EPISODE SUMMARY

In this episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, featuring Narrator and Narrator, Joe Rogan Experience #1917 - Fedor Gorst explores Russian Pool Prodigy Fedor Gorst Breaks Down Hustling, Discipline, Greatness Joe Rogan interviews 22‑year‑old Russian pool champion Fedor Gorst about his journey from Moscow’s disciplined billiard schools to becoming one of the world’s top players. They dive into the contrasting cultures of pool in Russia, Europe, the U.S., and the Philippines, exploring gambling, hustling, and the subculture around legendary events like the Derby City Classic. Gorst explains training methods, equipment choices, mental routines, and the physical toll of elite play, including back problems and scoliosis from years at the table. They also touch on politics restricting Russian athletes, the economics of being a pro pool player, performance‑enhancing drugs in action matches, and how to grow pool as a mainstream spectator sport.
