AUSTIN, TEXAS: Joe Rogan removed Brian Redban from 'The Joe Rogan Experience' in 2013 due to his lack of technical knowledge and co-hosting abilities. In response to this information, the American comedian recently shared an old email he had sent to the designers of GTA and Red Dead Redemption on Twitter.

According to the post, he was "just hustling." Redban came up with the concept of using the podcast's material as a radio station on gaming platforms. The correspondence was sent on December 27, 2011.

‘I was just hustling’

He tweeted the information to his followers and said, “This is a real email…@joerogan had no idea about this… I was just hustling..@RockstarGames.” Moreover, the email stated, “My name is Brian Redban. I produce and co-host the Joe Rogan Experience. I was wondering who I could talk to about an idea I had. I produce about 6-12 podcasts a week and get several million listeners a week, and would love to see how if it would be possible to include all of my content as a radio station on your upcoming video game. It would just use simple RSS, and it could stream within the game if connected to the internet. Me and Joe Rogan are constantly looking for new ways to reach people with our podcasts, and think it would be a unique way for us both to win win.”

From 2009 until 2013, Redban worked for Rogan on the boundary-free intellectual platform. Rogan's decision was also influenced by his reluctance to contribute to the program when it had guests with a variety of ideologies in addition to comedians.

Early in 2003, Joe Rogan hired self-taught video editor Brian Redban, who was also employed by an Ohio Gateway 2000 computer store, to make videos for his website full-time. This was the beginning of the podcast. The UFC color commentator invited Redban to record Rogan and his friends when they were on tour performing stand-up comedy after spotting his video production work for comic Doug Stanhope.

A few years later, Redban realized that Rogan's audience was wanting more content from him and that he needed to engage with them more quickly. After experimenting and testing on several platforms, Rogan signed a contract with SiriusXM in May 2011 to have the podcast broadcast on its uncensored talk channel The Virus. Rogan began posting video snippets from the podcast onto YouTube at the beginning of 2013. Their network and viewership reached unprecedented heights as a result of this decision. Since then, the site has attracted millions of members and become a worldwide sensation.
