Joe Rogan dethroned as number one Spotify podcast by random show\u2019s first episode Spotify: Joe RoganJoe Rogan has, once again, been knocked off the top spot on the Spotify podcast charts by a new show that has come completely out of the blue. For years, way before he decided to sign a deal with Spotify, the Joe Rogan Experience has been the biggest podcast on the internet by a comfortable margin. The UFC commentator has hosted his show since 2009, first starting out as only having fellow comedians on as guests before branching out too all different corners. Now, he has a wide range of familiar faces that pop up to talk about everything you think of \u2013 especially when it comes to the weird and wacky side of the internet. That move to Spotify, which netted Rogan a reported $200 million deal, hasn\u2019t had too many knock-on effects for his show. It still brings in massive listener figures after all. Though, there are some times it loses out on top spot on the podcast charts. Joe Rogan overtaken by random new podcast on Spotify As of May 18, that has happened again, with the JRE Podcast falling to second place to the UK chart behind a brand-new podcast known as The Meer Show. What\u2019s weird about this podcast is that it\u2019s only 20 minutes in length and isn\u2019t backed by Spotify like some of the previous challengers to Rogan\u2019s throne. Instead, it\u2019s from Meer Jangi, Grace, and Bailey, three popular figures on TikTok \u2013 which has been the launching pad for their podcast. \u201cOver the past 4 weeks we have become trending, gaining up to 25k viewers on our lives at once,\u201d they told Dexerto. \u201cWe decided to make the podcast 5 days ago for our followers and then promoted the link from there which boosted our podcast listens and we were able to get really positive feedback from our fans!\u201d It is unusual to see such a random podcast jump right into the top spot, especially when they\u2019ve only got one episode. It hasn\u2019t had the same success on Apple Podcasts, though, only reaching 28 in the UK charts. Ultimately, it likely won\u2019t be long before Rogan takes the top spot back and it is more recognized podcasts that are right up there alongside him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
