Joe Rogan has become another prominent figure whose name appears in the Jeffrey Epstein case documents, as reported by media. The U.S. Department of Justice released three million documents related to the investigation into the convicted pedophile, with a delay of over a month from the original deadline.

While Epstein was known for connections to politicians and royalty, the new files reveal his contacts in the world of sports.

According to letters, Epstein corresponded with sports executives, including New York Giants co-owner Steve Tisch and owner of several professional clubs Josh Harris. However, they were not the only ones maintaining contact with the financier, who was found dead in his cell in 2019.

UFC is mentioned in numerous letters. One of them shows Epstein«s attempt to reach Joe Rogan, who has been commentating UFC fights for nearly three decades.

Krauss told Epstein that Rogan declined the meeting and «seemed more timid than expected».

The correspondence indicates that Epstein was on the UFC mailing list since 2009 and regularly purchased pay-per-view events. For example, his lawyer Story Cowles suggested ordering the UFC Versus 1 Vera vs. Jones fight for him, which Epstein agreed to.

In another letter, Epstein tried to arrange a meeting with Rogan through theoretical physicist Lawrence Krauss, who was a guest on the podcast «The Joe Rogan Experience» in 2017.

Epstein wrote to Krauss: «I saw you were on Joe Rogan»s show, can you introduce me? I think he«s funny.» Krauss replied that he would contact Rogan.

A few days later, the physicist informed Epstein that he could not arrange the meeting. «Sorry about Rogan for now... he seems more timid than I thought,» Krauss wrote.

As media note, Rogan«s mention in the documents came after the podcaster himself suggested that President Donald Trump is using other events to distract attention from the Epstein files.

The 2017 incident occurred nearly a decade after Epstein«s conviction in Florida for crimes involving minors. Despite this, many high-profile individuals continued to associate with him.

A 2016 correspondence reveals Epstein«s plan to buy a private jet from former UFC owners Lorenzo and Frank Fertitta. His assistant Gary sent an offer of $17 million after the Fertittas sold UFC for $4.4 billion.

However, a representative for the Fertittas did not respond to the offer.
