LONGBOAT
KEY, Fla., March 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, the
video sharing platform Rumble announced that influential Brazilian
podcast host Bruno Aiub, known as "Monark," and left-wing activist
Reginaldo Ferreira da Silva, known
as "Ferréz," will publish their shows exclusively on Rumble. Both
creators will host their shows multiple times each week on Rumble
and make Locals their exclusive communities to offer
subscription-only benefits to their supporters. Like the Joe Rogan
Experience, both shows will offer only short clips on YouTube and
other streaming services as a promotion to encourage users to view
the full shows on Rumble and Locals.
"Rapidly growing Big Tech censorship – overseen by U.S.-based
corporations – is not something that affects only the US. Online
censorship is now pervasive in Brazil and is still gaining strength. Given
that Brazil is one of the largest
and most online countries in the world, the union of the state, the
judiciary and Big Tech monopolies are eager to control speech,"
said Bruno Aiub. "I'm very excited that a large and growing
platform like Rumble is now ready to expand in Brazil, enabling journalists, commentators and
content creators to speak freely and fight against censorship. As
of now, Rumble will be the only platform in Brazil truly devoted to free discourse and
free thought."
According to the New York Times, Monark is "Brazil's version of Joe Rogan," and "perhaps the nation's most
popular podcaster. He broadcasts hours long interviews, often with
divisive newsmakers" and he is one of Brazil's "most important interlocutors and
most influential voices." An advocate of free speech, Monark is
noted for his wide-ranging discussions with guests from all
different walks of life. By some measures, his "Flow" podcast
is the most-listened-to podcast in Brazil.
"Our causes and urgencies need their own media, if the story is
ours, we should tell it." Said Reginaldo Ferrreira da Silva.
Ferréz is a Brazilian left-wing activist, author, poet
and rapper. He is the leader of Literatura Marginal, or Marginal
Literature, a movement that depicts daily life in the favelas of
Brazil and others living on the
margins of society.
"Adding Monark and Ferréz expands Rumble's reach into
Brazil in an explosive and a
neutral way," said Rumble CEO Chris
Pavlovski ahead of the announcement. "Monark is one of the
most popular podcasters in Brazil,
and his fans will now be able to access him uncensored on Rumble
and Locals. Ferréz is an influential left wing cultural figure who
reaches a large, underserved audience."
Monark will launch his channel and live show on April 4th, 2022 and Ferréz will
launch his channel and live show on April
8th, 2022.
