How popular is The Joe Rogan Experience?
The Joe Rogan podcast’s massive listenership numbers have been revealed, showing just how big the figure and his podcast really are.
The Joe Rogan Experience is the most popular podcast in the world. Millions around the world tune in for long-form interviews and conversations with an array of guests including celebrities, scientists, and comedians. But just how many people are listening to it? Spotify have been testing a new feature that displays a podcast’s follower count.
The data shows that The Joe Rogan experience has 14.5 million followers on Spotify as of late March 2024. Now that Joe Rogan’s podcast is no longer exclusive to Spotify the data isn’t all inclusive, meaning his overall numbers are likely quite a bit higher.
With 16.4 million YouTube subscribers alone, Joe Rogan’s podcast has a huge influence in platforms beyond Spotify too. With Edison Research reporting that 42 million people in the US listened to podcasts in 2023, Joe Rogan seems to be taking a huge portion of the overall podcast audience for the US.
Joe Rogan gets listeners from all over the world. Data suggests that his audience is skewed towards younger, male audiences. The range of interviewees means that audience data from episode to episode can vary.
The man himself has been at the centre of a number of controversies over the years, both for his own views and for that of his guests. Despite this, his podcast remains the world’s number 1. In fact, his controversy can even lead to greater listenership.
Joe Rogan signed an exclusive deal with Spotify back in 2020. His impressive following of 14.5 million has been built in the last 4 years since then. In February this year, Joe Rogan signed to another deal with Spotify. However, they ended their exclusivity terms allowing The Joe Rogan Experience to be distributed to other platforms.
The Joe Rogan Experience is now available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, YouTube, and further.
