Shannon Elizabeth | Club Random with Bill Maher

Bill Maher reunites with his former Tomcats co-star Shannon Elizabeth for a revealing conversation about fame, fantasy, and the unexpected path her life took after American Pie. Shannon explains why she joined OnlyFans, where she draws the line, and why Bill still can’t quite understand the appeal of an online fantasy. The conversation turns personal as Shannon shares why she left Hollywood for South Africa and devoted her life to animal conservation—including the heartbreaking moment that changed her path and inspired her work protecting endangered rhinos and elephants. Along the way, Bill and Shannon debate cosmetic procedures, relationships, and why sex before dinner simply makes more sense.

• 3:44Bill Maher?

  There must be more people each day wanting to talk to you.

• 3:46Speaker 06

  The only relationship I need are the relationships on OnlyFans that I'm building with all of these people.

• 3:54Bill Maher?

  Do you think people who have fantasies like that are not hoping the fantasy becomes a reality?

• 4:03Bill Maher?

  Shannon?

• 4:04Speaker 06

  Hello?

• 4:06Bill Maher?

  Oh, my gosh.

• 4:07Speaker 06

  It's been so long.

• 4:08Bill Maher?

  Be still my beating heart.

• 4:09Speaker 06

  How are you?

• 4:11Bill Maher?

  You're the same.

• 4:12Speaker 06

  You're...

• 4:13Bill Maher?

  The object of desire from American Pie. It's aged not at all.

• 4:18Speaker 06

  So good to see you.

• 4:19Bill Maher?

  My co-star in... What was that movie? We were in a movie together.

• 4:25Speaker 06

  Which one? Yeah, my memory is shot.

• 4:30Bill Maher?

  No. 11 Academy Awards, I believe it was nominated for.

• 4:34Speaker 06

  Are you talking about Love Actually?

• 4:35Bill Maher?

  No.

• 4:36Speaker 06

  Oh, okay.

• 4:37Bill Maher?

  I'm fucking with you.

• 4:38Speaker 06

  Okay, I don't know.

• 4:39Bill Maher?

  It was a really... It was like that era when people did like, you know, raunchy... Like American Pie.

• 4:47Speaker 06

  Jay and Silent Bob?

• 4:49Bill Maher?

  No, that's a great movie. And you're great in it.

• 4:51Speaker 06

  Oh, thank you.

• 4:52Bill Maher?

  That, I feel, is a real great performance. I love that movie. I want to talk to him.

• 4:56Speaker 06

  Thank you.

• 4:57Bill Maher?

  He got mad...

• 4:57Speaker 06

  Kevin?

• 4:58Bill Maher?

  Yeah, he got mad at me once.

• 4:59Speaker 06

  Oh, no.

• 5:01Bill Maher?

  Yeah, something I said about Stan Lee.

• 5:04Speaker 06

  Oh, no.

• 5:05Bill Maher?

  People.

• 5:05Speaker 06

  I'm sorry.

• 5:06Bill Maher?

  So hard to keep on their good side.

• 5:07Speaker 06

  I know.

• 5:08Bill Maher?

  No, it was called... Oh, my God, I was the bad guy. We didn't have any scenes together. It was... I don't know why I did it. It was the year 2000. I was doing Politically Incorrect.

• 5:17Speaker 06

  Uh-huh.

• 5:17Bill Maher?

  I...

• 5:18Speaker 06

  Well, we did Politically Incorrect together.

• 5:20Bill Maher?

  Yes, we did that, too.

• 5:21Speaker 06

  Yeah?

• 5:21Bill Maher?

  There's design.

• 5:23Speaker 06

  Yes, I saw it. I saw it. It's amazing.

• 5:25Bill Maher?

  It makes a great art piece, right?

• 5:27Speaker 06

  I love it. I mean, it wasn't Scary Movie, was it?

• 5:30Bill Maher?

  No, no. It was... You were like the star with Jerry O'Connell.

• 5:35Speaker 06

  Oh, Tom Catz.

• 5:37Bill Maher?

  Tom Catz?

• 5:38Speaker 06

  Won so many awards.

• 5:42Speaker 06

  Yes, you're right, Tom Catz.

• 5:44Bill Maher?

  Yeah, they flew me... Why I even took this? I hadn't acted in like, you know, I went into what I should have always been doing, which is, you know, talking about politics on television. But, you know, when you're a young comic, then the next step is you're... I did sitcoms, and, you know, I'm sure you've seen My Murder, She Wrote.

• 6:00Speaker 06

  Yeah, of course. Well, of course.

• 6:03Speaker 06

  Well, I mean, that movie wasn't... It didn't turn out the way it was originally written on paper. It was the way it was written and when it was cast was one thing. And then they brought someone in that changed the whole thing halfway through filming. And that was the problem with that movie.

• 6:19Bill Maher?

  Now, this is a back... I'm not sure that was the only problem with that movie, but I feel like I am getting a backstory that I never knew. Again, I had one day. Why I even did it, I don't know. I was over that part of my career, but I guess I thought it would be fun. It was in Vegas. I remember I did still do my show. They got a jet for me. I flew in the night before, got up at, of course, crack of dawn, which is like, to me, the middle of the night, did all my scenes, and then rushed back to LA on the jet and tired as fuck, did my show that night. But I was the bad guy. I was like the guy at the casino.

• 6:54Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 6:55Bill Maher?

  And he was like in debt, Jerry O'Connell or some shit.

• 6:58Speaker 06

  You know, you're saying it like I just watched it. I haven't seen it since I filmed it, and I might not have even seen it all then.

• 7:04Bill Maher?

  Okay, well, anyway...

• 7:05Speaker 06

  I'm the worst.

• 7:05Bill Maher?

  I was like the bad guy who was threatening Jerry.

• 7:10Speaker 06

  Okay.

• 7:11Bill Maher?

  And, you know, I wasn't... I was, of course, the bad guy, the upper... I wasn't the henchman himself, please. That was some gorilla. But I was... I'll sic my gorilla on you if you don't, Mr. Gorilla.

• 7:23Speaker 06

  Right.

• 7:24Bill Maher?

  That was my part. And we shot it all in one day, and people still talk about it, Shannon.

• 7:29Speaker 06

  Really?

• 7:30Bill Maher?

  Now, they do.

• 7:31Speaker 06

  In a good or a bad way?

• 7:32Bill Maher?

  Oh, they still just... It's used in acting class.

• 7:36Speaker 06

  That's funny.

• 7:37Bill Maher?

  But who else was in that?

• 7:39Speaker 06

  Um, it was... Gosh, you really put me on the spot. Jamie Presley was in it.

• 7:43Bill Maher?

  Jamie Presley?

• 7:44Speaker 06

  Yes.

• 7:46Bill Maher?

  Wow, you're right.

• 7:49Speaker 06

  And I mean, I can picture the people in my head, but naming them is really difficult for me.

• 7:54Bill Maher?

  That's all I would remember.

• 7:55Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 7:57Bill Maher?

  And I remember the billing. Bill Maher in a...

• 8:01Bill Maher?

  Who was the director?

• 8:03Speaker 06

  Oh...

• 8:04Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 8:04Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 8:07Speaker 06

  I mean, it's, you know, it's been, what, 25 years?

• 8:10Bill Maher?

  Yeah, but I worked on it one day. I'm not supposed to remember the director. You worked with them for how... How was long was the shoot? Two months?

• 8:16Speaker 06

  But it was 25 years ago.

• 8:17Bill Maher?

  I know.

• 8:19Speaker 06

  I mean, we go through this thing called menopause, and our brain goes.

• 8:22Bill Maher?

  What do you mean, "we"?

• 8:23Speaker 06

  We, we women, we women.

• 8:25Bill Maher?

  I was gonna say.

• 8:26Speaker 06

  Us women go through this thing.

• 8:27Bill Maher?

  Don't throw that net over me. Well, there's such a thing as male... They say there's such a thing as male...

• 8:32Speaker 06

  It's called manopause.

• 8:33Bill Maher?

  Yeah. I'm not sure what that is. Men definitely go through a midlife crisis.

• 8:38Speaker 06

  Well, it's hormones, right? So everyone's hormones change. It just affects women, I think, in a different way than men. But I think men do feel it. It's just, maybe you don't get the hot flashes.

• 8:49Bill Maher?

  No. Exactly. We buy sports cars.

• 8:53Speaker 06

  Yeah?

• 8:53Bill Maher?

  I mean, that's what men do. They like to...

• 8:54Speaker 06

  That's okay, too.

• 8:56Bill Maher?

  It's okay, yes. I mean, they do things like hair plugs or...

• 9:00Speaker 06

  Start a podcast.

• 9:02Bill Maher?

  Go, Malice, to the moon.

• 9:07Bill Maher?

  Yeah, I feel like I went through a silly little period when I was 50, which is a little late. Forty is more the age when men go through that. It's like, oh, my gosh, my life didn't turn out the way I wanted to. And, you know, my kids hate me and my wife doesn't fuck me anymore. I avoided all that.

• 9:29Speaker 06

  Really?

• 9:30Bill Maher?

  Yeah, my kids don't hate me because they don't exist.

• 9:33Speaker 06

  Right.

• 9:33Bill Maher?

  Same thing with my wife. So.

• 9:36Speaker 06

  I mean, and sometimes it's just better that way. For some people, I mean, I don't have kids. I don't have a husband and I'm gonna keep it that way.

• 9:44Bill Maher?

  You don't need one.

• 9:45Speaker 06

  Very happy with that.

• 9:46Bill Maher?

  You don't need one.

• 9:47Speaker 06

  No.

• 9:48Bill Maher?

  Does this come up on OnlyFans?

• 9:50Speaker 06

  No. No, because on OnlyFans, you know, it's different because.

• 9:57Bill Maher?

  It's the fantasy that.

• 9:58Speaker 06

  Yeah, I mean, I'm chatting with people, but I'm not like trying to meet up with them and, you know, have an affair.

• 10:05Bill Maher?

  I would not expect, but they are.

• 10:09Speaker 06

  I don't think.

• 10:10Bill Maher?

  They're har- aren't they harboring the fantasy?

• 10:12Speaker 06

  It's a fantasy.

• 10:14Bill Maher?

  Okay, but do you think people who have fantasies like that are not in some little part of their heart of hearts hoping the fantasy becomes a reality?

• 10:25Speaker 06

  I mean, look, never meet your heroes, you know? Like, we know how that goes, so I don't, I think it's always.

• 10:32Bill Maher?

  I wouldn't say never, some have, some have.

• 10:34Speaker 06

  Some surprising.

• 10:35Bill Maher?

  Some surprise you and some are, you're correct. They really disappoint you. It's something you shouldn't see up close.

• 10:43Speaker 06

  But, you know, when I, when I meet fans, I really try to make sure to give them time and to be as friendly as I can be, to give them, to be the person they were hoping I would be.

• 11:00Bill Maher?

  Right.

• 11:00Speaker 06

  Because I don't ever want them to be like, oh, I used to love her and now I hate her. Like, I never want anyone to have that feeling.

• 11:06Bill Maher?

  I have the same exact feeling.

• 11:08Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 11:08Bill Maher?

  When I'm, you know, when I go out and people come up to me, I'm, the people around me always say, you're so nice to people. I say, why wouldn't I be?

• 11:16Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 11:17Bill Maher?

  You know, they're, it's first of all, it takes guts to walk up to somebody, even if you're saying something nice.

• 11:25Speaker 06

  And they're your fans. They love you.

