Keep in mind that a partnership between Trump Media Technology Group (TMTG) and Rumble was announced last December {LINK}. Today Rumble steps into the social media and video hosting controversy with Joe Rogan and Spotify.
Spotify is the host for Joe Rogan’s podcast. Spotify is under pressure to cancel Joe Rogan. Today Rumble has offered Joe Rogan $100,000,000.00 over four years to switch platforms.
Last October Rumble bought out Dave Ruben’s Locals platform. In November Rumble announced they were moving to Florida {LINK}. A month later the Trump Media Group announced a partnership with Rumble.
Even with Joe Biden’s inflation, $100 million is a stunning amount of money and Rogan wouldn’t have to worry about being censored or cancelled. Smart move by Rumble in getting all of the PR just from the offer.
It’s the Art of the Deal
I miss the days when Trump stole all the oxygen.
They are coming back, from what I read & hear.
I think he just stole Spotify’s oxygen.
If Rumble hosted music, the master-troll move would be offering to host Neil Young’s music.
Only the early stuff, please. Anything after Rust Never Sleeps, meh. Love that music, hate his politics.
That’s the beauty of it: Rumble is a media platform. It focuses on video. But, with a few changes in coding- BOOM- Rumble’s version of Spotify is now up and running. It is really that simple (not to be taken out of context).
I also miss the great time we used to have on r/The_Donald. Looking back it was probably the single best news aggregator in all of 2016-2018.
It is not gone, they just left the toxic environment of Reddit. Come rejoin the chat.

Honk honk !
We’re still here. Patriots.win now
Love to see so many Pedes!
So I visited patriots.win to satisfy my curiosity.
Apparently the mayor of Ottowa got a judge to decreee that honking was illegal in Ottowa for the next 10 days. So, the intrepid Canadian truckers somehow managed to acquire the horn instruments that are used as noise makers at soccer games. No more honks from the trucks but the noise maker horns will do as a substitute. In addition, there are reports that Canadian govt reps are getting phone calls of protest where, once the phone is answered, the honking begins. HONK!!
Still laughing.
Pre-ordered the app several weeks ago. This is true capitalism! A little off subject but Go Fund Me is toast.
It’s not really off topic. Rumble is in that area too.
GFM is where all the scammers go…from Comey to McCabe to Blasey Ford to homeless rescuers.
That’s why I always say…“Go Fund Yourself”…to Lesko Brandon shills. Pronouns like wokespeak.
This is AWESOME! Way to go Rumble!!!!
.
I wonder if Rumble has made it easy to transfer from one platform to another? Many people hate YouTube and the “watch your mouth” culture but dont see a better alternative. Moving ten years worth of weekly (or more) content is no easy feat.
The great Howie Carr recently moved his whole show from Utube to Rumble because he got sick of their crap. Seems to have gone seemlessly. Note…he left Utube, was not kicked off.
A SMART person (and Rogan is smart) will have his own copies of the material he produced. If he doesn’t, then he’s not as smart as I thought.
All of the work is edited and cut and published. Why would a content creator throw away all of the work files used to create the published content?
I listened to a few people who made the move it seems to be relatively easy. What’s more for live streams and super chats Rumble takes a smaller cut.
Don’t let them fool you. Those channels are addicted to the money they make on YT. You can make money on Rumble, but it’s not as lucrative (yet).
Rumble is a 37 cent BitCoin now.
Well, looks like a check. Will mate be next? I don’t think Rogen is worth it, but the optics are great. I love a good fight.
Is it this what capitalism is all about.
Free Market is.
Joe Rogan doesn’t need Spotify or rumble. He can go solo and keep all the money for himself. That’s what is so maddening about him apologizing. It’s a bad move because it never works. And he never had to do it, he could always have told them to screw.
I have never listened or watched Joe Rogan. However, he must have something going for him or he wouldn’t have created this much interest.
And he lost me!
Unity. wait until he outs himself as your enemy
he apologized for ‘if you felt it hurt your feelings’.
he didnt say I’m sorry for saying the N word. he said I talked about the N word being one of the most unique words in the world – where one group can say it in terms of endearments, or affirmation, or punchlines, or rap songs, and everyone else cant say it – that there is no other word on earth that has this unique categorization.
the fate of Rogan isnt decided.
this proves he was right.
People use as few platforms as possible. The last thing people want is a whole new app on their devices to get to content. If you only need one or two, it’s best! Consumers do not tolerate inconvenience.
