Joe Rogan recently revealed he has decided to make a huge change to his lifestyle by giving up alcohol - a move which follows in the footsteps of Donald Trump.
The president has famously steered clear of booze after witnessing first-hand dangers of alcohol through his brother Fred Jr. who battled with addiction issues.
Rogan appears to have found his own reasons to join Trump as a teetotaler, admitting on a recent episode of his popular podcast The Joe Rogan Experience that he quit drinking month ago due to concerns around its impact on his health.
The UFC host and former Fear Factor star delved into the topic during a recent episode featuring comedian Ron White who opened up about his experience with addiction, revealing that quit drinking four years ago.
White admitted that he didn't know Rogan had given up alcohol, and Rogan replied, 'Yeah, I think I'm done.'
He continued: 'For no reason other than it's not good for you. No, I didn't have to. I enjoyed it.'
White joked that he knew Rogan 'had a good time' with alcohol, and Rogan confessed that the 'days after' a night of drinking was 'just too rough.'
'And I'm like - what kind of a moron who takes such good care of his body is poisoning himself a couple of days a week for fun, ya know, why am I doing that?' he added.
Rogan then laughed and admitted that he 'has the same amount of fun' without alcohol.
White then poked fun at Rogan, noting that 'there's more than one way to skin a cat,' pointing out that they haven't quit every substance.
The two comedians also discussed ayahuasca, a psychoactive substance that can be found in the Amazon which White credits to have helped him abandon the booze.

Ron White who actually makes me laugh. Comedian and podcaster Joe Rogan, 57, revealed on a recent episode of his podcast that he decided to quit drinking alcohol
What about other substances?
He still smokes enough weed to supply a grateful dead concert. To each his own, but I wouldn’t exactly call it clean living.
He’s just addicted to weed now.
Trump was never a drinker. That doesn’t stop the daily mail.
The book on Marijuana has yet to be written...
10 years sober this year. Best decision I ever made. There’s a very long and fabled social history of alcohol, but I fear we’ve reached an inflection point where the physical toll it takes outweighs the social lubrication that used to drive humanity through the darkest days.
We’re seeing a bit of a renaissance right now. Men are standing up, cleaning up their acts, and starting to trudge through the mud that is globalist leftism in an attempt to try to save humanity, even if it’s done against an overwhelming media narrative driven by white liberal women.
A guy getting older gives up booze….Film at 11. LOL.
I know so many people who hit 40 and gave up drinking. They ALL lost weight and felt better. It doesn’t mean you cannot enjoy a glass of wine…it means you don’t have to drink the entire bottle.
Quit 16 years ago. Lost 40 pounds and now feel great!
Today The Daily Mail lies that the President is a former drinker and is tormented by it. Yesterday it was that he’s having an affair.
I quit last December. No weight lost, though, since I switched to NA beer.
Now do caffeine.
Ron White was hilarious years ago, as long as he didn’t get TOO nasty. We tried watching a special of his a couple years ago, and had to turn it off.
He’s BFFs with Dr. Phil. (Go figure.)
“I gave up drinking”
Translation: “I switched to Weed and Acid”
Football Star Aaron Rogers says: “Now, you’re talking. Ask me about my Sweat Lodge experiences!”
And won’t be read by a lot of people, when it does.
Don’t forget fasting. 🙂👍
