Joe Rogan sounds alarm bells on Hollywood

As per the American podcaster, the media is moving towards an independent future. No longer are we living in a time where quality content is a result of high-quality instruments that cost loads. He feels like the effectiveness of Hollywood is ‘waning’ to the point of no escape. Their current path leads them to a point of no return.

He said, “I think we’re looking at a future where almost all credible media is independent. I really do. I just don’t think they’re going to make it.
