It finally happened: Donald Trump sat down with Joe Rogan, host of the world’s most listened-to podcast, on Friday, Oct. 25. As of writing, the interview is nearing an epic 30 *million* views on YouTube, and that doesn’t include anyone who downloads the podcast on Spotify. The video has 1.5 million “likes” on YouTube and only 32k dislikes, for an approval rate of about 98%.
For reference, Harris’ hyped interview with the sex podcast “Call Her Daddy” (look up how the podcast got it’s name if you want to lose brain cells) hasn’t topped 700k views in 3 weeks. The video has 18k likes and 87k likes, meaning only 17% approved of the video.
If you missed it – here are the highlights, courtesy of The Vigilant Fox, who is a great follow on X.
The two men began by discussing Trump’s coverage in the media. “I only get bad press,” the former president said, before Rogan referred to a clip from The View praising Trump in 2015.
Rogan expressed an interest in the logistics of the presidency, particularly the New Yorker’s first day in the White House. It was here when Trump admitted the “biggest mistake” of his first term.
Both men have a shared ally in the form of Elon Musk. The business magnate is a regular guest on Rogan’s podcast, and a vocal supporter of Trump. Naturally, Musk became a topic of conversation in the three-hour podcast.
In a sentiment many conservatives can agree with, the UFC broadcaster described the GOP as the “rebels” of society.
Trump confirmed that he plans to have ex-Democrat Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as part of his administration…
…much to the annoyance of Big Pharma.
Despite rumors Kamala Harris would also be interviewed by Rogan, Trump remained unconvinced she would be able to handle three hours without a teleprompter.
As the podcast drew to a close, Trump explored the possibility of opening the files on John F. Kennedy’s assassination.
In typical Rogan fashion, the podcast concluded with a discussion on aliens.
