Joe Rogan's podcast is among the most listened to in the world but for Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) users, the podcaster ranked third in 2024, despite having one of the most listened to episodes with his Donald Trump interview <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41561452/trump-to-joe-rogan-biggest-mistake-was-trusting-bad-and-disloyal-people">before the 2024 election.</a>
What Happened: Rogan <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/02/36914209/spotify-inks-multiyear-deal-with-podcast-king-joe-rogan-amid-shifting-strategy">renewed a multi-year deal</a> with Spotify Technology (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPOT#NYSE">SPOT</a>) earlier this year, which comes after four years of exclusivity with the music company and huge listener figures put up year after year.
Unlike past agreements with Spotify, Rogan's podcast "The Joe Rogan Experience" is no longer exclusive to Spotify and Rogan is free to share episodes on other platforms like Apple, Amazon and YouTube, the video platform owned by Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>).
Some listeners love the video aspect that shows Rogan and the interviewee, so videos and clips on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@joerogan">YouTube </a>have often generated millions of views.
Rogan's interview with Trump before the 2024 election has 51 million views on YouTube, compared to Rogan's 18.6 million YouTube subscriber figure. Interviews with J.D. Vance and Elon Musk before the 2024 election each have 18 million viewers.
While Rogan will likely rank as the top listened-to podcast on Spotify, the same can't be said for Apple podcasts. Apple recently <a href="https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2024/11/apple-shares-the-most-popular-podcasts-of-2024/">shared </a>its list of top podcast rankings for 2024.
Here are the top shows on Apple podcasts:
<ol>
<li>The Daily</li>
<li>Crime Junkie</li>
<li>The Joe Rogan Experience</li>
<li>Dateline NBC</li>
<li>SmartLess</li>
<li>Huberman Lab</li>
<li>This American Life</li>
<li>New Heights with Jason &amp; Travis Kelce</li>
<li>Up First From NPR</li>
<li>Morbid</li>
</ol>
While many consider Rogan the new media, he failed to beat out the podcast from legacy media company The New York Times Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NYT#NYSE">NYT</a>), which is <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/column/the-daily" target="_blank" rel="noopener">behind </a>"The Daily." The show, hosted by Michael Barbaro and Sabrina Tavernise, lasts around 20 minutes a day, five days a week.
"Crime Junkie," a weekly true crime podcast, also surpassed Rogan on Apple's year-end rankings.
"The Tucker Carlson Show" ranked first as the top new show on Apple podcasts.
Rogan's interview with Trump, titled #2219, ranked as the second top episode for Apple, trailing the Crime Junkie episode "SERIAL KILLER: The Alphabet Murders Part 1." The episode was also the fifth most shared Apple podcast for the year.
Tucker Carlson held the title for the most shared podcast episode with &#8220;Calley &amp; Casey Means: The Truth About Ozempic, the Pill, and How Big Pharma Keeps You Sick.&#8221;
A "Call Her Daddy" podcast episode with presidential candidate Kamala Harris was the year&#8217;s ninth most shared Apple podcast episode.

</ul>
Why It's Important: The podcast rankings are only for Apple, and Rogan will likely top the Spotify annual list when it is released before the end of the year. No longer being exclusive could allow Rogan&#8217;s content to be accessed from multiple platforms, potentially broadening his audience while distributing viewership and listenership across various channels.
Despite being the most followed show on Apple Podcasts, &#8220;The Joe Rogan Experience&#8221; did not secure the top spot in the platform&#8217;s year-end rankings. This outcome is unexpected, especially considering the podcast&#8217;s high-profile guests, including former President Donald Trump.
While &#8216;The Daily&#8217; releases five episodes a week, Rogan typically puts out four. However, Rogan's interviews are significantly longer, often lasting several hours, compared to the shorter format of &#8216;The Daily.&#8217;
Rogan&#8217;s ranking among the top-listened-to podcasts on multiple platforms and generating millions of views on YouTube show that his popularity is not slowing down.