• 11:27Bill Maher?

  They love you.

• 11:28Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 11:29Bill Maher?

  How could you kick that kiss forward in the mouth? You know, it's, they love you and it's, and I love them for it.

• 11:35Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 11:35Bill Maher?

  And, and, I mean, I guess we all reach our fans on a certain wavelength. With me, it's, I feel it's very deep because the reason they love me is because what I say means something to them.

• 11:52Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 11:53Bill Maher?

  They feel like no one else says it this way. I either agree with him and nobody else is saying it, and so that is just such a beacon in the dark. Or he said it and like, wow, I didn't think of it that way and now I get it. And that is a deep, I would almost say intimate connection.

• 12:14Speaker 06

  People that, that are your fans are kind of everything. Like, they're amazing. And I know I've been a fan of people where, I mean, I met Garth Brooks and I just started crying. I'm like, my friend's like, why are you crying? Like, don't cry now, we're gonna take a photo. But they're just being in his presence because I was such a huge fan. My, it just, my emotions got the best of me. And I've had people do that where they cry and I know, so I know how that feels, you know? And, and you just, you want that moment of connection and you carry that with you the rest of your life.

• 12:50Bill Maher?

  I gotta dial up Garth Brooks. You know, I love it when I find somebody who, because I get music like the old fashioned way. I use the old iPod.

• 13:02Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 13:02Bill Maher?

  I won't bore you with why it's better, but it is. And I buy the music, I actually pay for it because I think they should get paid for it.

• 13:09Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 13:09Bill Maher?

  Right off iTunes and I download it. And like, there's somebody who, I've always known the name, I know he's huge, I don't, I couldn't like sing one note.

• 13:23Speaker 06

  You don't know the song "The Dance"?

• 13:25Bill Maher?

  I don't know any of this.

• 13:26Speaker 06

  It's my favorite song in the world.

• 13:27Bill Maher?

  So I'm gonna, I'm gonna do that because I bet it's, I bet it's good because that many people liked it. And he was past the point when country music was like corny. So I bet you it's like that country pop sound, which I like from a lot of people.

• 13:39Speaker 06

  He's amazing. Friends, listen to "Friends in Low Places".

• 13:42Bill Maher?

  Oh, I'm gonna listen to all, I know, I know the title, I know that's iconic. No, I'm gonna do that. He's gonna be my next one. I just did that with the group called The Pet Shop Boys.

• 13:51Speaker 06

  Yeah, yeah, I remember them.

• 13:53Bill Maher?

  I remember the name. I never listened to them and then something made me like do it and I downloaded their greatest hits and I'm like, whoa, this is just my kind of shit. And it's very sophisticated. It's great and it's like from the eighties.

• 14:07Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 14:08Bill Maher?

  So it's like awesome that I have new music, even though it was 40 years ago. But to me, it's new.

• 14:14Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 14:14Bill Maher?

  And if it came out today, I bet you it would do okay. I mean, not great because every generation has to find its own shit.

• 14:21Speaker 06

  Who's your favorite artist?

• 14:24Bill Maher?

  Well, I mean, I have to put The Beatles at the top of the pantheon, but like if I had to take music to a desert island, I don't know because like I've heard, also heard them the most.

• 14:34Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 14:35Bill Maher?

  So maybe I would want somebody who I didn't hear, hear that much.

• 14:39Speaker 06

  As long as you know you like them.

• 14:40Bill Maher?

  Oh, I would have to love them.

• 14:42Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 14:42Bill Maher?

  But, you know, and there's so many people who are, who are great. I mean, music is, I would, I don't envy anyone getting into that business. It's super competitive. There's already been a zillion great songs written. How many notes are there that you could, I just.

• 15:02Speaker 06

  It's a combination and it's the lyrics.

• 15:05Bill Maher?

  I know, but even a combination is a finite formula.

• 15:08Speaker 06

  That's why when a song takes you, it's so great. Because, yeah, there are a lot of songs. But now they have platforms like YouTube and people can put themselves out there. It's not like the old days. You know, people always say, how can I get into acting now? It's very different now than when I was acting, like in the beginning. People can do things online and be discovered and they can film their own films and put it online. And, I mean, look at some of the top movie, grossing movies in the country. These were YouTubers that made them.

• 15:38Bill Maher?

  The ones out in the summer, yeah.

• 15:39Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 15:40Bill Maher?

  Obsession and, and Back Rooms or what is it called?

• 15:43Speaker 06

  Something like that, yeah.

• 15:44Bill Maher?

  It's, yeah, I haven't seen them. I'm anxious to see them. I, I might love them. The one, Back Rooms, no, what's it called? There, I don't know, but it's like, it, it sounds to me, the way it's described, like something that really maybe not a Gen Z-er is gonna go, what the fuck is this? Because it's a lot of like empty rooms with fluorescent lighting. It sounds like a Sears store in 2005.

• 16:15Speaker 06

  And everyone just said, what's Sears?

• 16:17Bill Maher?

  Yeah, exactly, yeah, exactly. But, I don't know, people seem to like it and, but that generation definitely has issues, shall we say, that I don't have, you know?

• 16:31Speaker 06

  Yeah, I don't know if I would like it or not. I mean, I remember when Blair Witch came out.

• 16:35Bill Maher?

  I remember that too.

• 16:36Speaker 06

  And it, it was so hyped that by the time I saw it, I was expecting this and I got this.

• 16:43Bill Maher?

  I agree.

• 16:44Speaker 06

  If I had seen it before I heard the hype, I might have liked it more.

• 16:47Bill Maher?

  Correct. I have the same feeling, like this is what all the fuss is about.

• 16:51Speaker 06

  Yeah. Yeah, I think I needed to see it before the fuss.

• 16:54Bill Maher?

  Right, because then you expected something it wasn't supposed to be, which was just kind of a, is this even really a movie?

• 17:03Speaker 06

  That was also kind of the beginning of the whole handheld.

• 17:06Bill Maher?

  Well, yeah, it was like it was shot on a phone because it was supposed to look that way.

• 17:09Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 17:10Bill Maher?

  I mean, the people who don't remember is that they go into the woods, there's this myth that there's a Blair Witch, Witch in the woods. And so they're just like shooting each other on their phone, right? Or something like that. I guess this was before, it can't be that because this was before.

• 17:24Speaker 06

  It was camera.

• 17:25Bill Maher?

  Before smartphones, but.

• 17:26Speaker 06

  It was those old school like video cams, I think. Yeah, the big ones that look so ancient now.

• 17:34Bill Maher?

  Right.

• 17:35Speaker 06

  Yeah, I think it was that.

• 17:36Bill Maher?

  But I, I still don't quite know what goes on on OnlyFans. Like, like it's a, you say you talk to the fans.

• 17:45Speaker 06

  So it's a way for me to connect with my fans.

• 17:46Bill Maher?

  I know, but like, like walk grandpa through the like, through like how the, the mechanics of how it happens. Because I really don't know, like, like.

• 17:58Bill Maher?

  It's not like a webcam. I mean, that's the old version that...

• 18:03Speaker 06

  It's sharing photos and sharing videos, but instead of me doing it...

• 18:06Bill Maher?

  But with individuals? Or with a million people at a time?

• 18:09Speaker 06

  One-on-one.

• 18:09Bill Maher?

  One-on-one, always?

• 18:11Speaker 06

  Always.

• 18:11Bill Maher?

  So interesting.

• 18:12Speaker 06

  In fact, we tried to do this when American Pie came out. I did my website. I was one of the first actors, I think, to have a website. Because at that point, only adult entertainers had websites. Actors didn't have websites. So everybody thought I was crazy for building a website. And so we tried to do like a fan area where I could chat with people one-on-one. But the system kept crashing. So the technology wasn't there yet. We just, I mean, we did it with Maxim as well, and it crashed.

• 18:42Bill Maher?

  You're a system crasher.

• 18:43Speaker 06

  I'm a system crasher. Sure. But now the technology's there. So instead of me sharing the inner workings of my life on Instagram, I chose to do it on there, where I could have more one-on-one with my fans. And it was just a different platform. It was just a choice. And that's what OnlyFans was always meant to be, for fans. My understanding is, yes, there have been adult entertainers that use it for other types of adult entertainment. But everyone can do what they want with it. It doesn't mean that that's what it was built for and that's what you're doing if you're on there.

• 19:19Bill Maher?

  True. I mean, you could be sharing recipes.

• 19:22Speaker 06

  Could be.

• 19:23Bill Maher?

  Or poetry, but mostly...

• 19:24Speaker 06

  Or dentures.

• 19:25Bill Maher?

  It's men masturbating.

• 19:27Speaker 06

  I, look...

• 19:28Bill Maher?

  Which is not wrong. There is a need for masturbation.

• 19:33Speaker 06

  I don't know that that's what's happening, not when I'm chatting to them. I mean, I, look...

• 19:37Bill Maher?

  Well, you're not even naked, right?

• 19:39Speaker 06

  When people, no, not necessarily.

• 19:41Bill Maher?

  But see, that can be, that can even be even sexier.

• 19:43Speaker 06

  I haven't decided like exactly where my boundaries are gonna be. I've just started. It's only been a couple of months. So where my boundaries are...

• 19:52Bill Maher?

  The money's outrageous, right?

• 19:54Speaker 06

  Um, you know, the, the launch is always really good. And, and then it becomes a steady thing, but it's not about that for me. It's really connecting with people and being able to share. Because I was never good at like filming myself and putting it out there. In fact, I pulled so far the other way. Because everybody, you go to dinner and everybody's on their phone. So I pulled this way where I was like, I'm never gonna be on my phone at dinner when I'm with friends. I'm never gonna be that person. And then I would forget to do any content. I would just forget. It wasn't on my radar. And for years, I've said, I need to start doing content. I need to start sharing. I wanna put this out there.

• 20:36Speaker 06

  And so finally, instead, I never really could make myself do it with Instagram. But with OnlyFans, you know, I've, I've hired some people that have helped me keep me intact, keep me focused, so that they always say, okay, we need, we need to know what you're doing this week. We need your content. And it just keeps me going. It reminds me, if I start forgetting, then I do that. And then I go on and I chat with people.

• 21:01Bill Maher?

  It's funny, you know, Bo Derek was here recently. You know Bo Derek?

• 21:05Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 21:05Bill Maher?

  Okay. And she was in the ultimate, um, sort of man midlife crisis movie, which is Ten. Do you remember Ten?

• 21:16Speaker 06

  Vaguely, I know what it is.

• 21:18Bill Maher?

  Right. She was like, it's funny, we were also talking about the fact that America like sort of only has like one hot girl for like a decade. Like, she was one, and you were one of those. So was Carmen Electra, and so was Pamela Anderson. Like, boy, when they find that one girl, it's, I mean, and that girl is like super cute, like you are, and still are. And so were those girls. But it's not like they're the only cute girl in the country. But it's sort of like that. It's like, you have the crown. We will get boners for no one else but you for the next 10 years. Shannon Elizabeth, you are the, the queen. And then it's, you know, Pam Anderson was that. And Carmen, and, uh, yeah, I don't know who it is now, but, uh, it's, it's amazing.

• 22:02Bill Maher?

  But, uh, yeah, that's a midlife crisis movie because the guy Dudley Moore, you know, he just fixates on her. He doesn't even know who she is. He's, he's 40, has a 40th birthday party. He sees her driving by, she's in a wedding dress. She's about to get married.

• 22:17Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 22:17Bill Maher?

  And he's still fixate on it. It was a great way to say, men lose their minds.

