Joe Rogan Tells Alex Jones He Is ‘Going to WAR’ Against Google And Big Tech
Rogan snubbed YouTube as a strike back against CENSORSHIP.

And more importantly
Looks like a good enough reason to bail as far as I'm concerned.

$100 million would probably convince me to put some commercials in my podcast. That's financial security for life for everyone in your family kind of money. I wonder if he will keep doing standup as much. As much as I like Joe as an interviewer and I think he would be fun to just hang out with, his standup has never resonated with me. I really don't find him very funny.

He has some good bits but yeah, I prefer the comedy from his friends more. At least he uses his platform to promote them.
He has talked a lot recently about setting up residency in Cali and not touring. The Spotify thing might play in but I think its truly his play against YouTube, his platform is big enough that he can drive traffic to Spotify and make moving away from YouTube etc that much easier.

On most levels, this is a win for everyone.
From the consumer side, I don't like the idea of using multiple apps for my podcasts, but we've been so spoiled in the past and this is where money and industry is getting in the way.
Joe is getting paid and probably massive guaranteed money and probably more creative control than what Google/YouTube were ever going to allow. While I'm no fan of what Spotify has done to musicians, they're clearly the lesser evil.
Google gets a swift kick in the pants. Just maybe this might get a few people to put their critical thinking hats on and reconsider their love affair with Google. The honeymoon phase is ending and they need to adapt or be left behind by a thousand cuts.
Spotify buying up Bill Simmons & Joe Rogan is bold. Competition is good for the marketplace.

Made my wedding party playlist on Spotify, paid zero for a DJ, worked really well.
Really pissed off my wife when I was going though the shortlist for which songs to choose and when I grouping tracks by genre and tempo. Turned out amazing though.

There's the nonsense political stuff, but it's a bigger issue than that. They are inconsistent in the application of their rules, the rules aren't really clear about what is and isn't allowed, and the demonetizing thing is imo worse than the removing content thing. A bunch of IT people had to start posting videos to pornhub because Youtube just randomly started taking them down, with no explanation. Eventually that was corrected but if you're a creator, your whole business model just got fucked up by arbitrary randomness. Even if you're just a hobbyist fucking around, no one should have to deal with that.
And the recent changes to "news" channels is pretty gross, and will ultimately kill most of the smaller political/news channels. Which, if people wanted cable news they would have kept their fucking cable.

It isn't only the left talking about the police shit. You don't like it, for whatever reason you have your opinion, and that's cool. But the movement just doesn't mean what he's saying it does and it's a waste of time to sit on a podcast with 90 million listeners pretending like that's a thing...

That's the biggest problem with YouTube, no competition. There's maybe 2-3 other players that could even begin to take them on, they won't as it's a massive loss making operation. Google don't run the thing for the money, it's all about the data and the power that it gives them.
Nobody, anywhere is making anything on the scale of YouTube anytime soon. If they do eventually die it will be at the hands of many smaller players taking a few million people here and there.

Yeah, I heard him saying that, he talked about Colorado before too. That's more believable. If Texas legalized marijuana maybe, until then that's a hard no.
