Washington (CNN) Former White House press secretary Sarah Sanders joined Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue as the first guest on his new podcast, "The Sonnyside of the Farm."

Sanders and Perdue sat down at Doe's Eat Place in Little Rock, Arkansas, a restaurant that Perdue said is "sort of a famous venue for Arkansas politicians and political events."

Sanders' appearance may fuel further speculation about a gubernatorial run, which President Donald Trump floated in a tweet when she stepped down in June. About two months later, Sanders unveiled a campaign-style website , which calls her a "trusted confidante of the President."

"I think the easiest and and simplest way to describe the President is he's just so fun to be around and somebody who really loves the country, and you see that in everything he does," she said in the podcast interview, which was released on Friday.
