Comedian and podcaster Andrew Schulz has accused Vice President Kamala Harris’s team of outright lying about attempts to book him for his popular Flagrant podcast during the 2024 campaign. He said he, along with surrogates Charlamagne Tha God and Mark Cuban, reached out multiple times, but Harris’s campaign later denied any contact occurred.
Schulz expressed that the denial felt like a personal attack, as if his communications never existed. He shared this claim on The Interview podcast by The New York Times, following prior rejections from other Democrats who labeled his podcast team as “podcast bros” harshly.
Despite these barriers, Schulz has since interviewed prominent figures including Pete Buttigieg and Bernie Sanders. He also revealed that he supported Donald Trump in 2024, believing the mainstream Democratic campaign disregarded common voters.
The dispute sheds light on tensions between rising media personalities and political campaigns during election cycles, raising questions about communication breakdowns and narrative control.
