Joe Rogan says an interview with Kamala Harris is not off the table, even though he rejected her conditions, including travel to her meeting

Kamala Harris can't get Joe Rogan out of his studio. Donald Trump recently sat down with Rogan for his podcast. The Joe Rogan Experience, Spotify's baby and a sought-after source of entertainment or even information for young men. It's a close race, and young men appear to be leaning toward Trump. So you can imagine that Harris appearing on Rogan's podcast could be beneficial to her campaign if he doesn't cause more damage.

On Tuesday Rogan wrote in. They offered an appointment for Tuesday, but I would have had to drive to her and they only wanted to do an hour. I firmly believe this is best done in the studio in Austin. My sincere wish is to simply have a nice conversation and get to know her as a person. I really hope we can do it.”

He seems to be suggesting that a conversation with the vice president isn't off the table, as long as it takes place in his studio in Austin and perhaps lasts longer than an hour. (Rogan's conversation with Trump lasted three hours.) But with the presidential election just a week away, it's hard to predict when that will happen, especially considering Harris delivered her prosecutor-style closing argument on Tuesday night . Interestingly, Trump's vice presidential candidate JD Vance will sit down with Rogan in his studio on Wednesday.

Rogan's post received a comment from none other than Trump's fiercest supporter and richest man in the world: Elon Musk. After all, he donated at least $132 million to elect Trump and other Republicans. “Good explanation. I would definitely check out this podcast,” he wrote, adding that the second hour would resemble the smiling, melting face emoji. You have to decide for yourself what that means.

During Trump's own appearance on Rogan's show, the former president said he hoped Harris would do the podcast because “it would be a mess.” Rogan, however, said he thought they would “have a good conversation.” Trump's conversation with Rogan, in which they discussed alleged election fraud, Mars, taxes and tariffs, among other things, has more than 40 million views on YouTube alone.

Whatever happens, Harris has already been seen with Alex Cooper Call her dad, Spotify's second baby, also a sought-after source of entertainment with a mix of advice, if you will, and open discussion for young women. Not to mention, Cooper traveled to Washington, D.C. to chat with Harris; Their conversation touched on what Harris calls her modern family, her famous question to Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh during his confirmation hearings and her housing plan, among other things.

Anyway, in this podcast and social media-driven election, both Cooper and Rogan faced some backlash after deciding to have politicians on their shows. It's not clear which presidential candidate or performances made the difference, but currently polls show Harris with the slimmest lead over Trump.
