Democratic California Rep. Ro Khanna said Wednesday that Vice President Kamala Harris should have appeared on prominent podcaster Joe Rogan’s show before the election.
Rogan’s plans to conduct a one-on-one interview with Harris on his popular podcast, “The Joe Rogan Experience,” fell apart after Rogan denied the Harris campaign’s request for him to travel out to the vice president and only interview her for the duration of one hour, the podcaster said on X. Khanna said Harris made a campaign mistake by not appearing on the podcast to make her platform known to Rogan’s millions of listeners.
“I’m confident we’re gonna rebuild in 2026 and we’ll win back the White House in 2028 and we gotta listen, we gotta go on some of these podcasts, I was just on “All In [with Chris Hayes] saying we should’ve done, in my view, Joe Rogan, go on all the podcasts and listen to what we need to know and and have a compelling economic message,” Khanna told MSNBC’s Jen Psaki. “But I’m still very hopeful about the party and our future.”
An undecided voter ultimately chose to support Trump over Harris because she did not appear on Rogan’s podcast, MSNBC correspondent Gadi Schwartz said Tuesday. Rogan’s show has over 14 million Spotify followers and 18.3 million YouTube subscribers, and has an audience of 80% male viewers, with 51% falling between the ages of 18-34, according to Edison Research.
President-elect Donald Trump appeared on the podcast for an Oct. 26 interview spanning nearly 3 hours, which garnered over 46.7 million views as of Thursday. Rogan endorsed Trump on Monday, just one day before the election.
The president-elect defeated Harris early Wednesday and currently holds 295 electoral votes, with Arizona and Nevada yet to be called.

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
