Joe Rogan's podcast has been surpassed as Spotify's top podcast in the US by an unexpected creator.
The 'Joe Rogan Experience' has been a hugely popular podcast and has been a No.1 hit on Spotify.
He's attracted an enormous fanbase through his intense discussions on controversial topics and conspiracy theories and can attract some of the biggest names in the world, including Donald Trump, Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk.
His podcast has gone from strength to strength since he debuted JRE on Ustream in 2009.

Rogan's audience grew exponentially after Spotify purchased the rights to air his podcast in May 2020.
The UFC commentator has kept his content fresh and captivating, fending off competition in the podcast space from Theo Von's 'This Past Weekend' and Alex Cooper's 'Call Her Daddy'.
His topics have captured the attention of fans across the world, making JRE stay at the top of Spotify's rankings for the most-listened-to podcast.
But he has been dethroned as the No.1 podcast on Spotify.

Rogan previously saw a drop in his JRE stats in December 2024 when Kyle Kelce's 'Not Gonna Lie' podcast hit Spotify.
In the same month, 'The Telepathy Tapes' podcast also topped JRE as the most popular show.
