The podcasting world shook on May 20th when Joe Rogan announced that the Joe Rogan Experience would be exclusively on Spotify. This is a massive move for not only Joe but also for the chess board that is podcasting. 

Additionally, Joe Rogan has been an open critic of Youtube and their censorship issues in the long term. The power play of the decade was made by Rogan to remove his show from the platform that arguably brought the podcast to the mainstream. 

Youtube will undoubtedly see more creators especially within the podcasting niche flee the platform for more sustainable options. 

Subsequently, this episode of Oddly Observant breaks down the chess board that is the podcast industry after the conclusion of the historic podcast IP deal.

The start of the NBA Season is here! Stasi Harris joins the podcast to offer his preseason playoff predictions from both the Western & Eastern Conference. There has never been as much excitement for an NBA season as there has been this year, primarily due to all the Free agency movements in the league. These moves have created Dynamic Duos across the league, making almost every single game during the season entertaining to watch. Lebron James as usual as the most pressure of any player in the league on him, he needs to bring the LA Lakers back to the Playoffs in hopes of making a title run. Although the recent controversy of the NBA and China casted a dark cloud over the preseason, people are moving on and seem ready for their favorite teams to make a run at the NBA title. We will record another podcast at the All-star break to see how are predictions given in this episode are panning out at the half way point of the season.

The Dallas Cowboys have had a rough past 3 weeks losing to NOLA, Green Bay, and the putrid New York Jets. On this episode Paul Santoyo joins Oddly Observant to analyze the past 3 games from the Cowboys, and offers some insights on how the Cowboys can escape the losing streak agains the Philadelphia Eagles. We dive into the debate of firing Jason Garret and what Garret has to do to keep his job for the rest of the season and beyond. The Dallas Cowboys’ QB Dakota Prescott is 1st in QBR; for the Cowboys to succeed the rest of the season Dak will have to get Zeke involved in the passing game. Paul brings up that the Dallas Cowboys are approaching the toughest part of their season having to still play New England, Chicago, Seattle, Philadelphia, Minnesota, and the Los Angeles Rams. The loss against the New York Jets is unacceptable for a team with as much talent on the roster as the Dallas Cowboys. Although the top two O-linemen were out, there is no excuse to lose to a winless team after losing two games straight. At the end of the episode we give our updated Super Bowl Predictions and the outlook for the rest of the Dallas Cowboys Season.
