Michelle Obama’s latest venture has proven to become a humiliating failure after her brand new podcast failed to make a dent in the charts.
The podcast, which features Michelle and her brother, Craig Robinson, interviewing an array of famous faces, was expected to become a hit straight out the gate due.
However, sadly for Michelle, her launch has failed to make an impact, with the first two episodes ranking up just 62,000 viewers in the first 24 hours they were made available to stream on YouTube.
The numbers on Spotify also failed to hit any highs, with recent statistics placing it as the 34th most listened to show on the platform, according to the streamer’s charts.
IMO released two episodes initially, the first titled, You Should Start a Podcast with Your Sibling. The second episode featured executive producer and actress Issa Rae, and was titled, Some Friendships Need to Go.
The duo also have episodes featuring Hollywood stars such as Seth Rogen and his wife Lauren, psychology professor Dr. Laurie Santos, Keke Palmer, and podcaster Jay Shetty.
“This is extremely embarrassing,” commented one critic as the numbers were reported on X.
Another remarked: “Who was asking for a podcast from Michelle Obama though?”
The numbers mark a disappointment for Democrats in the US who are scrambling to find a “Joe Rogan of the left” after the controversial podcaster helped get Donald Trump elected due his popularity with young male voters.
Rogan is currently the most listened to podcaster in the world, clocking in at 39.9 million followers.

She should try radio.
She has a face for radio.
I told Michael how to fix this.
He needs to come out of the closet on the podcast!
“humiliating failure” Her/it/they/bitches middle name. Cancel it and you’re raaaaaciist!!!
Half the viewership numbers are fake.
Few want to listen to her complaining about how bad life is as she chows down on another wagyu.
What a horrid creature, inside and out.
Two brothers do a show. How quaint.
I always thought that the popularity of the First Wookie was over stated. It was like that it was used a threat. We’re going to sic the First Wookie on you! I don’t think anyone likes her especially Obama.
Is Hooters hiring?
Did Michael forget his hormone shots in that picture?
To quote Jerry Seinfeld, “Must miss!”
If she cuts ✂️ herself off from Barack, she’ll die on the vine. She’ll be the villainess.
“The podcast...was expected to become a hit straight out the gate...”
Of course it was! After all, she(?) is an international fashion icon and an acknowledged intellectual titan.
Oh, I know. She can read a list of all of the people who are on the Epstein Island passenger list, as soon as Pam Bondi releases that list. That should attract a crowd.
Told you guys ... (at FR)
The Sasquatch is too divisive
to be elected to ANYTHING
outside of a stupid liberal city
IT’S COMING RIGHT FOR US!!!
I remember when the Predator
took out Apollo Creed 🤪 and
Bill Duke
And we never got to thank him
for Jesse Ventura before
the nuclear weapon went off...
That’s because we are all racists.
