Joe Rogan dethroned by anti-Trump podcast in the charts
Rogan slips into second spot, as the MeidasTouch Podcast becomes the country's most downloaded and listened to show this month.
Summary
Joe Rogan’s podcast has lost its long-held No. 1 ranking to the anti-Trump MeidasTouch Podcast, according to Podscribe data.
MeidasTouch, founded by the Meiselas brothers, saw a 101% increase in downloads, reaching 56 million, while The Joe Rogan Experience dropped 32% to 48.6 million.
The shift marks a rare moment where a left-leaning podcast overtakes typically dominant conservative voices.
It remains uncertain whether MeidasTouch will maintain its top position or if other anti-Trump podcasts will gain traction.

I'm just depressed that Rogan's podcast was nr 1.
It’s been number one for over a decade. Think about what that means for our society.
Yeah, I legitimately don't understand it. I used to like his show back around 2016-2017sh time frame. Back then, he usually just had well known comedians on and shot the shit and it was funny. Hell, he'd even have cool scientists on discussing new research they were doing that he found interesting. He'd have the occasional fringe topic, e.g. UFOs, conspiracies, etc., but it was always done in an entertaining way and wasn't overly political.
I don't know what the hell happened, but around 2019/2020 he just went way to the far right and became a giant piece of shit. I haven't listened to his garbage show in years.
Money is what happened.
Same, freaking crazy. 2016-2017 it was awesome, he was actually progressive too, podcast was dope af, had all kinds of cool people on and conversations. Now it's just pathetic
Im not american, so i don't know the american lore. Was he "bought" or something? I also heard a few of his podcasts back in the day and it was pretty good.
He's the peak example of Bernie bro to MAGA in my opinion. Wants change but isn't really smart enough to make their own mind up about what changes is good. Easily convinced to go farther down the rabit hole by good sounding ideas they don't see the problem with. Then boom all of a sudden you're going directly against the tings you used to stand for.
