Roseanne Barr | Club Random Classics with Bill Maher

On this month's Club Random Classics, Bill welcomes Roseanne Barr for a conversation about whether jokes can save humanity, how Joe Rogan’s doctor helped her, and what her kids won’t forgive her for. Roseanne and Bill revisit their battle at the Playboy Mansion, talk about the comedians who spoke their minds, and do their impressions of George Burns and Gracie Allen. They also get into Pharaohs and inbreeding, Roseanne’s wild pig problem in Hawaii, her pyramid of power, the beauty of Kabbalah, a childhood accident, singleton and multiple personalities, and their interpretations of the Bible.

Visit https://podcastchoices.com/adchoices ABOUT CLUB RANDOM In Club Random, Bill Maher unleashes his comedic wit on an unpredictable lineup – from Bill Burr and Jerry Seinfeld to Quentin Tarantino and Neil deGrasse Tyson – digging into everything but politics. It’s Maher in his familiar element: one-on-one vibes, unfiltered laughs, and the kind of freewheeling banter only he can deliver. ABOUT BILL MAHER Bill Maher was the host of “Politically Incorrect” (Comedy Central, ABC) from 1993-2002, and for the last 23 years on HBO’s “Real Time,” Maher’s combination of unflinching honesty and big laughs have garnered him 41 Emmy nominations. Maher won his first Emmy in 2014 as executive producer for the HBO series, “VICE.” In October of 2008, this same combination was on display in Maher’s uproarious and unprecedented swipe at organized religion, “Religulous.” Maher has written six bestsellers: “True Story,” “Does Anybody Have a Problem with That? Politically Incorrect’s Greatest Hits,” “When You Ride Alone, You Ride with Bin Laden,” “New Rules: Polite Musings from a Timid Observer,” “The New New Rules: A Funny Look at How Everybody But Me Has Their Head Up Their Ass", and most recently "What This Comedian Said Will Shock You".

  Well, this week's Club Random Classic is Roseanne Barr. And when Roseanne comes over, you don't really have a conversation. You just grab the wheel and hope the car stays on the road. We cover everything from comedy and religion to Kabbalah, Joe Rogan, lizard people, wild pigs in a fistfight she says we added to Playboy Mansion that I apparently blocked out. Roseanne and I disagree about almost everything loudly and still manage to laugh through the whole thing. Remember when people could do that? Well, check out this Club Random Classic with Roseanne.

• 1:59Bill Maher?

  Hey!

• 2:02Bill Maher?

  Look at you.

• 2:03Speaker 03

  Look at you. Look at you, honey.

• 2:06Bill Maher?

  You look like a southern belle.

• 2:07Speaker 03

  I do. I live in Texas.

• 2:10Bill Maher?

  I think you lived in Hawaii.

• 2:11Speaker 03

  I do. I live in both.

• 2:13Bill Maher?

  Excuse me?

• 2:14Speaker 03

  One blue, one red.

• 2:15Bill Maher?

  Right.

• 2:16Speaker 03

  One foot in each, bitches.

• 2:21Bill Maher?

  I see you're all warmed up.

• 2:22Speaker 03

  I am. I'm ready for you, but you ain't ready for me.

• 2:25Bill Maher?

  That has always been true. Well, I mean...

• 2:29Speaker 03

  But I love you.

• 2:30Bill Maher?

  I love you too, because you're...

• 2:32Speaker 03

  Did we start?

• 2:33Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 2:33Speaker 03

  While we're on the air?

• 2:35Bill Maher?

  Well, I would hardly call it the air.

• 2:38Speaker 03

  Whatever. We're a broadcast?

• 2:41Bill Maher?

  You don't know that. It doesn't matter.

• 2:43Speaker 03

  I don't know.

• 2:43Bill Maher?

  The point of this show is that is exact the conversation that we would have if we weren't on the air, and it will be.

• 2:50Speaker 03

  But we are.

• 2:50Bill Maher?

  But, and that's one of the greatest things about you is that unlike most people in this world...

• 2:56Speaker 03

  Do your dirty hands... Did you wash your dirty hands before you stick them in the ice? Because I have a thing about germs.

• 3:02Bill Maher?

  You know what? You want me to get a whole bunch of new ice?

• 3:05Speaker 03

  If you say you washed your hands after you peed, I'm gonna accept your apology.

• 3:11Bill Maher?

  All right.

• 3:14Bill Maher?

  Also, I have the ice specially treated with a chemical that kills my...

• 3:18Speaker 03

  I bet you did it Monsanto derived.

• 3:21Bill Maher?

  That kills my pee, should I do that?

• 3:23Speaker 03

  I bet you did. You're all pro-chemical and pro-Monsanto and all that crazy shit.

• 3:28Bill Maher?

  I think so not. You know that.

• 3:30Speaker 03

  Are you shit me... The shit you say drives me berserk.

• 3:34Bill Maher?

  Okay, I have a... You can attack me in many things.

• 3:37Speaker 03

  No, I'm not gonna attack you. I'm just conversing.

• 3:40Bill Maher?

  I know, but I wanna...

• 3:42Speaker 03

  No, no, give me your hand.

• 3:43Bill Maher?

  But I need to straighten you out on something.

• 3:44Speaker 03

  Straighten me?

• 3:45Bill Maher?

  Yes, because you...

• 3:46Speaker 03

  Bitch, you don't even know. Now you won't straighten me out. I'm 70.

• 3:50Bill Maher?

  If I want it...

