Joe Rogan and guest Duncan Trussell, a stand-up comedian, dressed up as “furries” in the latest episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience.”
“Hi, Meow Meow,” Rogan said, wearing a dog costume.
“Hi, Rough Rough,” Trussell responded, wearing a cat costume. (RELATED: Police Find Four Children And A Dead Body At Boston Apartment Filled With Drugs, Sex Toys And Men In Drag)
“Furries” engage in a fringe sexual fetish by dressing up as animals, usually dogs and cats, and performing sexual acts. A professor at a private Massachusetts college invited furries to class and had students adopt their own furry identities as part of an assignment in March.
Rogan criticized the “furry” movement on his podcast in October, referencing a reported event in which a litter box was allegedly kept in a bathroom for a “furry” student in a Michigan school. The school has vehemently denied the report.
“This is our first podcast coming out as our true selves,” Rogan said in the interview with Trussell.
“We’re furries!”
“We’ve been holding it in forever,” Rogan said.
“And you know what, it just eats me alive to not tell how we met at a Furry Con,” Trussell joked.
“Well, we didn’t know that we met there, remember? I was like ‘Oh my god, you’re Meow Meow?'”
Rogan then joked the “odds are … not good I’m keeping this fucking helmet on.”
“I can barely breathe! How do they do it?” Trussell said, laughing.
“They fuck with these things on!”
“How do you fuck with this on?”
“They’re heroes!” Rogan said, joking he has “total respect for the furry community.”
“If you can fuck with this thing on, you’re an American hero. That’s how I feel,” he added.
