Rudy Giuliani is considering launching a podcast to give his analysis on the public impeachment hearings that will begin later this week.
President Trump’s personal lawyer was overheard discussing his plans at a restaurant, Sant Ambroeus, in New York City on Saturday, according to audio given to CNN.
Giuliani and an unidentified woman discussed possible dates for the recording and releasing the podcast episodes, a logo, and how to upload the episodes to iTunes and other platforms. Giuliani said he envisioned the podcast would be four or five episodes “to analyze the impeachment in every aspect.”
The president’s lawyer has been a central figure in the impeachment investigation with several witnesses testifying that Giuliani sought to pressure Ukrainian officials to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and a conspiracy theory about the 2016 election. Giuliani has defended his actions as part of his legal defense of the president.
Federal prosecutors in New York are also investigating Giuliani’s business dealings with Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, two of his associates who were indicted in October on campaign finance charges.
Giuliani has cut back on his media appearances since the indictments.
“Many Americans want to hear directly from Rudy Giuliani,” Christianné Allen, a spokeswoman for Giuliani, said. “He is considering several options, in consultation with Jay Sekulow and the legal team, regarding the best way to move forward. As of now, they have not decided on the strategy but are getting very close.”