• 3:51Speaker 03

  No, put your hand down right there. Do it.

• 3:54Bill Maher?

  No.

• 3:54Speaker 03

  Put your hand there.

• 3:55Bill Maher?

  Why? What are you gonna do?

• 3:56Speaker 03

  I'm gonna cover it with mine and I'm gonna tell you that I love you.

• 4:01Bill Maher?

  Wow, what a 180 that was.

• 4:04Speaker 03

  I love you and I don't want to hurt you.

• 4:07Bill Maher?

  I love you too.

• 4:07Speaker 03

  Leave your fucking hand there. I washed mine.

• 4:10Bill Maher?

  Oh, that's right.

• 4:11Speaker 03

  Listen, I love you and I want to bring everybody together to see they're getting screwed and robbed. Okay, now, are we on the same page with that?

• 4:23Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 4:24Speaker 03

  Okay, now let's talk.

• 4:26Bill Maher?

  All right.

• 4:28Bill Maher?

  I have a lot of videotape that if I wanted to go into the archives, I could send you where I, pretty much alone in media, was questioning the pharmaceutical industry and people like Monsanto. I was early part of the century with the...

• 4:43Speaker 03

  I know you were.

• 4:44Bill Maher?

  Yeah, so I'm not the guy to hit that hit with the...

• 4:47Speaker 03

  I'm not hitting you with nothing.

• 4:48Bill Maher?

  You're for Monsanto.

• 4:49Speaker 03

  But what about the vaccine shit?

• 4:51Bill Maher?

  And I've been way out on the limb on that one too.

• 4:54Speaker 03

  You were wrong.

• 4:56Bill Maher?

  I don't know which... I don't know what your stance on vaccines is, so why don't you tell me yours and I'll tell you mine and we'll see who's wrong.

• 5:03Speaker 03

  They're trying to fucking kill us.

• 5:05Bill Maher?

  They're trying to?

• 5:07Speaker 03

  Yeah, that's why they're giving us the vaccines.

• 5:09Bill Maher?

  I don't think they're trying.

• 5:10Speaker 03

  Well, they are killing us.

• 5:13Bill Maher?

  Well, it's much more complicated...

• 5:14Speaker 03

  They hate us.

• 5:16Bill Maher?

  Who hates us? The pharmaceutical industry? No, actually...

• 5:19Speaker 03

  The fucking crazy-ass psychopath billionaires. They hate the regular people.

• 5:24Bill Maher?

  Okay, Bernie.

• 5:28Bill Maher?

  So, but you're not one of the regular people. Look at you. You're a southern belle. You're like in a Tennessee Williams play and you're the...

• 5:37Speaker 03

  I've always depended on the kindness of strangers.

• 5:40Bill Maher?

  Right. Look, you could play that today.

• 5:43Speaker 03

  I kinda am.

• 5:43Bill Maher?

  You could still be Blanche Dubois.

• 5:45Speaker 03

  I love that character.

• 5:47Bill Maher?

  I'm sure...

• 5:47Speaker 03

  What a writer.

• 5:48Bill Maher?

  You know that nobody under like 50 knows who Tennessee Williams is.

• 5:52Speaker 03

  I know. It's sad, huh?

• 5:53Bill Maher?

  It is very sad.

• 5:54Speaker 03

  What about our age? It's so horrible because...

• 5:56Bill Maher?

  So horrible.

• 5:57Speaker 03

  The references, nobody gets the... I told my daughter and I was talking about Lenny Bruce and she goes, "I swear to God," and I have to recreate it. Wait, who's that?

• 6:10Bill Maher?

  How old is she?

• 6:12Speaker 03

  34.

• 6:13Bill Maher?

  34. Well, I must say, Lenny Bruce was even before my time. What?

• 6:18Speaker 03

  Really?

• 6:19Bill Maher?

  Yeah, oh, definitely. 67.

• 6:22Speaker 03

  You're only three years younger than me.

• 6:23Bill Maher?

  Lenny Bruce died, I think, in 1969? But I don't... I think it could have been 66, something like that.

• 6:31Speaker 03

  I think it was 69.

• 6:33Bill Maher?

  Okay, but I don't think he had been working. He'd been...

• 6:35Speaker 03

  No, he hadn't been working.

• 6:36Bill Maher?

  Okay, so like... He was not somebody as a kid I would see on Ed Sullivan, you know?

• 6:41Speaker 03

  No.

• 6:42Bill Maher?

  Or, you know, Merv Griffin or something. So he was just this... But because I was a kid interested in comedy, he was... I knew he was a comedy god and, you know, Lenny Bruce, you know, they had talked about him like that, other comics. But when I actually went to listen, it reminded me that comedy does not really pass through the ages very well. It's...

• 7:03Speaker 03

  Oh, it does, though. I disagree.

• 7:06Bill Maher?

  Some of it, it's...

• 7:06Speaker 03

  Okay, Lenny Bruce, okay. Getting real, real, and let's have another swig so we can relax.

• 7:13Bill Maher?

  I'm all for that, sister.

• 7:17Speaker 03

  That sounds like my Uncle Frank.

• 7:19Bill Maher?

  Do my Big Daddy impression.

• 7:21Speaker 03

  Okay.

• 7:23Bill Maher?

  Okay, she says, yes.

• 7:25Speaker 03

  Let's see it.

• 7:27Bill Maher?

  So how is... So what... Now, you live in what part of Texas?

• 7:31Speaker 03

  I live in the... Outside of, what's it called?

