So again what does taking Rogan off Spotify do? He can still have a YouTube channel. He has enough money that he can probably start his own hosting format. Do we arrest him?

At least brave patriot Neil young took a brave stand and took his business to notoriously good and moral company Amazon. It’s 2022 and we’re still having moral panics about the radio man like it’s 2002 and we’re mad at Howard stern.

I was just trying to understand what the next step is. Getting him off of Spotify doesn’t mean he can’t upload to the countless other sites or start his own platform. So what do you do when he keeps doing the show and also gets the audience back that left once he went to Spotify.

Deplatforming from the biggest sites actually works. LMAO at Simple Joe starting his own platform though. That's worked super well for the dozens of grifters that have tried it since Trump got banned from Twitter.

It means he still has an audience and and in fact will most likely have a bigger audience even after Spotify. He lost a portion of his audience because of his move to Spotify.

If Spotify can refuse to air his podcast then so can iTunes (or other popular podcast outlet of choice)

The Rob, just take a step back and look at what you are arguing. You are saying that doing SOMETHING is in fact pointless and should therefore not be done. You are arguing for doing NOTHING. Would something not be better than nothing?

I mean I get it. The bootsy-rear end Tequila knock off with the "Danhausen." line is pretty perfect, so the immediate reaction is understandably that it'd be hard to improve on it. And I can also understand the fear that Danhausen gets saddled with some generic trap song which doesn't fit his personality at all, but Ruckus usually manages to capture each wrestler's character pretty well so it could be amazing.

E:

in case someone hasn't heard it, this is Danhausen's current theme.

I bet Ruckus could have a fun take on it.

I find it very funny someone as PR savvy as The Rock didn't even wait a millisecond to see the reaction to Rogan's "apology," just couldn't wait to post and talk about how much he loves Joe. But perhaps The Rock just lives in the future and is always ahead of the curve, he knew Osama was dead before anyone else.

Maybe something better who knows? Why not try and find out? You sound like every Gen X who is always arguing well both sides are actually bad so I won't support anything. Or like people I knew in high school who thought the idea of doing anything was terrible. Why is this your hill? You just arguing to argue.

KISS ME KRIS

I would not put Joe Rogan in a jail. it would only encourage him. That said, wtf lol. Dude is full Alex Jones at this point, deplatform him.

Also any discussion of "ethical" streaming platforms needs to start with the discussion of economics. In the old days, you bought physical media and if the artist had some negotiating stroke they'd get 5% So 5% of $15USD is $0.75 per sale goes back to the artist or split with artist and their management. The rest is taken by distro chain, label, and studio. Self recording and distro helped change out those margins and in some cases, got the artist more cash or would push them further into debt since physical media distribution is a money sink. Now streaming gets the artist a flat fee of around $0.001 per unique stream. That effectively caps the amount of money an artist will ever see. A million unique listens gets you a check for $1000.

Congrats, we've destroyed art.
