Analysis of the audio suggests a high level of preparation, with some observers claiming to hear hidden messages like "Merry Christmas" when the recording is played in reverse. The targeted AT&T "Batman Building" is noted for its 33-story height and location at 333 Commerce Street.

Spotify's recent $235 million acquisition of Megaphone suggests a struggle to deliver the targeted ad numbers promised by their proprietary streaming engine. If Spotify is found to be a publisher of Rogan's content, they could face direct liability for any claims of libel or misinformation.
