Summary
- Roganbot, created by two journalists, transcribes and analyzes Joe Rogan's podcast so you don't have to wade through 240+ days of content.
- These "visibility tools" could help newsrooms track ideas across media ecosystems, from conspiracy theories to mainstream coverage.
- Former journalists Waddell and Swanson aim to expand beyond Rogan to trace how ideas spread through right-wing media networks.