If Rogan came to Rumble, his followers will follow. And all other content the followers want will likely follow too.
hes def worth it… his appeal is extremely broad.. hes this generations Howard Stern
of couse – he single handedly did more damage to the COVID hoax than anyone else. because he talks to LEFTIST also
Watch Spotify say Rogan cant take his old content bcuz they “own” it or some other buffoonery. Leftists want to destroy everything creative, especially if they can’t have it, even if they don’t want or value it.
Now is the time Rogan can put the leftist energy to work for him!
His next show should be jam packed to get the 100 million offer reaction.
Maybe, but then Joe can just host people on Rumble and it won’t matter. Spotify is likely to find itself in the same position as GoFundMe at this point.
This is happening on the streets and roads of Canada. It is happening on the internet platforms. It is happening to CNN and CBC, Now it needs to happen in the halls of finance. How do we claim back our currency ?
Some Treeper commented days ago that s/he has gone to a personal “Cash Friday” to wean off credit card use.
My grandparents lived through hyperinflation jn Germany when the currency became worthless (and charities suffered. The German Jewish charity that had helped to found the Technion University in Haifa, dried up)
How? It starts with President Trump opening a bank for his 100 million followers. Seriously, would you open an account at Trump Bank? I would in a heart beat. Imagine the rage at Wells Fargo, BOA and Chase as millions of President Trump supporters close their accounts at these Leftist institutions.
As long as the Fed doesn’t interfere (Bank Charter approval, FDIC, access to SWIFT).
But you’re right: along with a bank, POTUS needs his own credit card processor, satellites, his own ISP infrastructure, Media empire (on the way), data center (Rumble).
If Spotify does “own” Rogan’s prior content, then shame on Rogan’s attorneys.
All he has to do is start posting controversial covid stuff with an alternative viewpoint and they will kick him off.
I wonder how many of his 11M listeners are MAGA folks?
If he balks at helping to save the world what % of his viewers leave?
You can take the temperature of his support among Magas by reading comments here, whenever Sundance posts about him. I think many Maga folks are too focussed on our struggle to have time for what Rogan does. But what is great about him is that his three hour, rambling interviews gently peel away the guests’ facades and you can see who they are.
I just unfollowed him and deleted the Spotify app. It matters when millions do it.
Me too. I will follow him if he goes to Rumble.
But right now he’s chosen censorship and the left’s bull.
JR is purely on the left. This is all about the left eating its own.
Popcorn! as I say goodbye to Spotify.
Yep
Great and wonderful. I don’t have time or interest in “podcasts” or rambling, bloviating livestreams. I listen to streamed chill and house music to stay focused at work in a very noisy open-concept cube environment. I left Amazon a long time ago for Spotify. Now this. Sorry, but there are no more music services to which I can run away. I will stay here. Rogan is a big boy with bank. Let him figure it out.
Good move. I will do that too.
I know two MAGA 30-somethings that listen to Rogan on the regular. I’ve only listened to a few parts of a few of his podcasts, typically when portions are featured in newsworthy snippets.
I never listened to him but was thinking about it…until he kowtowed. Now he’s dead to me unless he does something to truly fight back.
Rogan’s crime was to interview Drs Malone and Zelenko. For hours. Letting them talk. Both of them speak to the facts and possess impressive credentials. They discussed the facts relating to COVID early treatments and the adverse events that have been reported from the vaccines that the propaganda media and the govt agencies won’t allow to be discussed. Both doctors had been censored on Twitter just prior to their interviews. That is what triggered the fury from the left against Rogan.
It’s not the MAGA folks that the left is concerned about that listen to Rogan. It’s the others that weren’t aware of the COVID treatment options and/or the vax adverse events.
Globalists, tyrants and Dimocrat politicians crave to leverage their MONOPOLIES to extract more money from we Deplorables, crush our complaints and forcefully shape our mindset. To really resist, we must break their monopoly, do not buy from it, do not read, listen or watch it and rely on our local community for everything possible. ANY LOSS TO THE MONOPOLY IS A WIN FOR US!
I wonder if Rumble has thought about offering Dr. Malone & Dr. McCullough a daily or bi-weekly show?
Now that would be fun to watch.
Medical Truth!
I like Dr.Malone but I feel he is being dodgy. I think he knows waaaaayy too much, and I think he knows what happens to the “squeaky wheel”. He won’t say the words “graphene hydroxide” or “graphene oxide” instead he says “lipid nanoparticles”.. I wish someone would have asked him about the reports of mircoscopic microchips floating in the Pfizer shots during Sen. Ron Johnson’s “A Second Opinion”..
Yep, Malone is the shiny new object to stir the pot as long as he only stirs it when allowed by his puppet masters. Housatonic live has done a deep dive on Malone. Malone sure looks like a plant to me.
