Former President Trump plans to tape an interview on Friday with Joe Rogan for his podcast, which has the biggest audience of any podcast in the U.S., according to a person familiar with the plans.

Why it matters: Trump is trying to court young male voters — seeing the demographic as key to his path to the White House — and Rogan's podcast is particularly popular among male listeners.

Politico first reported on Trump's plans to go on the podcast.
The Harris campaign has also reportedly spoken with Rogan's team about appearing on the podcast, but no plans have been set.

Driving the news: Trump is expected to sit for the interview taping with Rogan at his studio in Austin, Texas, per Politico.

The former president has recently participated in other interviews with hosts who are popular among young men, such as Theo Von, as he continues to try to appeal to younger male voters.
