I Hate Bill Maher

ANNOUNCEMENT: The show comes out on Thursdays now, and Patreon episodes come out on... the weekend. At some point. God willing. I just need the extra day for both scheduling and editing reasons.You know, sometimes you have your podcast where you make fun of a guy you hate, which means experiencing a lot of that person you hate, and you're sure this has absolutely poisoned your brain with irony beyond the scope of what any other person's brain could handle, and then you have two professionally online Zoomers on the show and realize you actually know nothing of irony poisoning.Wow, look at that, I put a little work into the episode description this week! Pretty impressive, right? Anyway, this week Spencer Barrows and Liv Agar joined the podcast, and it took every bit of strength in my 41 year old body to not constantly ask them "hey, this isn't cringe what I'm doing, right? I'm not being CHEUGY????" They make the judgement free question zone look absolutely pathetic, and then we talk about Real Time season 24, episode 30, which is the rare modern Real Time episode where Bill Maher was NOT the worst person on the panel. Does that mean he was well behaved, perhaps even normal? Of course not, don't be a damned fool.00:00 - intro/bill maher news2:29 - question portion16:25 - real time recap1:09:46 - new rules1:25:44 - psychic damage + plugs + final question-----Check out Super Struture and TGOFVListen to QAA then watch Liv's Twitch and Youtube channels-----Support I Hate Bill Maher on PatreonFollow the show on Instagram for EXCLUSIVE CONTENT (sometimes I post pictures of him where he looks like shit) and also announcements if the show's going to be late, or something Hosted on Acast.

Complicatedly Named Podcast Haver Tom Harrison is this week's guest, for yet another nonsensical episode of Real Time that is less "cutting edge look at current events" and more "grating conversation with your worst Aunt & Uncle who post way too much". I'll be honest: this week I'm really struggling to write the description for this episode. I guess I could say "specifically they talk about this, this, and this", but I don't know, who cares? And I don't want to be like "we make some great jokes, such as" because if you've downloaded this you're almost assuredly going to listen to it, so why spoil the jokes? Really I'm just experiencing that thing where I finally bought something I had been thinking about buying for months, waited as the pants got hemmed, then finally brought it home, tied it on, and realized it's not going to solve any of my problems. It's a nice unstructured suit, and the parts can be worn as separates, but but it's also a little hot. I don't know, did I just simply get sucked in by the excellent marketing of those men's heritage clothing brands that seem like they were worn by fur trappers but in actuality they were started in Venice Beach a decade ago (I'm talking about Buck Mason). Also, Los Angeles is about to get hit by it's standard October Surprise (an insane October heatwave) and this one's going to be fucking B-A-D bro.Tom was a fun guest.Listen to Anime Sickos and Did Dat Dude Describe DestroyerSupport I Hate Bill Maher on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Okay, well, this one's REAL LATE but you know what? It was worth it, because this week I welcomed returning guest Gita Jackson, who injects more fashion talk into the episode than has ever happened before? This Real Time has annoying guest after annoying guest, from a credulous AI moron, to a center right Dem, to one of modern day's most racist guys. And then there's Bill Maher, who's kind of all three of those! Got. His. Fucking. Ass.Plus, hey, you're not going to believe it but this episode also has an insanely nasty and vicious final New Rule. Go figure! Also, Bill Maher talks about how he doesn't care if AI kills us all so many times that I think he might be suicidal. ALSO I got the comic wrong, the computer says "I am alive".Subscribe to and then read AftermathSupport I Hate Bill Maher on Patreon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Oh, did you enjoy your week off from modern day Bill Maher? Well whether or not you did, it's back, so you better be ready for one of the most IN-FUCKIN-SCRUTABLE final New Rules he's ever done. I'm sure I have typed that before, but I swear to GOD bro, I have never meant it more. And you know who can back me up on this? Podcaster and literal teacher of religious history John Brooks. That's right, no yahoo comedian this week. AN EXPERT (I'm remembering last week I had a labor journalist, so I don't really know how this is different, but this is the angle I decided to take with the episode description, which I always hate writing, so I refuse to come up with a new one.) There's an extremely funny conversation about AI in this episode that includes an all time absurd quote from Bill Maher.Also this episode is late because my wife is out of town for a wedding, so I am parenting solo this weekend. That's right, if you had a problem with it being late, you were attacking a single father. I bet you feel pretty shitty now, don't you?!Listen to 1999 and Pod Only KnowsSupport I Hate Bill Maher on Patreon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
