Neil Young couldn’t do it. Joni Mitchell couldn’t do it. Who will be the Chosen One to successfully get Joe Rogan kicked off of Spotify?
Mary Trump hopes it will be her. That’s right, Donald Trump’s angry niece has had enough of Spotify standing by Rogan. And she’s decided to take her podcast elsewhere, thank you very much:
I'm removing my podcast from @Spotify. I know it's not a big deal but hope it will be part of a growing avalanche. Thank you to #NeilYoung, @jonimitchell, and @nilslofgren for your courage in leading the way.

Mary wants a piece of that courage, too. And with her stunning bravery, she’ll get it yet!
Thank you. There must be consequences for the deliberate dissemination of misinformation.

Quick question, though: is Mary Trump leaving Spotify really a consequence?
She had a podcast? https://t.co/4ljuCJZiIY

Exactly. Exactly.
The walls are closing in on Spotify, lol. https://t.co/vbwVOf7EuU

Mary wishes.
"I know it's not a big deal but…". Yeah, you're right, it's not a big deal. Bye. https://t.co/Hgp6DL0suq

And taking all 3 of her listeners with her? 🤣 https://t.co/YIWH5Y5D5m

I’ve never listened to Mary Trump’s podcast. Is it just two hours of her saying that Donald Trump is her uncle? https://t.co/2S0U9Mlv70

A shocking loss to those who enjoy hours of complaining about one’s uncle, I’m sure. https://t.co/KPKdHPpnLG

I'm sorry, Mary…this is a Wendy's. https://t.co/b9pXAo2gYk

Maybe Wendy’s will listen to her.
This is a net positive. https://t.co/hApVipk6LD

We certainly aren’t going to complain.
Anyway, something for other podcasters to think about:
If you are a podcaster, and saw the @joerogan kerfluffle with @spotify, just take a second and think about the logic.
Spotify has decided to stand behind their podcaster…and not allow their speech to be infringed.
So where would you want YOUR podcast to be?
