Summary
Joe Rogan’s podcast has lost its long-held No. 1 ranking to the anti-Trump MeidasTouch Podcast, according to Podscribe data.
MeidasTouch, founded by the Meiselas brothers, saw a 101% increase in downloads, reaching 56 million, while The Joe Rogan Experience dropped 32% to 48.6 million.
The shift marks a rare moment where a left-leaning podcast overtakes typically dominant conservative voices.
It remains uncertain whether MeidasTouch will maintain its top position or if other anti-Trump podcasts will gain traction.
This is like the gen alpha version of “MSNBC beats out Fox as most viewed cable news network” headlines from 2017
Yes, but that also like never happened. Fox was always dominant.
It definitely did?
Edit: apparently only for brief periods. If you consider his first term overall, Fox did dominate
I would fucking love that if it were true but it most certainly is not

I think it was just for like a week or two so it wouldn’t necessarily show up in the yearly averages in those charts.

I thought that was the point of the original comment, even.
Thanks for the link. It does seem that there is a correlation between News media that leans toward the minority party getting a bump in eyeballs.

Is your point that no one listens to podcasts? Because they do.
Non-children listen to these podcasts?
