate was an 8.
Now despite his stance on the matter, fans were none too pleased with his comments and thoughts about the show.
Fans Roasted Joe Rogan For Turning Down The 'First We Feast' Network
How do we know fans want to see Joe Rogan on 'Hot Ones'? Well, the video alone on YouTube with Rogan discussing why he wouldn't do the show has nearly 8 million views!
Clearly, the fans aren't taking his side in this one, as the comments were all over Rogan and his feelings pertaining to the show.
"The real reason he won't ever do it is because he wants to be the only bald guy in the room."
"Joe: “It’s not a good way to talk to people” Literally everyone on hot ones has said how good an interview it is."
"Joe: "Not a good way to talk, snot's coming out of your nose, you're crying" -Shoves a mic in front of UFC fighter with a split lip and swollen shut eye."
"This should be called “Why Joe Rogan doesn’t understand Hot Ones.”
"That's the whole point of hot ones that they ask personal and good questions while their mouths are on fire which means their guard is down and you get more interesting answers. Also, it's very entertaining."
There was not a single comment defending Rogan's stance on the show, which really goes to show the popularity between 'Hot Ones' and Sean Evans' interview style.
Who knows, maybe given all the backlash, Joe Rogan might reconsider... Yea, probably not.
