  • Repetitive

    Been watching Bill for over a few decades, however I feel like the last few years it’s been increasingly difficult. He just repeats the same tropes over and over. Sometimes a guest will bring something up and you can immediately see where the conversation is going. Same reason I can’t stand listening to Joe Rogan retell the same story about that one time he shot an elk. Maybe the guy who hasn’t listened before finds it interesting, but for the rest of us who have been around, we have heard th... more

    Bill Maher is a pro- genocide conservative who has pretended to be a liberal for decades. If he was ever a comedian, that person died long ago.

  • Okay, Boomer

    Bill Maher is the rare comedian who is so thin skinned that he can’t take a joke, which is interesting coming from a guy whose biggest movie role is in “Tomcats”. Maher spends most of his end of the conversation explaining why his point of view is correct and complaining about how everyone who doesn’t agree with him is too woke. In most episodes of this show, he fails to understand that there’s an interesting person sitting across from him and he wastes an opportunity to have an engaging conver... more
