Joe Rogan claims to have used magic mushrooms amidst COVID-19 controversy

Joe Rogan was at the center of controversy last year owing to his controversial take on the COVID-19 virus and its vaccine. The renowned podcaster was also criticized for the choice of guests on his podcast, particularly leading cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough and virologist Dr. Robert Malone. A boycott campaign was led against Spotify by folk artist Neil Young protesting the platform's support for Rogan. The color commentator admitted that such controversies can be too much for a person to handle. According to Rogan, he took a daily dose of magic mushrooms to deal with the negativity. The 52-year-old told AI researcher and fellow podcaster Lex Fridman: “I used mushrooms. That was one way I did it. I took less than a gram every day and I did a lot of really hard working out. There’s a great benefit to go through anything difficult and trouble. It gives you an opportunity to grow and express yourself under pressure, to show your true character and how you deal with a difficult situation."
