Newsweek has reached out to Spotify for comment but received no response by the time of publication. But the disappearance is certainly noteworthy given the controversy around the podcast and its host-under fire over COVID-19 misinformation and use of racial slurs-and the removal of dozens of episodes. The show now appears to be available again and it is not clear why it vanished.
