'I know that to most people, there's no context where a White person is ever allowed to say that, never mind publicly on a podcast, and I agree with that,' he said.

Rogan apologised over the incident on his Instagram where he said it was the 'most regretful and shameful thing' he has ever had to address publicly. Rogan asserted that it was 'very strange' to call someone Black unless they're from the 'darkest place' in Africa where 'they're not wearing any clothes all day'. One of the shows where Rogan used racial slurs was when he hosted controversial academic Dr Jordan Peterson on his podcast, where they joked about the words used to describe skin tone. While most have pulled their music from the streaming service for Rogan spreading COVID-19 misinformation, Arie cited his 'problematic' use of 'language around race' among other issues with Spotify.Īrie shared a compilation of the podcaster using the n-word more than 20 times from different episodes, which Rogan claimed was over a 12-year span.
