During the show, Cavallari was asked for her reaction to Pratt aiming to unseat Los Angeles mayoral incumbent Karen Bass. She responded, “I was shocked, obviously, I think at first like everybody else, but if you actually listen to him, he knows his stuff.”

“I honestly could see him winning. People in California really are excited about him,” she stated. Cohen then added, “By the way, kind of seems like he’s going to win.”

The TV personality further said, “I could see him winning. He’s got a lot of momentum,” Rogan just endorsed him.”

After this, Cohen immediately responded sarcastically, “Oh, Rogan! The great mind of the universe. F*cking Rogan. What an idiot.” 

Cavallari then questioned Cohen about his dislike for Rogan. He replied, “Nothing! I listen to what he says. I made my own opinion.”

Joe Rogan backs Spencer Pratt Los Angeles mayor bid

This came after an episode of 'The Joe Rogan Experience,' where Rogan told Pratt, “Listen, man, I’m voting for you.” However, the 58-year-old podcaster later added that he “can’t vote for you, but I’m rooting for you. I mean, if I lived in Los Angeles, no question whatsoever, I would vote for you."



Rogan is now reportedly based in Texas after leaving California in 2020.

Following the podcast, Pratt took to Facebook, where he posted a photo of himself with Rogan.

He captioned it as “An honor being on with the GOAT, @joerogan . My goal is to make LA so awesome, we can win him back from Texas.”

Spencer Pratt enters politics after Palisades fires

Earlier, the 42-year-old TV personality revealed why he chose to enter politics.

On his website, he writes, “I’m not a politician. I’m a husband and father who watched my home burn because the system failed us. We don’t need more government programs. We need common sense, accountability, and a Mayor that shows up for everyone.”

“Following the devastating 2025 Palisades fires that destroyed his family home, Spencer transitioned from a private entrepreneur to a formidable civic force,” the site adds.
