'Science Vs' podcast host calls Spotify's support of Joe Rogan 'a slap in the face'

Since 2015, Gimlet Media’s Science Vs podcast has published quick episodes about topics like killer asteroids, blue balls, and vaccine research. It prides itself in thorough research (creator and producer Wendy Zuckerman said in an interview with Discover Pods that she “spoke to more than 100 cardiologists” for an episode about alcohol, for example). But as of Monday, the podcast has paused its usual production.

Science Vs joined Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, podcaster Brené Brown, and others in protesting Spotify over Joe Rogan’s continued presence on the platform.
