- Donna B crushed it
I think Donna missed her calling. She had great one liners throughout the podcast. Next job, comedian. Bill, I enjoy your viewpoints 3/4 of the time. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.Looking forward to 2026 and catching you on the airwaves

Canadaa month ago - Bomb Cringe Fest
Old, irrelevant Zionist clawing for relevancy, by oaying an audience to even show up. I like that Bill, in merely existing, makes the strongest case for finally taking the car keys away from Boomers. My parents said he used to be funny, but they’re a little off too.

Zionist who excuses the war crimes committed against Gaza. Does Bill work for AIPEC now? I’m unplugging - Maher is now a Trump apologist who plays it safe with the GOP.
Apple Podcasts1IslandGoat50United States2 months ago A right winger, a bigot and an extreme nationalist pretending to be a leftist. Bo wonder he is anti-funny. If you've also wondered "what's it like to be a 20-something girl" or likes to tell grossly inappropriate jokes to teenagers and minors - Bill Maher is your guy!
Podcast Addict13 months agoAtomsk12- NYC mayor
Some help with pronunciation:
Mamdami is pronounced as follows: mom (like your mother) don (like Donald) eee
We have a police department that’s corrupt with cops selling Promotions for $25,000. We are not thrilled.
Mamdani is not a socialist. Even if he wanted to, he is not in a position to. Take ownership of the means of production. Trump has done that with two different corporations & working on a third ~ TikTok
