Joe Rogan, comedian, UFC commentator, and podcaster, is one of the most listened-to people in the world. His podcast, the Joe Rogan Experience, has 11 million listeners per episode. The podcast is based in Austin, Texas following a long stint in Los Angeles.

Did you know that the podcast could have been based in Colorado if Joe Rogan would have stayed? Believe it or not, Joe Rogan used to call Colorado home.

Joe Rogan was talking about wanting to live in the mountains. Jelly Roll asked Rogan if he had mountains in mind. Joe Rogan said he loved living in the mountains above Boulder and that he lived there for a little while. The video below is a snippet of the conversation.

Why Joe Rogan Left Colorado

Joe Rogan and his wife lived in Gold Hill, which is 11 miles northwest of Boulder. The Rogan family left Colorado due to concerns about his wife's pregnancy and living in an area that has high elevation.

Rogan claimed that the high elevation and lack of oxygen worried the couple about having complications or premature birth.

Could Joe Rogan Come Back?

I doubt it. Rogan has said that he loves the area, but it seems like he is quite grounded in Austin, Texas. Not only is his podcast based in Austin but his comedy club, Comedy Mothership, is also based there.
