Aaron Rodgers has consistently shown a willingness to delve into conspiracy theories during public discussions. This bold approach continued during his recent appearance on the Joe Rogan podcast, where he suggested that the set of Ellen DeGeneres‘ former talk show bore an unsettling resemblance to Epstein Island, which raised eyebrows and sparked conversations.

Rodgers made this provocative comment while appearing on Wednesday’s episode of the “Joe Rogan Experience,” which naturally transitioned into a discussion about Jeffrey Epstein and his infamous residence on Little Saint James Island. The implications of such associations are significant, given the controversies surrounding Epstein.

Once producer Jamie displayed an image on the screen, Rodgers promptly remarked that it reminded him of the “set of a well-known talk show that has since been canceled.” This statement invited further scrutiny and discussion, particularly in light of the serious allegations surrounding Epstein.

Joe quickly recognized that Rodgers was referring to “Ellen,” which officially ended its run in May 2022. Following this, they brought up an image of the talk show’s set, but Rogan did not share Rodgers’ viewpoint and quickly dismissed the comparison, suggesting that such observations might be coincidental.

“That may just be a building in L.A.,” he stated. “It is whatever. I am not impressed with that; it could simply be a coincidence.” His skepticism highlighted the ongoing debate about making connections between such controversial figures and public personalities.

A-Rod was not ready to concede, however, asserting that Joe should “Talk to Alex [Jones] about that.” This remark fueled further speculation about the connections between influential figures in Hollywood and their ties to controversial subjects.

This is not the first instance where Rodgers has broached the subject of the disgraced financier and his associations with high-profile individuals in Hollywood. In January 2024, he found himself in hot water after implying that Jimmy Kimmel might appear on the Epstein associates list, which stirred significant backlash.

“Many individuals, including Jimmy Kimmel, are now hoping that information does not come to light.” This statement highlighted the growing concern among public figures regarding the implications of Epstein’s connections.

As expected, Kimmel was not pleased with Rodgers’ assertion and even threatened legal action against the Super Bowl champion. This reaction underscores the sensitive nature of the allegations surrounding Epstein and their impact on individuals in the public eye.

Rodgers ultimately retracted his comments, clarifying that he does not believe the late-night talk show host is a pedophile. This retraction was likely a strategic move aimed at mitigating the backlash from his previous statements.
