From 1995-1999 Joe Rogan played a dimwitted, macho, perverted, homophobic handyman named Joe who wanted to participate in the UFC & believed every conspiracy theory he ever heard. He was so extreme that some of his co-workers suspected him of being the unibomber. His character was so much like him that there was a running joke in the show where anyone who hears his last name reacts with surprise (implying that his name might as well be Rogan). The only one he didn't annoy was the station
owner, an insane tycoon modeled after Donald Trump.
