Even if you don’t like it, by the numbers Joe Rogan is far more relevant, today, to any dissemination of news/ideas (and even music) than Neil Young. Fewer people bought Neil’s garbage music player than listen to a throwaway clip of Joe Rogan’s podcast. Objectively, Joe Rogan would have nothing to gain from giving Neil Young air-time, while Neil Young would have everything to gain.
Edit, to add: this is not a comment on the wild conspiracy theories that Joe Rogan entertains.
- tomjakubowski 5y agoProbably true today, but I would bet (if you're willing) that thirty years from now more people will be listening to Neil Young's music than old episodes of the JRE. Podcasts are perishable; music recordings and (especially) compositions have no expiration date.
- Fezzik 5y agoI wouldn’t take that bet, if only because I hope you’re right.
