Joe Rogan's most requested podcast guest claims he is finally set to appear on his show.
The Joe Rogan Experience is arguably the biggest and most popular podcast in the world, averaging a staggering 11 million listens per episode.
In 2020, Rogan penned a lucrative $100 million deal with Spotify and his guests vary from Elon Musk to Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson.
He's had pretty much every notable celebrity in his company on the show, but there's one particular person that Rogan has regularly rejected.
Donald Trump, the 45th president of the United States, is believed to be an avid listener of the podcast and it's been reported that his circle had been lobbying for him to make an appearance.

The pair shook hands at UFC 290 in Las Vegas when Trump was cageside for the fight card.
However, the UFC commentator, who once called Trump a "man-baby" refused to talk with him on air.
"I’m not a Trump supporter in any way, shape or form,” Rogan told Lex Fridman back in 2022.

“I’ve had the opportunity to have him on my show more than once. I’ve said no every time. I don’t want to help him. I’m not interested in helping him.”
Yet it seems as though things could be about to change. Speaking to Nelk boys, a channel Trump has appeared on before, the 78-year-old claims he will be going on 'JRE'.
Asked if he would be open to being a guest, Trump replied: "Sure I would. I think I'm doing it. Yeah I am. Joe became so well-known because of the UFC and he does a great job.
"A good guy and he's got a good voice, that's important."

In the past, a Trump adviser expressed excitement about the possibility of him sitting down with Rogan, stating it would be an "incredible audience".
It remains to be seen whether Trump will appear prior to the US presidential election, which takes place in three weeks.
