After interviewing Trump for around three hours last week on an episode of his podcast that has since raked in millions of views, Joe Rogan shared more details Wednesday about why Harris has not appeared on his show.
In the latest installment of “The Joe Rogan Experience,” the series’ host said Harris’ campaign initially reached out to him to inquire about scheduling an appearance, but the logistics didn’t work out.
“I said, ‘Great, I would love to talk to her.’ But it was very difficult to tie it down,” Rogan said in Wednesday’s episode. “They wanted to travel and see the thing is, if I go somewhere, then there’s going to be other people in the room. And they want to control a lot of things, I’m sure.”
Rogan acknowledged the fact he didn’t agree to the campaign’s terms could make him seem like “a diva.”
“But she had an opportunity to come here when she was in Texas, and I literally gave them an open invitation. I said anytime,” he said. “I said if she’s done at 10, we’ll come back here at 10. I go, I’ll do it at nine in the morning, I’ll do it at 10 p.m. I’ll do it at midnight if she’s up, if she wants to, you know, drink a Red Bull. Party on.”
Rogan previously addressed plans to sit down with the Democratic presidential nominee in a post on X.
“They offered a date for Tuesday, but I would have had to travel to her and they only wanted to do an hour,” he wrote. “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.”
