Joe Rogan has a few suggestions for YouTube’s policies. The name and face of The Joe Rogan Experience often gets his entire episodes recorded and uploaded on the video streaming platform. And that sometimes means being limited to the point where he just can’t do some things.

Things like showing films, shows, and otherwise produced content could land the podcast in trouble with the streaming services’ copyright laws. So, what was it that sparked Rogan to ask YouTube to just take it easy with it all? Here’s what happened in the latest episode of The Joe Rogan Experience.

Joe Rogan loves YouTube but. . .

Joe Rogan recently secured a $250 million deal with Spotify so he could continue his body of work on The Joe Rogan Experience. Interestingly, this time around, the deal was also opened up and Rogan can now upload episodes of his podcast on YouTube, among other platforms.

That’s right, the clause that bound him to remain a Spotify exclusive was removed with the new deal and now, the UFC color commentator has greater avenues of earning from his podcast. However, it doesn’t come without its own issues. Recently, he was sitting with his friends Shane Gillis, Mark Normand, and Ari Shaffer.

“. . . we can’t play it because of f*cking YouTube,” Joe Rogan said as he tried to play an Eric Bana movie called ‘Chopper.’ “Listen YouTube I love you, but come on, don’t get silly.” Rogan would yet again think about playing something, but the same roadblock would come in the way.

“God damn it.” He exclaimed. “It’s so annoying, the thing is if you have the volume and they see the image, you get hit with a copyright claim.” Clearly, the podcaster is running into issues that were not always apparent on Spotify. Does that mean he’ll change things with Spotify?

What’s the future of JRE?

Joe Rogan reportedly rejected a deal that could have gotten him about $350 million instead of Spotify’s $250 million. Why? It is believed that the color commentator stuck with the streaming service to serve them with his loyalty.

Spotify took up Joe Rogan’s podcast when fingers were being pointed at it for its outspoken nature. Now, Rogan is supposedly just paying it all back. So, will he change things up going forward? He has much to earn if he does. However, if he hasn’t done it this year, the chances of it happening in the future are slim too.

Will Spotify decide to cut things loose at some point? It is highly unlikely, especially since Rogan has maintained his momentum on the platform even after the new deal saw his episodes being available on YouTube and such. If this persists, perhaps the podcaster will remain as loyal as ever. What are your thoughts?
