They made a bunch of Gimlet Media podcasts exclusive to Spotify soon after they bought them, it was irritating at the time but for me at least it was pretty easy to just find some other podcasts to replace them with.

And I suppose more famously they did make Joe Rogan exclusive to Spotify as well, and he's probably the biggest name in podcasting

Incidentally, Neil Young pulling off Spotify in protest of Joe Rogan, inspired me to start a vinyl collection this year.
