A lot of pre-COVID episodes deleted meanwhile recent controversial COVID episodes remain.

  I like the idea that it's the guests themselves asking for deletion because they no longer want to be associated with him.

    sounds like conjecture

    This was my thought too but I can't seem to find anything from Spotify's new policy that touches on content removal for subjects unwilling to appear on a recorded podcast. Maybe legal disputes could be playing a hand here, however the timing is too convenient. Easiest answer seems to be Spotify is doing some cleaning on their yard after the recent backlash.

    That is extremely unlikely to be true. The guests don't own the copyright, so they can't leverage that. Also, some of the guests are protesting this on Twitter.

    Extremely unlikely. Tom Segura, Theo Van are comedian friends of him. Michael Malice is an anarchist!

    Unlikely, most of the guests that were removed have other appearances on show that are still up, and most of them are his friends and long time supporters. What is more likely is that they have controversial bit or two on them so they got flagged. There are episodes that have Joe Rogan say the N-word (not directed towards anyone and in-context, something he addressed today) could be that it was these episodes that were removed.

    100% not true for Aubrey Marcus
