Did Dwayne Johnson mention erectile dysfunction on any podcast or TV appearance?

1. The SNL sketch: a clear, scripted joke about “erections”

Dwayne Johnson hosted SNL in May 2017 and took part in a commercial parody titled “Enhancement Drug” (often summarized as an “Erectile Dysfunction” sketch) in which his character endorses a fictional male‑enhancement product and quips “But my erections are fantastic” — language that directly ties Johnson’s performance to erectile‑dysfunction humor (SNL transcript) ^[1]. IndieWire’s review of that episode singled out the commercial parody titled “Erectile Dysfunction” as one of the night’s standout bits, confirming how the sketch was presented and received ^[2].

2. Differentiating scripted comedy from personal disclosure

The SNL occurrence is a scripted comedy routine in which Johnson plays a character; it is not a news interview or personal medical disclosure. Sources show Johnson used erectile‑dysfunction material as a comedic premise on SNL, not as a confession or earnest description of his own health ^{[1] [2]}. If your question seeks an admission about Johnson personally experiencing ED, available reporting does not contain such a claim — the SNL material is satire and performance ^[1].

3. Podcast appearances: no evidence in the provided results

Search results include a Podchaser profile listing Johnson’s podcast credits, but that page is an index and does not document an episode where Johnson discusses erectile dysfunction specifically ^[3]. Multiple podcast listings and shows about erectile dysfunction appear in the results (Erection IQ/Erectile Dysfunction Radio, The Curbsiders, etc.), but none in the supplied set link Johnson as a guest discussing ED; therefore, available sources do not mention Johnson talking about erectile dysfunction on a podcast ^{[4] [5] [6]}.

4. How reporting framed the SNL bit — comedic, not clinical

Coverage and transcripts treat the 2017 sketch as a parody of male‑enhancement drug ads and bathroom‑humor territory: the Daily Mail summarized Johnson vouching for “Xentrex” and its claim to end erectile dysfunction “instantly,” and the SNL transcript reproduces the punchline about erections being “fantastic” as part of the gag ^{[7] [1]}. IndieWire’s recap puts the sketch in the context of the episode’s comedic highlights, reinforcing that the ED reference was entertainment content rather than public health commentary ^[2].

5. Why this distinction matters — context and potential misinterpretation

Public figures often deliver risqué jokes in scripted comedy that later circulate as “statements” out of context. The sources show Johnson’s ED line appears in a fictional ad sketch; absent evidence of a clinical, personal, or journalistic discussion, readers should not conflate a scripted SNL joke with a real‑world medical admission ^{[1] [2]}. If you’ve seen the line shared on social media as a personal confession, the reporting here does not support that framing; it documents a comedy sketch instead ^[1].

6. If you need verification or a primary clip

The SNL transcript (archived on SNL transcripts sites) and contemporary reviews cite the sketch and reproduce the lines ^{[1] [2]}. For a primary source, look for the SNL episode video or official NBC clips of the “Enhancement Drug” commercial parody; the supplied dataset doesn’t include the NBC clip itself but does include transcript and press coverage ^{[1] [2]}.

Limitations and next steps: the supplied sources focus on the 2017 SNL sketch and podcast directories; they do not include exhaustive archives of every Johnson TV or podcast appearance. Available sources do not mention Johnson discussing erectile dysfunction on any podcast or in other TV interviews beyond the SNL sketch ^{[1] [3] [4]}. If you want, I can search for video clips of the SNL sketch or comb full episode logs and podcast episode transcripts to confirm whether any later interview contained similar references.
