As the U.S. elections approach, Donald Trump has ramped up efforts to appeal to a younger demographic. As a result, he has been appearing on several high-profile podcasts in recent months. However, Trump has yet to make an appearance on the most popular one, The Joe Rogan Experience. That could soon change though, as there are signs that fans may see him on the show in the near future.
Trump is well aware of the rise in YouTube podcasts by social media influencers and wants to be seen by millions. Recently, he appeared at the FULL SEND PODCAST for a casual chat. During the conversation, the host asked him about a potential collaboration with Rogan. In response, Trump gave a rather positive update.ย
Donald Trump praised Rogan for his rise to becoming one of the worldโs top podcasters, while also acknowledging his successful UFC career. The excitement grew even more when Rogan sparked speculation by asking his followers on X about having Trump on the show. Despite Trumpโs love for the UFC and his friendship with Dana White, he has never appeared on JRE.

Although Rogan has invited several political personalities to his podcast, he has never wanted to welcome Trump. He was hesitant to allow Trump to use his platform to promote their campaign, but it appears that circumstances have changed. Additionally, there are reports that Kama Harris might appear on the Joe Rogan podcast. However, itโs safe to assume that UFC fans are more likely to watch the Trump episode.ย
