Previously users had choice, we could download for free on stitcher on android or use apple podcasts, we could tune in live on Youtube, check in the user submitted clips on Reddit. The Spotify experience feels stale and boring even with the video and that’s before we get into the fact that as a platform, it’s just not podcast friendly.

Personal stories were shared, memes were created and the engagement that drove the podcast up to unheard of heights, is sorely lacking in the Spotify videos, there is no livestreams or hiccup moments.

JRE was more than just a podcast, it was a community for many and whilst the comment section can showcase the worst in humanity it can do the inverse also. Spotify just isn’t built to be a multimedia experience.yet Whilst the logical explanation for this would simply be that people know the only place to find Joe is now on Spotify, they would no longer need to look for him in alternative websites, the evidence throughout comment forums from Youtube to Reddit, seems to suggest people are adverse to the move and unwilling to change platforms, even for their favourite podcaster, someone they have no doubt spent years listening to. Google Trends points to a massive fall off in interest after September, the official date for the change over from the podcast being offered on all platforms, to Spotify only. However the data seems to support less people are interested in Joe than they were prior to the move. I myself have went from being an avid viewer and listener to barely checking who the guests are. Perhaps the view that the Spotify view has lost many viewers, is a reflection of our own experiences. The Joe Rogan Spotify exclusivity announcement was met with a very mixed reaction, the youtube comments definitely warranted Joes “don’t read the comments” mantra and the like / dislike ratio on videos immediately after the announcement, reflected a disgruntled audience. Without any marketing whatsoever, Joes interviews, ramblings, sound bites, sources of memes and viral clips have been an integral part of the internet & daily part of many peoples lives. Yet Joe Rogans podcast for millions of consumers across the world achieved exactly just that. So, that being said, it’s VERY rare for our attention to stay fixated on one person, event or thing beyond a few minutes, hours or even days, barring it becoming a hobby or obsession. So much that, our attention is being sought after and paid handsomely for by the highest bidder through every ad agency, marketplace and outlet you can think of. As a modern consumer, we are spoilt for choice and technology at any given time.
