Joe Rogan appears to be uninterested in interviewing Benjamin Netanyahu. Last week, the Israeli prime minister was interviewed by the Nelk Boys on the Full Send Podcast amid the current Palestinian conflict in Gaza.
The Nelk Boys received immediate backlash for not asking Netanyahu any tough questions, which led them to apologize on social media.
“I wish I could go back in time to grill him harder.We just went in there unequipped to interview him, and that’s the honest truth.”

Netanyahu has reportedly attempted to jump on another male-focused podcast, but was denied by Rogan, according to the prime minister’s son Yair.
“Great wake up call for conservatives to remember Joe Rogan is not a conservative.” said Yair Netanyahu on X.
“He gave platform to every single neo Nazi antisemite on this plant, but he refuse to have my father on his show, because he knows that he doesn’t stand a chance against him, and all those years of antisemitic propaganda will go to waste.”

It is worth noting that Rogan was recently critical Israel over the current aid crisis in Gaza.
“People waiting for food got bombed. And no one wants to talk about it..If you do speak on it, you’re anti-semitic.”
