Attempts to make Rogan disappear from public view or at least shame people into not listening to his podcasts are nothing new. They have not been successful before and don’t appear to be working now.

Why is he ‘being cancelled’ this time? There were several things that my have prompted the outrage. In a Thursday podcast, Rogan, who usually steers clear of politics, reiterated his negative attitude to how the Democratic Party primary went in the US.

That doesn’t make any sense.”
