I Hate Bill Maher Will Weldon

Jesus Christ, more fucking Ann Coulter! Filmmaker/Musician/Podcaster Lola Blanc is on the show this week, and we are talking about Real Time Season 1, Episode 10. My expectations for what Horror auteur Clive Barker would be like on one of these shows is shattered, the point of having Ann Coulter on these things is debated, plus we witness perhaps the show's worst explained segment yet, as well as a baffling and disgusting analogy that could only come from the mind of a weird, horny old stand-up comedian (so, like 35% of them).
Here are all of Lola's links, I trust your ability to scroll through them and find what you want.

Comedian/Writer/Big Dog Haver Andrew Orvedahl is here this week to talk Real Time season one, episode nine. He loved it! No, I'm kidding, it was fucking dreadful. Andrew revealed which camp his past with Maher falls into: "used to be a fan", or "encountered him here and there during my lifetime". Then we got to the episode and its especially bad panel, though panelist Ann Coulter did force us to consider the age old question "Who whines about the whiners?" (roughly translated from the Latin phrase, "Quis queritur de eo qui queritur?")
Listen to Andrew's albums here, and maybe someday Those Who Can't will be f*****g streaming somewhere again. Who knows, f*****g Zaslav wants even more consolidation in the entertainment industry.

Saddam('s statue) has fallen, and comedian/lawyer/podcaster Charles Star is here to remember what it was like through the prism of Real Time Season one, episode eight. Bill wonders why we liberals can't just put away our Bush hatred and be happy that the war is going so well, the rhetorical Molotov cocktail that is weapons of mass destruction is finally denounced, and we describe one of the most sincerely infuriating interviews we've ever seen.

I recorded an episode in-person for the first time ever, and the audio quality is uhhhhhhhhh mixed, we'll say. But hey, when you've got a guest this good, a little diminished audio is worth the trouble. Comedian, Actor, Whole-ass show creator Lindsay Mullan joins us this week, and we spend a lot of time talking about whether or not it's worth it to focus your creative efforts on hating another, much more famous person, and the possible consequences of attaching yourself to someone you don't even like. Then, a quicker than usual Real Time recap but don't worry, there's still a ton of dog shit in there. Aaron McGruder probably takes the title of Best Panel Guest from Connie Rice, for the record.

Comedian/Writer/Long time close fiend (intentional) Eliza Skinner joins the show to talk about a parent's love (for Maher). We also explore whether or not Bill Maher likes... anything, really??? I'll be honest, I'm insanely exhausted trying to write this description right now and I just truly have no mental energy to do anything. That's why this episode was so late, I had a lot to get done. Okay?! F**k!!!!!Anyway, Eliza's great, very funny. Goodnight!

CONTENT WARNING: Roman Polanski comes up in the context of his horrible crimes, and while we don't mention the specifics, we do mention Bill Maher mentioning the specifics.
Finally, I get another absolute pervert for Bill Maher on here. Comedian John Hastings joins me to talk about his theory on modern grift culture's role in Real Time's resurgence, the complete and total absence of effort throughout Bill Maher's entire career, and a tonally bizarre episode of Real Time that gets completely f****d up by an absurdly inappropriate throwaway joke. But on the upside, it's the least amount of sexism from Bill so far. So, I don't know, that's good...?

P.S. I told you I would sound better and it would be on time this week. Each of you owes me twenty dollars.