• 7:35Bill Maher?

  Houston.

• 7:36Speaker 03

  What's that fucking town? Austin.

• 7:37Bill Maher?

  Austin.

• 7:38Speaker 03

  About an hour out of there in the hills.

• 7:40Bill Maher?

  My God, I was just there.

• 7:42Speaker 03

  How much do you love it there?

• 7:45Bill Maher?

  Percentage-wise, I do like Austin. I do. Everybody likes Austin.

• 7:50Speaker 03

  Did you go to Joe's Club?

• 7:51Bill Maher?

  No, I didn't. I did his podcast, but then I had to do a show that night and, you know, I had to go to Dallas the next day, so, you know, I mean...

• 8:01Speaker 03

  You should have went to the club.

• 8:02Bill Maher?

  Well...

• 8:03Speaker 03

  They got Mitzi's Room in there. He made a whole bar for Mitzi.

• 8:06Bill Maher?

  Oh, I know. Mitzi's Room?

• 8:07Speaker 03

  He's got Mitzi's Room. The bar's called Mitzi's Room. And there's a picture of Mitzi with a table. It's like Mitzi's spirit lives on there and it's like everyone is trying new shit, real offensive out there shit.

• 8:22Bill Maher?

  Really? Yeah, good.

• 8:23Speaker 03

  And I love it. And the audience is like eating it up even though they're blue. They're blue voters, but they have open minds. And I'm saying my worst Democrat jokes and they're loving it.

• 8:35Bill Maher?

  That's one reason I love places that are cities in red states because you get a mix of both things and the country, I think, does need both things.

• 8:44Speaker 03

  Absolutely.

• 8:45Bill Maher?

  So, you know, yeah, you go to Charlotte or someplace like that and it's like, yeah, you're in North Carolina, but it's a very blue city. But it's not so blue that they got the stick up their ass. You know what I mean? I think one thing we both don't like is people with a stick up their ass.

• 9:02Speaker 03

  Okay, it's like blue mixed with red, commie, equals purple. You know what I'm saying, Bill, with the hair and the whole thing? It's beyond blue. It's the next step towards Stalinist.

• 9:18Bill Maher?

  Wait, what is... What are we talking about?

• 9:20Speaker 03

  Well, I have to get my cigs. Where's my fucking cigarettes? Did I forget my cigarettes? I have to go get my cigarettes.

• 9:28Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 9:28Speaker 03

  Okay, they're over there. I'll be right back.

• 9:31Bill Maher?

  Yeah. We have cameras that will follow you all over the room.

• 9:34Speaker 03

  Oh, good. I'm gonna take a leak too.

• 9:37Bill Maher?

  A leak?

• 9:38Speaker 03

  No, I'm kidding.

• 9:40Bill Maher?

  I mean, if you have to. So you're moving pretty good for 70.

• 9:44Speaker 03

  Yeah, because I went to Joe Rogan's doctor and they hyped me up on all this testosterone.

• 9:50Bill Maher?

  No.

• 9:50Speaker 03

  And it's changed my life, for real.

• 9:53Bill Maher?

  Are you fucking with me?

• 9:54Speaker 03

  No, I ain't.

• 9:55Bill Maher?

  Because I know Joe is a big proponent...

• 9:58Speaker 03

  I know.

• 9:58Bill Maher?

  ...of that. We had that discussion once on his show and I am of the school that... I wouldn't do it because if you do have cancer cells in your body, it can accelerate their growth. And we all do have some cancer cells, you know? We all have something... Everything bad, we all...

• 10:17Speaker 03

  Fuck cancer.

• 10:19Bill Maher?

  She says it. She lights the cigarette. Yes.

• 10:21Speaker 03

  Don't underscore my jokes.

• 10:24Bill Maher?

  You're right. You're right.

• 10:25Speaker 03

  But you got it at least. Half of my life, nobody gets what I'm saying if it's a joke or serious or what.

• 10:32Bill Maher?

  Really? Your boyfriend doesn't get you? Of course. How could you be with him for that long if he didn't love every, you know, joke you make? I mean, it's...

• 10:40Speaker 03

  He gets 70%.

• 10:45Bill Maher?

  I guess that's all you can expect from a man, huh?

• 10:47Speaker 03

  It's the most I've ever had from any guy.

• 10:49Bill Maher?

  70%?

• 10:50Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 10:52Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 10:52Speaker 03

  But my sons.

• 10:53Bill Maher?

  I'll take seventy.

• 10:54Speaker 03

  Look, my sons, though, they get ninety.

• 10:58Bill Maher?

  Ninety?

• 10:58Speaker 03

  Yeah, they get my shit ninety percent.

• 11:01Bill Maher?

  No.

• 11:02Speaker 03

  You know who else gets my shit ninety percent? He even gets it ninety-eight percent.

• 11:07Bill Maher?

  Oh, who?

• 11:08Speaker 03

  Tony Hinchcliffe, that fucker.

• 11:10Bill Maher?

  Who?

• 11:10Speaker 03

  The comedy assassin, I call him.

• 11:13Bill Maher?

  Tony?

• 11:13Speaker 03

  Tony Hinchcliffe.

• 11:14Bill Maher?

  Don't know him.

• 11:15Speaker 03

  That does that, that podcast, Kill Tony.

• 11:18Bill Maher?

  Oh, I don't know.

• 11:19Speaker 03

  It's so fun, Bill, you gotta watch that.

• 11:21Bill Maher?

  I will.

