Joe Rogan’s experience with Faroese whale meat
Joe Rogan is not one who is easily shocked.
However, in a recent episode of his popular podcast show ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’, he was slightly taken aback, to say the least.
His guest, fellow YouTuber Sonny Side, had brought along a bag containing dried pilot whale meat, which he was given during his recent visit to the Faroes.
Side showed Rogan a video clip of a pilot whale hunt in the Faroes.
The host’s first reaction was: “Oh my God. This is horrific!”
Side explained about the special Faroese whaling tradition and offered Rogan a bag containing dried pilot whale meat.
Rogan took out a piece of meat, sniffed at it and put it to the side, saying “I’ll think about it.”
A short clip from the whale meat episode is available on Youtube. The full episode is available on Spotify.
