What is funny is that I am a fairly moderate to middle conservative and I love Bill Maher. Yes he makes more fun of the right, of which I am part of, but he also makes fun of the ludicrous nature of the left.

How great is Bill Maher. Standup guy.

I like Bill’s bluntness and sarcasm. Sometimes I disagree with his comments or my feathers get “ruffled” but I can handle it. I don’t want everyone to agree with me.

Thats a really great interview, Bill is very honest, also I very much like the ending, Bill was so genuinely flattered and it was a heartfelt sincere moment, you can see how touched Bill really is by the sweet words... ❤ New Orleans

Thank you!!! I see things like this and it helps to reassure that the tide is turning. Bill is right, most people do want to talk to the other side. Disliking people you’ve never met is silly. Loving people despite their differences, is a message that is needed more than ever. People seeing more messages like this, hopefully help to see past each others ideals. Not everyone is the same and that is ok. It’s always been one of the beautiful aspects of getting along with one another. It takes an actual diversity of ideas to make the world go round.

Bill mentioned "heartfelt" in his description of Elex's praise, because he had that idea come up in the discussion he had with Jerry Seinfeld the day before, and it was somewhat of a new concept for Bill in the way it was presented, so he remembered it and used it in his thank you and appreciation here.

He has terrific wry humor!!!!

Very nicely done Elex!

@@mariareyes7913 It's not fair to let Republicans talk?? That's ridiculous. I don't like the GOP either, but not letting the other side talk is flat out wrong if you believe in free speech. Bill is an old school liberal who has voted for democrats 99% of the time, the only time he voted for a Republican President was Bob Dole but that was a sentimental vote because Dole was the last candidate of the "greatest generation". He has rightfully called out the failures of the democrat party because he, like a lot of people, want them to be better! He is more than fair to liberals and independents and usually ends up getting into the most heated arguments with Republicans.

Your trans friend just admitted to not wanting the right to have a voice. I have a lot of disagreements with the right (and the left😂), but when you don't want them to have a voice, you are one step from losing their own.

He’s mostly correct on many issues.. sometimes he exceeds boundaries.

This interview made me feel so alive! I've never seen this level of inthusiasm from an interviewer. Also, Mr. Mahr's responses were so in depth and sensible that I felt like I could listen to him forever! Thank you!!!

@@rtflone The how would be up to legislators. The aim - or part of it - would ideally be to shake the EC loose of the money that controls it and to let the Popular Vote decide general elections instead allowing a faction to decide them - too often overriding the nationwide majority of voters. It's the reason we get stuck with deficient idiots like George W. Bush and Trump. For that matter, the we as the collective representatives of the electorate would be able to get things done, like common sense gun control, which is invariably impeded by corportions, the Washington Lobby, and so many politicians in their pockets. In other words, we not only need to save what we have of our democracy, we need to move the system to a purer democracy. It can't be done now, of course. As it is, we'll be lucky if we can prevent an oligarchy from completely taking hold.

I am so jealous of Bill Maher. He gets to talk with the most amazing people who can say what's on their minds in a safe place. It's so good to have someone, "in this news as entertainment world" who speaks the truth. Hay! Bill, why don't you point out the fact that the abortion issue is being desided by old men, who can't participate in the fun part of making babies any more. The way I see things, you can't really call yourself a man untill you've past a kidney stone. When this happens to a man it's the closest we ever come to experiencing what our mothers endured bring us into the world. I never mis your show, it really makes Fridays the best day of the week. Keep up the good work!

Elex Michaelson is da bomb! Handsome lad!

I enjoy watching Bill Maher's show. I do, however, disagree with his stance that pot is an innocuous, fun vice. Anyone that I remember from high school that were pot heads all ended up messed up in adulthood. Heavy pot use by teens translates into higher mental illness issues and increased number of incidences of schizophrenia. Just my opinion and anecdotal observation in life. Bill Maher's show is the last vestige of relatively objective journalism.

Love the honesty…

First off, let me say I love Bill Maher but we are listening to one side of the story. If Bill truly wanted to be respected in the field of journalism by more than “yes men” and “head nodders” he would have TRUE REPRESENTATION of the college student protesters on his show. If they’re quacks, we’ll see that, but you can’t hog the mic and spew your propaganda without the public hearing a single voice from the other side. Make it happen Bill. Let the public decide. Have them on your show and let us decide instead of you telling us what they’re saying.

This is like a bad movie about a superstar Hollywood leading man talking about how the world has been dying for him to put all his famous thoughts into a book for them. How does his head fit in that room should be his new book title. Did the world change or did you? Seriously that's your deep thought?

I love how Bill is evolving into the world of Real Reality vs Social Media Reality. I have one suggestion that a fellow stoner has to keep his evolving going in the right direction. In the movie with Brad Pitt, World War Z, there is a seen called the ‘tenth’ man theory. It basically says that if everyone is reporting on the same story, the same way with the same wording and the same opinion, it is the responsibility of the tenth man to disagree and dispute everything that is being said. To me, that is where Bill should his role in the future. Bill, the tenth man.

Not everyone lives there.

Maher needs to look at the Fulton County elections investigation

I liked his rule although failed to obey it myself

Normies ❤ love it ! Normies parades 😅😅😅😅😅😅

Nice location, would definitely pay a visit if it wasn’t for the for me awful smell of weed.

Stoners running a pot store??? There goes the profit margin.

I love bill Maher , great interviewer and interview. However I don’t appreciate his shameless bias towards Israel when it comes to the conflict. There is way more to the situation that he conveniently cheery picks. And I say this person of paternal Jewish lineage. That said, dude has been a favorite since Politically Incorrect.

His unwavering support for Israel ruins the validity of his views

Yawn. This is a thin promo…

Love his humor but he's on the wrong side of History regarding Gaza. I couldn't even watch when Netanyahu was on his show. As smart as bill is he should know better than to equate support for the Palestinians as support for Hamas. Come on Bill you can do better

No he doesn't. He bores me.

Let's go trump

Used to like Real Time but now it became a joke. Facts are filtered according to his bias, prejudice or their comedic value. It's no longer reliable. Even if, generously, you assess his factual accuracy to 50%, how you are going to find out which statements are which besides doing the research yourself? That defeats the whole point of tuning in to get 'Real'.

Greedy Bill Maher will say anything for ratings. Keep both Maga & liberals happy😂😂😂

Love Maher but: Trump 2024!😉

Bill Maher is such a silly liberal.

Bill has changed. The issue with being woke, he categorizes people which is the first form of prejudice