• 11:21Speaker 03

  He brings on new comics, which is why I like it, cuz it's Mitzi-like, you know? These people come up and they audition for one minute, they got their, you know, like we used to do for five. And so, and then we get to judge them.

• 11:36Speaker 03

  You know, and he roasts them like a, like they put them on a spittle, and he just likes to see the fat drip off them, you know? But then I don't wanna do that cuz I'm so rich and glamorous and famous, it wouldn't be right.

• 11:49Bill Maher?

  It wouldn't be right, no, it's true.

• 11:51Speaker 03

  I just try to encourage them, and, you know, say what I think they could correct, cuz that's more motherly, right? So, but it's a fucking blast, and you should be on there as a judge.

• 12:07Bill Maher?

  Well, now that I got the.

• 12:09Speaker 03

  It's the number one podcast behind Rogan.

• 12:11Bill Maher?

  Well, I mean, I'm glad you're edifying me on, on all this.

• 12:15Speaker 03

  I know you've gotta get hipper, Bill.

• 12:21Speaker 03

  Thank you.

• 12:25Speaker 03

  Our whole generation is all fucked up and crazy and lazy.

• 12:30Bill Maher?

  Which one, ours or that?

• 12:31Speaker 03

  Yeah, ours, we're all fucking mentally deranged.

• 12:34Bill Maher?

  We're not nearly as mentally deranged or as lazy as the kids.

• 12:38Speaker 03

  That's true.

• 12:39Bill Maher?

  Okay, I'm glad we agree on that.

• 12:40Speaker 03

  That's a great point. They're deranged, they're fucking beyond deranged. Well, they don't take care of their kids, and that pisses me off.

• 12:50Bill Maher?

  We're two generations into the rot, really, in society, because they just, it's not the kids' fault, they were just raised wrong. Everybody raises their kids a little wronger, and then you get to this where there's like.

• 13:03Speaker 03

  Talk about.

• 13:03Bill Maher?

  There's just no boundaries.

• 13:05Speaker 03

  No, it's all fucking bitterness and recriminations. There's no fucking forgiveness, no matter how much money you give the bastards. That's what I've found.

• 13:18Bill Maher?

  With kids, your kids?

• 13:20Speaker 03

  Yeah, they never will forgive me, ever, no matter I buy them a fucking house, they don't forgive me.

• 13:26Bill Maher?

  For what?

• 13:27Speaker 03

  For the fucking years of fame that I put them through. That's what they say.

• 13:33Bill Maher?

  Really?

• 13:33Speaker 03

  Yeah, they're all libtards, my daughters are all libtards, but thank God I have two sons that are patriots of this country.

• 13:44Bill Maher?

  I remember when you were a socialist.

• 13:46Speaker 03

  I still am, that's what's so funny.

• 13:49Bill Maher?

  You're like a socialist Nazi, it's, it's an interesting.

• 13:53Speaker 03

  I'm not a Nazi.

• 13:54Bill Maher?

  I'm kidding.

• 13:55Speaker 03

  Remember when me and yous got in that fistfight at the Playboy Mansion?

• 14:01Bill Maher?

  Fistfight at the Playboy Mansion, you'd think I would remember a thing like that.

• 14:05Speaker 03

  Right, by the aviary there?

• 14:07Bill Maher?

  The aviary, yeah, the, the zoo in the back?

• 14:10Speaker 03

  Yeah, when we were both drunk and all fucked up. You called me something and I called you something, you remember that?

• 14:18Bill Maher?

  I, I don't, I don't, but I'm not denying it. In fact, I love that it happened.

• 14:23Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 14:24Bill Maher?

  I love that I got into a fistfight with Roseanne.

• 14:27Speaker 03

  I socked you right in the jaw, and you hit me back.

• 14:32Bill Maher?

  No, I didn't.

• 14:33Speaker 03

  I always hit men first to see if they'll hit me back. Yeah, you did, right in the shoulder.

• 14:38Bill Maher?

  No wonder I don't remember this.

• 14:39Speaker 03

  No shit, you blocked it out, MKUltra.

• 14:44Bill Maher?

  Who's that?

• 14:46Speaker 03

  That's the mind control program you're under, Bill.

• 14:49Bill Maher?

  MKUltra?

• 14:50Speaker 03

  Yeah, MKUltra mind control.

• 14:52Bill Maher?

  Are you kidding me now, or do you really think I'm under a mind control program?

• 14:55Speaker 03

  I do.

• 14:56Bill Maher?

  Is there a conspiracy theory you don't believe?

• 14:58Speaker 03

  No, I'm telling you, I tell the truth, everything I say, people like you is always laughing at me, and then it comes true, and you never go, I'm sorry, I made fun of you, Roseanne, you was right. How come you never say that, Bill?

• 15:12Bill Maher?

  Because.

• 15:13Speaker 03

  I'm always right.

• 15:14Bill Maher?

  You're not always right.

• 15:15Speaker 03

  I am so.

• 15:17Bill Maher?

  You have some, I mean, I don't know, well, by your own admission, remember.

• 15:23Speaker 03

  You're gonna say I'm mentally ill, which I say, I am.

• 15:26Bill Maher?

  Well, then why are we having this discussion?

• 15:29Speaker 03

  Because you have to listen to the mentally ill, as the Zohar says.

• 15:33Bill Maher?

  Well, that's a circular argument.

• 15:35Speaker 03

  As the Zohar says, in these days.

• 15:38Bill Maher?

  Zohar?