• 22:23Speaker 06

  Yeah?

• 22:23Bill Maher?

  And women make them do it.

• 22:25Speaker 06

  Yeah. Do you remember a film called Two Moon Junction?

• 22:28Bill Maher?

  Yes, I do. Who was in that?

• 22:29Speaker 06

  Cheryl and Finn. And she was also engaged to be married. And it was about a circus comes to town and she has this like steamy affair with one of the circus workers. That was a hot movie.

• 22:41Bill Maher?

• 25:53Speaker 06

  Mm-mm.

• 25:54Bill Maher?

  Oh, you should dial it up tonight.

• 25:56Speaker 06

  Okay.

• 25:56Bill Maher?

  A Walk on the Moon, Diane Lane.

• 25:58Speaker 06

  Okay, yeah.

• 25:59Bill Maher?

  Who...

• 26:00Speaker 06

  Beautiful.

• 26:00Bill Maher?

  Beautiful.

• 26:01Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 26:02Bill Maher?

  Yes.

• 26:02Speaker 06

  Stunning.

• 26:03Bill Maher?

  Stunning, elegant. Aged gracefully.

• 26:07Speaker 06

  Yes.

• 26:08Bill Maher?

  Wasn't like, you know, I mean...

• 26:11Speaker 06

  And how do you guys feel about that?

• 26:13Bill Maher?

  About what?

• 26:14Speaker 06

  Well, aging gracefully and looking older versus doing everything you can to not look older.

• 26:23Bill Maher?

  Well, you know, people say I've had work done, Jen, and it is just the stupidest lie. I can't believe where they're getting this shit from, but you know the type of words. They will make up anything to make you look mad.

• 26:35Speaker 06

  Of course.

• 26:38Bill Maher?

  No, I mean, it's funny. It's kind of like fake tits. There's good ones and bad ones. There's good big ones and bad big ones and good little ones and bad little ones and that's funny, I'm remembering this now. You were in a magazine, like when they had the Lottie magazines.

• 26:57Speaker 06

  Maxim.

• 26:57Bill Maher?

  That kind of, they were very popular for Stuff.

• 27:01Speaker 06

  Stuff, somebody mentioned that the other day. I'm like Stuff, I hadn't heard that name in forever.

• 27:06Bill Maher?

  I'm sure you were on the cover of Stuff.

• 27:08Speaker 06

  I think I was.

• 27:09Bill Maher?

  I just, the things you remember, I remember in the interview part, somebody, there was some part where they said something about a movie you did and it was like, and they were gonna get you padding. And you said, padding? Excuse me?

• 27:26Speaker 06

  I don't remember that.

• 27:27Bill Maher?

  Yes, I could show it to you. Well, I couldn't. I mean, I guess I could, because we could find anything on the internet.

• 27:32Speaker 06

  I mean, if it happened, yeah. Even if it didn't happen, we'll find it.

• 27:36Bill Maher?

  I just sort of, it's funny, because you were, because there was a picture of you, like, right next to there.

• 27:41Speaker 06

  Right, like, I don't need padding.

• 27:42Bill Maher?

  Rightly offended to say you needed padding.

• 27:46Speaker 06

  Yeah, I mean, look, to be fair, I think they padded me in Scary Movie. Because like, they had, my boobs were like, below my chin at one point, like, in the one scene, like, in the beginning, when I'm like shaking my head, I always look at my boobs, and I'm sure I was padded there, like, they're big.

• 28:02Bill Maher?

  But you were wearing clothing, you're saying?

• 28:04Speaker 06

  Yeah, but like, but like, they were very padded and pushed up.

• 28:10Bill Maher?

  Wow.

• 28:10Speaker 06

  I believe.

• 28:11Bill Maher?

  I think that was a bad choice on the director's part, you know?

• 28:16Speaker 06

  I mean.

• 28:16Bill Maher?

  I mean, because only, I'm gonna say this because I've seen those pictures in Stuff, and they were topless, you know, they weren't.

• 28:24Speaker 06

  Wait, I didn't do topless in Stuff. I don't think so. Not, not, I did Playboy.

• 28:30Bill Maher?

  No, no, this, I think that, oh, maybe it was Playboy.

• 28:33Speaker 06

  That's the only time I think I did need it, it was Playboy.

• 28:36Bill Maher?

  Okay.

• 28:37Speaker 06

  But they, you can't really pat anything if you're naked.

• 28:42Bill Maher?

  That's why I was confused, that's why I was confused, because I was picturing the naked. Okay, I swear, I've, I've mixed up my stroke books and bad thing I do.

• 28:53Bill Maher?

  I'm not gonna lie, I saved some of those magazines for a very long time.

• 28:57Speaker 06

  See, you could bring them to Comic Cons like everyone else, and I'll sign them for you.

• 29:01Bill Maher?

  Is that why you're here? Are you, you were doing something in Vegas for?

• 29:05Speaker 06

  I was doing something for my nonprofit.

• 29:08Bill Maher?

  What's that? Oh, for your rhino?

• 29:10Speaker 06

  So, it's for wildlife.

• 29:12Bill Maher?

  Okay.

• 29:12Speaker 06

  Actually, brought you one of the gift bags from it.

• 29:14Bill Maher?

  You know I'm a PETA board member.

• 29:15Speaker 06

  I do. You've always been such a huge animal person.

• 29:20Bill Maher?

  You know who I saw the other night, because she came to my Mark Twain Award thing at the Kennedy Center, is Ingrid Nukirk, head of PETA.

• 29:26Speaker 06

  Oh, yes?

• 29:27Bill Maher?

  So, yeah.

• 29:27Speaker 06

  Oh, amazing.

• 29:28Bill Maher?

  Nice that she was there.

• 29:29Speaker 06

  The work that you do for animals is unbelievable.

• 29:32Bill Maher?

  I don't do any work for animals, that's, I always say this to the people, like, Bill, you do so much, I don't do so much, I do what I can.

• 29:39Speaker 06

  But advocating is a lot.

• 29:40Bill Maher?

  I advocate, but that is such a small thing next to what Ingrid does. She goes to India and like, takes the actual paw out of the chain.

• 29:49Speaker 06

  Yeah, but, I mean, Ricky Gervais says the same thing, I don't do anything, but you guys do a lot, because.

• 29:55Bill Maher?

  We, we do what behind the line cowards do best.

• 29:58Speaker 06

  No.

• 29:59Bill Maher?

  You know, we, we do what we can, no, it's, I'm just saying.

• 30:01Speaker 06

  But that's it, everything you can is what's

• 30:04Bill Maher?

  Everything you, exactly.

• 30:05Speaker 06

  Needed.

• 30:05Bill Maher?

  Oh, no, I don't feel guilty about it. I'm not going to India and taking the paw out, I feel bad for the poor thing, but, I mean, you know, she's a saint, Ingrid Nukirk is a saint. I mean, and she's not young anymore doing this, you know?

• 30:20Speaker 06

  When it's your mission, you just kind of know, like, what you're meant to be doing.

• 30:23Bill Maher?

  I mean, before she came along,

• 30:27Bill Maher?

  I didn't know anybody who changed the view of it, of an issue, of the public on an issue.

• 30:35Bill Maher?

  So much as Ingrid Nukirk and PETA. Before she came along, it just wasn't any issue. You could do anything to an animal at any time. If you're making a movie and you want to look like the horse fell down, trip them. They're probably gonna break a leg and die, but you can do it. You want to put a monkey in a tuxedo and make him ride a, whatever, circuses. I mean, they have done a lot to get rid of circuses, a lot to roll back, even horse racing now, they say, is circling the drain.

• 31:07Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 31:07Bill Maher?

  This is, and, and fur, and it just wasn't on people's radars at all.

• 31:13Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 31:13Bill Maher?

  And it's for a lot of people, they still don't give a fuck what they do to animals. It's just not even an issue for them.

• 31:18Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 31:19Bill Maher?

  But I know it is for us.

• 31:20Speaker 06

  It is, it is, I mean.

• 31:22Bill Maher?

  And it's, it's not mostly rhinos? I thought you were.

• 31:24Speaker 06

  No, we were inspired by a blind black rhino, but this was after it was already going for many, many years. So, we started out over there, you know, I had Animal Avengers here, which was a dog and cat rescue in L.A. I started that in 2001. And so, right around American Pie. And then, after running it for a very long time, I just knew I wanted to help more animals on a bigger scale and kind of went on a journey of discovery. And realized that there was a poaching crisis and that animals like rhinos and elephants could go extinct in our lifetime. And I saw a video of a ranger in the field, and he was filming an elephant that had been poached, and her trunk was off to the side.

• 32:09Speaker 06

  And then, you saw the rest of her, and then she moved. I could see, just barely make out her mouth, and she moved. And my heart dropped, and I just started crying, and it flipped a switch in me. And I said, that's, I, I don't know what I can do, but that's what I need to go try to help with. Like, I didn't know they were suffering like this. And it's so much worse than even just that, because with like, a lot of the, the babies, they stay with the mothers even after they're poached. And then, quite often, they get dehydrated, or they'll die from the lions and hyenas. I mean, there's a horrible photo of, it's a rhino that's been poached and the baby's standing at the back end of the mother,

• 32:53Speaker 06

  and the hyenas, hyenas are eating on the front end. And it just, it kills me if, like, I tell people, I can't even see the videos anymore that they want to send, it's so horrific.

• 33:06Bill Maher?

  I'm a baby about it, I can't either, I just can't.

• 33:09Speaker 06

  It's like, I need to know. I need to know so I can do something, but I, I can't watch it all the time.

• 33:15Bill Maher?

  You live in South Africa now, right? I mean, you're really on the ground doing it.

• 33:18Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 33:19Bill Maher?

  And are we making progress? Is there?

• 33:22Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 33:23Bill Maher?

  Is there hope?

• 33:23Speaker 06

  Yeah, there is hope.

• 33:24Bill Maher?

  I mean, there's a lot of people who are on our page.

• 33:27Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 33:29Bill Maher?

  It's really, like everything, if you want to fix anything in this country, this world, it's about organization. I know that's not sexy. I mean, not to always be ragged on the younger generation, but they are incredibly stupid about issues, what they think is important. They get all their information from TikTok.

• 33:45Speaker 06

  And Facebook, yeah.

• 33:46Bill Maher?

  So, you know, so they're all there, it's all about Gaza, and let's, let's go with the Intifada, and just this stupid, the stupidest, communism, let's bring that back, and just crazy shit that it will only make their life worse. I mean, and it, look, everybody knows this is my pet issue. I try, I probably bend over backwards a little too much by not doing it a lot, because I know it's what, well, come on, that's Bill's thing, so I don't want to look like I'm that in the tank, but I am in the tank for this issue, and so I, I, I do it where I can and try to, you know, keep it in people's consciousness. And they are generally on the page, it's, what it comes down to, again, is organization, which is what you're doing.

• 34:31Bill Maher?

  And also, like, how much are you willing to do? I mean, that's where the rubber meets the road with humans. It's like, if you ask in a survey, you know, do you think there's a climate crisis? Yes. How much are you willing to spend a year to solve it? A hundred dollars. Well, that's not gonna get it done. It's like, yeah, and there are people who, many would not spend one cent. They don't even believe it, it's happening. So, that's it. I mean, you'll get a lot of people, oh, they shouldn't do that to animals. Well, what are you willing to do? Not a lot. So, you know, people like you, who are, and Ingrid, who are really on the ground doing it, have just my highest admiration. I think it's a much more fulfilling life than fucking kids.

