Overview
- Michael Cohen confirmed to multiple outlets that President Trump is set to record an interview on Cohen’s radio show and podcast, with Cohen saying the call will be recorded Thursday morning and aired in parts that evening and Sunday.
- The booking was first reported by MS NOW and is described as a developing item because a senior White House official told at least one outlet the president had not yet recorded the interview as of Wednesday afternoon.
- The conversation marks a striking public thaw between the two men after years of legal fights, public attacks and Cohen’s role as a star witness whose testimony contributed to Trump’s 34-count conviction in New York.
- The program will air on WABC (770 AM) and as a podcast on Cohen’s platform, a placement approved by station owner John Catsimatidis and reflecting both men’s use of nontraditional media for political messaging.
- Beyond the personal reconciliation, the appearance could shift public debate and legal arguments by highlighting Cohen’s recent claims that he felt pressured to testify and giving both sides material to shape perceptions of credibility and pending appeals.
