Former President Donald Trump is all geared up for arguably his biggest and most important campaign interview during this 2024 presidential campaign. So where is he getting interviewed? Well, where else but “The Joe Rogan Experience.” Trump’s campaign confirmed that the Republican candidate will be interviewed this Friday. And we can be rest assured, this surely would be an experience that nobody would want to miss. This was also confirmed by Rogan, who posted on X with the simple tweet, “Here we go!”
The race to be on the podcast has been intense between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. After all, the Joe Rogan Experience has been at the top of the country’s podcast rankings for years. With more than 14 million listeners on Spotify and 17 million subscribers on YouTube, the show is especially followed by young men. As we all know, it is a key demographic in this election. While many expected that Harris’ spot was all but confirmed, Trump became the first one to seal his appearance instead. However, he will have to be careful now since fans are making a special request to the JRE host regarding the interview.
This isn’t the first podcast that Donald Trump is attending in this campaign. The politician and businessman’s visit to Rogan’s studio follows in the wake of his participation in other popular podcasts among men, such as “This Week” by Theo Vaughn, “Full Send” by the Nelk Boys, or “Bussin with the Boys” by Barstool Sports. But Joe Rogan is a different breed altogether that’s known for taking a completely different approach to interviewing.
While most of the interviews nowadays are usually made up of pre-set questions, Joe Rogan is known for diving into things often left untouched, such as past controversies, beliefs, and aliens. And that’s definitely what the fans want to see. Joe Rogan being all uncensored and brash will surely bring out the true side of the Republican candidate, which can be really fun to see. After all, Trump is known for his wit, and Rogan is a comedian. So it truly can be an experience that’ll really boost the voter share for the former POTUS.
Here we go!

However, it is worth noting that earlier this year, Trump criticized Rogan on social media after he said that the major-party candidates for the U.S. election were manipulative, except for Robert Kennedy Jr., then an independent candidate. Rogan is also known for being highly anti-Trump. So surely it would be a fun ride for the fans if the two decide to address their differences on the show.
Fans throw in their thoughts on Donald Trump’s appearance
As soon as the confirmation of the podcast hit the internet, it blew up and broke Twitter. Fans couldn’t help but share their thoughts and expectations when it came to the most-awaited edition of the Joe Rogan Experience so far. And that’s why several fans requested that Rogan should definitely not be filtering his questions. Two fans wrote that they hoped Joe Rogan would be allowed to speak his mind and ask the questions he wants. “Please dear Lord, let DJT have a normal conversation with Rogan….” and “I hope Rogan doesn’t soften up on him with pre-prepped questions.”
Another fan believed that the UFC commentator should go as far as talking about mushrooms, neuralink, and other controversial topics to spice things up. He wrote, “I hope Rogan just goes full Rogan and rants about mushrooms, chimps, stem cells, and DMT at him for 45 minutes.” This user doesn’t want Rogan to dive deep into the iceberg of the internet controversies. He believes the reason Rogan agreed to the podcast is because he was given the liberty to ask whatever set of questions he wished to. “I think that the reason Joe agreed to do this interview is because Trump and his team agreed to Joes rules (the lack of them) and the unscripted nature of these sit downs.”
Prepared or unprepared, while the nature of the interview still remains a mystery for the fans, there is one thing that they are sure about, and that is the popularity of the episode. As soon as the news hit of the upcoming episode, fans were sure that this edition would break the internet. So taking to Twitter, many users gave out their predictions. Some users believed it would be the most watched podcast episode in the history of podcasting, as they wrote, “This will be the biggest podcast in history” and “About to break the internet.” While another user truly felt that it might also give competition to the viewership records of several series finales of TV shows. “100%!!! this will shatter every podcast record… It’s going to give some TV finale’s a run for their money. Absolutely insane how big this will be.” Well, the buzz is truly there, now it is up to the two to live up to the hype. What do you think? Will Joe Rogan be able to bring out the best out of Trump? Let us know in the comments.
