One of the world's most popular podcasters has given Spotify a headache. Some critics and musicians claim that Joe Rogan is promoting COVID misinformation in his podcasts, which are exclusive to Spotify after a reported $100m deal in 2020. So how did Spotify - originally a music streaming service - become embroiled in a free speech debate? Also in the programme, BBC Three returns as a traditional TV channel, six years after the BBC decided it should be online only. Guests: Elizabeth Dwoskin, Silicon Valley Correspondent at the Washington Post; Jake Kanter Media Correspondent at The Times; Rosanna Pound-Woods, producer of The Catch Up on BBC Three; Batya Ungar-Sargon, Deputy Opinion Editor, Newsweek; Marianna Spring, BBC Disinformation Reporter Studio engineer: Tim Heffer Producer: Hannah Sander Presenter: Ros Atkins
