Spotify just deleted over 100 episodes from the Joe Rogan Experience (JRE) podcast, and it looks like.
But in order to try and save face, the platform did say that they're putting up a content advisory warning on any topics talking about the pandemic. However, many people aren't too convinced by this move, arguing that Spotify still doesn't have a concrete COVID misinformation policy, unlike its competitors.
Furthermore, it doesn't seem that Rogan will stop. In a recent 10-minute Instagram video, the former UFC color commentator defended himself, saying that all of the ideas being shared in his podcast are "not that prepared or fleshed out," because he has them in real-time. In other words, the topics on his podcast are never prepared, which is likely what makes them controversial.
For now, it remains to be seen whether Spotify will keep looking to protect its investment in JRE.
