Has he done anything worse than Stern? If he was as bad as people are making him out to be I doubt he would get this deal.
He's worse. Cuz he pretends that he's something he's not. Oh, Im impartial but this obamagate stuff is scary. Stern was always more comedian than political commentator. And that both sides are the same shyt is what is making republicans stronger. Cuz it divides the left more than the right.

This is a reason I always hated Jon Stewart. He ushered a lot of this bs in.

The open podcast era may be ending now.
Will be interesting to see what happens to Ringer (Bill Simmons) podcasts now. Spotify spent $200 million to acquire them and there was never any talk of going exclusive :patrice:


And if they spent $200m on Ringer, Rogan must have received crazy money, especially to go exclusive.

I hope it does nothing but I know better than that. I like a lot of The Ringer content especially on entertainment but they been testing the waters with exclusives for other platforms. Just a matter of time before the pods are behind a paywall :snoop:

Joe Rogan is a stand up comedian.

I never got into any Ringer podcasts besides BS Report. People say Binge Mode and Rewatchables are great but I never had time to listen to them.

Bill Simmons fell the fukk off, podcast is straight garbage. Turning into First Take/Undisputed in the podcast form. Lately I'm just hate listening to it so I can read comments making fun of it.

Joe Rogan on the other hand fell off and went right wing, so I'm not going to miss it at all. I think the last podcast of his that I listened to was with Stephen Dubner a couple of months ago. Everything else is just a parade of YouTube 'intellectuals' and his buddies spinning conspiratorial right wing ideas and repeating same stories. Good riddance.

Regardless of what you think of him (I personally don't care for him and his alt-right gateway drug) - this is a huge get for Spotify.. stock up 16% on this news :picard:.

They really seem to be planting their flag as the podcast leader for the foreseeable future - with this, the Gimlet & Ringer acquisitions, not to mention the JBP.

Binge Mode and Rewatchables are in fact entertaining as fukk.. Jason Concepcion is one of the best entertainment podcasters around. Bill Simmons is much better on Rewatchables than he is with his current sports pods.

He should give up sports and do movies full time.
