Podcasting is the perfect medium for anyone living busy lifes who still want to catch up on the world or get some inspiration. This is my top 10 list of Joe Rogan motivational podcasts with reasons for listening to in no particular order.
1. Gary Vaynerchuk
If it’s making money or hearing success stories that get you going. Gary Vaynerchuk is the guy to listen to. His no nonsense attitude to grinding, hustling and working towards success is guarenteed to get you motivated to take that next step with that business plan you’ve been working on / putting off.
Why it’s motivational
Garys high energy is infectious and his attitude and advice to being an entrepreneur are invaluable.
Good if
You are looking a real motivational boost to get that next business plan or side hustle started.
Bad if
Gary is very high energy, if you can’t handle listening to that kind of person, you’re not going to enjoy it. Not everything in there will still work, not all his advice is
2. Jordan Peterson
Jordan Peterson is a qualified clinical psychologist and tenured professor of psychology and is one of the most fascinating public figures in modern society. He has been on the Joe Rogan Experience a number of times now for good reason.
If you’re extremely left wing, this mightn’t be the guy to listen to as it might not suit the usual echo chamber you might be used to. Wrongly labeled as being anti-feminist or anti-Trans he has drawn some heated debates (such as the Cathy Newman interview) in both new media and traditional television.
Peterson is guided by logic and is careful with his words, a rare trait in todays society. His book 12 rules for life (available on amazon) has topped best seller lists in the USA, Canada & UK for good reason.
Why it’s motivational
Jordan Peterson has rules for life for both happiness and discipline, his simple concepts such as clean up your room before you
Petersons attitude is become a better person and it will filter into everything in life.
Good if
You are genuinely trying to understand human behaviour and life hacks for turning bad situations around.
Bad if
You’re not a fan of logic or listening to alternative viewpoints.

3. Jocko Willink
Jocko Willink is an American podcaster, author, and retired United States Navy SEAL. He received the Silver Star and Bronze Star for his service in the Iraq War. Willink was a commander of SEAL Team 3’s Task Unit Bruiser during the Battle of Ramadi.
Another repeat star on the show, Jocko isn’t for everyone, he’s very serious and full on, having lived a military life and experienced some really brutal moments through it. His own podcast ‘Jocko Podcast’ is a good show in itself but a lot more serious and gritty.
Why it’s motivational
Like Peterson but however in different methods, Jocko believes in the importance of
Good if

Good if
If you genuinely want to turn around your life. Getting in better shape and improving your diet play a huge role in that. Rhonda explains the science behind it with incredible detail without being patronising and is incredibly easy to listen to.
Bad If
You can’t handle listening to a strong independent woman who’s probably smarter than you or if you like making excuses for eating poorly and not exercising.
5. David Goggins
David Goggins a retired Navy SEAL and former USAF Tactical Air Control Party member who served in Iraq and Afghanistan. He is an ultramarathon runner, ultra-distance cyclist, triathlete and world record holder for the most pull-ups done in 24 hours.
Another Navy Seal on the list is a credit to the incredible mindset it takes to become one and how well they apply their training and discipline to later on in life.
Good If
You’re looking for motivation to workout
Bad If
Hard to say – if you’re not a fan of the military mindset it probably isn’t for you, this isn’t for everyone but his story and his determination to be the best at everything he puts his mind to is inspiring in itself.
