Joe Rogan is facing some intense scrutiny from social media users over an old podcast clip from 2011 that resurfaced on Friday night.
The clip shows Rogan laughing while his longtime friend and guest Joey ‘Coco Diaz’ brags about coercing female comedians for sexual favors in exchange for stage time at a local comedy club. The clip resurfaced just days after comedian Chris D’elia was accused of making sexual advances towards underage girls on social media.

Joey Diaz “You think I’m fucking kidding? Yeah, you’ve got to suck my dick to get up to [venue] the Belly Room. I’ll make a call for you. That’s the fucking gateway into Hollywood, everybody knows that.”
Joe Rogan: “How many girls did you have do that?”
Joey Diaz: “20.”
The clip resurfaced on Twitter on the 17th but gained steam on Friday when it was reshared by several prominent users on Twitter.
This shit makes me physically sick. Chris D'Elia is not the first awful creep and he won't be the last while we laugh along and pretend this is OK. Women belong in comedy as comedians and fans and don't deserve to be preyed upon. https://t.co/iQP4LHuV8o

I can safely say. That my response to someone admitting to me that they sexually assaulted at least 20 people, would not be to laugh with them. https://t.co/NgbzMtgdq9

And Joe Rogan laughs his ass off when the guy says he’s done it to at least 20 women.
Rogan doesn’t have one word to say against this. It’s hilarious to him. Ha ha you raped so many ladies!
And you want to tell me this man should be part of our political discourse. https://t.co/davmZsrkXy

Joe Rogan is and has always been garbage.
Well paid, popular trash is still trash.
