As evidenced by the latest 'UFC 293' and 'UFC 294' events, this agreement explicitly stipulates that he will not serve as a host for any UFC events conducted beyond the borders of the United States.
Only a few days after being overtaken by Alix Earle's 'Hot Mess' podcast, Rogan's program is once again listed as the top podcast in the US, indicating that his hard work is clearly paying off.
This is unsurprising, considering individuals like Rogan and his talent for humorously encapsulating even the most challenging topics.
When Alix Earle dethroned Joe Rogan for top spot
'The Joe Rogan Experience' had consistently been the top podcast, but as per a recent Dexerto report, it briefly slipped from its position at the pinnacle of Spotify's charts.
Alix Earle, a TikTok sensation who hosts the 'Hot Mess' podcast, managed to swiftly claim the top spot, even though her podcast wasn't exclusively available on Spotify.
Despite Joe Rogan's continuous production of new episodes, releasing four in as many days, he was displaced to the third position by Alix Earle's September 21 premiere episode, which outperformed his podcast.
However, with Joe Rogan now back at the top of the rankings, it seems that the temporary disruption was merely due to fans rapidly gravitating towards her show.
