Joe Rogan Dethroned by Anti-Trump Podcast in the Charts [View all]

Joe Rogan has lost his Number One slot to a show critical of President Donald Trump, the MeidasTouch Podcast, according to Podscribe data.

Newsweek has reached out to a representative for Rogan and the MeidasTouch Podcast outside regular working hours via email for comment.

Why It Matters

The podcast charts have largely been dominated by shows with a conservative or pro-Trump voice, and the likes of Joe Rogan, Shawn Ryan and Ben Shapiro have frequently appeared in the top 10. Trump himself appeared on a number of these podcasts, eschewing traditional media outlets, as part of his successful bid for reelection in 2024.

Less than a month into the new administration, the rise of the left-leaning MeidasTouch to become the country's most popular podcast indicates a potential shift in tone currently resonating with Americans.
