Tucker Carlson has aired eight episodes of ‘Tucker on Twitter’ since his departure from Fox News.
However, the former primetime political commentator hasn’t brought a guest onto his Twitter show.
Is that about to change?
There is much speculation that a controversial figure could soon be an interview guest on Tucker Carlson’s show.
The individual is Andrew Tate.
Tate posted a picture Saturday of himself with Carlson saying “GM.”

“Tate’s views have been described as extreme misogyny by domestic abuse charities, capable of radicalising men and boys to commit harm offline,” The Guardian wrote.
Despite Tate’s comments drawing plenty of rage and controversy, he’s become a TikTok star.
From The Guardian:
But the 35-year-old is not a fringe personality lurking in an obscure corner of the dark web. Instead, he is one of the most famous figures on TikTok, where videos of him have been watched 11.6 billion times.
Styled as a self-help guru, offering his mostly male fans a recipe for making money, pulling girls and “escaping the matrix”, Tate has gone in a matter of months from near obscurity to one of the most talked about people in the world. In July, there were more Google searches for his name than for Donald Trump or Kim Kardashian.
His rapid surge to fame was not by chance. Evidence obtained by the Observer shows that followers of Tate are being told to flood social media with videos of him, choosing the most controversial clips in order to achieve maximum views and engagement.
The coordinated effort, involving thousands of members of Tate’s private online academy Hustler’s University and a network of copycat accounts on TikTok, has been described by experts as a “blatant attempt to manipulate the algorithm” and artificially boost his content. In less than three months, the strategy has earned him a huge following online and potentially made him millions of pounds, with 127,000 members now paying the £39 a month to join Hustler’s University community, many of them men and boys from the UK and US.
As WLTReport noted, Tate was charged in Romania with “rape, human trafficking, and forming an organized crime group to sexually exploit women.”

Tate has maintained his innocence and denied all charges.
"Im sure this case has absolutely nothing to do with stealing my wealth," Tate said.

BBC reported:
Controversial influencer Andrew Tate has been charged in Romania with rape, human trafficking and forming an organised crime group to sexually exploit women.
His brother Tristan and two associates have also been charged. All have denied the allegations.
The Tate brothers were first arrested at their Bucharest home in December.
In March, they were moved from custody to house arrest following a ruling by a Romanian judge.
The indictment deposited with the Bucharest court says that the four defendants formed an organised criminal group in 2021 to commit human trafficking in Romania, but also in other countries including the US and the UK.
ADVERTISEMENTIt names seven alleged victims who it says were recruited by the Tate brothers through false promises of love and marriage.
Andrew Tate has been charged with raping one of the victims, while his brother has been charged with instigating others to violence.
Tucker Carlson has not indicated when a potential interview with Andrew Tate would come to Twitter.
But a Tucker-Tate sit-down will likely generate tens of millions of views on the platform.
