Joe Rogan has used his new Netflix stand-up show to savagely lampoon Prince Harry, calling him a ‘b**ch’ and joking about the royal taking magic mushrooms.
The podcast star, 57, also mimicked the Duke of Sussex’s British accent as he accused the California-based Windsor of ‘talking s**t about me’ – a reference to the Sussexes’ public concerns about ‘Covid misinformation’ on the vaccine-sceptic’s Spotify show.
Harry and Meghan revealed they reached out to the music streaming giant to ‘express our concerns’ in 2022 – but did not split with the firm, who later declined to renew Meghan’s podcast Archetypes and the couple’s $20million exclusive deal.
On Mr Rogan’s new live stand-up show Burn the Boats, released on Netflix this month, Joe mercilessly laid into Harry.
He said: ‘I got cancelled so often during Covid that sometimes I would find out by accident. This is a true story. One time I just woke up I’m in my underwear I plop down, turn the TV on and Prince Harry’s talking s**t about me. I’m like I just woke up. I’m vulnerable. I’m in my underwear and there is a prince on TV talking about me’.
Mocking Harry’s accent he said to howls of laughter from the crow: ‘He’s like “Joe Rogan is giving out dangerous vaccine misinformation”. And my first thought was “f**k did I?’.

He also mocked Harry by imagining what it would be like to take drugs with him – and then fantasised about hammering him over their row over vaccines while high on hallucinogens.
New Jersey-born Mr Rogan said he would get Harry tipsy and then encourage him to get high with him.
‘Could you imagine doing mushrooms with Prince Harry? You imagine if you could trick that guy into doing mushrooms with you’, he said.
‘The moment you see him chew it and swallow it. There’s a moment when you do mushrooms, like 20 minutes after you swallow it, when you know you can’t throw it up anymore.
‘And you’re like “Oh no it’s going to happen” and you’re sitting eye to eye with the prince. And here’s the thing. Mushrooms take about 40 minutes to kick in, but about 35 minutes in you hear them coming. You hear footsteps in the distance. Meanwhile, Prince Harry is tripping balls’.
To more laughter from the audience he said: ‘I’m going to hover over him and say: “Are you sure vaccines are safe?” B**ch you’re not a scientist’.
Rogan’s drugs dream came as the Duke of Sussex remains at the centre of a legal case over the issue.
Donald Trump has previously suggested that Harry – who has lived in the US since 2020 – would not get ‘special privileges’ and indeed may be deported if he is found to have falsified information on his visa form.
In the Prince’s memoir, Spare, he revealed he previously took drugs including cocaine, cannabis and psychedelic mushrooms – which under US law would typically be grounds for a visa application to be rejected.
Harry and Meghan will land in Colombia this week for a controversial visit.
The Sussexes are jetting to a country widely considered more dangerous than Britain – yet Harry says it is not safe to bring his wife and children to the UK amid his row with the Home Office over police protection.
Meghan Markle wishes Prince Harry could ‘let go’ of the legal battle over their family’s security as she wants the Duke to be ‘free’, sources have said.
Harry is continuing to appeal against a UK High Court decision about his security, having lost several rounds of the case against the Home Office.
A friend close to Harry said the Duke’s calls to his father over the issues are going ‘unanswered’, according to a report by People magazine.
Meghan wishes the Duke ‘could let go of these lawsuits’ and ‘live in the moment’, sources told the US magazine.
The report quoted a former employee of the Sussexes’ Archewell Foundation, who said: ‘[Meghan] wants him to be free of all of this, but she also knows that because of everything he’s been through and his love for [her and their children], he can’t.

‘She wants him to live in a world where he is not burdened by this.’
Harry previously told an ITV interviewer that he ‘won’t bring my wife back to this country’ over ‘genuine concerns’ about security.
Earlier this year, a High Court judge ruled that Harry had ‘comprehensively lost’ a bid to appeal against a Home Office decision about his UK security.
He had hoped for a judicial review over a decision made by the Royal and VIP Executive Committee (RAVEC) to remove his right to automatic police protection after he decided to exit the working Royal family.
Harry still receives protection when he comes back to Britain in certain circumstances, but must give 28 days’ notice on his plans.
Harry allegedly believes that his father should intervene in the security issue to make sure his youngest son and family are safe when in the UK.
The communication between Harry and Charles, the sources told People Magazine, has moved from frustration to ‘complete silence’.

‘He’s not asking his dad for a nicer house or nicer cars. He’s asking because of the reality of the situation. He is at risk,’ a source said.
The legal battle has sparked fears that Charles may never reunite with his grandchildren Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet as Harry refuses to bring his family to the UK.
Royal experts told The Mail on Sunday that the King will become ‘more and more remote’ from the children in an ‘incredibly sad situation’.
King Charles last saw Prince Archie, five, and Princess Lilibet, three, in June 2022 when the Duke and Duchess of Sussex returned for the late Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations.
