(NewsNation) — Vice President JD Vance will fill Charlie Kirk’s now-vacant podcast seat Monday for an episode of the political activist’s eponymous show.
“Tomorrow, I will have the honor of hosting the Charlie Kirk Show. Please join me as I pay tribute to my friend,” Vance wrote on social media Sunday night.
Monday’s episode of “The Charlie Kirk Show,” a popular conservative-leaning podcast, is expected to air at noon EDT on Rumble.

It’s unclear where the episode will be recorded, but Vance included a photo of his empty office chair with a microphone nearby.
Kirk, co-founder of Turning Point USA, started the podcast in October 2020, and the last episode he hosted aired the day before he was killed during an event at Utah Valley University last week.
As of Monday, the podcast was ranked No. 1 on Apple and No. 26 on Spotify.
On Thursday, Vance and second lady Usha Vance flew to Utah to return Kirk’s casket to Phoenix on Air Force Two.