• 15:38Speaker 03

  The Zohar, the holy Jewish.

• 15:40Bill Maher?

  Who's that?

• 15:40Speaker 03

  The holy Jewish.

• 15:42Bill Maher?

  Is that the thing in Big where he goes, makes?

• 15:46Speaker 03

  Yeah, but in reality.

• 15:47Bill Maher?

  Really, you believe in that?

• 15:49Speaker 03

  Of course, I've read it, you should read it.

• 15:51Bill Maher?

  The thing in the movie Big?

• 15:54Speaker 03

  Sorta, all, all, but they make it a cult, and they put it in their movies, cuz they're Satan worshippers.

• 16:00Bill Maher?

  Zohar a cult?

• 16:01Speaker 03

  No, they're Satan, they're Satan worshippers from Babylon, they're, they're the reptiles.

• 16:06Bill Maher?

  Long Island?

• 16:07Speaker 03

  No, they're the reptile people, Bill.

• 16:10Bill Maher?

  Oh, the lizard people.

• 16:11Speaker 03

  Yeah, the reptiles.

• 16:12Bill Maher?

  I know that QAnon especially believes that there are a lot, a lot of the world's elite. Queen Elizabeth was a lizard person, George Bush, George W. Bush was a, there are people who are, you know, they normally, when we see them, they're out there in a suit and tie, and they're speaking.

• 16:33Speaker 03

  No, it's not that.

• 16:35Bill Maher?

  Lizard, they're actually, and once in a while you catch them, a blurry photograph of someone, and you just, you know, the.

• 16:42Speaker 03

  I don't believe all that.

• 16:43Bill Maher?

  Oh, no.

• 16:44Speaker 03

  But I believe that something affects you after thousands of years of inbreeding.

• 16:50Bill Maher?

  Well, I don't think, I don't think you could endure thousands of years.

• 16:54Speaker 03

  Well, you know how they used to make a king in, in, in the old world, you know, the world of pharaohs?

• 17:03Bill Maher?

  Egypt.

• 17:04Speaker 03

  Yeah, Egypt and before Egypt, it used to come from a brother and a sister mating. How you make a, a royal prince or a king.

• 17:14Bill Maher?

  The pharaohs were victims of inbreeding, that is true.

• 17:17Speaker 03

  Yeah, right, so it went on for hundreds of, hundreds of centuries.

• 17:23Bill Maher?

  Right.

• 17:24Speaker 03

  So that DNA thing is different from other humans, except the Jews, which also inbred. No, I'm kidding, and so do people in Kentucky, that was my joke, but no, the pharaohs and that line, they're really super inbred with their DNA.

• 17:45Bill Maher?

  Yes, they were.

• 17:46Speaker 03

  Right.

• 17:46Bill Maher?

  That's true, and, and it, of course, drives you mad, and makes you, like, have a shittier immune system, you know, you're susceptible.

• 17:56Speaker 03

  And psychopathology, I think, cuz they think they can, like, decide how many millions of people will die next year, and the stocks will go up.

• 18:04Bill Maher?

  That's why I think people are generally attracted to people who don't look like them, I know that's true in my case. You know, I mean, I'm Irish, fair-skinned, that's like the one type I don't like.

• 18:18Speaker 03

  Ha, ha, yeah, that's true.

• 18:21Bill Maher?

  You know what I mean? And I think that's because my DNA is saying, you know, mate with this one, because it's less likely the kids will come out.

• 18:31Speaker 03

  Like you?

• 18:38Bill Maher?

  You still got it, you still got it.

• 18:41Speaker 03

  I'm loving that I still got it.

• 18:42Bill Maher?

  You still got it, totally.

• 18:44Speaker 03

  I'm going on stage there at Joe's, it's so fun, I love it.

• 18:49Bill Maher?

  You got a lot of nutty ideas, but you're not nuts, that's, I know that sounds like a distinction, that's a difference, but I swear to God, it's meaningful. I find it very ironic that you raise nuts.

• 19:01Speaker 03

  Yeah, in Hawaii, macadamia nuts are the perfect protein in the world.

• 19:06Bill Maher?

  Of all the things to pick.

• 19:07Speaker 03

  Because it's the perfect protein for the world.

• 19:10Bill Maher?

  Why nuts?

• 19:11Speaker 03

  Because it could solve world hunger in ten minutes, you know, I think deeply about these things, Bill, they're not a joke to me.

• 19:17Bill Maher?

  What is it about nuts that spoke to you, when you were thinking about raising them?

• 19:23Speaker 03

  Okay, I'm telling you, fool, listen up, listen up here, because of the macadamia, I bought it, I bought my farm sight unseen, because it was a, a farm that had several thousand macadamia nut trees.

• 19:42Bill Maher?

  Right.

• 19:42Speaker 03

  And I was intrigued, once I read that, well, cuz my son's kinda, it, it all goes back to my son having severe learning disabilities, and they had a school in Hawaii, so I sent him there, and so I bought a farm so I could be by my son, and that's where it comes from.

• 19:59Bill Maher?

  Wow.

• 20:00Speaker 03

  Okay, so I thought, well, I'm gonna do something useful to the world, so macadamia nuts, I researched them, so it was perfect protein for, for the human, and it's so easy to grow, and it is rich in all the right fats for brain, you know, to develop your brain, and to fuel your body, and like, you know, all the good stuff, all the good fats, all the good proteins, and very low in carbohydrates, high in energy, and, you know, I just got intrigued by, man, this could feed the world, kinda, I got really altruistic over it.