• 35:16Bill Maher?

  Children just are not my speed or never have been. And you never had, you never wanted.

• 35:22Speaker 06

  My dogs are my kids.

• 35:24Bill Maher?

  Yeah, me too.

• 35:25Speaker 06

  I've always thought of them as my kids, so.

• 35:28Speaker 06

  I, yeah, I've just known that my mission has always been animals. That's why I was put on this planet.

• 35:34Bill Maher?

  And what's your, I'm curious, what's your life in South Africa like on a day? I mean, I of course know about South Africa. I've never been there. What city are you in?

• 35:45Speaker 06

  I'm, I'm based in Cape Town.

• 35:47Bill Maher?

  Cape Town, oh.

• 35:48Speaker 06

  Our sanctuary is in the eastern Cape, so Cape Town is the western Cape.

• 35:53Bill Maher?

  I know it's a beautiful country.

• 35:54Speaker 06

  It's stunning.

• 35:55Bill Maher?

  Stunning, yeah, I know.

• 35:56Speaker 06

  Yeah, it's beautiful. And, you know, my, my life there, it changes. It depends, like, if I'm home, I'm working on the computer a lot on like charity things and programs.

• 36:07Bill Maher?

  And what's home like, a wooden hut?

• 36:10Speaker 06

  No.

• 36:10Bill Maher?

  I know, I'm fucking.

• 36:12Speaker 06

  I mean, Cape Town, it, you could be in the south of France and gorgeous.

• 36:18Bill Maher?

  Yeah, I'm sure.

• 36:19Speaker 06

  It's like any European.

• 36:20Bill Maher?

  It's a very successful, sophisticated country. And by the way, not that they don't have a sorry history, just like we do racially, but one of the few revolutions, and I'm talking about, you know, it was, you know, an apartheid state where the black people were just, had no representation. You know, that, you know, there was a bloodless revolution. I mean, the president of South Africa has been black since the 90s. You know, that doesn't usually happen. I gotta give them a little credit for, I guess, they thought, you know, why it's inevitable. But most people don't do that. They fight to the end and they gave up power.

• 37:02Bill Maher?

  And sadly, a lot of the problems persist in South. I know it has a lot of problems.

• 37:09Speaker 06

  There's a lot of corruption.

• 37:10Bill Maher?

  A lot of corruption.

• 37:11Speaker 06

  But I think there's corruption everywhere.

• 37:12Bill Maher?

  And a lot of still poverty.

• 37:14Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 37:14Bill Maher?

  I mean, crazy, crazy levels of shanty town, tin roof poverty.

• 37:19Speaker 06

  Yeah, a lot of, a very high rate of unemployment, like very high. And so, so it is difficult. I, honestly, I, it, it could be solved. I think a lot of, a lot of the issues in the world could be solved if there was the right people behind it that no, like corruption didn't exist.

• 37:41Bill Maher?

  People are always the problem. I mean, they're the solution, but they're also the problem.

• 37:45Speaker 06

  Yeah, I mean, that's, that's why the animals have issues. It's from people. It's not each other. It's not the other animals that they have issues with. It's us.

• 37:53Bill Maher?

  They do have issues with each other because they eat each other.

• 37:55Speaker 06

  Yes, yes, but, but they can balance each other out just fine, you know? They wouldn't need our help.

• 38:01Bill Maher?

  And nature is brutal. I mean, listen, kid ourselves, you know, I mean, but that's nature. I mean, you do feel bad when you watch the video of the, you know, hyenas, whatever. They, they find the weak one of the herd. It's not like they're not mean girls. You know, they're.

• 38:16Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 38:17Bill Maher?

  But, you know, that's, that's the way of the world. I mean, my dog is, I mean, I had two, for the same two for like the last 12, 13 years. And the one died in August and the other one is like so ancient.

• 38:32Speaker 06

  I'm sorry.

• 38:32Bill Maher?

  Like, it's okay. I mean, she's not unhappy right now, but she, you know, barely moves and, you know, I mean, would be in nature would, would have died.

• 38:42Speaker 06

  Right.

• 38:43Bill Maher?

  So many years ago, as soon as you lose a step in nature, you're like a, you're like a running back in the NFL. If you lose a step, you're out of the league.

• 38:52Speaker 06

  Absolutely.

• 38:53Bill Maher?

  Here, when you're out of the league, they eat you.

• 38:57Bill Maher?

  But luckily, we, she's in a assisted facility called my house.

• 39:04Speaker 06

  Good, you're a good nurse, I'm sure.

• 39:06Bill Maher?

  Yeah, I mean, she's not unhappy, but just, that, that dog has always been very much a delicate lady, I must say.

• 39:15Speaker 06

  What kind of dog?

• 39:16Bill Maher?

  Who fucking knows? She's half, half a German shepherd. I think, I think they said half pit bull. You, you don't see that in her. She's, except, yeah, if you push her too far, she, she once almost killed the other dog. That's true. But she looks like a, you know, half size of a German shepherd.

• 39:34Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 39:35Bill Maher?

  But she was always, I mean, all, of all the dogs I have, she is the most like a woman. You know, very moody, very sensitive. Sometimes goes into real, like depressions.

• 39:53Speaker 06

  You know, there's new data saying that when you fix a female dog in the traditional way that we've always fixed them, you're messing with their hormones and it does affect them later.

• 40:05Bill Maher?

  I bet that's true. How could it not be?

• 40:08Speaker 06

  So there's new ways that they're starting to fix the animals so that they're not losing those hormones and they're healthier as they get older. But like, we didn't know that before, so there was always this traditional way. But the, the really good vets are starting to, to look at these things and do it differently.

• 40:27Bill Maher?

  Anytime you mess with the natural structure of the human body, you know, there's going to be serious repercussions.

• 40:40Speaker 06

  I mean, this goes for fixing your teeth. There's a lot of repercussions. There's things that, yeah.

• 40:45Bill Maher?

  Fixing your teeth?

• 40:45Speaker 06

  Yeah, like I've, I've heard these things, like if you fix all your teeth, they'll grind them down. And as you get older and you start having like real tooth issues, that grinding down and that stuff you did, you're hurting the nerves, you're affecting the, the bone in your mouth. There's all these things that nobody considers.

• 41:07Bill Maher?

  Fix that.

• 41:08Speaker 06

  Does what?

• 41:09Bill Maher?

  A sleep guard. You know, you are asleep.

• 41:11Speaker 06

  Well, that's grind, grinding your teeth. I mean, when they grind down the tooth to put like a cap on, say. So when they grind that down for you to put a proper cap on, that, that actually in later in life can really hurt you. So anytime we do these things to the body, we don't think about later.

• 41:29Bill Maher?

  I think I did that.

• 41:31Speaker 06

  We don't think, we don't know. And it's only over time that we start seeing, oh, maybe I wasn't supposed to, but nobody told me.

• 41:38Bill Maher?

  Over time for me would be now.

• 41:40Speaker 06

  And you're fine right now, right?

• 41:42Bill Maher?

  Yeah, but I'm.

• 41:43Speaker 06

  But now you're gonna be paranoid.

• 41:44Bill Maher?

  Seventy and, you know, if I did that, as Lucy used to say, ugh.

• 41:51Speaker 06

  Yes, she did.

• 41:52Bill Maher?

  I mean, yeah, but you're right. I, I never thought of that. Nobody ever presented that to me, but it's, it's, it's in line with what I philosophically believe in. Not philosophically, just by observation, by common sense. Anytime you do anything upstream in the human body, there's going to be a repercussion downstream. There just is. And sometimes that's a deal worth making.

• 42:16Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 42:17Bill Maher?

  You know, and some, but you should at least be aware of it. I mean, I don't think, even if I knew that, I wouldn't have done it because, forget what, what prompted that. It certainly wasn't cosmetic. It's not like I care about, I don't show much teeth, except when I'm angry.

• 42:38Bill Maher?

  So it wasn't that, but I guess it was, well, first of all, when I was a kid, it's unbelievable. They used to do this to people in 1964, but they drilled mercury into cavities.

• 42:51Speaker 06

  Yes.

• 42:51Bill Maher?

  That's what it was. They were drilling the mercury out.

• 42:54Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 42:54Bill Maher?

  They had to get, and that is one of those, absolutely, you have to do that. Mercury is horrible leaking into your body. So whatever it was, that's why, that's why they're all like that. Because they had to drill the mercury out and then put a cap on it.

• 43:07Speaker 06

  Yeah. I mean, even the silicone breasts that women put in, I mean, they say you're supposed to change them every 10 years, but nobody does that unless something goes wrong. And then they.

• 43:18Bill Maher?

  Change them.

• 43:19Speaker 06

  They start leaking.

• 43:20Bill Maher?

  How do you change them?

• 43:21Speaker 06

  Well, you have another surgery and you put new ones in. There's, there, there are doctors out there dedicated to this because women start having health issues and they don't realize it's from like implants that are leaking. And it's because it's, it's plastic.

• 43:36Bill Maher?

  Of course.

• 43:36Speaker 06

  So all the plastic degrades over time and you've got that, you've put that in your body. And then imagine a hole gets in and it actually starts coming out and like the health issues. So we only find this out later, you know, like all these great innovations and then we're like, oh, maybe there's a better way of doing it. But that's for the next generation now to discover with, AI will help. AI will help them figure out what else they can do, maybe.

• 44:04Bill Maher?

  I feel so guilty about all the fake tits I sucked on.

• 44:08Speaker 06

  Well, hopefully you didn't pop them.

• 44:10Bill Maher?

  I contributed.

• 44:10Speaker 06

  That's the problem. When guys are like aggressive, I'm like.

• 44:13Bill Maher?

  Right.

• 44:14Speaker 06

  You could pop them, like that's a problem.

• 44:17Bill Maher?

  That honestly never happened to me and, no, I would never do that, but.

• 44:23Bill Maher?

  Wow, I'm learning a lot from you.

• 44:26Speaker 06

  Yeah, I'm very into biohacking.

• 44:29Bill Maher?

  Do you talk, now you have, you, you, not you two, you, only, I had a few thing before I came over, OnlyFans, not you fans.

• 44:40Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 44:40Bill Maher?

  I'm on you fans.

• 44:41Speaker 06

  So you're on you fans?

• 44:42Bill Maher?

  Oh, you fans. It's the latest thing. It's amazing.

• 44:45Speaker 06

  Awesome.

• 44:45Bill Maher?

  I read Shakespeare naked. No.

• 44:48Speaker 06

  Perfect, on the toilet.

• 44:49Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 44:51Bill Maher?

  No, you two. I mean, I mean, OnlyFans, you're on Only. Do you talk about issues like this? I don't like how.

• 44:59Speaker 06

  We try to keep it light.

• 45:02Speaker 06

  I try not to preach. It's not really what they're there for.

• 45:07Bill Maher?

  You ever have a doctor call you personally to explain some test results? You might think, uh-oh. But it's actually this extra effort that makes the difference. A quick phone call is much better than some cryptic message through a patient portal. It wasn't a huge gesture, but again, it was the extra effort. And that's the stuff people remember.

• 47:58Bill Maher?

  I don't know. I think that I would find that very sexy, looking the way you look while you like talk about something like that. I think that could actually work in a big way.

• 48:11Speaker 06

  I try to pick and choose my audience. I save it for the intellects like you.

• 48:17Speaker 06

  Now, if people ask, I mean, I'll talk about it, but usually it's not really what they care about, but I have to like...

• 48:25Bill Maher?

