Joe Rogan says he will be staying with Spotify even after receiving a $100 million podcast offer from a right-wing video platform.
Rogan, 54, has made headlines back to back over the past few weeks for being accused of spreading false information about COVID-19, and most recently, a video compilation of him using the N-word. Despite his ongoing controversial behavior, Spotify has stuck beside him, and Rogan plans on doing the same.
“No, Spotify has hung in with me, inexplicably; let’s see what happens,” Rogan told a crowd during a recent comedy show, referring to news about an offer he received from right-wing online video platform Rumble. The company reportedly offered Rogan $100 million to come over to their platform. Rogan signed a similar deal with Spotify back in 2020. Complex Media reports the Rumble deal includes a four-year contractual commitment.
Rogan has since apologized for his antics, but people aren’t here for it and have been calling for Spotify to remove Rogan from their service. Musical artists have also been pulling their music from the platform in the midst of all the drama.
