The finding
What the evidence shows
The deal is real, the number is not public. MrBallen signed an exclusive content deal with Amazon in 2022 that moved his podcast to Amazon Music for three years, and he later moved to SiriusXM. Neither side has disclosed what the Amazon deal was worth, so $62 million is not a figure anyone can check.
