That’s especially true of Booth, through no fault of Boyle’s, who as written possesses less depth than his flamboyantly villainous mustache. “Manhunt” sounds promising on paper, only to mirror Apple’s even-splashier World War II series “Masters of the Air” by offering a meticulously produced window into the past that only fitfully gets off the ground. “Manhunt” premieres March 15 on Apple TV+.

Neil Young on Wednesday said his music will return to Spotify , just over two years after he and other artists removed their catalogues from the music streaming platform amid a vaccine disinformation dispute. Spotify announced a multi-year deal with Rogan last month that removed its exclusivity, meaning "The Joe Rogan Experience" will return to platforms, including Apple Podcasts, YouTube and Amazon Music. Young previously said Spotify accounted for 60% of his global streaming revenue, prior to his departure. The move placed Spotify in a position to choose between numerous legendary musical figures and the controversial but hugely popular Joe Rogan podcast, which was its most streamed show in 2023.
