Real Time s23e1 - Looting DEI from my Woke Fire Department feat John Hastings

It's technically still Thursday on the West Coast, so I did in fact get this up on time. FIRST RETURN MAIN FEED GUEST!!! John Hastings is back, and we're looking at not old Maher, but NEW Maher. Real Time is back in the midst of the Los Angeles wild fires, and he's talking to sleepy Larry Wilmore, and the comms director for America's wormiest Dad and a serial rapist about them! Bill Maher doesn't know shit! The comms director doesn't know shit! Larry Wilmore needs a nap! But if you thought two months away would diminish Bill Maher's contempt for WOKE, NO COMMON SENSE BULL SHIT™, well... you honestly probably don't listen to this podcast.

Real Time s2e10 - How Many Polish People Does it Take to Write a Better Comedy Show Than This? feat ...

Due to exhaustion and the psychic toll of having your home city lose the equivalent of 2 1/2 Manhattans to wild fires, I really shit my pants on getting this episode ready and finally just accepted that I'd have to go this road alone and, well, here we are. It ended up being an absolutely brutal decision, because I was forced to endure that smarmy fuck David Frum all on my own. God bless, and I'll spend the next two weeks getting back to a normal release schedule. [Support I Hate Bill Maher on Patreon here] (https://www.patreon.com/IHateBillMaher) Hosted on Acast.

Real Time s2e9 - John McWhorter Can Ling my Guistics feat Gita Jackson

So, I fucked up recording the audio for this episode and thankfully my guest, Gita Jackson (writer, podcast) bailed me out, so the whole episode is thankfully here. It's a good episode! They were a great guest! They talk about their parents' longtime viewership of a guy they don't really agree with, and then we hypothesize about the weird audio issues that this episode of Real Time had. They were WEIRD, man. Also, the panel features an absolute world class asshole. Fuck man. Unbelievably annoying.

Real Time s2e8 - The Privatization of Social Security by the Coward Bill Maher feat James Fritz

Just to get it out of the way, there is some mild mic cable rattling in this episode, I'm going to find a good solution to that so it stops happening. ANYWAY, fresh off of recording hjs album/special, comedian James Fritz was the show's SPECIAL GUEST this week, and it was nice to have an old Politically Incorrect head on the show. We talked about Bill Maher's foray into fiction, his weird homophobia, and also the saving grace that was Martin Short. Also, one of the show's worst ever guests appears once again to torment me, specifically.

Real Time s2e7 - The Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde of Talking about Gay People feat Vera Drew

Writer/actor/director Vera Drew is my guest this week, and wow wow wow she and I may have witnessed the maximum amount of homophobia a person can do while still advocating for the rights of gay people (sort of). Also, we realize there's a common denominator in how people are introduced to Bill Maher, are frustrated by Bill Maher's willingness to let his ideological opponents define the framework of their debates, and bear witness to a moment of shocking religiousness from the host himself.

Real Time s2e6 - Happy Black History Month, Here is Some Condescending Horse Shit feat Lisa Curry

This week, Bill Maher dedicated fully half of his panel discussion time to talking about Black issues; it was as smooth sailing and easy to watch as you'd expect, and comedian and writer Lisa Curry was who had to endure it with me. She's another person with experience writing for these kinds of political comedy shows, let's see if she thinks this is a top notch quality program! Also, if you don't enjoy hearing Bill Maher be moderate-to-highly blase about sexual violence, be warned that there is an incredibly stupid brief discussion about it towards the end of the episode. Also, the episode art is the clearest screencap of Bill Maher's outfit that I could get, but there are the pinstripes on pinstripes if you want to see them.

Real Time s2e5 - The Passion of the Maher (for Smoking Weed, That is) feat LB Hunktears

Oh baby, put away the leftovers and get ready to be ungrateful for 364 days, because Thanksgiving is over and a new episode of I Hate Bill Maher is here! Podcaster/Writer LB Hunktears joined the show to talk about an episode of Real Time that never once threatened to crack the list of "most difficult to watch episodes", even though it opened with an absolutely MYSTIFYING opening "sketch". Also, if anyone cares to, please make a note for me to really keep track of whether or not Bill Maher says "I'm Rick James, bitch" in 2008.

First of all, I forgot my windscreens, so sorry if that sort of noise makes you nuts. Second, long time friend Caitlin Ackerman joined me as we took a look at Real Time season 2, episode 4. I think mostly what happened is that it made her feel really old, and then by the end of the episode she is fully over it. And who could blame her!

