Podcasts have become a popular vehicle for celebrities to make frank admissions, as listeners of Joe Rogan's show found out when he had Jelly Roll on.
Real name Jason Bradley DeFord, the musician recently spoke about his life on the Joe Rogan Experience and got very candid about his weight loss journey, as well as his previous drug addictions.
The star began losing weight in 2022 and has since lost almost 200 pounds.
In a very candid moment, the musician admitted that his sex life with his wife, Bunnie Xo, wasn’t in the best place when he was bigger and struggling with his addictions.

Speaking on episode 2424 of the podcast, he said: “I realized in how much my addiction had been hurting this family.
“How much my sex life with my wife was horrible. Dude I married a f****** big tiddy blonde beautiful woman, dawg.
“I married the kind of woman that makes you smile when you cry, Joe.
“I couldn’t even get aroused, I was so big. I was having to play Twister to have sex, left foot here, right foot on the edge, ‘are we in there yet, tell me if you feel something’, it was bad.”
Outside of the bedroom, the father-of-two said he was even too big to throw a football around with his son Noah Buddy, so his brother had to step into the role.
The musician was also very appreciative of his family stepping in despite his addiction.
He also added: “I realized that in addiction, the family will kind of cater to the addict.
“It's nature. Like if somebody in your family was a drug addict, you would help with their kids, you would feel a need to help in their absence — it’s what we do as a family, it’s human nature.”
Getting candid about the issues he has dealt with is nothing new for the star, as he made shocking confessions about his drug use in the past.
Speaking to People in 2023, he previously said: “I had to learn that you could drink alcohol without doing cocaine.
"It took me a long time to learn that… I've never said that, but that's real. There was a long time where I just assumed, when people told me they drank without doing cocaine, I was like, I thought we only drank to do cocaine.
“I thought [drinking] was to make us not feel like drug addicts. Nobody wants to snort cocaine sober, then you're a drug addict. But I had to relook at my relationship with alcohol like that.”
