Back in 2022, Joe Rogan had stated, “I’ve had the opportunity to have him on my show more than once—I’ve said no, every time”, about the possibility of a conversation with Donald Trump. However, with the JRE (Joe Rogan Episode) no. 2219, Rogan sent shockwaves in the media landscape as he sat down for an almost 3-hour-long conversation with the former president.
The podcast is known for having some of the biggest names from various walks of life delving into fascinating conversations. However, having a former POTUS and current presidential candidate sit down for a long-form interview is no small feat. Yet, the episode has seemingly been facing issues on YouTube as Joe Rogan recently took to social media to highlight the fact that there might be something else brewing behind the scenes!

When the JRE episode no.2219 was uploaded to YouTube, it faced a surprising issue. What was it? It appeared as though the episode was unlisted, causing a frenzy amongst the fan base with speculation running rampant on what could have caused it. But Joe Rogan managed to clear the air as he took to X and stated, “There is no issue with YouTube censoring the trump episode. It was just supposed to go live on both Spotify and YouTube at the same time and there was a glitch in Spotify’s upload system and so we delisted the YouTube link until it’s fixed. It should be fine now…”
But it appears that now there is another hurdle that may have popped up! In a recent post shared on Instagram, the JRE host revealed, “There seems to be an “issue” where the Trump podcast is “difficult” to search for on YouTube…”
Rather than just wait or speculate, he took matters into his own hands as he further shared, “…I’ve uploaded it to X.” Rogan’s choice to go around the problem only heightens the intrigue surrounding this episode. Did YouTube really make it harder to find his conversation with Trump? Or was it simply a glitch?

Is YouTube deliberately hiding Joe Rogan's explosive interview with Donald Trump?
Have an interesting take?
Currently, the Donald Trump episode sits at 36 million views on YouTube! What’s more impressive is that it’s taken only 3 days for the episode to amass the staggering numbers. Episode no. 1315 with Bob Lazar and Jeremy Corbell still holds the top spot with 61 million views, but it was uploaded almost 5 years ago, reinforcing the magnitude of the former president’s JRE appearance.
But what about Kamala Harris? With Donald Trump already having graced the JRE studio, is there a possibility that the vice-president also makes a stop on Rogan’s show? According to a recent post by Joe Rogan on X, there seems to be one factor that’s hindering the episode.

Rogan reveals Kamala Harris’s podcast appearance still being worked on
Joe Rogan’s episode with Donald Trump proved a blockbuster, drawing attention from audiences across the spectrum. Trump’s media appearances are no stranger to controversy, and his chat with Rogan didn’t hold back.
As part of the conversation, the topic of Kamala Harris making a JRE appearance came up. Trump had a blunt take, predicting Harris would struggle to hold her own. But surprisingly, Rogan pushed back by stating, “I will talk to her like a human being. I would try to have a conversation with her. I think we’d have a fine conversation.”

Now, in a recent post shared on X, the JRE host has revealed, “Also, for the record the Harris campaign has not passed on doing the podcast. They offered a date for Tuesday, but I would have had to travel to her and they only wanted to do an hour. I strongly feel the best way to do it is in the studio in Austin… I really hope we can make it happen.”
With Trump’s unmistakable energy and Rogan’s unconventional approach, it’s no wonder that the prospect of a Kamala Harris-Rogan podcast has listeners intrigued. In an era where political conversations are often reduced to soundbites and heated debates, Rogan’s proposal to connect with Harris on a human level stands out. Do you think we’ll get to see the vice president make an appearance on the JRE soon? Why or Why not? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!
