I share a similar story to yours. For a while, I used to call Spotify the 'Joe Rogan app' because that's all I ever used the Spotify app for.

It's because of JRE that I discovered this whole new world of podcasting.

I still listen to every other podcast through the Apple Podcasts app. The nice thing about the Spotify exclusive podcast was it is much easier to skip ads. JRE is the only podcast I’ve listened to on Spotify that has first party ads you can just fast forward through.

It was an NPR pledge drive that really drove me to podcasts
