Podcast Appearances
I think podcasting is a very powerful medium for people to get information.
And to your point, a lot of people, that is a main source of information.
And it's important for us to support that.
I mean, really, it just would be, what were we giving up?
I wanted to do his show, and a lot of people advised me not to do his show because they assumed, as it turned out to be correct, that he was supporting Trump and that it would not be a productive piece for me.
But just like when I went on Fox News with Brett Baier, my perspective was...
They may have their bias, but there are people that listen who are open-minded, and I'm going to go there and give them a chance to get to know me and give me a chance to make my case to them.
So that was my perspective on Joe Rogan, just like it was my perspective on Fox.
There was a lot of games being played around the scheduling, and it didn't happen.
And, you know, I don't have anything against, certainly not against the people who turn on to Joe Rogan and would love to be able to talk with them in a direct manner, as I wanted to during the campaign.
I don't know if it would have made a difference.
But, yeah, no, I wanted to do it.
So let me just say that, right?
So I wanted to do it, and it would have been great to do, and I think it would have been helpful to do.
So it's just, I mean, the issue was really about what's the tradeoff in terms of votes and where I spend my time.
Do I spend my time traveling for five hours and back versus being for that period of time in a swing state?
And that was the tradeoff.
So it wasn't about I don't want to do Joe Rogan.
Believe me, at that point in a campaign, it's not about, oh, is somebody coming to me or me going to them?
I could care less about that.