Youtube doesn’t offer people ‘shows.’ Rumble, in a sense, offers EVERYONE the same “show” that Youtube. Given all of the interviews and other discussion with them, and especially all that lives on Rumble already? Safe to say they know about it. Safe to say that Rogan already knows about it.
Rogan would be a fool to not take Rumble’s offer. From the moment Rogan took a knee that ended any chance our house will ever watch another Spotify video.
Here is TechnoFog’s latest substack “The Revolution has come for Joe Rogan” (TechnoFog’s description of Brian Stelter is a fantastic read all by itself):
https://technofog.substack.com/p/the-revolution-has-come-for-joe-rogan
Yes, his description is great! The sledgehammer of truth!😄
Good article. Thanks for sharing.
Nail.Meat.Head.
How do I describe Stelter? (For starters, I do so with pleasure.) He is a humorless fat man. A dedicated media believer pretending to be a media reporter. He is as dumb as he sounds and as arrogant as he looks. He oozes the sadism of a hall monitor and the false confidence of an impostor. He is Kim Jong-un without the hair or the country or the charisma.
Pathetic eunuch comes to mind.
Nailed Meat Head indeed.
I like Rumble’s commitment to free speech. They’re working as we speak to come up with crystal clear terms of service that enshrine that. I just hope they improve their clunky user interface. Currently, it’s hard to discover new content creators on their platform or even to get updates from content creators you’re already subscribed to. For my part, I would be OK with Rumble collecting data on my account and using it to suggest new creators to me, provided that allowing them to collect data on my account is an opt-in policy and they credibly pledge not to sell my data to third parties.
doubtful, hes afraid he will lose BLM support.
This should tell the USA who’s side “Joe Rogan is really on.
Capitalism is/does mean freedom.
We need more of this kind of competition.
BTW, why isn’t there a FOX 2.0? Available nationwide?
Business model works…..and is duplicateable…something to ponder.
It is called Gab.
As much as I admire Andrew Torba and his mission, Gab is not stealing YT’s thunder. It’s too indie looking and an echo chamber of Andrew fans or hateful trolls. The ads annoy me even more. I hope he can eventually afford top shelf graphics people and makes it a true competitor.
Joe may or may not be over-rated. I don’t listen to him.
BUT- he CAVED to spots in a big way: by groveling and apologizing.
If he was all he purported to be, he would have known that appeasing tyrants is an endless, insatiable loop.
And, he caved over mere money.
He is coming in from left field. It’s a long way.
The letter from Mr. Pavlovski to Mr. Rogan is a work of art in and of itself 🙂
Cyber attacks will follow if Rumble effectively circumvents the left’s control over speech.
names of cyber hackers will be published if this bullshit continues.
Hey Rumble,
How about the following add ons?
1) Joe Rogan – offer made
2) Dr. Malone & Dr McCullough – Medical Truth Weekly or Bi-Weekly Program
3) Add a Go Fund Me solution within Rumble – Patriots Fund
4) Add a Honest Telemedicine solution like or invite FLCCC via Rumble that will not only be a go to place for Patriots seeking honest medical advise since so many doctors and hospitals have turned against the unjabbed but it also is a universal Patriot home where honest doctors are free to prescribe Ivermectin & Hydroxychloroquine if necessary.
5) Last idea, is add something maybe called Private Patriot On-line Schooling where Patriot Parents can home school online knowing the curriculum is soundly focused on reading, writing, math and science and where students recite the Pledge of Allegiance and the Constitution is taught and tested and grades matter.
Much of this can be funded by the Patriots or even Rumble membership
100,000,000 Patriots x $100 year = $10,000,000,000
Will that buy us anything??
Remember our strengths……….
Mass and Funding Capability
6.) No cellphone/gubt transponder required. Non-negotiable.
Bogey with a homerun!!!
Still sitting on a few hundred shares of DWAC that I got for 13 bucks………hope truth social takes off.
“Truth Social” is going to be the biggest thing ever hit the internet. Why would people walk a mile to hear a lie when they could had stood still and heard the truth?
Just because I support your right to say something doesn’t imply I support or agree with what you are saying.
Unfortunately Rogan may be too cowardly and hates “the right” too much to accept the offer.
keep in mind where he lives now – there a chance.
He certainly hates President Trump enough to turn it down. His loss, if so. But still, this was a brilliant gesture by Rumble.
Agree, but the day might come when he realizes he missed his big chance by leaving on a high note of his own choosing.
I think the left is creating such a restrictive, toxic, unhappy environment really similar to religious extremists.
Freedom can be very appealing. We need to stick with the freedom message.
Leftist ideologues are in total meltdown. LOVE IT!
