Legendary podcast host Joe Rogan has brought “all the receipts” to confirm that the Kamala Harris campaign is lying about the reasons why she did not appear on his show.
Fight: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House, a recently published book about Harris campaign, falsely claimed that Rogan was to blame for the former vice president not appearing on his show in the final days of the 2024 election. According to Rogan, the author wrote “a bunch of things that weren’t true” about Harris not appearing on his show, and the person was likely “trying to cover their a— for the fact that she never did it.”
“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. He was already booked a long time ago,” the podcast host explained.
Rogan went on to give details about what actually happened, stating: “Trump was really easy to book, like super easy. We offered one day, he said, ‘Yes,’ that was it. There was no, ‘What are we going to talk about? How long is it going to be? Is it going to be edited?’ There was nothing.”
He noted that Trump said “What’s the waiver? Here, give me that waiver,” and then immediately “signed it.”
“It was so easy. So he was already booked,” he added.
Rogan then confirmed that the Harris campaign “never committed to doing the show” — calling out the lies from the book that “the reason why they did the Beyonce event in Houston was so that they could be in Texas to do my show,” which was a lie because they “never agreed to do the show. None of that’s true. They never agreed.”
The book also claimed that the Harris campaign had “sent someone down here to the studio to do a walk-through of the set,” Rogan said, adding: “That’s not true.”
While the Secret Service did a walkthrough of Rogan’s studio for Trump’s visit, no one from the Harris campaign ever came to the studio.
Wow, so @KamalaHarris' team outright lied to the authors of this new book about her dispatching a team to do a "walk-through of Rogan's studio and get ready for a Harris arrival."

Rogan then pointed out that soon after Trump appeared on the show and got nearly 50 million views, he was then contacted by Harris campaign staffers who requested that he travel to Washington, D.C., to interview Harris. However, Rogan has a specific design for his show and giving Harris special treatment would not have gone over well. The campaign reportedly demanded that, instead of the typical three-hour format that Trump agreed to, Rogan could only interview Harris for “45 minutes to an hour” and it couldn’t be on his usual set.
“And I said, ‘Look, [Trump] did it here. We should probably do it here,’” Rogan said.
“It’s got to be the actual real show,” he added. “It shouldn’t be some fake version of it where I’m sitting in a conference room.”
“I wanted to release both of them on the same day. This was my goal,” Rogan continued. “I even offered to do it late that night — so the night that Trump came on, I’m like, ‘What if we do [Harris] when she’s done in Texas?’ But no one ever committed to doing it.”
Rogan went on to note that “they keep pretending that I lied,” but the truth is that the Harris campaign is lying.
“I have all the receipts, by the way. I have a whole list of conversations that took place,” he added. “So this whole idea that we f—ed her over for Trump? Incorrect. Just not true.”
Rogan also pointed out that someone on Harris’ staff is clearly “trying to cover their a— for the fact that she never did it” — because “if she did do it, it might have had a positive effect” on her chances in the election.
“If her and I had a good time, and we got along great, and she won over the ‘young male vote,’ things could have been different. So this guy’s probably trying to cover his a—,” he added.
“Also, they wanted a stenographer in the room, they wanted staff in the room,” Rogan revealed, referring to the Harris campaign’s demands. “They wanted it very controlled, and they were really concerned that it wasn’t going to be edited.”
Meanwhile, Rogan noted that “Trump was in here by himself” during his three-hour interview.
“Just me, him, and Jamie,” he said, referring to his producer. “That’s it. For three hours.”
