The Daily Mess: Don't Silence Joe
Listen to "The Daily Mess Don't Silence Joe" on Spreaker.
I don't fear being a creative. What I wonder about is how far as a creative will we be allowed to travel. The most recent attack on podcaster Joe Rogan is a great example. Why him and not all of these political opinion makers sharing the same poison with listeners? Neil Young and Joni Mitchell took their music off the same platform because they didn't agree with Joe's spoken word. I've yet to hear of anyone leaping off streaming due to Mark Levine or Chris Cuomo! Being a creative means extending your voice. To make yourself present requires not an act of God but a willingness to be judged. When Joe Rogan's message didn't agree with my walk and way, I quit listening. I didn't think once about leaving Spotify. It's a freedom of speech that Mr. Rogan is exercising. Spotify just happens to be his soapbox.
