What Time Is Joe Rogan’s Podcast Episode with Donald Trump?
Rogan’s podcast, “The Joe Rogan Experience,” boasts around 15.7 million followers on Spotify. Here’s what you need to know about his upcoming episode featuring the Republican nominee.
As the presidential race comes to a close, Donald Trump is scheduled to be interviewed by Joe Rogan on his podcast, which boasts around 15.7 million followers—surpassing the population of any of the seven key election battleground states.
Sitting down with the stand-up comedian and UFC announcer is a clear strategy for the former President to connect with younger male audiences. The Republican nominee has also appeared on comedian Theo Von‘s popular show “This Past Weekend” and the podcast “Full Send,” hosted by the pro-Trump NELK Boys (Nick, Elliot, Lucas, and Kyle). But Trump isn’t the only one leveraging these platforms; Kamala Harris previously appeared on the popular show Call Her Daddy, hosted by Alex Cooper.
According to Edison Research, podcasts reach 48% of Americans aged 18-34 each week. Rogan, the former host of NBC’s mid-2000s reality game show Fear Factor, has approximately 17.5 million YouTube subscribers and 19.3 million Instagram followers. Together with his Spotify listeners, he reaches an impressive audience of around 52.5 million.

Where Can I Watch or Listen to Trump’s Episode?

Is Rogan a Trump Supporter?
In 2022, Rogan stated on the Lex Fridman Podcast that he was “not a Trump supporter in any way, shape, or form,” describing Trump as a “polarizing figure” and an “existential threat to democracy itself.” At that time, Rogan also revealed that he had declined multiple opportunities to invite Trump onto his show, saying, “I’ve said no every time. I don’t want to help him.”
Will Harris Appear on Rogan’s Podcast?
Reports have circulated that Harris, who is also in the state at the same time as Trump, might appear on the podcast as well. However, according to Reuters, while Harris’s campaign officials met with Rogan’s team, an appearance by the Democratic presidential nominee on The Joe Rogan Experience will not occur due to scheduling conflicts.
