"There was presidents involved and former presidents involved that were contacting Spotify. Oh yeah. Trying to get me removed for vaccine misinformation. And it happened. It turned out to be right. All of it. Not a single fucking apologize."
Joe Rogan disclosed that sitting and former U.S. presidents directly contacted Spotify during the COVID-19 pandemic attempting to have his podcast removed from the platform for alleged vaccine misinformation. Rogan said he lost many sponsors due to coordinated campaigns involving significant money and multiple political action committees. He credits Spotify being a non-American company and his number-one status in 90 countries with saving his show from cancellation.
