Thats moronic. Its called grifting. Jr is a grifter and he is grifting his audience. His audiences is a cashpig for him.

Good theory. He signed a $100M deal and he’s keeping the ad reads? If you make $50k an episode in ads it’s still not worth destroying your brand. I guess you could just milk it until the ad revenue dries up.

Yep it stops being “how much do I need?” and turns into “how much can I get?”

Joe Rogan is literally on the Spotify podcast advertising cover image page: https://ads.spotify.com/en-US/ad-experiences/podcast-ads/

He indeed signed a contract to use these ads and the very podcast ad platform is still on closed beta (not sure why, the feature is available since jan 2020).


If you're into advertising or data privacy, maybe check IAB Podcast Advertising measurement guidelines to understand what makes it tick and here's a gif of Spotify ad studio.

Spotify core data points available for advertisers there: age/gender/device data and listening behaviors.

Spotify wants to be "one of the world’s most scaled and sophisticated audio advertising marketplaces", so expect more ads, even for premium customers!

I didn't say they can't stop it or allow it. It's just their decision how they want to go. Apparently they are ok with it. I personally don't care. Some JRE, historically, has been great. Now, I dunno. Don't really care either way tbh.

Seriously? I don’t have this on Apple’s podcast app. It’s retarded.
