In a late-night memo to employees, Spotify's CEO apologized for the company's ongoing controversy with podcast host Joe Rogan but said the company remained committed to hosting the show.
However, Ek went on to say that Spotify would continue to carry Rogan's podcast, despite calls for Spotify to de-platform the host. About 70 past episodes of"The Joe Rogan Experience" were deleted from Spotify last week, episodes in which Rogan used racial slurs or made racist statements. In his note to employees, Ek said it was Rogan's decision to delete the episodes, not Spotify's.
