Axios provided details:

• The live show will air twice per week beginning the week of January 23rd, with the possibility of expanding its cadence in the future.
• Trump Jr. joined Rumble in early 2021. He has since amassed over 1 million subscribers, giving him one of the platform’s largest followings.
• Like his current Rumble videos, the podcast will continue to mostly feature Trump Jr.’s riffs on news of the day. He also plans to bring on guests for interviews.

“While other Big Tech companies are focused on censoring dissent, Rumble is building a platform that welcomes it, which is why so many content creators — all over the political spectrum — are now joining them,” Trump Jr. said in a statement.

The Post Millennial added:

Rumble, based in Toronto, Ont., has made a splash in the streaming space since going public in December 2021, and has become a rival to the censorious YouTube platform. Rumble has about 71 million active users around the world, with 57 million of those based in Canada and the US.

“Due to the live nature of Don’s podcast and others like it on our platform, I view our podcasts as something that won’t just compete with other podcasting networks,” Rumble CEO Chris Pavlovski said, “but will also compete with traditional linear television in the longterm.”

Trump Jr. joins Russell Brand, who streams “Stay Free with Russell Brand” exclusively on the platform, along with shows from Glenn Greenwald, and UFC President Dana White.
