Joe Rogan, the host of "The Joe Rogan Experience," recently entertained his audience with a light-hearted discussion on the pressures of having famous parents, focusing on Elon Musk and Arnold Schwarzenegger's children. 

While chatting with guests from the Legion of Skanks podcast, Rogan commented on the complexity of Musk’s son’s name, X. “Well, he calls his son X, but it's like a bunch of other letters, too.

Bro, imagine if you were that guy's son, but you were a moron. That would suck,” Rogan mused.

The conversation shifted when Big Jay Oakerson brought up Schwarzenegger's sons, noting the physical differences between them. 

Rogan humorously added, “I think the other son is jacked, too, now. Sometimes, you just, you know, 'f**k dad, I don’t even want to lift weights.”

The topic of names and their potential impact on children's futures continued with a nod to Chet Hanks, son of Tom Hanks. 

Rogan opined that certain names might predispose celebrity offspring to particular life outcomes. “They set him up for failure with the name they chose,” he remarked.

This episode also touched on broader issues like freedom of speech.

During a previous episode with guest Matt Walsh, Rogan expressed concerns over government interference, stating, “Yeah, it's complicated and this childish idea that just hands it over to the government to clean it up, that's not the answer. It is complicated. There are going to be people that say a bunch of things that aren't true, but the way to combat that is not put the government in charge of what's true, especially when they've been wrong so many times or they've just out and out lied so many times.”
