What was said

"I've seen it a few times and one of them that I know really well where the parents stole money from the kid. He stole like $6 million. It's awful. It's like devastated him to find out."

Joe Rogan disclosed on his podcast that a famous child actor he knows personally had approximately $6 million stolen by his own parents, who used their child as a piggy bank and stopped working to rely entirely on the kid's acting income. Rogan and Schaub discussed the broader problem of stage parents exploiting children, comparing it to sports parents who tie their identity and financial security to their child's performance, often with devastating psychological consequences.
