In a startling revelation during a podcast interview, FBI Director Kash Patel disclosed that he was swatted just a day before his appearance on Joe Rogan's show. The incident left host Joe Rogan visibly shocked.

In a recent episode of 'The Joe Rogan Experience,' FBI Director Kash Patel shared a shocking personal incident with host Joe Rogan, revealing that he had been the target of a swatting attack just one day before their recording. The revelation visibly stunned Rogan, prompting a discussion on the severity of such actions.
"As Director of the FBI, I have a responsibility — I’m not just going to bring a case because somebody hurt me," Patel began, adding, "They did. And they continue to do it. S***, my house just got swatted yesterday."
"What?!" Rogan exclaimed.
"Yeah," Patel replied.
"You got swatted?" Rogan asked, clearly struggling to comprehend the situation.
"Oh, yeah," Patel confirmed.
"The head of the FBI gets swatted?" Rogan asked again.
"Yeah," Patel repeated. "Yeah. These people play — it’s the ultimate height of hypocrisy. They have two sets of rules. One against you, and one for them."
During the same interview, Rogan and Patel also briefly touched on a public disagreement between President Donald Trump and entrepreneur Elon Musk, though Patel quickly steered clear of the topic.
"I’m just staying out of the Trump-Elon thing. That’s way outside my lane," Patel stated.
"What the f*** are they doing?" Rogan asked.
"I know my lane and that ain’t it," Patel affirmed.
This episode underscores the unexpected risks public figures face, and highlights the broader implications of targeted harassment against high-profile individuals.
