Renowned podcast host Joe Rogan, known for his candid discussions on a wide range of topics, including vaccines, recently pledged to donate $100,000 to the charity of vaccine expert Peter Hotez\u2019s choice. The condition? Hotez would need to engage in a discussion with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. regarding vaccine-related matters on Rogan\u2019s show.<\/p>\n

Rogan proposed an open-ended, no-time-limit debate on his show, aiming to provide an opportunity for an informed and respectful discussion on the topic at hand.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeter, if you claim what RFKjr is saying is \u201cmisinformation\u201d I am offering you $100,000.00 to the charity of your choice if you\u2019re willing to debate him on my show with no time limit,\u201d Rogan wrote.<\/p>\n

In another tweet, Rogan said, \u201cThis is a non answer. I challenged you publicly because you publicly quote tweeted and agreed with that dogshit vice article. If you\u2019re really serious about what you stand for, you now have a massive opportunity for a debate that will reach the largest audience a discussion like this has ever had. If you think someone else is better qualified, suggest that person.\u201d<\/p>\n

The news of the debate offer caught the attention of various individuals and organizations, resulting in a significant increase in the debate pot for Hotez\u2019s appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience.<\/p>\n

The pot now exceeds $1.5 million, consisting of pledges from multiple sources.<\/p>\n

Hotez slammed Rogan on Twitter following the challenge:<\/p>\n

Joe, you have my cell, my email, I\u2019m always willing to speak with you.<\/p>\n

Joe if you are serious about addressing vaccines + the fact that 200,000 unvaccinated Americans needlessly perished during our awful delta\/BA.1 Covid waves (including 40,000 in our state of Texas) because they fell victims to vaccine disinformation: I want to have that discussion<\/p>\n

And I\u2019m open to a number of different options, but to be pressured to give you an answer on Twitter, now, with a \u201ctake it or leave it\u201d demand that\u2019s not how I work. Honestly, I don\u2019t even think that would be in your best interests.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m happy to come on and have a meaningful discussion. I respect you and your show and I don\u2019t want an adversarial relationship. I think we can make some progress.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, Twitter user Alex Rosen of Predator Poachers, who investigate and expose internet child predators, confronted Hotez and asked him about vaccine-injured people.<\/p>\n

I confronted @PeterHotez<\/a> and asked why he is too scared to debate @RobertKennedyJr<\/a> on the @joerogan<\/a> podcast!<\/p>\n

Hotez immediately informed his followers on Twitter about the indicent:<\/p>\n

\u201cUgh I just was stalked in front of my home by a couple of antivaxers taunting me to debate RFKJr. Of course I was looking my Sunday best in our brutal heat wave. What is it with people? Well at least Houstonian\u2019s now know I support the team\u2026#GoTexans,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n
