Austin Hosts Historic Interview: Joe Rogan Chats with Donald Trump

Austin, Texas, witnessed a memorable moment when popular podcaster Joe Rogan interviewed former President Donald Trump on October 25, 2024. This marks the first time a former president has been featured on The Joe Rogan Experience, a podcast known for its in-depth discussions and vast audience.

A Long Discussion

The nearly three-hour interview aired on Rogan’s social media channels and touched on various topics, including politics and the recent endorsement of Trump by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Trump confirmed his support for Kennedy, saying, “Oh, I completely am” when asked if he was committed to bringing Kennedy into his administration. However, he expressed a few concerns, mentioning their different views on the environment. He stated, “Because he doesn’t like oil, I love oil and gas,” indicating a clear division in their priorities.

Why Rogan’s Podcast Matters

Rogan’s podcast has gained immense popularity, boasting an audience of over 14 million listeners on Spotify. His approach, which includes interviews with a variety of guests—from scientists to entertainers—has resulted in a diverse listener base. According to research, the demographics of Rogan’s audience are evenly split among Democrats, Republicans, and independents, providing candidates like Trump a unique platform to reach multiple voter groups just days before the upcoming Election Day on November 5.

The podcast’s broad audience allows candidates to engage with key voter segments, especially younger audiences and independents, making it an invaluable opportunity as they ramp up their campaigns.

A Look at Joe Rogan

Joe Rogan, aged 57, gained fame as a comedian and actor before starting his podcast in 2009. He is best known for his role on NBC’s sitcom NewsRadio and for hosting the game show Fear Factor. With the podcast reaching a notable milestone of 11 million listeners by 2015, Rogan secured a lucrative contract with Spotify in 2020, reportedly worth $250 million.

Rogan describes himself as a “bleeding heart liberal” but has shared views on various political topics, believing in the Second Amendment and supporting military and police, while also advocating for a strong social safety net. His podcast has hosted a wide range of political figures, from progressive voices like Bernie Sanders to conservative activists.

Rogan on Trump

Throughout the years, Rogan has expressed mixed feelings about Trump, labeling him a “polarizing figure.” In the past, he had stated he would never have Trump on his show, but this recent interview marked a significant change in that stance.

Life in Austin

Residing in Austin, Rogan and his family live in a stunning 11,000-square-foot house designed by renowned architect Marcio Kogan. The luxurious home features eight bedrooms, a gym, a sauna, a wine cellar, and a pool, highlighting Rogan’s success in the entertainment industry.

On the personal front, Rogan married Jessica Ditzel in 2009, and they have two daughters together. Ditzel’s charismatic personality shines through in Rogan’s praises, as he describes her as a “happy person” who enhances the quality of life around her.

Conclusion
