In an unlikely political crossover, Hunter Biden sat down for a nearly two-hour interview with conservative podcaster Candace Owens.
This interview signals a major turn in their previously hostile relationship.
The crossover was filmed at Owens’ home in Nashville, where the right-wing commentator apologized for years of attacks on the former president’s son, including calling him a “crusher.”
She apologized for her earlier statements about the contents of his infamous laptop, claiming they revealed his father’s addiction problem rather than any corruption.
Owens told Biden, “Really, I’m so sorry.”
The call came at a time when Owens had distanced himself from the Trump administration over its response to the Iran war as well as the Epstein cases. Biden, for his part, has criticized the Democratic leadership ever since he stepped down as the president’s father.
During their conversation, both found some mutually agreed upon grounds, including the unsolved murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
Biden even noted that he respected her persistence in questioning the details of Kirk’s situation.
Owens said, “We still don’t know what happened to Charlie Kirk,” expressing frustration that Trump and his allies believe the official narrative.
Biden added: “Coming from someone who you’ve attacked politically and we disagree on so many things, I listen to you and move on.”
In addition, Biden and Trump share common stories of family members struggling with substance abuse. While Biden has been clean since 2019, he denied that any cocaine found in the White House in 2023 was his.
