Donald Trump to make first appearance on Joe Rogan’s podcast ahead of 2024 U.S. election

Former president Donald Trump is set to appear on Joe Rogan's podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience, for the first time, just weeks before the 2024 U.S. election. According to Politico, the episode will be recorded on October 25 at Rogan’s studio in Austin, Texas. The release date of the podcast has yet to be confirmed. Rogan, whose show was the No. 1 ranked podcast on Spotify during its exclusive deal, faced backlash earlier this year from Trump supporters over his praise of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Rogan had commented, “He’s the only one that makes sense to me,” but clarified he was not endorsing Kennedy.

In response, Trump criticized Rogan on Truth Social in August, saying, “It will be interesting to see how loudly Joe Rogan gets BOOED the next time he enters the UFC Ring??? MAGA2024.” Rogan had also made comments about Vice President Kamala Harris, suggesting she could beat Trump in the election. “I could see her winning,” Rogan said in July, but added he wasn’t making a prediction.

Rogan’s interview with Trump comes as Harris recently appeared on the Call Her Daddy podcast, where she discussed abortion rights, student loan forgiveness, and responded to Trump’s criticisms.
