Well, this is going to get everyone going, so take a seat or hold on to your socks, what ever method you prefer to get it together, this may be a bumpy ride.

UFC commentator Joe Rogan has come out and blasted the Haka on his podcast and called it "stupid", fair to say, Kiwis have not responded well. Along with US comedian Hannibal Buress, Rogan was discussing why native Americans would perform a traditional war cry before he turned his attention to New Zealand:

Fun times on the podcast today with @urijahfaber and @cody_nolove!
