Joe Rogan Media Matters

The Joe Rogan Experience

Very cool and encouraging article about the fringe media, like me: 

Joe Rogan Gets New Spotify Deal Worth Up to $250 Million by Anne Steele February 2, 2024

Hit show to be distributed broadly, including on YouTube, rather than exclusively on audio-streaming service

I especially liked this bit: 

My friend Phil Bak casually asked me on Friday what I thought the marketing budget was for big media corporations.

“Like fifty million a year or something,” I guessed.

“Exactly,” Phil replied to me. “Fifty million fucking dollars. And they can’t find a single interesting thing to say.”
