    Did you even listen to the audio where he was just yelling over the lady and didn’t ever give her a chance to say anything?

    Do you think that would have been in any way productive?

      I did listen and while Rogan is unbearable to me, I do think a presidential candidate can’t say no to an invitation to someone with this reach. If the interview were to be like your link, that would have helped Harris in the end, in my opinion. It’s Joe Rogan the one acting like an idiot here, not the caller. Even if his audience may love him, I don’t know, the population that do not have any attachment for the guy would stand on Harris’ side.

      So what? It’s 3 hours, I’m sure she would have been able to get something out. Rogan is not stupid, he understands the difference between random lady and a potencial commander in chief . She should have gone to Infowars while she’s at it, I’m not joking. Step out of your comfort zone and reach the audience you don’t typically reach.

      Dems should stop being such a pussies

          He does this yelling stunts to entertain his audience. They like that, - that’s the format.
          It’s not stupid on his end - clearly he makes millions from it.

          Raw Republican audience she could have easily reached and talked about things they care about - jobs, working class needs.

            Rich = smart? So Trump and Elon are smart?

            Joe Rogan didn’t believe in the moon landing. In that clip above, he believed stupid internet bullshit over an actual scientist. On top of that, he’s an antivaxxer.

            There are so many examples of stupid shit Joe Rogan has said.

            I know he sells pills that he claims will make you smart. He hasn’t shown much evidence of it.

              Imo he’s just pandering to his base, doesn’t make him dumb, makes his base dumb.

              Besides what Rogan and Alex Jones believe into is none of my problem. It’s just a way to get to their audiences.

              All I’m saying Kamala should have went to the show and prepped talking points and talked about issues important to the largest demographic: working people.
