Joe Rogan is related to famous singer Gerard Way

While veteran broadcaster Joe Rogan might not be any relation of Seth Rogen, the former Fear Factor host is related to famous singer and writer Gerard Way.

During an episode of the color commentator's podcast, Rogan was in conversation with Kevin Smith. As their conversation moved forward, Smith asked Rogan if his grandmother's name was Rosie and also mentioned Gerard Way. That's when the UFC color commentator confirmed and said:

"Yeah, we are related."

Once Rogan confirmed he was related to the singer, Smith mentioned that Way told him the same thing. Smith said:

"That’s what he said. I was like, I’m going to Joe Rogan’s; And he goes, ‘I don’t have a 100 percent confirmation on this, but I’m pretty sure Joe Rogan is my cousin. My aunt Josie was his grandmother."

Check out Rogan and Smith's entire conversation below:

While Rogan confirmed that he and Way are cousins, the color commentator said that they did not know each other. Both Rogan and Way are extremely popular individuals. It will be interesting to see if the UFC commentator ever inivites Way on his podcast.
