Just so we’re clear, I don’t consider neither Neil Young nor hundreds of medical professionals to be idiots. I read the open letter too, and formed an opinion about what kind of podcast is Joe Rogan’s.

So at this point what matters is that Spotify made a deal with Joe Rogan, and thus Spotify is also responsible for whatever he fancies to broadcast.

As the only way to vote in this matter is my wallet, I considered cancelling the subscription. If I did I would also try to convince other people to do the same.

And frankly, Spotify was a better service without podcasts.

I consider Neil Young to be an idiot because he claimed that he could catch HIV if a homosexual clerk handled his groceries

I'm not here to defend Joe Rogan, I just think it's stupid to get drawn into Internet fights between celebrities. Most of it is kayfabe anyway.

Just to be clear. You are ok with child rapist R Kelly and women beater Chris Brown being there, but some guy talking to a doctor/scientist is too much?

Fair enough. So what opinion did you formed on JRE? As someone who listen to bunch of his podcasts before I will be able to say is your opinion accurate.