  What do they care about? What are they saying? So it's very interactive?

• 48:28Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 48:29Bill Maher?

  I don't know much of it. I've never, I wouldn't know how to get on it if I wanted to.

• 48:34Speaker 06

  Yeah. You know, I was doing all these Comic Cons and I realized that I was starting to see my own projects from a different viewpoint. So, you know, you're talking about Tomcats and even your viewpoint is different than my viewpoint of what it was like being there. But with the fans, they get so excited over some of these films and they recite things to you and they, they tell you how that project changed their life. And so I'm getting to experience my career in a way that I never experienced it before because when I was doing it, I was just in this machine.

• 49:12Bill Maher?

  So what did they say? How did it change their life?

• 49:15Speaker 06

  Um, it may be like there was one woman that I'm actually quite close friends with now that one of my films helped her get through the death of her husband. He died of cancer and she needed something comforting. And one of my films just comforted her and she would just watch it on loop. You know, some of like, it's usually connected to something emotional in their life in that moment.

• 49:38Bill Maher?

  There's a lot of power in being a celebrity. I always thought that.

• 49:42Speaker 06

  It's a platform.

• 49:44Bill Maher?

  It's almost like being the captain of a ship, you know, you can, captain can like, like perform a marriage, you know?

• 49:51Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 49:51Bill Maher?

  Like he has that power. And because it's such a celebrity culture, it is like you can use it for evil, you can use it for good, but there is always power in celebrity. You can like sort of, I'm not going to say decree things, but you can suggest and summon and inspire and people just put more stock in celebrity than almost anything else. Their faith in institutions is dim at best at this point. Low wattage on what they think of media, government, church, religion, you know, even families are broken apart. But celebrities, they're just like us.

• 50:37Bill Maher?

  Oh, wait, they're not like us and that's what they like about it. They're a little preter human. They're a little above the average person in their view. That's why we're trying to be one. And so they just, you know, I know just in my own personal life, like I can get married couples together, you know, who are fighting or divorcing or, you know, things like that that they just, I don't think just a mere mortal would not have the power to say, "You two, get along." "Yes, sir."

• 51:08Speaker 06

  I mean, it works in the moment, right? But does it work long-term?

• 51:12Bill Maher?

  Oh, fuck, no.

• 51:14Speaker 06

  So say if it does, just become a therapist then.

• 51:17Bill Maher?

  Yeah. Actually, if I didn't do this, I would have loved to have been a therapist. Of course, I wouldn't want to go to school, but I, I mean, I basically think that the profession is so much bullshit. I mean, I just, it's laugh-out-loud funny, I think, sometimes. I mean, I went briefly in a situation of a couples' therapy and it was all I could do to literally not laugh out loud, but I thought that would really...

• 51:43Speaker 06

  Couples' therapy doesn't always work well. It makes it worse sometimes.

• 51:47Bill Maher?

  If you are at the point where you need it, just end it. It's fucking over. And I'm sure there are people who say, "Bill, you're a terrible person. We went and..." Well, probably what happened is, you know, you, maybe it fixed, yeah, okay, I shouldn't judge, you know, maybe it did actually fix and, and the person who doesn't know you that well was somehow able to hear and freshen eyes from the outside and, and say something that actually changed the trajectory of this relationship. But I think that's not often the case and often the case is that they go and they put the time in and they invested in it.

• 52:27Bill Maher?

  And so they just somehow say that they fixed it because they get to that point where they, the thing make the therapy makes them confront the idea of actually breaking up. And I certainly know that feeling, that scared feeling of, "Oh, fuck, I'm going to lose this person," even when I didn't really like the relationship. It can still be, it's what you know. And you just feel like, "Oh, my God, I'll be alone again and back in the world and having to find somebody and..." So, you know, so they run back to what's familiar. I mean, a lot of relationships that we applaud, because if you say on TV, "Been married 40

• 53:08Bill Maher?

  years," there's nothing more guaranteed applause than, but really a lot of it is codependency.

• 53:14Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 53:14Bill Maher?

  And codependency, it's fine. I don't think it's anything to brag about.

• 53:21Bill Maher?

  I, it doesn't say to me, "I succeeded in life. My roots and this other tree's roots grew together so intertwinedly that we cannot get apart."

• 53:31Speaker 06

  But not everyone's going to be codependent.

• 53:33Bill Maher?

  Not everyone, absolutely.

• 53:35Speaker 06

  It does happen. And there are people that stay in it longer than they should.

• 53:39Bill Maher?

  And some like it.

• 53:40Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 53:40Bill Maher?

  You could also be codependent and love it.

• 53:43Speaker 06

  And you could also be with someone and not be married and be perfectly happy or perfectly miserable, like, you know, marriage, having the certificate doesn't really mean anything.

• 53:53Bill Maher?

  What's the dating scene like in Cape Town?

• 53:57Speaker 06

  Well, I mean, I'm very newly single and I don't plan on ever dating again, to be honest.

• 54:03Bill Maher?

  Come on, you're going to date?

• 54:04Speaker 06

  No.

• 54:05Bill Maher?

  No, not even dating?

• 54:06Speaker 06

  I do not want to date.

• 54:07Bill Maher?

  Really?

• 54:08Speaker 06

  I'm not interested. I'm not interested, like, there's too many con artists out there. There's too many people I don't trust. I have no interest.

• 54:21Bill Maher?

  Well, I'm not saying I know you better than you because I don't, you know you better than you. I will say this, I have heard that from many people right after, I mean, including many celebrities, you know, I could go down a list.

• 54:35Speaker 06

  Okay.

• 54:35Bill Maher?

  You know, I mean, lots of A-list ladies have said, "Halle Berry," you know, "I am done." And then two months, two years later, no, she's with someone and then she's getting back, you know? It's like, I'm just saying, it's a, there's a, you know, sometime, time is a way

• 54:53Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 54:53Bill Maher?

  of making you lonely and making you miss the things. I know we are a very imperfect species, men, but there are some things that we just have, I'm not going to name things, but that are just hard to get otherwise. And, you know, and, and I'm not just talking about sex, although that too, but I know my, when my mother was a widow, the last 15 years, you know, and I would call her every day on the way to work and she would complain about the same things every day and I would suggest the same solutions every day, which she would never do every day.

• 55:26Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 55:27Bill Maher?

  But, you know, one of her problems was, you know, she just said, "I just miss the male energy around me." You know, she lived with my sister and, you know, just, there's just certain male energy that is part of...

• 55:42Bill Maher?

  What makes the world go round?

• 55:44Speaker 06

  Yeah, I mean, I could always get a male roommate one day if I wanted a roommate.

• 55:48Bill Maher?

  Well, that's not.

• 55:49Speaker 06

  I mean, that's the male energy.

• 55:52Bill Maher?

  Yeah, but if he really had male energy, then you'd wanna fuck him.

• 55:55Speaker 06

  No, necessarily.

• 55:56Bill Maher?

  And then that's not a roommate.

• 55:57Speaker 06

  Because that would mean my hormones are perfectly imbalanced and I really want something like that. And at the moment, I'm perfectly fine not being with anyone and not wanting anything.

• 56:06Bill Maher?

  What do you hang out with? I mean, you have friends there in Cape Town?

• 56:09Speaker 06

  Yeah, lots of friends.

• 56:11Bill Maher?

  That you met just when you went there?

• 56:13Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 56:14Bill Maher?

  Oh, you just met people after you got there?

• 56:16Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 56:17Bill Maher?

  So you're not lacking for a friend, like going out to dinner and that stuff?

• 56:21Speaker 06

  No, not at all.

• 56:21Bill Maher?

  Not just the black blind rhino?

• 56:24Speaker 06

  No.

• 56:25Bill Maher?

  Can I suggest a name for the black blind rhino?

• 56:28Speaker 06

  He has a name.

• 56:29Bill Maher?

  Stevie Wonder. I'm just saying, it fits.

• 56:33Bill Maher?

  Ray Charles?

• 56:34Speaker 06

  Yeah, I understand. I understand.

• 56:36Bill Maher?

  I think he'd be awesome. How did he become blind?

• 56:39Speaker 06

  Uh, territorial fights.

• 56:42Bill Maher?

  I'm sorry. I mean, no disrespect, black blind rhino, I mean Stevie Wonder. But that territorial fights over women?

• 56:52Speaker 06

  Well, yeah, that's usually.

• 56:54Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 56:54Speaker 06

  That's usually what it is.

• 56:55Bill Maher?

  So he gave up his eyes trying to get a bit?

• 56:58Speaker 06

  I mean, not purposely, but they have these big horns and when you're fighting with another big bull.

• 57:04Bill Maher?

  Right.

• 57:04Speaker 06

  You take one to the eye.

• 57:06Bill Maher?

  So normally he'd be dead by now because of course you can't survive in the wild.

• 57:10Speaker 06

  It's hard.

• 57:10Bill Maher?

  Being blind.

• 57:11Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 57:12Bill Maher?

  And, oh my god. But he's fine in your care, being blind?

• 57:16Speaker 06

  Absolutely. He's great. In fact, we've just recently realized, so there was a lot of rain. He got out of his camp into the bigger area. And we sent anti-poaching out and watched him for a little while and realized he was actually getting around pretty well. So we're starting to look at other, moving the sanctuary to another location and letting him have that space. Because we don't wanna bring other animals that could hurt him into that space. So we're gonna actually look for another piece of land now where we can build out an orphanage rehab center and some holding boas and work with like local partners.

• 57:56Bill Maher?

  I understand he says that his other senses are much more acute now.

• 58:00Speaker 06

  Yeah. That does happen.

• 58:04Bill Maher?

  I guess it does. I guess he could. I mean, my dog is blind. So like, I'm used to watching him bump into things.

• 58:10Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 58:11Bill Maher?

  I mean, he's always stumble bumming his way around, like, you know, it's okay.

• 58:15Speaker 06

  They kind of learn where things are.

• 58:16Bill Maher?

  Yeah, he has a general idea. But, but, you know, it takes maybe 10 minutes to get up the stairs or down the stairs.

• 58:24Speaker 06

  Well, yeah, that would be scary. Doing stairs blind would be scary.

• 58:28Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 58:29Speaker 06

  The rhino doesn't have stairs.

• 58:30Bill Maher?

  No, no.

• 58:33Speaker 06

  Thank goodness.

• 58:34Bill Maher?

  But that's amazing, a blind rhino.

• 58:38Speaker 06

  Have you been to South Africa?

• 58:39Bill Maher?

  I have not.

• 58:40Speaker 06

  Or any other African countries?

• 58:42Bill Maher?

  No, I'm not a great traveler.

• 58:44Speaker 06

  No.

• 58:44Bill Maher?

  And I traveled so much doing stand-up for 40 years. I just stopped doing that domestically a year and a half ago.

• 58:53Speaker 06

  So there's nowhere you wanna go?

• 58:55Bill Maher?

  No, definitely not overseas.

• 58:57Speaker 06

  Really?

• 58:57Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 58:58Speaker 06

  So you're done?

• 58:59Bill Maher?

  I'm done. Yeah.

• 59:01Speaker 06

  Okay.

• 59:01Bill Maher?

  And I was never, you know, again, I'm no marine. I was never into traveling anyplace. I mean, when I was younger, yes, I backpacked through Europe when I was 21, you know, but I wasn't, you know, the same person. The last two trips to, and these are, you know,

• 59:22Bill Maher?

  sophisticated European cities, five-star hotels, sometimes private jets. Still couldn't take it. I was just away for three days, just three days, and I feel like I went to Vietnam in 1965. I mean, I'm just not.