Joe Rogan's Trump Podcast Episode Couldn't Land Him Top Spot On Apple

Editor&#8217;s Note: This story has been updated with a confirmation from ValueAct Holdings.
ValueAct Holdings, L.P. reported holdings worth $3.9 billion in the September quarter after it disclosed major changes in its 13F filing for the third quarter of current fiscal. 
What Happened: One of the major changes in its holdings during Q3 was the addition of 211,500 shares of Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) for $121.07 million, representing 3.08% of its total portfolio.
ValueAct Holdings is a hedge fund popularly known for its activist strategies, run by chief executive officer, Mason Morfit. An activist hedge fund usually follows an event-driven strategy and acquires sufficient equity to influence a company's policies, to increase company value. ValueAct has a long history of investing in technology companies and is generally considered to be more constructivist and collaborative than other activist funds.
A ValueAct spokesperson confirmed to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga</a> that the firm has built a $1 billion stake in Meta.
In 2022, Brad Gerstner&#8216;s Altimeter Capital targeted Meta, urging the company to reduce its workforce. Gerstner articulated his concerns in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/22/10/29380959/meta-investor-proposes-curb-on-employees-strength-metaverse-spending">a letter titled &#8220;Time to Get Fit.</a>
ValueAct fund's specific intentions remain unclear, but CEO Morfit is reportedly supportive of Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg&#8217;s strategic focus on advancing artificial intelligence initiatives, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/11/12/activist-valueact-has-1-billion-stake-in-meta-sources-say.html">according</a> to CNBC.
Why It Matters: According to its Q3 <a href="https://13f.info/13f/000141881224000021/compare/000141881224000017">13F filing</a>, ValueAct has acquired a passive stake in the parent company of Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, namely, Meta. It is one of the largest companies to be targeted by an activist investor, with a market cap of nearly $1.5 trillion. The hedge fund also increased its investment in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/01/36471982/disney-partners-with-valueact-capital-for-strategic-counsel-in-anticipation-of-2024-shareholder-meet">The Walt Disney Co</a> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) by adding 1.33 million shares taking its total value to $718.04 million in ValueAct&#8217;s portfolio.

Other Key Changes To The Portfolio
Apart from adding Meta, ValueAct has made some major changes to its portfolio which consists of ten holdings. The fund has increased its stake in the American video game developer Roblox Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RBLX#NYSE">RBLX</a>) by adding 7.83 million shares in Q3. It now represents 8.81% of ValueAct&#8217;s portfolio, having a total value of $448.62 million.
Live Nation Entertainment Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LYV#NYSE">LYV</a>), Visa Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/V#NYSE">V</a>) and Liberty Media Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLYVK#NASDAQ">LLYVK</a>) are other new holdings that ValueAct has added to its portfolio.
The hedge fund also reduced 806.96 thousand shares in Expedia Group Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EXPE#NASDAQ">EXPE</a>) and completely exited Spotify Technology SA (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPOT#NYSE">SPOT</a>), Finserv Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FI#NYSE">FI</a>), KKR &amp; Co Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KKR#NYSE">KKR</a>), New York Times Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NYT#NYSE">NYT</a>) and Flutter Entertainment PLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FLUT#NYSE">FLUT</a>).

New York Times (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NYT#NYSE">NYT</a>) shares are moving lower on Monday. The company reported third-quarter financial results before the open.

Q3 Earnings Details: The company reported adjusted earnings of 45 cents per share, beating analyst estimates of 41 cents per share. The company reported sales of $640.2 million, marking a 7% year-over-year increase, but missing analyst estimates of $640.8 million, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
New York Times reported total advertising revenue of $118.4 million, total subscription revenue of $453.3 million and other revenues of $68.5 million.

"The third quarter was another strong one for The Times as we made further progress toward becoming the essential subscription for every curious person seeking to understand and engage with the world.
