Joe Rogan Gets New $250 Million Deal From Spotify, This One Being Non-Exclusive

I'd assume Joe Rogan is more than on his way to being the first-ever billionaire podcaster, all the haters be damned. I do not believe his first deal with Spotify was ever published, but with this one being $250 million....gotta believe that bad boy was in the mid-9 figures. A truly wild ride to the top, fueled by Joey Diaz and Eddie Bravo. 

I used to be a way bigger Joe Rogan fan than I am now, but it's nice to see him continuing to beat cancel culture. It felt like every 2 months back in 2020 that we had Spotify employees organizing "walkouts" after he'd say something they didn't approve of. They even threatened to STRIKE in 2022 if his podcasts weren't censored! Absolutely hilarious looking back on. They really thought that one was going to get out of the Slack group and take down big, bad Joe Rogan! Better luck next time, I guess.

This deal is being reported as non-exclusive, which means we'll see Rogan back on YouTube/X. I'd love to meet somebody who would watch a 3-hour podcast on Twitter, but I guess there's an audience for everything!

There was some speculation that Rogan was going to leave Spotify and start his own media company. I would've loved to see how far he could've gone with that, but for someone like Rogan, it wasn't worth the added stress.
