Former President Donald Trump is scheduled to appear for the first time on The Joe Rogan Experience, just weeks before the 2024 U.S. election. According to Politico, the episode will be recorded on October 25 at Joe Rogan’s studio in Austin, Texas, though the release date is still unconfirmed.
Rogan’s podcast, ranked No. 1 on Spotify during its exclusive deal, sparked controversy earlier this year when Rogan praised Robert F. Kennedy Jr., stating, “He’s the only one that makes sense to me,” though he later clarified that this was not an endorsement. This drew criticism from Trump, who responded on Truth Social in August, speculating about how Rogan might be received by his supporters: “It will be interesting to see how loudly Joe Rogan gets BOOED the next time he enters the UFC Ring??? MAGA2024.”
Rogan had also stirred debate by suggesting that Vice President Kamala Harris could potentially defeat Trump in the upcoming election. “I could see her winning,” Rogan commented in July, while clarifying that he wasn’t making any predictions.
Trump’s upcoming interview on Rogan’s podcast follows Harris’s recent appearance on Call Her Daddy, where she discussed key issues such as abortion rights, student loan forgiveness, and responded to Trump’s criticisms.