• 59:38Speaker 06

  Jet lag and?

• 59:39Bill Maher?

  Jet lag and, and I just don't, I need my food, not like the food that's out there. You know, I watch what I eat and I like what I eat and I feel shitty when I eat the wrong food. Even bread, I don't eat a lot of bread and like most food out there is bread and.

• 59:58Speaker 06

  What do you eat?

• 1:00:01Bill Maher?

  What am I, a black blind rhino?

• 1:00:03Speaker 06

  What should I feed you?

• 1:00:07Bill Maher?

  Weird food, you know, like I only eat two meals a day. Very often it's the same too. It's like, there's a cereal I make from different grains and seeds. You put it in a thermos overnight with hot water and it's like oatmeal.

• 1:00:21Speaker 06

  Like overnight oats?

• 1:00:22Bill Maher?

  Yeah, and then with fruit on top of that. And then I make a shake with a goat yogurt and a bunch of other stuff, some protein powder. And, you know, I think I do fine. But on the road, you know, you're just, you're just, I bring food, but, you know, you're just gonna wind up having a fucking turkey sandwich. You just are.

• 1:00:45Speaker 06

  So are those the only things you eat?

• 1:00:47Bill Maher?

  I mean, there are days when those are the only two things I eat, you know.

• 1:00:50Speaker 06

  Do you do a lot of intermittent fasting, kind of?

• 1:00:52Bill Maher?

  I do, I only have two meals because I can go until about 5 o'clock in the afternoon before. I mean, I don't get up early, but if I get up at 11 and I just drink coffee for a few hours, that's okay.

• 1:01:06Speaker 06

  Yeah, yeah, it's good.

• 1:01:08Bill Maher?

  It's great. I mean, maybe it's not great for my system, but I like it. And I do think it is good to give your system, your digestive system, a rest.

• 1:01:17Speaker 06

  Hundred percent. How do you take your coffee?

• 1:01:21Bill Maher?

  I like my coffee like when I'm with women with big tits.

• 1:01:26Bill Maher?

  I take my coffee black. I mean, a little honey.

• 1:01:29Speaker 06

  Yeah, good.

• 1:01:29Bill Maher?

  But that's it. I'm in it for the drugs. I'm not in it for the taste, you know? The taste is secondary because the high is good. I hate it when that moment in the day comes when I have to give up my high, my buzz, because I have to eat.

• 1:01:50Bill Maher?

  Because eating kills your buzz.

• 1:01:52Speaker 06

  Right.

• 1:01:52Bill Maher?

  You know?

• 1:01:53Speaker 06

  Okay.

• 1:01:53Bill Maher?

  So I had very little to eat today.

• 1:01:56Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:01:57Bill Maher?

  Because I wanted to talk to you at my best.

• 1:02:00Speaker 06

  Oh, thank you.

• 1:02:01Bill Maher?

  Hi.

• 1:02:02Speaker 06

  Hi.

• 1:02:02Bill Maher?

  Fucked up, drunk.

• 1:02:05Speaker 06

  Perfect. How I like all my guys.

• 1:02:09Bill Maher?

  You have to know yourself.

• 1:02:10Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:02:12Bill Maher?

  You know what, the, just, I mean, I never understood why people fuck after dinner. To me, it's the stupidest thing in the world to like have sex after food.

• 1:02:21Speaker 06

  Because then he might fart.

• 1:02:23Bill Maher?

  He might fart. Yes, that, that, yes. And you're just, you're just, your blood is working on the food.

• 1:02:32Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:02:32Bill Maher?

  You know, it's just, you should be light and hungry for each other. Then have food after. That makes perfect sense to me. I'm so glad I reoriented my life at some point around that and was very adamant about that.

• 1:02:49Speaker 06

  It's like, honey, I'm hungry. Let's have sex now because I gotta eat.

• 1:02:53Bill Maher?

  Exactly.

• 1:02:56Bill Maher?

  Or go right to, you know, you don't have to sex all the time. If you wanna eat, eat, but don't, but don't like eat and then fuck. That's just the dumbest thing. Your breath probably stinks. You know, you know, this way you have, fine, have onions and garlic after, not before.

• 1:03:11Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:03:12Bill Maher?

  You know, I think this is a great subject for, what, I'm telling you. Now, is it possible that in the future, after this drops and millions and millions of people enjoy this, that someone calls you up on OnlyFans? Again, I don't really know how it works, but you, I mean, there must be more people each day wanting to talk to you than you could possibly talk to.

• 1:03:38Speaker 06

  Well, I mean, I, and that, those are the relations, that's the only relationship I need are the relationships on OnlyFans that I'm building with all of these people that are, I don't, I don't need.

• 1:03:48Bill Maher?

  I'm asking about the mechanics.

• 1:03:50Speaker 06

  The mechanics.

• 1:03:51Bill Maher?

  I get it, fans. It's beautiful. I wanna know about the mechanics.

• 1:03:57Speaker 06

  Okay.

• 1:03:58Bill Maher?

  Like, there must be more people every day who wanna talk to you, right, on OnlyFans?

• 1:04:05Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:04:05Bill Maher?

  Than you could possibly talk to.

• 1:04:07Speaker 06

  Sometimes.

• 1:04:08Bill Maher?

  In a certain, in a, for a single day.

• 1:04:10Speaker 06

  Yeah, of course.

• 1:04:11Bill Maher?

  So what happens to, how do you decide, how do you triage the ones who get to talk to you? Versus the ones who don't?

• 1:04:19Speaker 06

  I have an assistant that helps me.

• 1:04:21Bill Maher?

  What's the criteria?

• 1:04:22Speaker 06

  You say that I can't do it all week. No, we try to get to everybody.

• 1:04:26Bill Maher?

  Really?

• 1:04:26Speaker 06

  Yes.

• 1:04:27Bill Maher?

  Everybody?

• 1:04:28Speaker 06

  Yes, absolutely.

• 1:04:29Bill Maher?

  How many hours can it take on a typical day?

• 1:04:33Speaker 06

  Well, that's, you know, I can't, I can't reveal all my secrets.

• 1:04:36Bill Maher?

  Really? That's a secret?

• 1:04:38Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:04:38Bill Maher?

  How many hours?

• 1:04:39Speaker 06

  Yeah, because every day is different. And, you know, and sometimes it's on the go, in the car, as I'm traveling, on the plane.

• 1:04:46Bill Maher?

  You can do it in the car?

• 1:04:48Speaker 06

  Absolutely. As long as I can get online. So if I've got cellular, then I can do it.

• 1:04:55Bill Maher?

  Okay, I mean, that's. Surprising to me. I thought it would be like, I'm thinking of the movie Her. You ever see that?

• 1:05:04Speaker 06

  The TV show?

• 1:05:05Bill Maher?

  No, no, it was a, no, it was a Spike Jonze movie with the-

• 1:05:08Speaker 06

  Oh, I don't know it.

• 1:05:10Bill Maher?

  Yeah, you probably do. It's Scarlett Johansson is the voice. It's a very ahead of its time movie. Cause it was like fifteen years ago. And now that we have AI, it is what happened. But he falls in love with his phone. He falls in love with the AI in his phone. It's Joaquin Phoenix. And Scarlett Johansson is the voice in the phone. And of course, he's very disappointed at the end because he finds out she's fucking like six thousand other guys. You know, because that's-

• 1:05:38Speaker 06

  Yeah, I mean, I don't think anyone on there thinks, for real thinks they're the only person I'm talking to, obviously, because they know how it works. But the fantasy of it is what everyone wants.

• 1:05:50Bill Maher?

  Okay, I guess that's what's so hard for me to get by. It's like, I am just not a person who has ever been satisfied with fantasy. If I can imagine it, I want to make it real.

• 1:06:04Speaker 06

  Okay.

• 1:06:05Bill Maher?

  You know?

• 1:06:05Speaker 06

  Yeah, but everyone's different.

• 1:06:08Bill Maher?

  Everyone's different. And everyone doesn't have all the wherewithal I have to do that. You know?

• 1:06:15Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:06:16Bill Maher?

  I mean, I never made it a habit back in the day to have sex with porn stars, but I've done it.

• 1:06:24Speaker 06

  Okay.

• 1:06:25Bill Maher?

  Because-

• 1:06:26Speaker 06

  Good to know.

• 1:06:27Bill Maher?

  Because it's like, you know, that's the fantasy. Like, if, if there is a gap between the fantasy and the reality, that's always gonna obsess me. Not that I always have to make what the fantasy is, or, but I have to always have to think it's possible. You know?

• 1:06:49Bill Maher?

  I can't, I used to do a bit in my act about how I could never jerk off about something that happened, like I'm watching a movie, it's about the Middle Ages. Cause I don't live in the Middle Ages. There's no realistic way I could ever be fucking this serving wench in the year 1258. You know, like, okay, I'm a jester at the castle and, you know, I'm doing good with the king and I go down to the dungeon and she's there and she's what? Like, that's not gonna happen, cause I don't live in that year. So that's impossible. I can't, I can't like fantasize about that.

• 1:07:22Speaker 06

  So this is why acting didn't really, wasn't really your thing? Like, you didn't, the acting thing?

• 1:07:26Bill Maher?

  Never my thing. It was always meant to be what I became. Because that's what I do and do uniquely, I think, is, is tell you exactly what I do think.

• 1:07:37Speaker 06

  But a lot of people like to dress up and they like to fantasize and they like to have that, you know, that out of body kind of moment, so-

• 1:07:46Bill Maher?

  Yeah, because they don't think the, they don't think reifying it is even possible. But if a genie came down and said, would you actually like to do this? Would you actually like to be with Shadow Elizabeth right now? Would you actually like to sit next to her on the couch instead of through the screen? I think they would say yes, but I could be wrong. Maybe they would be so scared and intimidated, they would be like, no, no, no. This has to stay in the realm of fantasy. That is too much of a goddess for me. I, I think that would actually be a common response now that I think about it. I think a lot of them would say, no, no, no, I would, I would be, I'd shit my pants. I, I, I would just, it's really too much.

• 1:08:23Speaker 06

  So going on and chatting with someone, it, it's, it's a way like, let's call it entertainment, passing time, the same way you watch a movie or you watch a TV show or you read a book or, you know, everybody has these, these moments in their life where they just want to unwind and relax and not think about work and not think about all the issues and the bills they have to pay. And they just want that moment. So everybody has this, this time in their life where it's like, what lets you just be and breathe and re-center yourself?

• 1:08:57Bill Maher?

  How long does the average chat take?

• 1:09:01Speaker 06

  You know, it depends, because sometimes they, they chat right away. Sometimes there's like this delay of like, they're doing something else and they come back and they go. So I try to be on for a couple hours at a time.

• 1:09:13Bill Maher?

  With one person?

• 1:09:14Speaker 06

  Well, I can't tell, like, the, the fantasy of it, I can't tell you all of like, what's happening and how I do it.

• 1:09:22Bill Maher?

  I'm sorry, I didn't-

• 1:09:22Speaker 06

  I don't wanna ruin the fantasy for everyone.

• 1:09:27Bill Maher?

  I'm so sorry that I'm so, I'm so dim about this. I don't even, I can't even understand why it's a secret. That's how, that's how removed I am. That I can't even understand, okay.

• 1:09:44Bill Maher?

  Well, as long as you're satisfying the customer.

• 1:09:47Speaker 06

  Well, hopefully, I hope so.

