On episode #2247 of The Joe Rogan Experience, the popular podcaster hosted fellow standup comic Duncan Trussell, with whom he expressed awe for Elon Musk's elite-level gaming skills. The SpaceX CEO is the world's wealthiest person and, consequently, among the world's busiest.
Yet, despite his overwhelming schedule, he finds the time to play video games. However, not only does Musk game, he games competitively and at an extremely high-level, with a favorite of his being 'Diablo 4,' in which he is ranked in the leaderboard's top 20 across the globe. Trussell said:
"It is insane. When I was addicted to that f***ing game, I just wasn't sleeping because I had to do dad duty in the day, Diablo at night. And I was... I sucked! So when you realize this guy [Elon Musk], shooting rockets into space. Making e-vehicles, starting a new f***ing department of the government, is also the top [Diablo player]."
An astonished Rogan burst into laughter and said:

This isn't the first time Rogan has expressed amazement over Musk or CEOs in general, for that matter. He is on record waxing lyrical about Dana White's otherworldly gambling skills, while also recognizing that the latter is partaking in a world that he never would.
He is also close friends with both Musk and White, the former of whom he has hosted on his podcast several times.
