I don't really care if this move is economically less profitable to Joe Rogan and don't understand why this author does either. Anyways, I have been a long term fan of JRE. In the inital phase of lockdown, Joe was pro-lockdown but in the past weeks (shrugging and not commenting at the mention of Elon Musk's tweets in Tim Poole's episode), he's switched to anti-lockdown which started around the Elon Musk episode. The episodes after that have received a lot of criticisim as well.

Now I force myself to see all his episodes with utmost skepticism and doing that I can neither enjoy nor tolerate them anymore. And now with this move to Spotify, I will finally have a reason to quit, sadly. It was great while it lasted though.
