Unfortunately Rogan has attracted more of a right wing audience. It started with his criticisms of Hillary Clinton and the "safe "spaces". I don't think you have to be right wing be to see the problem she those issue. Since YouTube revenues are all about views, many of his recent guests have been leaning right. He was also using the "intellectual dark media" label to his benefit, so he invited most of that group to his show.
That being said, he consistently brings on guests who are pro-evolution, pro-recreational drug use, pro-gun control, etc.. and some are quite far left. Upcoming guests include Elon Musk, Chris Hatfield, and several left wing comedians. I don't think it's fair to say that his show doesn't give prominent left wing figures a chance.
