The leaders of the Harris-Walz project went on Pod Save America to speak about the pods that did not conserve America. Or pod and food-themed YouTube program, whatever. Jen O’Malley Dillon, David Plouffe, Quentin Fulks, and Stephanie Cutter unloaded the coconut project with Dan Pfeiffer and talked about Hot Ones handing down Kamala Harris, and the scheduling snafu that kept her off The Joe Rogan Experience
Pfeiffer asked the Harris staffers why we never ever saw Harris do the last dab. “Like there never ever in time has actually there been a prospect much better fit for a podcast than Kamala Harris on Hot Ones,” he stated. Cutter stated, as she remembered, “that they didn’t wan na look into politics.” Perhaps, turning away from politics is a naturally political act, however whatever. In August 2024, Sean Evans informed Vulture that it’s “been sort of peaceful” as far as projects connecting to be on the program, however that he ‘d be “down to moderate an argument,Hot Ones–design.”
The Harris-Walz group likewise attended to not going on Joe Rogan. As Rogan informed it, the project just used him 40 minutes in New York rather of the 2+ hours in Austin to which he is accustomed. “It’s quite basic. We wished to do it,” Cutter stated. “So, we had conversations with Joe Rogan’s group. They were terrific. They desired us to come on. We wished to begin. We attempted to get a date to make it work, and eventually we simply weren’t able to discover a date.” Rather of going on Rogan, Harris went to Houston to appear at a rally with Beyoncé. “As it ends up, that was the day that Trump was taping his Joe Rogan,” Cutter stated. “But it, you understand, didn’t eventually affect the result one method or the other. She was prepared to do whatever it takes.”
