Some staff inside the company feel alienated by Spotify’s hosting of certain The Joe Rogan Experience (JRE) episodes, according to copies of some of the questions presented to the meeting obtained by Motherboard…. Spotify workers held 10 separates meetings with CEO Daniel Ek expressing concerns about their new hire. The trouble began with news reports of tensions within Team Spotify after parts of Rogan’s back catalogue joined the company’s lineup. Now, they’re demanding Rogan change his ways … or else. That group grumbled when Rogan endorsed Sanders, but that was but a warm-up act. Those qualities, along with an unwillingness to support trans female athletes competing against other women, also put a target on his back for the social justice mob. He’s the furthest thing from a “snowflake,” and that’s catnip to Red State USA. Rogan’s common-sense attitude, and his lust for hunting and MMA, made him both refreshing and fearless. Rogan appears left-of-center in several ways, going so far as to endorse Vermont Sen. Conservatives, in particular, cheered his pro-free speech approach even if he wouldn’t go near a MAGA hat. He cracked wise with conspiracy hurler Alex Jones, talked policy with former presidential candidate Andrew Yang and chatted up any number of MMA stars.Īlong the way Rogan’s audience learned to trust him in a way that isn’t easy to accomplish. The “NewsRadio” alum burnished his podcasting bona fides by talking to everyone about, well, everything. Joe Rogan got more than a reported $100 million payday in his epic Spotify deal earlier this year. The comic turned podcaster inherited the Cancel Culture crusade, and it’s flaring up on him months before he officially segues to Spotify full time.