• 20:42Bill Maher?

  How many trees do you have?

• 20:44Speaker 03

  Five thousand.

• 20:45Bill Maher?

  Five thousand? And how many people does it take to tend to five thousand trees?

• 20:51Speaker 03

  Well, see, that's the problem.

• 20:54Bill Maher?

  It's just you?

• 20:55Speaker 03

  Yeah, me and like four thousand wild pigs, that I have to, like, you know, I have to shoot them because they're, they're attacking me, so I have had to become a huntress.

• 21:09Bill Maher?

  Wait. Four thou- what are you- you're joking.

• 21:12Speaker 03

  No, I'm not joking.

• 21:13Bill Maher?

  What do you mean by four thousand pigs?

• 21:14Speaker 03

  Well, because it's overrun by wild pigs. Because of the nut trees, because I can't harvest them. Because they're so labor intensive.

• 21:22Bill Maher?

  You can't keep animals out with a fence?

• 21:25Speaker 03

  I've got a fence. It goes under the ground. The pigs are so smart. You know, I call them the uniparty, the repiglicans. That's what they are. They'll go, if you think you're gonna keep them out with a fence, electric fence that goes under the earth, you're not. They want what you have.

• 21:43Bill Maher?

  Okay. Boy, it's like they're pigs.

• 21:46Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 21:47Bill Maher?

  Um, but what, so they tunnel under the fence?

• 21:50Speaker 03

  Oh, they'll do anything. I saw this one bitch.

• 21:53Bill Maher?

  But specifically?

• 21:54Speaker 03

  She knew she couldn't get through. They're so fucking smart.

• 21:57Bill Maher?

  Okay, but you say it's-

• 21:57Speaker 03

  No, wait, let me tell you. They're so fucking- they're smarter than humans. Listen.

• 22:02Bill Maher?

  Okay, it's either-

• 22:02Speaker 03

  They're smarter than humans. I seen this one big old pig bitch. She couldn't get into what I have. She's got nine thousand fucking acres around her. But she's gotta come where I am, where she ain't wanted. Because she's a repig- repiglican.

• 22:18Bill Maher?

  A sow, right?

• 22:19Speaker 03

  Yeah. So she puts her little tiny baby through the hole in my fence. She squishes him through, pushes him through.

• 22:27Bill Maher?

  Like an anchor baby.

• 22:30Speaker 03

  Kinda like that.

• 22:31Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 22:32Speaker 03

  And I see them pushing their babies to the fence, and I am overrun by wild pigs.

• 22:38Bill Maher?

  And you said there's four thousand?

• 22:40Speaker 03

  There's so many fucking hundreds of them. Every time I come home and go up my driveway, there's more of them, and they're looking at me too. At first, they used to scatter. But now they stand there going, what are you looking at?

• 22:52Bill Maher?

  But who counted them?

• 22:54Speaker 03

  Me. I got obsessed with compulsive.

• 22:56Bill Maher?

  Four thousand? I mean, I wanna know how you actually count four thousand wild pigs in a forest by yourself. That does seem like it's a- that you probably didn't do that.

• 23:08Speaker 03

  I'm estimating.

• 23:12Bill Maher?

  Yeah, it was like I'm perping Jack Benny. I'm estimating.

• 23:17Speaker 03

  How great was that guy?

• 23:19Bill Maher?

  Also before my time, but I-

• 23:21Speaker 03

  Oh, my time too, but I did get to see him on TV.

• 23:24Bill Maher?

  But that's the thing, when you're- when you're a aspiring comic as a kid, you are- wanna be a student of the past ones too.

• 23:33Speaker 03

  Okay, let's get to the real deal. Let's cut to the chase here, cuz I- this is what I really was a-

• 23:38Bill Maher?

  Cosby, I think he did it.

• 23:40Speaker 03

  Oh, no, no, I was- I was wanting to talk about him. Cosby, okay, let's talk about him. But, okay, wait. I don't even know about what he- and that taking that off the table. They did, taking what, all that shit off the table.

• 23:55Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 23:56Speaker 03

  They did violate his civil rights. Because he signed that paper saying, I will only testify to the truth-

• 24:02Bill Maher?

  That's why he-

• 24:03Speaker 03

  If I am not prosecuted.

• 24:05Bill Maher?

  That's why he got out of-

• 24:06Speaker 03

  And they agreed.

• 24:06Bill Maher?

  That's why, yes.

• 24:07Speaker 03

  And that's why they overturned the shit, because they tried- They came back on him after they agreed they was never gonna come. So they violated him.

• 24:14Bill Maher?

  Okay, but what they did is they fucked up the procedurals.

• 24:18Speaker 03

  Right.

• 24:19Bill Maher?

  And that counts, that's our system. And he did serve three years. That by the strict rule of the law, he shouldn't have served any time, because you're right.

• 24:27Speaker 03

  That's right.

• 24:29Bill Maher?

  But, you know-

• 24:30Speaker 03

  So they got their pound of flesh.

• 24:31Bill Maher?

  Can we call it poetic justice? Cuz he certainly deserved to serve probably more than three years, considering. I mean, I was willing to let the first fifty go. But it got higher than that. I was like, hey, I'm seeing a pattern here. Maybe this guy did do something. Um, yeah, it is amazing the way he was enabled through decades.

• 24:53Speaker 03

  Well, just the transcripts of the trial that he admitted to are horrible.

• 25:00Bill Maher?

