Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson has nabbed the top spot on Spotify’s list of most-listened to podcasts in the United States, bumping “The Joe Rogan Experience” down to number two. “The Tucker Carlson Show,” which the namesake host also posts to his website and his account on X, was borne out of his firing from Fox last April. Rogan, meanwhile, recently resigned with Spotify for $250 million over several years, The Wall Street Journalreported in February, with episodes airing on YouTube as well. The comedian and UFC announcer’s podcast had 14.5 million followers, as of March. Just before his run on Fox ended, Carlson’s show was the right-wing network’s most-watched, with about 3.3 million average nightly viewers. Carlson was a guest on Rogan’s podcast earlier this year, in which he gushed over conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.
