Elon Musk has expressed interest in meeting ‘someone new’. In a rather funny post, the Tesla CEO’s curiosity was piqued by a viral clip circulating on X (formerly Twitter), prompting him to publicly declare his desire to connect with this individual. The clip in question features Joe Rogan praising Musk on his podcast, which ultimately caught the billionaire’s attention.
In the widely shared video, Rogan describes Musk as a “very unique human being,” highlighting his ability to manage multiple companies while also working with the US government. Rogan speculated how historians might view Musk, imagining him as an “insane” figure running numerous ventures simultaneously.
The comments, originally from the January 28th episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience,” gained traction after being shared by entrepreneur Mario Nawfal.
JOE ROGAN: PEOPLE DON’T UNDERSTAND HOW RARE ELON IS
“If we didn’t live in the time of Elon Musk and you were studying him in history, you’d be like, Jesus Christ, what was that guy like?
That guy must have been insane.
This guy’s running 5 different companies simultaneously trying to develop a Department Of Government Efficiency at the same time.
He’s a very unique human being who exists once every who knows how many generations.”

Musk responds to the clip
Musk responded humorously on X (formerly Twitter), joking, “I need to meet this Elon guy. He sounds awesome.” Musk and Rogan have a history, with the Tesla and SpaceX CEO having appeared on Rogan’s podcast multiple times.
In one of the podcasts, Rogan highlighted Musk’s purchase of Twitter as a watershed moment.
“You’re trying to bleed that guy out,” Rogan said, referring to Trump’s adversaries. “But you f*** with the wrong dude.”
“He overpaid substantially to try to save free speech. This was not about making money,” he also said.
