Aaron Rodgers, the renowned quarterback for the New York Jets, stirred up headlines in the initial days of 2024. He publicly addressed late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel and his association with the Epstein client list.

On the first monologue of the year, Jimmy retaliated, dubbing Aaron “Karen” Rodgers and delivering various other humorous remarks. Here’s the scoop.

The Epstein client list is the list of names that financier Jeffrey Epstein would call to promote and sell underage sex services.

Members on this list were allegedly partaking in human sex trafficking, which is a serious legal offense that could carry lengthy fines and prison time.

After Aaron Rodgers accused Jimmy of being on the client list, the internet erupted. Tabloids picked up the story immediately, and endless streams of gossip sites dug deep to verify.

According to an investigation by Reuters, currently available case documents do not contain Jimmy Kimmel’s name.

If, at the time of this publication, you have come across any information placing Jimmy Kimmel on an Epstein client list, it is advisable to verify your sources.

Reuters has highlighted that no released documents currently bear Jimmy Kimmel’s name, and any such documents that seem to exist may have been fabricated, possibly through AI.

On January 2, 2024, Aaron Rodgers initiated the controversy involving Jimmy Kimmel and Epstein by asserting, “There’s a lot of people, including Jimmy Kimmel,…hoping that (the list) doesn’t come out.”

He made this statement during an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, and his remarks quickly went viral just minutes after. Jimmy responded promptly, addressing the matter on his own show to provide further discussion.

Jimmy took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to reassure his fans and dispel any doubts about his inclusion on the Epstein list before the situation could escalate further.

Concluding his post, Jimmy fired back at Aaron Rodgers, cautioning him to “keep it up, and we will debate the facts further in court.”

The feud naturally sparked questions among fans, with many wondering why Aaron Rodgers would target Kimmel in the first place.

Jimmy speculated about his assumption on air, suggesting that Aaron Rodgers might have been attempting to retaliate for a previous instance where he humorously mocked Jimmy on Live!

According to AL, Kimmel continued, “Aaron Rodgers has a very high opinion of himself. Because of his success on the football field, he considers himself to be an extraordinary being.”

“…He thinks that because God gave him the ability to throw a ball, (that) he’s smarter than everyone else.”

Jimmy further expressed, “…either he (Rodgers) genuinely thought my name would be on (the list),… or the more probable scenario is… he’s upset with me for poking fun at his top knot.”

“He’s particularly upset…because I made fun of the fact that he (thinks) the UFO sightings…were being reported to distract us from (the list).

The tirade didn’t conclude there, however. The comedian extended his rant, directing his metaphorical criticism at Aaron’s educational background.

“(He’s) a guy who went to community college, then got into Cal on a football scholarship and didn’t graduate…he put on a  magic helmet, and that G made him a genius.”

Jimmy doesn’t believe he will receive an apology. “He’s too arrogant to know how ignorant he is,” he said.

AL confirms that if Rodgers were to apologize, Kimmel would accept it. “But he probably won’t do that…” Kimmel continued on his bit.

As of the current publication, there is no indication that Aaron Rodgers has issued an apology to Jimmy Kimmel.

As reported by AL, Variety did not receive a response from Rodgers’ team when it sought comments. It remains to be seen whether Rodgers will address the situation on social media in the coming months.
