The influence of a corrupted mainstream media that grows more despised and distrusted by the day was already on the ropes and Joe Rogan’s sit-down with Donald J. Trump could be the knockout punch.

On Friday, the highly anticipated interview between the former president and the most popular podcaster on the planet came to fruition as their 3-hour conversation blew up on social media and alternative media platforms with more than 19 million viewers in the first 24 hours alone.

The Trump-Rogan interview “signifies the end of legacy media” in the opinion of another podcaster, Shawn Ryan who shoveled dirt on the media coffin in a video that the former Navy SEAL posted to X on Saturday.

“What a day, man, what a day,” he began in the video recorded in a fall-like outdoor setting. “Last night, that interview between Trump and Rogan, it just means so much more than, than, than just a presidential candidate being on the number one podcast in the world that, that signifies the end of legacy media.”

They can’t pull that off, and they have lied to us for so long and shoved agenda after agenda and lie after lie and propaganda down our throats since before I was even born, and nobody seemed to be paying attention until the last couple of years and you know, just what a historic moment,” he continues.

“And I’ll tell you another thing that, that signifies is all these politicians that hide behind 30-second news bites and, and get away with all this sh*t that they’ve been getting away with, that sh*t is done,” Ryan stated.

“A new rule was written last night and that is if you want to be successful in politics, you’re gonna have to have a conversation, a long-form unscripted conversation with the people that you intend to serve the days of us serving you and you getting away with all that sh*t that’s f**king over,” he added.

“And what a win for America, man, the downfall of the propaganda legacy media. It’s been a long time coming,” he said, predicting that mainstream media is on its last legs.

“It will be 100 percent completely dead with the baby boomer generation,” Ryan concluded. “The only ones left watching that sh*t. F**king amazing.”

Trump has wisely avoided the crooked media this time around, especially after the rigged ABC News debate where he was repeatedly “fact-checked” by moderator David Muir who declined to call out Kamala Harris who was allowed to lie repeatedly.

Instead, he has focused nearly exclusively on rallies and podcasts which was already a winning formula before he engaged with Rogan in one of the long-form extended interviews that he’s famous for, becoming one of the most influential new media figures in America.

It’s hard to see Harris getting through 3 hours with Rogan and she has so-far refused to agree to an interview with no limitations although her supporters are now begging for her to follow Trump on “The Joe Rogan Experience” as desperation mounts heading into the final week before the most consequential election in U.S. history.