There is a story on ZeroHedge about an investment in Spotify by a New York state union perhaps being triggered by the Spotify CEO letter.
This is going to be a very interesting story to follow.
Joe Rogan cucked to the media. He apologized. He also said the n-word many times. Trump is associated with Rumble. Trump would not be associated with anybody who said the n-word. If asked about Rogan, he would disavow. Rumble is not making a real offer.
But isn’t it nice how we’re all held hostage by a very small group of people? Half their power is in controlling our minds, the other half is in controlling our wallets. Can we free our minds from their influence? It’s easy if you try.
You bring up a good point about N- word, Rogan and Trump/ Rumble.
If President Trump’s media business is associated with free speech that too would be a consideration not only via Rogan’s words.
You can free your mind if you stop caring a darn about the “n” word. Yeah, it’s not “nice” to say “n” to anyone. Christian people don’t do that. It’s also not nice to call me a White supremacist, a N@ZI, a racist or worse because my ancestors fought to keep Alabama free from federal troops. I get called that routinely in social media, on videos, and in the press. Even PDJT has nothing good to say about my people. I notice he couldn’t wait to run to the South when it got hot in the New York kitchen, though.
clueless.
he didnt call a single person the N word.
he discussed the uniquenes of the word – he made the word a TOPIC OF DISCUSSION
that one group of people can use it as a term of endearment, love, punchlines to jokes, etc… and everyone else cant.
Errrrrrrrr… LET’s get ready to RUMBLLLLLLLE!!!
Could be wrong, but Joe will not take the offer.
From what I see, he is not about money, or objectcive truth or free speech or any of those high minded things.
What Joe is about is status…
He needs to be in the “cool” crowd…
But no doubt I am looking forward to see now this plays out…
You may be right – I dont know anything about Rogan
But a point about the “cool crowd” – Cool does not follow the crowd.
If he wants to be cool he will reset the trend away from cultural marxism to freedom and move to Rumble and talk about whatever the hell he wants.
he left California to move to Texas
why did he do that?
Money.
His pay day from Spotify would have been taxed in CA.
LOLOLOLOL.
GAME ON.
TEAM TRUMP – FOREVER.
I heard recently that Joe Rogan folded like a cheap suit over his corona “self imposed treatment” options. He now is denouncing them, I guess, or something like that. Who knows what to believe these days? The whole point of the dimwit democraps is to confuse people to the point where they have no idea what they’re AGREEING to.
That’s how I see it. I don’t much care what Joe Rogan does. Lots of people can talk on the radio, and do it better than he does. Why make such an offer to him anyway?? It’s baffling.
I think you heard that right here on CTH just a few days ago.
Rogan has somehow become and idol and a fetish.
Rumble smart move,
Who cares what JR does particularly now
I don’t care for him anyway.
Ooooooh snap! 😁👍🏻 Joe is “ready to RUUUMBLLLLLE!!” SpotiFAIL. 🤣
Rumble must have money to burn.
Why not give that $100 million to the Truckers? Or at least the $25 million per year part?
They are helping those truckers tremendously by giving them a voice every single day. Why would you bash them for wanting to make deals and grow so they can make even more of a difference?
That wasn’t a bash. If I want to bash that’s nothing. It was barely a tap on the shoulder.
And why would I even want to take time listening to this Rogan (sports guy?) ? Isn’t a person’s time better spent listening (or reading), oh say … Sundance for example?
Whether you meant it to be a bash or not, you insinuated that Rumble is not doing anything but worshipping money. That is most definitely not the case.
And as far as listening to Rogan, it’s beside the point whether you want to listen to him or not. The point is that he can reach an exponentially bigger audience than the Treehouse, which means he can reach the people who actually need to be reached. Nobody here needs their mind changed about modern politics or freedom of speech, except for the hateful lurking lefties who are here to learn new ways to attack us. Open up your mind a little bit and realize that people are different and choose to use different platforms than you.
This is a different battle then the truckers. This is major because it strikes at the heart of the matter, millions of middle of the road people that vote left because the tv/internet tells them too. This is like a Trump billboard in the heart of the enemy.
Also, Trump already reached out to the truckers to give them a voice on his platform. I’m sure he will give them a way to monetize it.
Smart move by Rumble. That has been my go to place lately. I still use youtube for how to videos, free music, and free old movies to fall asleep to at night because I can still do all of that without having to log on to my account, which has been banned, but I’m liking Rumble more and more for the political stuff.
I have never listened to Rogan. Had never heard of him until a few months ago. For me, I am just happy that Malone and McCullough’s interviews were heard by the massive audience that Rogan has. Getting the truth about the evil shots (and etc.) out to 11 million people is PRICELESS and may save lives.
