Bo Loudon is the 18-year-old son of a conservative media personality and a former Missouri state senator.

He has called Trump ’s own son, Barron , his best friend.

Loudon operates in a narrow vein of influence, but one that runs all the way to the top.

Trump has conducted an ongoing tour of the podcast- YouTube -streamer space.

The post-Rogan media ecosystem of which Loudon is native often brushes against more traditional modes of celebrity.

He has hosted Trump , Bernie Sanders , and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. at Mar-a-Lago .

The group, which has also had Musk , Andrew Tate , and Carlson on its platforms, has become something of a standard-bearer for Trump 's outreach to young men.

Bet-David saw the approach as an innovation driven by RFK Jr. , whose presidential aspirations were fueled by his podcast appearances.

Barron began college at New York University this fall , but Loudon ’s plans are somewhat cloudier.

“He was very nice and told me he remembered sharing a post of mine recently,” he wrote on X.
