Joe Rogan Prefers Russia Over Canada, Cites Political Climate

In a recent podcast episode, UFC commentator Joe Rogan stirred controversy by expressing a preference for visiting Russia over Canada, citing dissatisfaction with the political landscape. Rogan's remarks came during a discussion about an upcoming fight in Montreal, where he openly stated, “I don’t go to Canada anymore… I’d rather go to Russia.” Despite the startling nature of his comment, Rogan clarified that his grievances are directed at the government rather than the Canadian people, whom he praised as "awesome."
