Joe Rogan Listeners Are Likely To Vote For...


With days to go until election day in the U.S., the battle for undecided voters has taken a twist as both Vice President Harris and former President Trump utilize podcasts to reach potential voters. According to Edison Research, the Joe Rogan Experience stands out as a prime platform, being the number one podcast in the U.S. among weekly listeners age 13+ according to Edison Podcast Metrics™.

Known for its influence and large audience, Rogan’s show offers a unique opportunity for candidates to connect with younger, often independent-minded listeners in an unconventional setting. Rogan’s audience skews overwhelmingly male (80%), with a majority of listeners (51%) falling within the critical 18-34 age range. Politically, 35% of listeners identify as Independent or “something else,” while 32% align with Republicans, and 27% align with Democrats.

Trump recently appeared on Rogan’s podcast in an almost-three-hour episode, which gave him the opportunity to reach potential voters with long-form content. Rogan is apparently still in discussions with the Harris campaign about a possible appearance, but as we publish this, no date has been confirmed. Fifty-four percent of weekly Joe Rogan listeners lean toward Trump and 26% favor Harris. The 16% undecided among Rogan's audience highlights a critical group that both candidates are vying for.