  But the crimes that you can perform almost in broad daylight.

• 25:06Speaker 03

  Not almost. Christ, you know, it's like saying the emperor's naked, and that used to shock people. Now it's like, he's not happy enough to be naked in the streets. And not anybody say nothing. But now, he like wants to walk down the street and just bend over and put his butt right up in our face. And we're not supposed to say nothing.

• 25:31Bill Maher?

  Well, I don't think we're not supposed to say nothing. You know, I don't know why you have to- you seem to want to always pick a fight, where I feel like-

• 25:40Speaker 03

  Because they tried to destroy me, Bill.

• 25:43Bill Maher?

  Who's "they"? Oh, you're talking about the networks?

• 25:46Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 25:47Bill Maher?

  Hey, I know, I know you. I always felt for you. I mean, for people who don't remember it too young, Roseanne was the biggest thing. There was a rarely seen kind of comet that crosses the show business sky. Like when she first went on the Tonight Show, it was the-

• 26:06Speaker 03

  Now this is sounding like a Jack Benny toast.

• 26:08Bill Maher?

  It was the biggest, like, reaction. We had not seen anything like this hit a nerve, whatever you wanna call it. Then the biggest sitcom, and then comes back. What is it, twenty years later, ten years later, something with-

• 26:22Speaker 03

  Twenty.

• 26:22Bill Maher?

  The reboot of the sitcom goes to number one again.

• 26:27Speaker 03

  Try that, bitches.

• 26:28Bill Maher?

  And then you tweeted something that I don't even know if you thought it was racist. It certainly was.

• 26:36Speaker 03

  It was not.

• 26:37Bill Maher?

  Well, okay, well-

• 26:39Speaker 03

  I thought the bitch was white.

• 26:41Bill Maher?

  I know, that's what you thought. But that doesn't mean it isn't racist, because obviously-

• 26:46Speaker 03

  She looks just like the fucking picture.

• 26:48Bill Maher?

  You're not gonna get yourself out of this by- by reiterating that.

• 26:53Speaker 03

  And everybody's in power gotta be made fun of.

• 26:56Bill Maher?

  That's true.

• 26:56Speaker 03

  Mock, mock, mock, mock, mock. Fuck you. If you can't take a joke, fuck you, you fascist. That's how I feel, Bill. And you know what? I don't give a fuck what color your ass is. If you ain't doing right for your own people, or anybody's people in this country where people are sleeping in the streets, and it makes me fucking sick, then fuck you. I don't give a fuck about your feelings. You are offensive to me. You better take care of the people living and dying in these streets. Fuck off. I'm so sorry, but it just came out.

• 27:33Bill Maher?

  No, I'm glad. That's what I want. I want it to come out. It's what- what do old friends do when they get together? You can either have a blah blah boring, like, you know, chit chat, small talk conversation, or you can like let it out and- And I'm trying to tell you, like, I get what you're coming from. I- I also-

• 27:52Speaker 03

  I don't know how to do it, other than just say it.

• 27:55Bill Maher?

  You have more balls than anybody.

• 27:57Speaker 03

  I- that's cuz I'm a trans man, and people don't know that.

• 28:05Bill Maher?

  Well-

• 28:06Speaker 03

  I am, though.

• 28:08Bill Maher?

  No, you're not. You're not a man. You were never a man. We knew you from- you were a child star. You were on the Disney Channel. You were Little Rosie. Remember, Little Rosie, I remember the character you did. You were really a witch, I think, of some kind, but a good witch. Uh, from another planet. And somehow, they- they implanted all these crazy ideas in your brain. And cut to- It looks like they really did.

• 28:37Speaker 03

  Oh my God, you know what really happened, though?

• 28:40Bill Maher?

  But you need to be a little more sensitive to like people who- I get it. I- I face the same frustrations.

• 28:46Speaker 03

  I love them. I want to set the captives free.

• 28:49Bill Maher?

  Who's the captives?

• 28:50Speaker 03

  The fucking people that believe anything that comes across the TV.

• 28:56Bill Maher?

  But what, you're on TV sometimes?

• 28:58Speaker 03

  Except me.

• 29:01Speaker 03

  Bill, help me. It's true.

• 29:04Bill Maher?

  You were reminding me of a really warm, wonderful memory, which is you doing Politically Incorrect, which, when you were the biggest star in television, and I had a little show that was getting point two rating, and you came and did this show. I think with Tom. I think you did it together.

• 29:25Speaker 03

  Did I?

• 29:26Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 29:26Speaker 03

  Did we?

• 29:26Bill Maher?

  And like, the point of that show was like, everybody should get a voice.

• 29:32Speaker 03

  Right.

• 29:32Bill Maher?

  You know, I mean, even when you're nutty, I think you should be heard. Like, I don't believe in any sort of circumcision of free speech.

• 29:41Speaker 03

  Oh, what a great- that is a great word. Oh my God, circumcision of free speech.

• 29:46Bill Maher?

  Yeah, I didn't really mean it. I was just-

• 29:48Speaker 03

  I think we have to remember that, uh, well, Americans like after 911, you know, Bill?

• 29:54Bill Maher?

  9/11, you mean?

• 29:56Speaker 03

  Huh?

• 29:56Bill Maher?

  You called it 911.

• 29:59Speaker 03

  Oh, well, it's an emergency.

• 30:01Bill Maher?

  I know, but we- we did at the-

• 30:03Speaker 03

  How come they're alike?

• 30:04Bill Maher?

