“#Spotify staff reportedly outraged by Joe Rogan\u2019s show, insiders say<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

Joe Rogan, the notoriously polarizing host of \u201cThe Joe Rogan Experience,\u201d America\u2019s most popular podcast in 2020, is upsetting some Spotify staffers, according to a report. Employee complaints, however, fall on the deaf ears of company executives who paid the 53-year-old comedia<\/a>n more than $100 million to exclusively stream on the platform.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m personally bothered by his transphobic comments and am concerned with the way he might spread misinformation,\u201d one Spotify employee wrote last fall on an internal networking channel on the app<\/a> Fishbowl, Insider reported<\/a> Tuesday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A former employee told the publication that, during his time at Spotify, the decision to sign a deal with Rogan was the most contentious one the company made.<\/p>\n

However, another employee told Insider that it\u2019s only \u201ca loud minority of people who are outraged\u201d at Rogan.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While only a subgroup of staff may be upset, their numbers were sufficient to merit a town hall meeting in September to address that they felt Rogan\u2019s show was at times anti-transgender, the Wall Street Journal reported<\/a> in October. A request by some staffers for \u201cThe Joe Rogan Experience\u201d to receive editorial supervision was denied by the company and Rogan subsequently retweeted a video mocking the employees for being oversensitive.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cHe is the biggest voice by far that\u2019s going to accelerate our business,\u201d an employee told the WSJ at the time. \u201cGetting him on Spotify \u2014 and soon exclusively \u2014 is going to help bring a lot more audiences onto the platform, and hopefully we can spread that to other programming.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the case of Joe Rogan, a total of 10 meetings have been held with various groups and individuals to hear their respective concerns,\u201d Spotify CEO Daniel Ek said in a September meeting, Vice reported at the time<\/a>. \u201cAnd some of them want Rogan removed because of things he\u2019s said in the past.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to company staffers, Rogan infuriated fellow Spotify podcast stars, including Prince Harry and Meghan Markle<\/a>, after telling 21-year-olds not to get the COVID-19 vaccine, a claim on which he subsequently backpedaled.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Spotify did not immediately return The Post\u2019s request for comment.\u00a0\n <\/p><\/div>\n
