Aaron Rodgers Defends His Jimmy Kimmel ‘Epstein Log’ Comment On ‘Joe Rogan Experience’
Aaron Rodgers is still on damage control, stemming from his suggestion that late-night host and professional crybaby Jimmy Kimmel's name could appear on Jeffrey Epstein's flight log.
Rodgers got under Kimmel's skin, and ABC/Disney's, after making the wild suggestion on The Pat McAfee Show.
Not only was Rodgers barred from appearing on PMS, his critics amplified his newfound ‘conspiracy theorist’ characterization, compounding the ‘anti-vaxxer’ attacks.
Rodgers tackled the Kimmel backlash, appearing on a recent episode of The Joe Rogan Experience. Speaking with another beloved ‘conspiracy theorist,’ Rodgers asserted that his comments on Kimmel were taken out of context.

The 40-year-old QB shared that Kimmel didn't want the list to come out, never explicitly saying Kimmel was a part of Epstein's flight log of sex traffickers.
"Nobody watched the f**king clip," Rodgers said. "That’s why. They just saw a headline and [were like], ‘Oh it’s the anti-vax guy again, let’s hammer him.’ "
