Another name that came up in the files was that of beloved media personality Joe Rogan. Now he has responded.Joe Rogan, one of the most popular podcasters in the world and a prominent supporter of President Donald Trump\u2019s 2024 presidential campaign, has been named in the Epstein files. The comedian decided to face the news head-on and addressed it on his podcast earlier this week.Between 2025 and 2026, the US Department of Justice released millions of pages of evidence related to the late convicted sex offender under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which was signed into law late last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even though there was a lot of evidence, much of which was released, and how Epstein exploited young girls and invited associates to participate, the FBI concluded that he was not running a trafficking ring.Joe Rogan has now explained the extent of his involvement with Epstein and made a comment on his podcast. He berated Canadian theoretical physicist Lawrence Krauss on Tuesday\u2019s episode of The Joe Rogan Experience after his name came up in the Epstein files and the scientist discussed Rogan with Epstein in a 2017 email exchange.In an email from September 2017, Epstein wrote to Krauss, \u201cI saw you did the Joe Rogan show, can you introduce me? I think he is funny.\u201dKrauss had been on Rogan\u2019s podcast earlier in the same year, and replied with, \u201cI will reach out to Rogan.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Epstein files, which have been released by the US Department of Justice, have revealed a lot of names within them.