I would make that offer conditional that he stop apologizing to everyone that deserves no apology
Rumble could probably get Sundance for $10 million.
Why pay Rogan 10 times as much when he is not even worth 1/10 as much?
to cripple the current TIDE
this is a moment in time , where we have pulled so far from the lockdown – to the FORGET WHAT THEY DID TO US PHASE
joe pivoting to us would MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO FORGET WHAT THEY DID TO Us
he would be a living reminder. symbol waking the LEFT – HIVE MINDED NPCs getting armed to fight us on the battle field. he would disarm a percentage of them, keeping us from having to confront our fellow americans, leaving only the die hard traitors for us to face.
Joe Rogan has 11 million listeners / watchers *per episode*. Not 11 million audience members. 11 million audience members PER EPISODE. All he has to do is go private server subscription model and if 1 million of them give him $10 bucks a month- he’s at $120 million PER YEAR. And he’s got to know he can do that. Then, he stays on Spotify- yuge audience reach- and he can simply say something to the effect of “Subscribers Get Forbidden Fruit”…
“Rogaine” should offer an endorsement deal to Rogan. It would work on multiple levels.
lol, good thinking!
Rumble’s stock is up 30% on this, around $150m.
Any word as to whether or not Rogan is considering this offer?
That’s a lot of money for a mediocre talent. (and apologist)
The Art of the Deal, indeed, Tinker Tom.
How sturdy is Rumble’s back end? If Rogan were to jump would Rumble survive the deplatforming that would come for them?
military cyber retirees
Money doesnt matter to leftist – they have mastered geting lump sums of our money from the Federal Tax dollars.
what matters is appearances – people out of line. examples, etc..
Joe leaving would be a deathblow.
Let’s get ready to RUMBLE!!!
Sorry had too lol. Hopefully, I don’t get a call from Michael Buffer.
I thought you guys hated Joe Rogan the other day.
People can be very fickle.
Also read where Kash Patel had started online payment system, called “Paytriot”. Sorry don’t have link . Pray and pray more
Who are you referring to when you say “you guys”?
I had never heard of him, I don’t think, until last week’s dustup. I have never heard the sound of his voice.
I do my own thinking and deciding and am not in to groupthink–no matter who is in the group.
he has a chance to be usefull again.
a tool. just like PDJT.
PDJT hated obama mocking him at the press club dinner – so he teamed up with us to hammer him
mutual agreement.
now its personal for PDJT to survive and eliminate people that do him and us and America harm – so his orginal alliance is irrelevant as now we have a true bond for SURVIVABLE
Rogan has this same path proposed for him now.
For a standup comedian from Boston who appeared on NBC TV shows for 10 years the guy has been no friend of conservatives. Don’t really care what he does now; even if he appears to be a bit unwoke.
As usual ,while the right hand waves around… watch the left hand!
Just checked my DWAC stock and it’s up 13%. On this? I guess I’ll take it.
Plus he wouldn’t have to apologize to his buddy / Trump fan Dana White for taking a knee on Insta.
via his Covid position evolving. Joe is proven to have the ability to navigate a change in position.
once his empathy aligns with us (via him feeling pain in LOS ANGELES with covid laws) he will do ‘kneel like gestures’ for us
Who cares. Another meaningless article. Who cares about Joe Rogan really?
And another meaningless comment.
who cares? –> the hive minds we dont want to have to fight in a war.
he can reach them and break them from the mass psychosis.
Do you really not understand that he can reach 11 million people per episode? Isn’t the goal to wake people up to the government tyranny? Sundance is great but he will never reach that many people. Yeah, he should wake up and realize that the soulless cancel culture don’t really give a rat’s ass about his apologies, but that’s his problem. We’re supposed to be here for change, are we not?
Exactly, again people so focused on the forest forget that at times you need to attend to individual trees.
Run Joe Run.
Spotify is Swedish owned and based. Swedes are non confrontational, make decisions as a group. They try to be neutral but in the end always choose the wrong side thinking they are saving the world and think of themselves as nice people.
For example, the Gov. let in thousands of refugees who have no intent to work and just leach the system…sound failure.
In just 4 years there’s been:
1 330 shootings.
737 bombings.
33 269 reported rapes.
There’s massive problems with gang crime.
If Joe was smart, he would get out of his contract with Spotify and go to Rumble as quick as he can.
As my grandmother said – a Swede is a Norwegian with his head cut off.
I never knew its source but our family (100% Dane) would say, “A thousand Svedes came through the veeds, chased by one Norwegian”.
