Joe Rogan, host of the top Spotify podcast, has signed a deal worth up to $250 million with Spotify, allowing his show, “The Joe Rogan Experience,” to be distributed across multiple platforms, including YouTube.

The show has been a Spotify exclusive since 2020 and has recorded over 2,200 episodes since its launch in 2009.

Spotify wrote in a statement, “The Joe Rogan Experience debuted in 2009, has been a Spotify exclusive since 2020, and we’re just getting started.”

“Today we announced our new multiyear partnership deal with JRE. There’s so much more ahead, including that the show will soon be available on additional platforms. JRE remains podcasting’s king, consistently ranking as the most-listened-to podcast globally and our users have ranked the show as Spotify’s Wrapped top podcast each year since 2020,” they continued.

Despite controversy over discussions during the COVID pandemic, the podcast remains widely popular, consistently ranking as the most-listened-to podcast globally.

Rogan wrote, “There’s no script of what we’re going to talk about, and it all just sort of happens in real time.”

“It’s just an actual organic conversation with people enjoying themselves, which is something we all can relate to, and something we all love to do. These conversations have changed the way I think about life immeasurably and continue to do so. I feel extremely fortunate to be able to do it,” he continued.
