I find Spotify in general to be greatly inferior to Youtube and I listen to JRE a lot less since his move there. I'll catch all his high profile guests but I find I never listen to random podcasts because the Joe Rogan "Experience" downright sucks on Spotify.

- The constant ads in the US, they're skippable but they're obnoxiously long and frequent and annoy the crap out of me. - Spotify app performs poorly, seeking is slow, random freezes/hangs, sometimes I have to close the app completely to get an updated list of shows for a podcaster for some reason. - The interface for viewing shows is inferior. Thumbnails for shows are tiny while they have a ton of wasted space on a typical 1440p monitor.

I also think he's greatly bought into the mob's demands and engages political topics a lot less frequently since at least COVID, despite being lied about repeatedly and basically being correct in almost everything he ever said or questioned.

My favorite Joe Rogan episode was with Jesse Ventura where he tried to inject testosterone into the conversation and Ventura promptly shut him down. I find the podcast full of pseudoscience and the guests are for the most part nobodies or resume fabulists. He is a likable guy and a lot of people do love the MMA stuff so I don't see him going away anytime soon.
