• Joe Rogan has plenty of fans - including one who, in 2017, asked a friend "Could you introduce me, I think he's funny". That person? Jeffrey Epstein. Today, Podnews looks at the Epstein podcast files - shows he listened to, that he was recommended, podcasts he was asked to help pay to make, and even the video podcasts filmed in his house.
