>Federal Conservative leader Joe Rogan has done a podcast with Joe Rogan.
You heard it hear first from Castanet, Joe Rogan will be the next leader of the Conservative Party of Canada.
Otherwise this article amounts to an announcement. I don’t believe the episode has aired yet.

Ugh. Has there been a worse headline? What is Pierre trying to do? Activate Canada’s silent majority of libertarian meatheads? Joe Rogan has regularly demonstrated willing intellectual dishonesty while plaforming conspiracy theorists, white supremacists and the Epstein class that back Trump. People who normalised and advocated for him and now happily backpedal and say ‘this isn’t what they voted for’ regarding the US war with Iran, the continuing of the genocide in Gaza and the use of ICE as a fascistic paramilitary force.
Just disgusting behaviour all around.

Yeah, this is a great look for PP; sit down and have a chat with the guy that once called Canada a ‘communist country’, despite us ranking AHEAD of the US in both the CATO and Fraser Institute’s 2025 Human Freedom Index. PP showing once again that when it comes to being able to read a room, or the mood of a country, he’s as sharp as a sponge.

I don’t see the issue. He made a good case for removing Tarrifs on Canada and how a free trade agreement is good for both nations. Thank you Pierre

Unlike all of the other commenters, I think this is a great thing and I also believe Carney should go on too.
Rogan is an idiot, but he’s really good at conversations and making people get to know politicians in an informal setting unfiltered, something the Canadian media/podcasts is *not* good at, at all.
Edit: and, of course, I’m being downvoted simply for having an opinion that goes against the consensus. Heaven forbid anyone respectfully disagree.
Edit II: that’s it, I’m out. Enjoy your echo chamber.

Im looking forward to seeing PP sat down for a long form casual interview if only for the fact that hes a career politician who has barely ever shown any indication that he isnt a robot, so maybe we’ll see a hint of what hes like IRL.
Im not looking forward to giving Joe a view and listening to him shit on Canada for 3 hours with completely baseless uninformed accusations while a Canadian leader nods from across the table and gives weight to his claims in from of an audience of americans that size.

lol! Sure. Hard to imagine this working out for him though.
We’ve seen him in enough interviews and podcasts. He has no personality to speak of, and what he does have just seems to make him more unpopular the more we see of it.
He won’t be able to stop himself from taking digs at Carney and the Liberals (and possibly Canada generally) and that won’t play well with anyone outside of his base, who will be THRILLED he’s going on Rogan, but were already die hard voters.
I’ll try to listen to it, but honestly I couldn’t make it through the last few Poilievre podcasts. He’s so fucking boring it’s unreal.

The only rationale is that it maybe helps to fend off Jivani from shivving him for the throne at a time where the knives are already out. But this won’t accomplish anything other than making him feel like the King of Maple MAGA, like this is a Kash Patel-style Make a Wish expedition

So he’s yet again pandering to the base whilst alienating moderate Canadians. And this helps Canada how exactly?
And Conservatives wonder why Canadians keep associating the CPC with American politics and their culture war nonsense. I will be happy when he finally moves on from politics, Poillievre has done nothing but lower the bar.

We all knew it was going to happen eventually. When he was galivanting around Europe, he sat on a podcast with Triggernometry which is a far right podcast too.

I can’t stand Joe Rogan anymore and I think Poilievre is a huge dork, but I do hope that there is some possibility that the two of them can attempt some genuine criticisms of Canadian big L Liberalism and highlight hypocrisies that many sneer at. I’ll probably be really disappointed and the whole thing will be ranting about Trans swimmers.
Given the format of his podcast, at a minimum at least we might see what Pierre is like when his CPC test tube baby programming runs out of lines from the length involved.

Okay I am now 100% convinced that the Rogan podcast was the true purpose of his Poilievre’s international tour. I’m pretty sure Rogan only hosts guests in his Texas home.

They still have no idea where to go after Mark Carney,
They still are grasping at straws and this seems more and more like the desperate attempts to keep the conservative party from splitting rather then any attempt at trying to gain back the people they lost to the liberals,

Not surprised whatsoever. Joe Rogans entire shtick for the last five years has been to act as a mouthpiece for the MAGA movement and rehabilitate the images of billionaire tech grifters like Elon Musk & Mark Andreessen, and I say that as someone who used to listen to him pretty regularly before 2019. Even his (former) buddies like Andrew Schultz and Brendan Schaub seem to want increasingly little to do with Rogan and his obnoxious clique that is the Austin “comedy” scene, so it makes sense he’s desperate enough to close ranks with another has-been like Poilievre.
