Someone will RSS feed it and you can just use your normal podcast feed anyway. Only thing is if you want the video it will be Spotify only.
Got to be honest, I haven’t bothered with a full episode in a long time and have only occasionally been clicking on some JRE Clips from Youtube.

Class and very much spot on.
I don't find his comedy in the slightest bit funny.
I feel it leans towards the "brah" crowd and he has stuck with it from the word go. Although granted, I haven't studied his art form in depth but scanned through various performances from day dot and not one appealed in any way shape or form.
Or it could just be that it doesn't translate to us across the pond? Would the yanks get Stewart Lee? I'm not sure....
Either way, it isn't easy standing up in front of thousands of people and trying to be funny so you have to give him credit (even if his material is complete and utter s
te)

i do worry what it’ll do for the show, one of the main selling points of the show is that they don’t have anyone telling them what to do. he created his own platform to do that without any outside pressure, and it works amazingly well.
i’m torn about will spotify try and do anything/ change anything? on one hand I’d say- why would they? they now have a big brand podcast, to bring people to spotify. they don’t have to do anything in terms of producing/ advertising/ promotion. Rogan is basically handing them millions of potential users on a plate. why would they not just take their cut and let him do his thing?!? on the other- will a main stream platform like spotify actively promote someone sitting in his nasa space suit getting high as a mofo with redban talking nonsense for 3hrs, then having joey diaz on calling everyone ‘cocksuckas’ and taking about robbing people while he was a coke fiend.......
doesn’t make too much of a difference to me, i’ll still listen, i’ll just do it through spotify instead of the apple podcast app.

He will have data on his listeners but I'd be surprised if this alone was enough for some to think 'ah, better get a Spotify membership'. I think it's a statement of intent and a halo product rather than a cold hard business decision that will directly pay for itself.
I, like many it seems, only dip in for the occasional podcast when it's something a bit unusual/special that interests me (the navy UFO guy, the disease specialist and RDJ being the only 3 this year I think) so I can and will quite happily go without.

Yeah I love the joe Rogan podcast, I think it’s about time someone took a pot shot at youtube.
Does anyone find his comedy funny though? I tried a Netflix special and it was not funny in the slightest?

- vegancat
The Harvina Weinstein standup was great too.
I can’t stand a majority of US standup - don’t start me on Kevin Hart - awful.
I do like Joe as well as some chapelle and Anthony jeselnik.
Think I’ve got an odd sense of humour.
For me even YouTube is becoming intolerable with the amount of adverts there are as they try and promote YouTube Premium more and more.
I suspect Joe can see the way all of these platforms are going and realises it's only a matter of time before they're all paid for in one way or another.
Given that, along with an offer of $100,000,000, you simply don't turn it down. Especially if they give you the same 100% creative freedom you've always had.
Smart move, don't hate the player, hate the game.

It's OK, but he's probably the weakest out of all his usual comedian mates. No-one dares tell him that because he's got the most popular podcast that promotes the rest of them.Does anyone find his comedy funny though? I tried a Netflix special and it was not funny in the slightest?
I also think he massively overvalues Joey Diaz's sense of humour. I think Bert is probably the funniest out of the bunch. Still prefer most British comedians though.

Was nothing to do with Youtube. Most of JRE's listeners don't watch the show, they listen to it. It's about Spotify competing on audio with other audio platforms, not them moving into video.
So, how do adverts work on Spotify?
I started off listening (while driving) to jr on YouTube. This would normally mean random adverts at the start and maybe every so often a couple interruptions.
I then found it was easier to listen using a podcast app as they were all in numerical order and a blurb on the guest. Much easier, however switching from YouTube it was a bit of a surprise to now have jr read out 10 mins (maybe shorter but feels like it) of adverts. So yes, I had heard of zoom before 8 weeks ago as I’ve had jr read out scripted stories of how great it is for months!
So, YouTube is paid for random ads, jr as a podcast he reads out his own sponsors. What are Spotify ads and format?
I’ve got Spotify free version through sky app and the only advert is to upgrade to premium. Is that it?

Remains to be seen if they will stick to the format of ads at the start, buy you would imagine that,like F1 on ITV, or Sky boxing, they will cut to ads when you rather they didn't.

As Joe is now making his money from Spotify rather than his own advertisers, no need for ads at start.
If he is smart, he will continue to do the adverts himself though, in his own style. But $100m needs to be recouped.
We won't know till he actually broadcasts on Spotify.

Must say I'm a little disappointed with the move. A lot of the popularity came from him not being tied to a platform and the incredible power he built as a (primarily) one man production, he has criticised people being tied to things before that stops them being honest, especially TV shows and bigged up the freedom that he has doing his own independent podcast.
He certainly deserves the money and puts a lot of time into his podcasts. I saw that a musician needs to get 26 billion streams of their songs to earn the same amount they are paying Joe. I wonder if he has to do a certain amount of them as part of his contract.
It will be interesting to see how the advertising ties in with it. Does he promote Spotify's advertisers at the start, or does the show get interrupted in the middle somewhere, etc.
adverts not interrupting the discussion has been something Joe insisted on, at cost of revenue to himself, so it would be a disappointment if that changed.He certainly deserves the money and puts a lot of time into his podcasts.

Not sure how I feel about this, YouTube is a far-from-perfect platform with videos being demonitised for trivial reasons even at Joe's status level, and with this being a serious complaint (as regular listeners of some of Joe's not on-message circle know well) I wonder what the boundaries are - the Joe we know and love would not agree to be gagged by the man but the corporate world investing 100M doesn't work like that (although I suspect that figure is misleading, more likely a revenue sharing max-achievable speculative figure than a sign-on cheque per se.

I agree - his shows have kept me entertained for many hours and I wish him all the best, he deserves all the success.
I already have Spotify premium so I'm not affected, but the cynic in me can't help but think implicit advertising will be involved.
That said, at least we all get to finally see what they're looking at on the TV screen without YouTube AI algo flagging copyright!
The show is supposedly going to remain free (you'll just have to get it through Spotify instead of whichever service you were using before) so no-one is losing out:I already have Spotify premium so I'm not affected, but the cynic in me can't help but think implicit advertising will be involved.

... Rogan gets a stack of cash (good for him, he worked hard and made a great product).
... Spotify get a massive attraction for their podcasting platform (and video platform too) and their stock price spiked on the news making their company's value instantly increase by more than the reputed 100mil they are paying him over a number of years.
... And the cherry on the cake, it's one in the eye for Youtube and their censorious ways. Just the amount of awareness it's raised about YTs mistreatment of their base of content creators has been worth any additional hassle of signing up for a free Spotify account to get the podcast, in my opinion.

Indeed... Alex Jones wasted no time talking about it on his show, very entertaining but he exaggerated enough that Joe asked him repeatedly to take it down which Alex did.I found a copy:

YouTube adverts are dictated by the channel. There's a few I watch who don't carry adverts, or if they do there's just one at the beginning. If you're sitting through a video and there's 6 adverts then that's the channel, not Youtube.I suspect Joe can see the way all of these platforms are going and realises it's only a matter of time before they're all paid for in one way or another.
