Probably his contract says he has to apologize if he's causing Spotify to be embarrassed, like if he doesn't then they can drop him without paying out the rest of the contract.
He had already said some offensive to the left things by then so Spotify must have been concerned. Basically he's being paid like 50+ million to be a pussy.

That was the first thing that came to mind for me: That he's apologizing because Spotify told him to and he's contractually obligated. IMO that doesn't make him look any better for it, though.

But then the whole thing seems complicated by the fact that these are old episodes that already existed when Spotify and Rogan signed the contract. Which I'm guessing is why they might not just drop him now; he'd probably take them to court and say that they should have known about the content of episodes that they willingly paid for.

That was the trap of the $100 million deal.....it was a collar and Joe fell for it.
