Joe Rogan Says Harris Campaign Lied About Her Failed Appearance On His Show, Brings Receipts

Podcaster Joe Rogan said that former Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign team lied about why she didn’t appear on his podcast — and said he had the receipts to prove it.

During “The Joe Rogan Experience” podcast, the host brought up comments made by former Harris campaign insiders in a new book — “Fight: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House” — wherein they accused Rogan of misleading them in efforts to have her on the podcast following then-former President Donald Trump’s appearance on his show.

“One of the things they said that [wasn’t] true was that we lied about the day that Trump was coming on. No, we just didn’t tell you that Trump was coming on,” Rogan said. “This is how it worked: Trump was really easy to book. Like, super easy. We offered one day. He said, ‘Yes.’ That was it. It was no, ‘What are we going to talk about? How long is it going to be? Is it going to be edited?’ … It was so easy. So he was already booked.”

“[The Harris campaign] never committed to doing the show … They said that the reason why they did the Beyoncé event in Houston was so that they could be in Texas to do my show,” he added. “They never agreed to do the show. None of that’s true … They also said that they sent someone down here to the studio to do a walk-through of the set. That’s not true … These people didn’t have a date, they never agreed to do the show.”

“Even after Trump went on, they offered for me to come to D.C. and do a show with Kamala,” Rogan continued. “But even then … it was only like 45 minutes to an hour. And it was not on my set. And I said that, ‘Look, [Trump] did it here. We should probably do it here, if it’s possible’ … By the way we have all the receipts, by the way. Of course, I have a whole list of conversations that took place …”

Rogan also hit back at the “idea that we f**ked her over and we f**ked her over for Trump” and said it’s not true.

“But I think it’s someone trying to cover their a** for the fact that she never did it, and if she did do it, it might have had a positive effect … things could’ve been different, who knows?” the podcast host said, noting the massive response Trump got from it. 

Rogan shared some of the crazy demands from the Harris campaign which included having “staff in the room” and “a stenographer,” noting that Trump was just in there by himself. 

“[The Harris insiders are] saying we were difficult to deal with. Not true,” the podcast host said. “We were super easy. But also it’s got to be the actual real show. It shouldn’t be some fake version of it where I’m sitting in a conference room … They wanted it very controlled, and they were really concerned that [the podcast] wasn’t going to be edited.”

A senior Harris aide told the New York Post that “the reason the Vice President didn’t appear on Joe Rogan was simply scheduling.”

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