Real Time s22 e34 - Can a Man Admit to His Mistakes feat Me

Okay, so I had two possible episode descriptions in mind for this, and here's the first one: This week, I see if Bill Maher is capable of reckoning with the fact that he got the election spectacularly wrong by watching the first Real Time episode post 2024 election, which is season 22, episode 34. I'm not going to spoil anything that happens here, except that I got so mad while recording this that my normally unnoticeable hernia started really bothering me. I'm very deflated by the end, whoops! Here's the second description I had in mind: "I sent Uncle Mac’s thumb-buster and badge over to the Rangers. Put up in a museum. Your daddy ever tell you how Uncle Mac come to his reward? Gunned down on his own porch over in Hudspeth County. Seven or eight of ’em come up to here. Wantin’ this and wantin’ that. Uncle Mac went back in the house and got the shotgun, they was way ahead of him. Shot him in the doorway. Aunt Ella came out and tried to stop the bleedin’. Uncle Mac all the while tryin’ to get that shotgun. They just sat there on their horses watchin’ him die. After a while, one of ’em says somethin in Injun and they all turned and left out. Well, Uncle Mac knew the score even if Aunt Ella didn’t. Shot through the left lung. And that was that. As they say." "When did he die?" "1909." "No, I mean was it right away or in the night or when was it?" "I believe it’s that night. She buried him the next mornin’. Diggin’ in that hard old caliche. What you got ain’t nothin new. This country is hard on people. You can’t stop what’s comin’. Ain’t all waitin’ on you. That’s vanity." Hosted on Acast.

Real Time s2e3 - No, We Don't Talk About it feat Steve Hernandez

Comedian/all the related attributes of doing comedy Steve Hernandez joined the show to talk about Real Time season 2, episode 3, literally one day before the 2024 presidential election, which barely even comes up. Steve talks about his love of blowhards, realizing qualities he once thought were good might actually be not as good, and then finally an episode of Real Time that, if I'm being honest, I really struggled to get through. Sean Astin makes no sense, Larry Miller is... fuck, man. I can't handle him. The most surprising thing about the whole thing was the revelation that Patty Duke is Sean Astin's mom, which I didn't even actually hear until I was pulling clips for the edit.

Real Time s2e2 - Put Down Your iPod and do the Dean Scream feat Jane Harrison

Comedian/long time friend Jane Harrison joined the show talk about Real Time season 2, episode 2. I know this episode is very late, but I have several excuses, all of which vary in quality. What's important is that this episode features the single best panelist the show has had so far, and also God damned David Frum. Fuckin' Canadians, man... This one is a little less focused than normal, right down to multiple people complaining about what an asshole my cat is. Oh, and at one point Jane goes "who's that, he's cute" and she was referring to Tyler Glasnow, not the batting coach like I thought she meant, which in retrospect should've been obvious to me.

BONUS EPISODE PREVIEW - 1985's Sara and What Could've Been feat Ella Dawson

Once upon a time, Bill Maher was an "actor/comedian", as opposed to "breaker of new ways to think about stories/comedian", and his first starring role was 1985's Sara, which also stars Geena Davis and Alfre Woodard (which is insane, by the way.) Writer Ella Dawson returns to talk about the show generally, Bill Maher's performance specifically, and then hypothesize what a world where this show was a hit would have looked like.

Real Time s2e1 - Thank God the File Was Broken feat Francesca Fiorentini

New year, new Maher (but not actually). Season 2 of Real Time with Bill Maher has begun, at least as far as this podcast is concerned, and I was joined by comedian and journalist Francesca Fiorentini. She gives us some insight on doing panels not unlike the ones they do on Real Time, and then we recap an incomplete Real Time that was incomplete due to my incompetence! Honestly, it feels like we're getting off lucky because Al Sharpton and Ron Silver spent A LOT of time just yelling at each other.

21 - Almost Assuredly the Most Controversial Episode to Date feat Adam Christie

Listen, I'm very sorry to any listeners who are infuriated and/or disappointed by this episode, but like, I gotta be honest with this thing. This week, comedian Adam Christie joins me to give an insider's look into the practical reality of writing a weekly topical late night comedy show, and is obstinate with me in the way that only people who've been friends since they were teenagers can be obstinate with one another. But perhaps that feeling is just my own displeasure at having to admit something I never thought I would. A truly shocking episode of... pod... casting.

Watch out ladies, it's... some incredibly misogynist television that we watched! Kath Barbadoro joined the show to watch Real Time season one, episode nineteen with me, and after I found out she was teaching a stand-up comedy class I was annoying about it and really made at her pick at some of the jokes in this episode.
