Joe Rogan Eviscerates The View’s Joy Behar, Calls X The ‘News Source Of The World’ [WATCH]
Joe Rogan slammed The View host Joy Behar after she accused him of believing in dragons, mocking her comments during a Thanksgiving episode of The Joe Rogan Experience.
Rogan, joined by comedians Mark Normand, Shane Gillis, and Ari Shaffir, addressed Behar’s remarks with a mix of humor and criticism, pointing out what he saw as the absurdity of her claims.
Rogan took issue with Behar’s assertion that he believed dragons existed, calling out her remarks in a clip from The View.

He recalled her saying, “I checked it, I checked it! He believes in dragons. They lived alongside people,” in reference to a conversation Rogan had with wildlife biologist Forrest Galante.
NEW: The View’s Joy Behar says people like their show because they tell the truth, unlike “dragon believer” Joe Rogan.
Lmao.
Whoopi Goldberg later chimed in & claimed conservatives on X are bullying people off the platform and that Elon Musk is the real Vice President.

During that interview, Galante floated the idea that dragons might have existed, using “porous bones” to explain the lack of fossil evidence.
While Rogan acknowledged the concept was intriguing, he clarified that he didn’t actually endorse the idea.
“I had to read the thing about The View because I just thought it was funny,” Rogan said during his podcast.
“Joy Behar was trying to say I believe in dragons! She said, ‘I checked it, I checked it!’ And then the lady goes, ‘Did you double-check it?’ and she goes, ‘I checked it, he believes in dragons. They lived alongside people.’”
Rogan’s reaction was lighthearted, but he wasn’t shy about pointing out the absurdity of Behar’s accusations.
He joked about the situation, highlighting how The View’s credibility was undermined by such a claim.
“When you’re worried about losing your job and you’re worried about podcasts taking over… this is crazy,” he said, referencing Behar’s apparent anxiety over the growing influence of podcasts in shaping public discourse.
Rogan speculated that Behar’s remarks were born out of fear that traditional media, like ABC News—The View’s parent network—was losing its grip on the narrative. “We said Donald Trump is Hitler, but half the country disagreed with us, and this is crazy,” he added, suggesting that Behar’s frustration was likely amplified by the rise of independent media platforms like Rogan’s podcast, which are increasingly becoming dominant sources of news and commentary.
Despite his sharp criticism, Rogan emphasized that he did not harbor any personal animosity toward Behar. “I just want to say for the record, I have no hate for Joy Behar. If I saw her, I’d give her a hug. I’d probably say the same thing about me if I was her,” he said.
Rogan also addressed the specifics of the claim by playing a clip from his interview with Galante.
In the conversation, Galante had suggested that dragons might have existed in the distant past, proposing that large reptiles such as crocodiles or Komodo dragons could have been mistaken for dragons in ancient stories.
Rogan clarified that while the idea was interesting, he didn’t fully support the theory. “My position is it’s probably crocodiles or some big Komodo dragon or some big lizard that did kill people and so people fought them with swords and shit and they came back with a story and the artist drew it,” he explained.
Rogan wrapped up his remarks by emphasizing how Behar’s accusations only weakened her credibility. “It’s no big deal, I don’t care, but it’s a silly thing to say,” he concluded.
“It undercuts your credibility when you claim ABC News backs you and then follow it with, ‘Joe Rogan believes in dragons.’”
Maybe The View is part of the reason Rogan says X is now the ‘news source of the world.’
