Joe Rogan left stunned after hearing detail about the Olympic village which Usain Bolt had to stay in

Joe Rogan was left stunned when he discovered details of the Olympic village and how the likes of Usain Bolt and others would have lived during each edition of the Games.

The next Olympics will take place in Los Angeles in 2028, after Paris hosted the most recent edition last year.

Rogan has hosted the Joe Rogan Experience since 2009 and it has grown to become one of the most popular podcasts on the globe.

There have been more than 2,000 episodes recorded since its inception and the podcast has a deal with Spotify worth an estimated $250m.

And Rogan was taken aback, when speaking to wrestler Jordan Burroughs, upon hearing more of the details about how athletes who compete at Olympics eat, live and sleep.

Burroughs - who won gold in the 74kg category at London 2012 - went on to describe extensively how he and a reported 16,000 other athletes - including the likes of Bolt - were accommodated at the Olympic village in East London.

Speaking on the podcast, the wrestler said: "There are 10,000 athletes and coaches from every country on the face of the planet all put into a one-mile radius on the Olympic campus.

"There's just so much interaction and engagement. The cafeteria at the Olympic games is five football fields long. They've got a McDonald's, like a full-sized McDonald's, in the cafeteria at the Olympic village.

"They've got foods from all different parts of the country. You've got an Italian station, a Japanese station, American station, you know, and a pan-African station.

"It's insane and you literally have thousands of people swirling in at all times.

"They're really strict with the way that they administer athletes and [for] people to get in, you have to have a guest list," he added.

"If you want to get anyone in, they have to be approved seven days in advance. So let's say my wife, I'm like, 'Hey, I want my wife to come into the Olympic village and check out our living space, check out the free McDonald's,' then I have to put her on the list seven days in advance and it has to be approved by the USOPC and then also, you know, the IOC."

A clearly stunned Rogan sought to confirm with Burroughs that the athletes gathered in McDonald's weren't 'getting salads and chicken selects' and acknowledged that it probably makes sense that athletes want to treat themselves after living strictly for the years in between the Games.
