Joe Rogan did not hold back while talking about Nick Fuentes and his tense interview with Piers Morgan. On episode #2431 of The Joe Rogan Experience, Rogan said Morgan was caught off guard during the interview and described the moment as Morgan getting “hit with a missile.” The episode was uploaded on YouTube on December 25, and comedian Shane Gillis joined Rogan as a guest. The two talked about Fuentes’ December 8 appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored. What started as a debate quickly turned tense. Morgan pushed Fuentes on serious issues, including his past praise of Adolf Hitler and Holocaust denial. Instead of giving a direct answer, Fuentes replied with a short joke. That moment, Rogan said, completely shifted the interview.
Joe Rogan explains why Nick Fuentes’ Piers Morgan interview shocked everyone
During the podcast, Shane Gillis explained why Nick Fuentes is hard to challenge in public debates. He said Fuentes often uses humor to dodge serious questions, even when the topic is disturbing.“And it’s also the thing that people try to get Fuentes on is he’s still funny… So that’s where you’re in a lot of trouble,” Gillis said.Joe Rogan then pointed to one moment from the interview that stood out the most. He explained that Piers Morgan asked Fuentes about making jokes related to the Holocaust. Instead of answering seriously, Fuentes responded with just two words.“When he hits him with, ‘Do you think the Holocaust, you made jokes about the Holocaust,’ he goes, ‘Too soon?’ Like, dude, he’s wild. You could see Piers going, ‘Oh,’… Bro, he got hit. He got hit with a missile on that one,” Rogan said.Rogan added that Morgan and Fuentes were not playing the same game. According to Rogan, Morgan approached the interview like a traditional journalist, while Fuentes treated it like internet performance.“And that Piers Morgan thing is like, bro, that was like an expert sparring with someone who thought they were an expert… They’re playing two totally different games,” Rogan said.Later in the episode, Rogan also talked about Fuentes’ growing online reach. He said Fuentes could not have gained this level of attention 20 years ago.“Listen, he couldn’t have existed before. Twenty years ago, couldn’t have existed. Now, super popular. What does twenty years from now look like? Maybe someone like that can win,” Rogan said.Nick Fuentes remains active online through his America First podcast on Rumble, while Joe Rogan continues hosting his podcast on YouTube.Also Read: “Very High Verbal IQ”: Joe Rogan Links Nick Fuentes’ Internet Fame To A Possible Future President Run
