Joe Rogan Recalls How Watching Bert Kreischer Down Martinis Sparked a Realization About Sobriety: ‘He’s Slowly Turning Into a Human Grape’

UFC commentator Joe Rogan often hosts acclaimed comedians on his podcast, “The Joe Rogan Experience.” The recent #2320 episode of JRE featured Tom Segura, a friend of Rogan. Like Rogan, Segura is a podcaster, hosting one with his wife and another with Bert Kreischer.

During their conversations on the podcast, Rogan and Segura talked about consuming creatine and how it affected their sleep deprivation. Rogan admitted that alcohol consumption affected his sleep and recalled an instance involving Kreischer, which made him realize the importance of sobriety.

“Last time I was sober, I was with him [Kreischer],” Rogan said. “We were all, it was like, it was a great table. It was like Taylor Sheridan and his wife, my wife was there, Bert and his wife, David Goggins and his wife, and then a bunch of my professional pool player friends.”

It was after a UFC event, and Rogan had a great time with his friends, but what Kreischer did surprised him.

“Bert is just throwing back martinis, and I was like, ‘Oh, I definitely made the right choice.’ I definitely made the right choice. Like, I’m watching him, he’s slowly turning into a human grape in front of my eyes. His fu**ing reddened face. He was hilarious, he was. I’ll tell you, at the table, we were having a lot of laughs,” Rogan added.

Despite the high alcohol consumption, Kreischer assured Rogan that he had recently done his blood work and everything was okay. Segura informed Rogan that Kreishcer always makes the claim, hinting that the 52-year-old is possibly lying.

Rogan and Segura further spoke in awe of how Kreischer could consume vast quantities of alcohol without any difficulty. The UFC commentator speculated that it might’ve something to do with Kreischer’s body already accustomed to the practice.

Kreischer recently competed against football players from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a hilarious competition, holding a beer stein parallel to the floor. Surprisingly, Kreischer defeated all, holding it up for several minutes. Rogan attributed it to the 52-year-old holding drinks and toasting for a long time.

“He’s like got incredible genetics. Like if he wanted to be an athlete, he’d be an incredible athlete,” Rogan said, but also pointed out that Kreischer is addicted to booze. The 57-year-old doesn’t want to judge his friend as he is successful in his venture. However, he has concerns for Kreischer’s long-term health.

Rogan had recently announced that he had stopped drinking through an Instagram post. He disclosed on May 1 that he has been sober for two months, and blamed alcohol for sabotaging his desire to follow a healthy lifestyle.
