He may be known as “that guy” on the NBC sitcom “Newsradio,” the leather-jacket-wearing host of the long-running reality show “Fear Factor” and one half of the color commentary team for the Ultimate Fighting Championship. However, comedian Joe Rogan is more than a guy who makes a living encouraging people to eat puréed horse anuses and through his knowledge of the many ways to put a man in a coma using only your hands, feet and knees. He’s got a unique and deep comedy style that rips the cover off of any topic he’s covering, whether it’s the usual comedy fodder like sex and drunken excess or deeper topics like nuclear power, gay marriage and the idolization of political pundits. However, he’s not above throwing in a story or two about being around human-meat punchers like Brock Lesner for some of the dumber people in the crowd who couldn’t wrap their head around political and spiritual topics if Chuck Lidell made their skull more malleable. Joe Rogan will step out on the stage of the Majestic Theatre (1925 Elm St.) at 8 p.m. Friday. Tickets are $47.50 each. More information at ticketmaster.com.

Fri., March 13, 8 p.m., 2015
