Is Dennis Miller a sex symbol? Do you reach a certain age and then start becoming a teen again? Are you old if you remember someone's Dad putting cards into a satellite box? None of those questions are pressing, but they do get asked during this episode of I Hate Bill Maher, featuring comedian and writer Meg Mackay! Lately, I feel like the thing that's been breaking brains has been the horrible guests booked on Real Time, but this week we've got some real old fashioned, traditional Maher induced rage. Man, what a piece of shit this guy is and was. Fuck! Anyway, Meg was great, I love to open each season of the show with a foreign national.

Fuck man, I knew I saw Meg's show "Don't Even" streaming somewhere, and not just somewhere, but on Tubi TV, baby.

Dude, you can just Google "Andrew Sullivan racist" and you'll get a bunch of people talking about it, I don't need to keep doing it.

It's the season 2 finale of Real Time with Bill Maher, and a bad time was had by both myself and my guest, Comedian/Podcaster/Screenwriting EXPERT Caitlin Durante.This episode is actually pretty wild: Republicans have won, so you know that means they have to be big crybabies about it. Andrew Sullivan won't shut up, Alan Simpson goes sicko mode, and the previously unknown Noam Chomsky makes an appearance.

Lesbo lesbo lesbo! Can you even think of something funnier than just the IDEA of a lesbian?! Hahaha FUCKIN' HILARIOUS, RIGHT!??!!?

Comedian and PODCASTER (I capitalized it because he's got a few of them) Matt Lieb joins the podcast this week, and boy oh boy, this was a real up and down episode. The panel is actually kind of interesting, because while it's three liberals, it's three different kinds of liberals (including one guy who doesn't understand that he's a liberal, because he applies "conservative" way too broadly beyond a strictly political meaning), and they end up having an actual, real argument about electoral politics. Plus, the realization that conversations about the Democrats twenty years ago were they same as they are today hits Matt like a God damned Orbital Railcannon Strike (right right down left right up).

To celebrate the one year anniversary of I Hate Bill Maher my microphone has started making a clicking noise on a random assortment of consonants. Thanks so much for listening, here's to another year.

It's safe to pull your dicks and asses out, boys, we've got an all male panel! Comedian/writer Josh Gondelman is this week's guest, and we watched an absolutely BRUTAL interview. Like, there's lots in the episode aside from that, but I cannot stop thinking about this fucking interview Bill Maher did. God, he's the fucking worst.

Dude, my cats were going NUTS during the first half of the recording. It simply was not dinner time, you fucks!!! Filmmaker and organizer CARON CLANCEY joined the show this week, and came in a very close second for "person on this specific episode who took the most notes on Real Time season 2, episode 20". We talked about trying to wrap your head around just what this guy's purpose is, his contempt for the gay people he supports, and how much he contributes to an intellectually satisfying panel conversation. Okay, uh... bye.

Come on man, there HAS TO HAVE BEEN SOMETHING ELSE TO TALK ABOUT BESIDES THE FUCKING ELECTION! Well, there actually was, but unfortunately it was the most 2005 atheist shit of all time. I hunger for new content to complain about, please. Comedian Kate Willett joined me on the show; we talked more than usual about whether or not a lot of this material was transgressive at the time, how Bill Maher comes off then versus now, and just how wretched it was existing in the culture in 2004. Fuck man, all this and John Kerry just fucking loses clean.
