UFC presenter Charly Arnolt has taken aim at left-leaning media outlets for hyping Kylie Kelce's podcast debut as a dethroning of Joe Rogan's long-standing dominance in the podcasting world. Kelce’s new series, Not Gonna Lie, surged to the top of the charts in its first week, outperforming The Joe Rogan Experience.
On her latest OutKick show, Arnolt congratulated Kelce, wife of NFL player Jason Kelce, on her early success but criticized the exaggerated narrative of media:
"Why are the headlines - if you beat Crime Junkie and the New York Times - all about dethroning Joe Rogan? Because we know the left hates Joe Rogan. This is easy to solve... But all of this aside, is she on the level of Joe Rogan, who has been podcasting brilliantly for years and years? Come on. No chance. Are her guests going to compare to President-Elect Donald Trump? Or Elon Musk? No way."

Arnolt also took a swipe at liberals and feminists celebrating Kelce’s rise, accusing them of weaponizing her debut to undermine Rogan’s relevance:

"The feminists and liberals on the left are having a field day because of her topping him in this one week. They are trying to convince us Joe Rogan is no longer relevant because of Kylie Kelce stepping into the podcast space."

Kylie Kelce reacts to winning the top spot over Joe Rogan Experience in the US for the top 100 podcasts.
Kylie Kelce recently thanked her listeners for their support after surpassing The Joe Rogan Experience and becoming the number one podcast on Spotify's top 100 in the United States.
Kelce spoke on Thursday's episode about her reaction to the podcast's unexpected success.
"You guys were again way too nice about this show, It absolutely blew my mind that you guys were able to get 'not going to lie' to the number one spot on Apple and Spotify. I'm still in disbelief about that the way that everyone has not only been so kind in the anticipation for episode one.
She further added:
"But then, also the reactions you guys have had and the comments have been so encouraging. I really appreciate you guys having such positive feedback considering I'm still a rookie and we're working out the kinks."
