Spotify Remove Episodes of Joe Rogan’s Podcast Featuring Racial Slurs
Spotify reportedly removed 70 episodes of The Joe Rogan Experience on Friday evening, according to CNET. The episodes in question all pre-date 2019 and are unrelated to Rogan’s ongoing controversy over COVID-19 misinformation.

The Boondocks Reboot Canceled at HBO Max
Cross The Boondocks off your list of upcoming television revivals. According to Deadline, HBO Max’s planned reboot of the animated series has been officially been canceled.

While it’s unclear why production stalled on the project, Sony is reportedly evaluating other options for the series. Advertisement R...
