AUSTIN, TEXAS: Joe Rogan, a well-known UFC commentator, is a leading figure in podcasting. Over time, Joe Rogan has transformed 'The Joe Rogan Experience' into the best podcast in the world.

During the recent episode of his 'JRE' podcast, Rogan highlighted the "great things and drawbacks" about podcasts. As a trailblazer in the field, he possesses extensive knowledge of both the potential advantages and drawbacks.

What are benefits of podcasting?

Over the years, Rogan has welcomed a diverse array of notable individuals on his show. Guests such as Elon Musk, Mike Tyson, Quentin Tarantino, Mark Zuckerberg, and many others have graced the list of participants.

In a recent episode, Rogan had the pleasure of hosting Jimmy Carr, a British-Irish comedian, presenter, writer, and actor. During their conversation, the two delved into the limited information available on stand-up comedians.

During their discussion, Rogan asserted that his podcast has evolved into an archive of sorts, as he consistently explores the creative processes of comedians.

He remarked, “One of the great things about podcasts is that it has served as an archive. Where you can, I mean, I’ve had dozens and dozens of conversations with great comics. Where I have asked them about their process."

Given his status as one of the most renowned podcast hosts globally, it was only logical for Rogan to secure an incredibly lucrative deal. The UFC analyst signed an exclusive agreement with Spotify to distribute his podcasts online.

The UFC commentator entered into an agreement with the online streaming service Spotify in 2020, providing them with exclusive access to his podcast releases. Furthermore, the terms of the agreement are set to remain in effect until the conclusion of 2023. Notably, this deal is valued at a staggering $200 million.

According to a report from The New York Times, even Rogan himself was reportedly taken aback by the enormity of the sum involved.

He stated, “Weirdly richer. Like it doesn’t register. (It) seems fake. It feels gross (discussing the terms), Especially right now when people can’t work."