• 1:09:49Bill Maher?

  Well, they must be.

• 1:09:50Speaker 06

  I mean, look, it's a lot of fun. It's allowed me to get close to people in a different way. And it's allowed me to just share a part of my life that I wasn't documenting in any way.

• 1:10:00Bill Maher?

  Well, I'm not surprised it's doing well, because you do have a rare quality, which is, you know, the, the hot chick who also seems nice. You know, a lot, you, you are. I mean, you do, you do, it always came out of you that fear, that sense of, wow, I mean, she, she could be a lot uglier than this for how nice she is. You know, because a lot of times, models and those type of people, they just, you know, what they put out is a kind of a, you know, disgusted sneer at the world. I mean, models are not known to be, you know, that friendly and-

• 1:10:38Speaker 06

  I started out modeling, but-

• 1:10:40Bill Maher?

  Yeah, but-

• 1:10:40Speaker 06

  With that said, I was very shy and people thought I was a bitch because I was so shy. And I, so it actually made me start to come out of my shell and purposely try to not be shy, because I didn't know that was how I was coming across.

• 1:10:56Bill Maher?

  But you're hotter than models. I mean, models are, are amazing looking, always. I mean, they should be, actually, now nepo babies do it. I mean, even that industry got infected by nepo babyism. There are some girls, they're not ugly, but like, they wouldn't be models back in the day. I don't wanna name names, Kardashian, but, uh, they're a cute girl, but like, you know, that's, that never would have happened. They find the Naomi Campbells, you know, the people who are just like, you know, there is just something genetic going on there that's-

• 1:11:27Speaker 06

  Cindy Crawford, Led Zeppelin, yeah, supermodels.

• 1:11:32Bill Maher?

  But you have an earthy, you're just as pretty as they are, but you just have an earthiness and your body, you know, is not the model body, which is, you know, the designers are all gay, they just wanna hang her for the clothes, you know, so they never have tits, which is fine, small tits are hot too. But like, you just have a different kind of sexy earthiness that the model, I mean, models, I just look at and be like, yeah, she's pretty. It's like watching a gazelle in the wild, you know? It's, it's a beautiful thing to watch, but, you know, would I actually have a good time fucking her? Probably not.

• 1:12:03Speaker 06

  When you watch a gazelle, you're just waiting to see if they're gonna get eaten or not. You're like hoping you don't see the kill.

• 1:12:08Bill Maher?

  Well, I'm thinking the same thing with the models. No, I joke, but, uh, but you just have a different, you know, you're working a slightly different lane and I think a better one.

• 1:12:19Speaker 06

  Thank you.

• 1:12:19Bill Maher?

  You know, and I'm, well, it's true. It's true. You can see, I, I edit nothing.

• 1:12:28Speaker 06

  Thank you.

• 1:12:29Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 1:12:29Speaker 06

  So, um, I, I did bring something for you, because I did do this fundraiser on Sunday night, actually.

• 1:12:36Bill Maher?

  Wow.

• 1:12:36Speaker 06

  So, um, Rhino Rumble was away for me, cause I used to play poker. And so I brought during the World Series-

• 1:12:43Bill Maher?

  For a living?

• 1:12:44Speaker 06

  Kind of, kind of. The World Series of Poker is happening, so we did a poker tournament. Now, this is actually for your coffee. So, because coffee's very acidic and it can really wear down your bones.

• 1:12:58Bill Maher?

  Right.

• 1:12:58Speaker 06

  And, um, it's a doctor, friend of mine, Dr. Daryl Joffrey, that made this and it doesn't change the taste. So I just wanted to give you some of the products and this is minerals. So, get off your acid is his line. And, and actually, this one is for alcohol. So that, that alcohol doesn't give you a hangover and it doesn't hurt you and it doesn't change anything flavor wise, which is so amazing.

• 1:13:22Bill Maher?

  Really?

• 1:13:22Speaker 06

  So I wanted to just bring you some of his products, cause I think, this is just part of his line, but-

• 1:13:27Bill Maher?

  Well, I'm not drinking it for the flavor, anyway.

• 1:13:30Speaker 06

  But it does just help like with the acidity and how you, you know, cause you treat your body so well every other way. So this just helps it not be acidic and it keeps you alkaline and healthy.

• 1:13:41Bill Maher?

  And this is made by who? Your manager, your-

• 1:13:44Speaker 06

  No, it's a friend of mine who is a biohacking doctor.

• 1:13:48Bill Maher?

  Oh, a biohacker.

• 1:13:49Speaker 06

  And so, yeah, um, so we, we do a lot of different work together and he was one of the sponsors at my event of the, the gift bags.

• 1:13:56Bill Maher?

  Well, it looks like it's a real product, you know?

• 1:13:58Speaker 06

  It's amazing. It's amazing, so this tastes-

• 1:14:00Bill Maher?

  No, I mean, like, it's not like it was made in his basement, but it's like, it's obviously got packaging and-

• 1:14:05Speaker 06

  No, it's a, it's a, it's a huge line.

• 1:14:08Bill Maher?

  It is.

• 1:14:08Speaker 06

  This is just a few pieces from the line.

• 1:14:11Bill Maher?

  This is a huge line.

• 1:14:12Speaker 06

  Yeah, no, it's great. So Alkamine is his brand and get off your acid is the, the kind of the name of the, the products. And, um, it's all about not being acidic, cause all disease comes from acid.

• 1:14:25Bill Maher?

  Yes.

• 1:14:25Speaker 06

  Inflammation.

• 1:14:27Bill Maher?

  Yes.

• 1:14:27Speaker 06

  So this is helping you to stay alkaline.

• 1:14:30Bill Maher?

  Well, all disease comes from two things. One, either cells not getting enough of the right nutrients.

• 1:14:38Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:14:39Bill Maher?

  I mean, you can eat all day long and not get the right nutrients.

• 1:14:42Speaker 06

  Yes, or not absorb them.

• 1:14:44Bill Maher?

  Yes, or not absorb them correctly. Or toxicity that gets into the cells. It's all, you either win or lose the battle on the cellular level.

• 1:14:55Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:14:57Bill Maher?

  So, I mean, there's a lot of products like this, but, I, I mean, I'm always up for-

• 1:15:02Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:15:02Bill Maher?

  Learning a new, what do you call it?

• 1:15:05Speaker 06

  Biohacking.

• 1:15:06Bill Maher?

  Biohacking.

• 1:15:07Speaker 06

  So these are individual packets, you can travel with them. So next time you have coffee tomorrow morning, put one in your coffee. You won't taste any different, but it just helps your body, um, so that you're not acidic afterwards.

• 1:15:20Bill Maher?

  What if I need more acidic?

• 1:15:22Speaker 06

  Well, if you need more, then don't take the products, but-

• 1:15:26Bill Maher?

  Because sometimes you need acidic, because it also, acidic kills the germs and the bacteria.

• 1:15:32Speaker 06

  Well, you need your stomach acids. In fact, I have to take something to up my stomach acids, cause I have low stomach acidity. But that's different than being acidic throughout your body.

• 1:15:42Bill Maher?

  You should not, not be acidic with that throughout your body, but-

• 1:15:46Speaker 06

  Right.

• 1:15:46Bill Maher?

  What you, sometimes, I mean, sometimes, look, you can, why do people like drink cranberry juice? To kill, because maybe your urinary tract-

• 1:15:59Speaker 06

  Yeah, it helps the urinary tract.

• 1:16:00Bill Maher?

  Because it's acidic. The bugs don't live well in acidic. Bugs love the opposite.

• 1:16:08Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:16:09Bill Maher?

  Bugs love, you know, what do you call it when it's not acidic, but, uh-

• 1:16:14Speaker 06

  Well, you, you, when you go alkaline-

• 1:16:16Bill Maher?

  Alkaline.

• 1:16:17Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:16:19Speaker 06

  So you, I mean, there's a lot of-

• 1:16:21Bill Maher?

  You should have like a seven point O is right neutral. P H I'm talking about.

• 1:16:27Speaker 06

  Yes.

• 1:16:28Bill Maher?

  I think that's, I think it's seven.

• 1:16:29Speaker 06

  I think it's nine.

• 1:16:30Bill Maher?

  No, no, no, no, nine would be way too alkaline. I think seven point O is right in the middle. If you're, some people need six point five, which is a little acidic. I mean, your stomach normally, I mean, is like crazy acidic. And of course, the acidic scale, it's like, it's a factor of 10 every time. It's like earthquakes, like a seven point five earthquake is like 10 times higher than a seven point four. So your, your stomach, which is maybe like a three point something, that's crazy acidic. But it needs to be to break the food down.

• 1:17:05Speaker 06

  To break the food down, yes. But you like, if somebody that has, say, a cancer, the, what helps to kill cancer is to go alkaline.

• 1:17:14Bill Maher?

  Yes.

• 1:17:15Speaker 06

  So like I had a friend and every time she, she was fasting because of her cancer. And she said every time she wanted food, she just said, nope, I'm not going to feed the cancer cells. So I'm not going to eat that food right now.

• 1:17:28Bill Maher?

  Sugar would feed. You don't have any sugar? Or you have?

• 1:17:32Speaker 06

  I try not to.

• 1:17:33Bill Maher?

  Right.

• 1:17:33Speaker 06

  Um, I, I try to be good, but I mean, none of us are perfect.

• 1:17:37Bill Maher?

  No, and you shouldn't be. You'll resent yourself.

• 1:17:40Speaker 06

  Yeah. So, yeah, you know, I, I try to be healthy. I try to do what I can, but I take lots of supplements. Because you know, I don't eat meat. So, you know, I have to take supplements. Um, I haven't eaten meat in, I don't know, 25, 30 years.

• 1:17:58Bill Maher?

  Really?

• 1:17:58Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:17:59Bill Maher?

  Oh, wow.

• 1:18:00Speaker 06

  So, so I have to replenish somehow. Cause there's definitely, there's definitely nutrients that I, I'm not getting by not eating meat.

• 1:18:11Bill Maher?

  And the food in South Africa, not hard to get what you, I mean, it's sophisticated.

• 1:18:16Speaker 06

  Look, the South African culture is meat. It's bri, it's brying, which they, brying is our barbecue.

• 1:18:22Bill Maher?

  Brying?

• 1:18:23Speaker 06

  Yeah, they call it a bri.

• 1:18:24Bill Maher?

  Wow.

• 1:18:25Speaker 06

  Yeah. Um, so the culture is to get together with friends and do a barbecue, you know?

• 1:18:30Bill Maher?

  Really?

• 1:18:31Speaker 06

  Um, and they don't know what to do with me because I don't eat meat. But there's always sides, there's salads, there's, you know, there's a million different sides that, that people are getting better at doing. Before they would just do one simple salad, but there's a lot. And I cook, I love cooking. So, um, it's just, I don't love cooking when it's just me. But I, like, when I have friends around, I love to cook. And I love a cookbook, like, I'll just open the cookbook to a page and say, this is what I'm making tonight. And that's fun for me.

• 1:19:04Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 1:19:05Speaker 06

  So that's kind of a, a way of just not thinking about work and relaxing and just being creative. It's another form of being creative, just creative with food.

• 1:19:16Bill Maher?

  Sounds like you got it all figured out there and-

• 1:19:19Speaker 06

  Sounds like it, but I don't, but I'm trying.

• 1:19:22Bill Maher?

  What's your biggest, what would you say is your biggest problem in life?

