Would have to be one, if not the best, Sports documentary series ever made.

Second that

I’m watching Donnie Brasco. For all the love Pacino gets, Lefty is his best performance.

 

[Val Keating]

This is a huge coup for Spotify

What do they get out of it?

What do they get out of it?

The biggest podcast exclusively on their platform. Advertising $$$. Rogan must have been paid big.

 

[Val Keating]

With platforms like Luminary and Spotify buying up all the podcasts, the days of free content are numbered

I hope the podcast isn't going to cut in & out with ads.

Same. That’d be a huge sell out.

I wonder if Joe picked up a share allocation with his contract?

I wonder if Joe picked up a share allocation with his contract?

Who knows. He’s pretty open so he’ll probably talk about it. He’s had the shits with Youtube for a while though

Patton Oswalt is the media version of sleeping pills.

15 minutes and I had to turn it off.

$US100m no?

$US100m no?

Has it come out? Got a link?

I hope he doesn’t start censoring himself more...

Has anyone watched D’Elias latest special? I only lasted about 10 minutes. It was pretty bad. Is it worth giving another shot?

$US100m no?

Latest reports are $US150M over 11 years

Good on him, deserves every cent.

Crazy to think it just started off with him just talking s**t with his friends and putting it on YouTube.

FMD they paid Gimlet $80m for the entire company.

FMD they paid Gimlet $80m for the entire company.

$200m for the whole of The Ringer. No one has the audience cut through close to Rogan. The dude had presidential candidates reach out to be on his show, which he basically told to * off.

I imagine Dan Carlin would be getting big offers, Casefile too.

 

[The Warlord]

Crazy to think it just started off with him just talking s**t with his friends and putting it on YouTube.

And how he's a massively paid gonzo journalist.

This era's Hunter S Thompson.

That’s huge raps. Not sure if I see him in that light tbh...though he does like to trip a lot.
