Joshua Citarella notes that despite eight years of social media-focused election cycles, "we still do not have one Rogan-style interview of a prominent Democratic candidate." This market resolves YES if any declared Democratic presidential candidate for the 2028 election appears as a guest on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast before April 10, 2025.
For resolution purposes, a "major" candidate is defined as someone who has formally announced their candidacy for the Democratic presidential nomination and is polling at 5% or higher in at least two national polls.
Resolution source: The Joe Rogan Experience on Spotify
Update 2025-03-13 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): Candidacy and Polling Timing Clarification
Requirement Deadline: The formal declaration of candidacy and polling at or above 5% in at least two national polls must be achieved by April 10, 2025.
Timing Relative to Podcast Appearance: These requirements do not need to occur before the candidate's appearance on the podcast.
1,000@creator do the requirements of declaring ones candidacy, and two polls > 5%, have to be before the appearance, or just any time before April 10?
What if they declare their candidacy on the podcast?
@DanielTilkin The requirements of declaring candidacy and polling >5% need to be met before April 10, 2025. They don’t necessarily have to be before the podcast appearance itself. If a candidate declares their candidacy on the podcast, as long as the polling shows >5% before the April 10 deadline, the conditions would be met. Hope that clears it up
@meineusername I see that. I don't think anyone will have formally announced their candidacy for the 2028 election in the next month. If there are no valid candidates at the close date, will this resolve No?
@wasabipesto That is correct! Thanks for the question! And patience :) - just starting to "create questions" with AI's help - need to pay more attention to details :)
