Joe Rogan is bringing another standup comedy special to Netflix – but this time it’s going to be live.
The longtime UFC commentator, comedian and podcast host Rogan will host his first comedy special since 2018 with “Burn the Boats,” which will be filmed live Aug. 3 at the Majestic Theater in San Antonio, Texas. The stream begins at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT.
Rogan and Netflix announced the comedy special on Tuesday (via Instagram):
Saturday, August 3rd I’m doing a live comedy special on @netflix at 10pm east coast time.
I’m very pumped for this and I hope you enjoy it.
Rogan’s Netflix special will be directed by Anthony Giordano, who is known for his involvement on UFC broadcasts but has also worked with Rogan for his four previous comedy specials: 2018’s “Strange Times,” 2016’s “Triggered,” 2012’s “Live From the Tabernacle” and 2009’s “Talking Monkeys in Space.”
During his time between doing standup and leading conversations on his world-famous “The Joe Rogan Experience” podcast, Rogan sits cageside calling UFC fights for numbered events, primarily in the United States. He was most recently on commentary for UFC 303 this past weekend alongside his typical broadcast partners of Jon Anik and Daniel Cormier.
