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 Beyonc� 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.�
This is what actually happened with Kamala not coming on the podcast.

�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.�
