Joe Rogan Open To Kamala Harris Podcast Interview But Only If She Travels To Him

Joe Rogan has said he “really” hopes he can make a podcast interview with Democrat Presidential candidate Kamala Harris happen, but he wants to set the terms of engagement.

In a message on social media, Rogan wrote that Harris had “not passed on doing the podcast,” but that the travel and format arrangements her team had offered made it unfeasible. Rogan wants Harris to travel to his studio in Austin, Texas, for the recording and for it to run over two to three hours — the usual length of his recordings.

Harris’ rival Donald Trump recently made a lengthy appearance on Rogan’s podcast after travelling to the studio.

After linking to his interview with Trump on The Joe Rogan Experience, podcaster and comedian Rogan wrote: “[F]or the record the Harris campaign has not passed on doing the podcast. They offered a date for Tuesday, but I would have had to travel to her and they only wanted to do an hour. I strongly feel the best way to do it is in the studio in Austin. My sincere wish is to just have a nice conversation and get to know her as a human being. I really hope we can make it happen.”

Last week, a spokesperson for the Harris campaign said her team had been in contact with Rogan about an appearance, but that scheduling clashes meant it “isn’t going to work out” at this stage in the election cycle.

Rogan’s audience skews young male, which could have provided Harris with a platform to reach a group that will have a big say on who next takes the keys for the White House. The Joe Rogan Experience has 14.5 million Spotify followers and nearly 18 million YouTube subscribers.

The election takes place on November 5 after one of the closest and most bitterly fought campaigns in U.S. history. Earlier this week, Trump called Democrats “the enemy from within” in a tirade at his Madison Square Garden rally.