• 1:19:27Speaker 06

  Um, honestly, for me, it's always about my charity. And it's always trying to make sure that I'm doing what I'm supposed to be doing with it and making the biggest difference possible. And I never feel like I am. So it's always figuring out who can we be helping? How can we be helping? What do I do to make it better?

• 1:19:46Bill Maher?

  Well, you're like the Mother Teresa animals. No, really. I mean, you know, you, you've foregone so many things, you know? You say you're not dating, you know, you're not, and, you know, kids, I mean, that to me is not a big sacrifice, but it would be for some people and, you know, because, you know, I don't remember the last time I saw you, but you weren't doing this. It wasn't that long ago.

• 1:20:13Speaker 06

  I think I would have had Animal Avengers maybe at that point.

• 1:20:16Bill Maher?

  Were you with Russell Simmons? Did I dream that?

• 1:20:19Speaker 06

  No, they, they wrote that online. We were friends and I think we went to an event together. So people just assumed we were dating, but we were never dating.

• 1:20:28Bill Maher?

  I was at that event.

• 1:20:29Speaker 06

  That we showed up together?

• 1:20:31Bill Maher?

  Yeah, I've, I've, I mean, I definitely thought you were together.

• 1:20:34Speaker 06

  But I, I mean, I went to an event with Enrique Iglesias and then people said we were dating and we weren't. So you go to one event with somebody and suddenly you're like married to them.

• 1:20:43Bill Maher?

  Did you ever date a celebrity?

• 1:20:44Speaker 06

  Have I?

• 1:20:44Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 1:20:46Speaker 06

  Uh, not like, well, I mean, somebody that kind of became a celebrity maybe, but-

• 1:20:52Bill Maher?

  Who?

• 1:20:53Speaker 06

  Well, I mean, I, I went out with Derek Hough for three years, but it was right in the beginning of him starting to do Dancing with the Stars.

• 1:21:00Bill Maher?

  Oh, Dancing with the Stars.

• 1:21:02Speaker 06

  Yeah. So he's, he's quite well known now.

• 1:21:05Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 1:21:06Speaker 06

  He's, he's-

• 1:21:06Bill Maher?

  I know he is now, now that you mention it. I think he hosts like, whatever that show is that comes on before TMZ.

• 1:21:17Speaker 06

  Oh, I don't know.

• 1:21:18Bill Maher?

  No.

• 1:21:18Speaker 06

  I'm so out of the loop because I'm overseas.

• 1:21:21Bill Maher?

  You don't get American TV there? No, none?

• 1:21:24Speaker 06

  None.

• 1:21:25Bill Maher?

  What a, what a travesty.

• 1:21:26Speaker 06

  I know. I know, I don't, I don't, I mean, I'll have some streaming platforms and I'll try to watch things on there, but-

• 1:21:33Bill Maher?

  Oh, yeah, of course, you must have all that, but-

• 1:21:35Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:21:36Bill Maher?

  Right, you don't get that. Well, you know what? You're not missing a lot. I mean, we got our problems over here.

• 1:21:42Speaker 06

  Everywhere has problems.

• 1:21:43Bill Maher?

  Exactly. I mean, I was in the supermarket last night. I go about once a year.

• 1:21:48Speaker 06

  Really? Which, which one do you go to?

• 1:21:50Bill Maher?

  I went to pavilions out here.

• 1:21:52Speaker 06

  Really?

• 1:21:52Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 1:21:53Speaker 06

  Okay.

• 1:21:54Bill Maher?

  And, uh, my girl and I about-

• 1:21:58Speaker 06

  So you do have a girl?

• 1:22:01Bill Maher?

  Well-

• 1:22:01Speaker 06

  You said before you were single.

• 1:22:03Bill Maher?

  Well, it's not, it's not harsh, the words.

• 1:22:09Speaker 06

  He has a girl, okay.

• 1:22:11Bill Maher?

  Anyway, we went to pavilions about nine o'clock at night. There's hardly anybody there. And I felt like one of those soccer players, you know, we've had the World Cup here.

• 1:22:22Speaker 06

  Yes.

• 1:22:22Bill Maher?

  And all-

• 1:22:23Speaker 06

  What's that? No, I'm joking.

• 1:22:25Bill Maher?

  I'm the one should ask that. I'm not into soccer at all. But like, there's all these videos online of these people from all over the world who have come to the World Cup and they're just blown away by America. You know, we take it for granted, there's such Debbie Downerism here. But when people come who don't live here, and I'm not talking about people from shithole countries. I'm talking about people from regular countries, big boy countries. And they come here and they're just blown away. And I felt like one of them last night, cause I don't go to the market very much. And I was just like, oh my God, blimey. This is a whole aisle of cheese here.

• 1:23:06Bill Maher?

  You know, and there is this like, oh my, everything was just like amazing to me. I was like the, the mermaid from Splash, you know, I, and I, I, I only use Apple Pay like once a year. So I barely knew how to use my phone to get out of the checkout line and-

• 1:23:22Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:23:22Bill Maher?

  You know, the-

• 1:23:23Speaker 06

  I feel the same going to grocery stores actually here because I only go over there. So when I come back here, I'm like, look at all these new products and these things I've never seen, like it's amazing.

• 1:23:33Bill Maher?

  There's like a million choices for everything.

• 1:23:35Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:23:36Bill Maher?

  You know, I just want salad dressing and it's like, you know, do you want it, you know, with vodka in it?

• 1:23:43Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:23:44Bill Maher?

  I'm like, then we got that too.

• 1:23:46Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:23:46Bill Maher?

  It's just, it's just this bounty. And it's all like so well organized and, and-

• 1:23:51Speaker 06

  Colorful.

• 1:23:52Bill Maher?

  And you also understand why Americans are fat. Because there's like a giant section of cakes and shit and-

• 1:24:00Speaker 06

  Bread.

• 1:24:00Bill Maher?

  Breads and, you know, it's just, it's just, uh-

• 1:24:05Speaker 06

  Yeah, but the breads here, this is the problem. The breads here and the breads overseas are very different because of the flour.

• 1:24:11Bill Maher?

  Right.

• 1:24:11Speaker 06

  Cause like they, we take, we take away the one protein in the flour that digests the gluten. Like, why are we taking that away? That's why we can't eat here.

• 1:24:22Bill Maher?

  That's why we do everything, money. Because it's, for some, I can't explain it to you, but for some reason it was cheaper.

• 1:24:29Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:24:29Bill Maher?

  I mean, you know, why is there only one kind of banana? There used to be many, many, many kinds of bananas.

• 1:24:35Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:24:35Bill Maher?

  But they find, oh, but this will save us five cents every time someone buys a banana. So fuck bananas.

• 1:24:41Speaker 06

  Yeah. And things start tasting like water if they're like-

• 1:24:44Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 1:24:44Speaker 06

  Not grown, like a little farmer, yeah.

• 1:24:47Bill Maher?

  They'd rather grow it tomato. Pick it when it's green, shoot it would die to make it look like tomato.

• 1:24:53Speaker 06

  Yeah.

• 1:24:54Bill Maher?

  Than to actually give you a real tomato.

• 1:24:55Speaker 06

  A real good farmer's market tomato.

• 1:24:57Bill Maher?

  I grow tomatoes right over there.

• 1:24:59Speaker 06

  Do you?

• 1:25:00Bill Maher?

  Like, like 10 feet away from where we're sitting.

• 1:25:03Speaker 06

  Okay.

• 1:25:03Bill Maher?

  There's a garden and I'm gonna get my-

• 1:25:05Speaker 06

  Oh, that's why you don't have to go to the grocery store.

• 1:25:07Bill Maher?

  Well, that's not why, because I'm rich and have a sister.

• 1:25:10Speaker 06

  But how do tomatoes work in your smoothies?

• 1:25:12Bill Maher?

  I don't put them in my smoothie.

• 1:25:14Speaker 06

  You didn't say you ate anything that has tomatoes.

• 1:25:17Bill Maher?

  No, I actually eat a tomato like, just like I would eat an apple.

• 1:25:21Speaker 06

  Oh, really?

• 1:25:22Bill Maher?

  When I make the smoothie, because there's avocado in the smoothie.

• 1:25:27Speaker 06

  Yum, yum.

• 1:25:28Bill Maher?

  An avocado plus tomato equals-

• 1:25:32Speaker 06

  Guacamole.

• 1:25:33Bill Maher?

  Thank you. I, I was on the tip of my tongue and you saved me, Shannon Elizabeth.

• 1:25:38Speaker 06

  I love guacamole.

• 1:25:40Bill Maher?

  Okay.

• 1:25:40Speaker 06

  I love making it.

• 1:25:41Bill Maher?

  And someone told me, I say someone, a doctor, okay, a doctor, told me that she might, she never sees, uh, Hispanic patients who have prostate cancer.

• 1:25:54Speaker 06

  Oh, interesting.

• 1:25:55Bill Maher?

  And she, and she theorizes it's because of the guacamole. So I don't like guacamole, but if I eat, uh-

• 1:26:01Speaker 06

  What?

• 1:26:02Bill Maher?

  If I eat a tomato with the-

• 1:26:05Speaker 06

  Avocado?

• 1:26:05Bill Maher?

  In the shake, then I'm kind of getting it.

• 1:26:09Speaker 06

  Oh, yes, true, true.

• 1:26:10Bill Maher?

  Right. So I'm, I'm, I'm gonna get, I'm never gonna get-

• 1:26:14Speaker 06

  But maybe it's the onion or the lime juice or the garlic salt.

• 1:26:19Bill Maher?

  I, well, I'm gonna say it's, it's, I'm getting an honorary pass on not getting Hispanic cancer. That's what I'm gonna say. They, they don't get cancer because of the guacamole and I am simulating guacamole.

• 1:26:31Speaker 06

  Yes.

• 1:26:31Bill Maher?

  Each time I have a-

• 1:26:32Speaker 06

  As long as it all mixes down there.

• 1:26:34Bill Maher?

  As long as it all mixes down there.

• 1:26:36Speaker 06

  Yeah, I love guacamole.

• 1:26:38Bill Maher?

  I love that you came here to talk to me. I know it's off your beaten path.

• 1:26:43Speaker 06

  No, I love that you had me here.

• 1:26:45Bill Maher?

  Yeah, I am thrilled that we got to do this. And someday you will tell me all the secrets of your OnlyFans that I'm only beginning to understand.

• 1:26:55Speaker 06

  Maybe you should just come on.

• 1:26:57Bill Maher?

  Come on.

• 1:26:58Speaker 06

  Come on to my-

• 1:26:59Bill Maher?

  They have Only guests?

• 1:27:01Speaker 06

  Well, no, just pretend you're one of my fans and come on and-

• 1:27:05Bill Maher?

  Oh, I see.

• 1:27:06Speaker 06

  And then you'll see how it all works.

• 1:27:08Bill Maher?

  Oh, I see. Yeah, that can't happen.

• 1:27:15Speaker 06

  Thank you so much for having me.

• 1:27:16Bill Maher?

  That was so much fun.

• 1:27:17Speaker 06

  It was so fun, thank you. And thank you for all your animal advocacy.

• 1:27:21Bill Maher?

  Yes, thank you.

• 1:27:22Speaker 06

  It really means everything.

• 1:27:23Bill Maher?

  You're the one who's doing it much more than I am and-

• 1:27:26Speaker 06

  It all matters.

• 1:27:31Bill Maher?

  We make Tomcats 2?

• 1:27:32Speaker 06

  Yeah, oh boy, hell's gonna freeze over when we make that, I think.

• 1:27:41Speaker 03
