Donald Trump to Appear on Michael Cohen's Podcast

President Donald Trump is scheduled to record an interview on Thursday with Michael Cohen, his former personal lawyer, who has since become a public critic and a key witness in the hush money trial that resulted in Trump's conviction on 34 felony counts. The interview is set to air later on Thursday, according to a White House official who requested anonymity. Cohen confirmed the interview and stated that it will be featured on a radio show he hosts, with additional excerpts available on his Sunday WABC show, which is also released as a podcast. This interview signifies a notable change in the relationship between Trump and Cohen, which has been strained since 2018 when Cohen's legal troubles began. The two reportedly had their first contact in years during a meeting at Trump's golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, in the summer of 2025. Cohen has expressed regret for his past actions on behalf of Trump, stating, 'I regret doing things for him that I should not have.' During the trial, Cohen faced cross-examination from Todd Blanche, Trump's former defense lawyer, who is now the attorney general. Trump previously criticized Cohen on social media, advising against hiring him as a lawyer.
