While listeners can tune in to Rogan's podcast on Spotify, they can also watch highlights from the broadcasts on the media personality's PowerfulJRE YouTube channel, which currently has more than 13 million subscribers. The deal was widely reported at the time to be worth $100 million, although The New York Times reported in February 2022 that the true number for the three-and-a-half-year deal was "at least" $200 million. In December 2020, Rogan signed a licensing deal with Spotify for the platform's exclusive rights to broadcast the podcast.
By 2015, it had grown to become one of the world's most popular podcasts, regularly pulling in millions of views. Rogan started his podcast on YouTube back in 2009. Rogan apologized amid the backlash and also said that the clips shared on social media had been taken out of context. The former Fear Factor host also came under fire for his repeated use of the N-word across multiple episodes.
A number of artists have since returned to the platform. That also led to a backlash from several artists, including Neil Young and Joni Mitchell, who took their music off Spotify in protest against sharing a platform with the podcaster.
