“Don’t Think Rogan Can Be Canceled”- Jordan Peterson Thunderously Defends Joe Rogan Amid Spotify Controversy

Joe Rogan is a revolutionary figure in the podcasting domain. Whatever he does, or says, creates a massive social impact with his large fan following. Being famous has its perks, obviously. But it also makes one susceptible to scrutiny.

Being the outspoken character Rogan is, he doesn’t hold back from making his opinions heard. His podcast, the Joe Rogan Experience, has been at the helm of many controversies in the past.

Recently, audio-sharing platform Spotify deleted over a hundred episodes of his podcast which was accused of spreading misinformation. This invited many reactions from various social commentators, some of whom supported the iconic UFC commentator. Renowned psychologist Jordan Peterson, too, defended Rogan and said it would be a mistake for Spotify to let him go.

Peterson claimed, “As long as he is careful… like he is. I don’t think Rogan can be canceled.” “So even if Spotify dumps him it’s like who’s dumping who here. Rogan, he’s on Spotify, it is not necessarily. Spotify might be on Rogan, it’s not so clear,” he added.

He laid down the possible outcome of Spotify de-platforming Rogan. He explained, “So what’s gonna happen? They kick him off? Well, he will just have another platform like tomorrow and he will have all the money Spotify gave him which was actually quite a lot of money.”

Joe Rogan spends thousands of dollars on firearms

Rogan, who is a popular podcast host, an entrepreneur, and an integral part of the UFC commentator team, enjoys a luxurious lifestyle. He never shies from following his heart and doing things that please him.

Apart from being a vocal gun-rights activist, Rogan also has a knack for possessing firearms. He even called guns the “best martial arts” on the Lex Fridman podcast.

Rogan himself owns thousands of dollars’ worth of guns and also likes to learn the art of using them. In an Instagram post, Rogan shared a video of him at a shooting range, enjoying a shooting drill.
