In an ironic twist, Joe Rogan has been accused of stealing jokes nearly two decades after single-handedly destroying Carlos Mencia’s career for doing the same thing.
Rogan recently returned to the stage for the Netflix comedy special ‘Burn The Boats’ which was met with mixed reviews, generating a 54% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. Less than two weeks removed from its release date, Rogan is being accused of recycling jokes and stealing material from other comics.
While the former is nothing new as comedians often reuse and modify old material, the latter is a serious accusation in the stand-up comic community.