  I remember at the beginning, we- people were calling it 911. But then it became 9/11, and has been that way for like twenty-one years. But, you know, better late than never.

• 30:15Speaker 03

  9/11. I hate saying it. Oh, it's just awful memory, but-

• 30:20Bill Maher?

  Oh, yeah.

• 30:21Speaker 03

  But, uh, I remember, I didn't find out about it till 912. But that's so weird, but it's true.

• 30:31Bill Maher?

  Why? Why, Gracie?

• 30:35Speaker 03

  It is like that.

• 30:38Bill Maher?

  Why?

• 30:38Speaker 03

  You have to remind me.

• 30:39Bill Maher?

  And I'm- and I'm just like George Burns. I got the cigar. Why, um, why didn't you find out about it until 912?

• 30:51Speaker 03

  Well, George.

• 30:53Bill Maher?

  What?

• 30:54Speaker 03

  Well, George. It's like this, eh?

• 30:58Bill Maher?

  Another comedy icons who were before my time. But I still knew.

• 31:05Speaker 03

  So brilliant.

• 31:06Bill Maher?

  I remember when I was a-

• 31:06Speaker 03

  I should talk about her, how fucking genius that woman was.

• 31:11Bill Maher?

  Gracie Allen?

• 31:12Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 31:13Bill Maher?

  Well, it is true. Again, I didn't actually seem, I knew what the act was. She was the dumb blonde, it wasn't really dumb. You know, it always has to work out where the man looks like the asshole.

• 31:23Speaker 03

  It does have to work out. But I tried to change that paradigm because I didn't want-

• 31:27Bill Maher?

  You did.

• 31:28Speaker 03

  I didn't want Dan to look that way.

• 31:30Bill Maher?

  You brought real truth. Both in the stand-up and in the sitcom to domestic American life. You also, I tell this every time-

• 31:39Speaker 03

  I tried.

• 31:40Bill Maher?

  Every time people, um, bring up that movie Dolores Claiborne.

• 31:46Speaker 03

  Uh huh.

• 31:46Bill Maher?

  I always say, I remember this very clearly. Roseanne was the first person to talk about how common child

• 32:00Bill Maher?

  harassing is, whatever. What's the right word?

• 32:03Speaker 03

  Use?

• 32:04Bill Maher?

  Yes, you know, yeah. And, which is what that movie's about.

• 32:08Speaker 03

  Right.

• 32:08Bill Maher?

  And I remember so clearly at the time. The reaction was, she's exaggerating, oh, come on. I'm, I was skeptical myself. I don't think I was like, oh, Roseanne's full of it. I was like, oh. I didn't, I didn't, I did not know that. You were the one who like really put that out there and said, no. It's not a weird or rare thing. It's like, it's all through the culture. I guess it's been through every culture.

• 32:35Speaker 03

  Yeah, forever.

• 32:36Bill Maher?

  It's amazing how-

• 32:37Speaker 03

  But we're just-

• 32:37Bill Maher?

  horrible humans are that they can fuck children.

• 32:41Speaker 03

  Oh, they do worse than that.

• 32:45Bill Maher?

  Murder, I guess, is worse. I'm gonna-

• 32:48Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 32:51Bill Maher?

  Oh, look at this, look at this.

• 32:54Speaker 03

  Oh, you got a thing, yeah, good.

• 32:56Bill Maher?

  No one, I had this all along.

• 32:57Speaker 03

  Oh, that's nice.

• 32:59Bill Maher?

  I'm like Dorothy, who just remembered she could go home at any time.

• 33:03Speaker 03

  It is like that. I played the wicked witch in, uh, in, uh, The Wizard of Oz on Broadway, you know?

• 33:11Bill Maher?

  Typecasting?

• 33:12Speaker 03

  Ah, oh my god, wasn't it fun though? That was typecasting.

• 33:17Bill Maher?

  The villain is always the fun part.

• 33:18Speaker 03

  Oh, it was so fun. I got to fly on them fly things.

• 33:22Bill Maher?

  Oh, right.

• 33:23Speaker 03

  Yeah, it was so awesome.

• 33:25Bill Maher?

  I, I don't, what, what year was this?

• 33:27Speaker 03

  Oh, one of those years.

• 33:30Bill Maher?

  Right.

• 33:31Speaker 03

  I got to run for president too, weird. I wanted to talk to you about that. But anyway, we'll go back, that's a whole other subject.

• 33:38Bill Maher?

  Why don't you raise pot instead of nuts?

• 33:40Speaker 03

  Well, I tried, but they won't fucking legalize this shit.

• 33:44Bill Maher?

  Oh, you're in Texas?

• 33:45Speaker 03

  Yeah, neither Texas nor Hawaii will legalize me to sell my, uh-

• 33:50Bill Maher?

  Not Hawaii?

• 33:50Speaker 03

  Uh uh, they won't do it neither.

• 33:52Bill Maher?

  Come on.

• 33:52Speaker 03

  Uh uh, they won't. And it's a socialist state. And they won't do it.

• 33:59Bill Maher?

  I'm surprised to hear you admit that. See, that's the thing. Your politics are so all over the map.

• 34:05Speaker 03

  One foot in blue, one foot in red.

• 34:07Bill Maher?

  I know, but what does that add up?

• 34:09Speaker 03

  That's straddling the vast middle, bitch.

• 34:11Bill Maher?

  I, well, okay. I, I would concur with you that we need both sides.

• 34:18Speaker 03

  We need the vast middle.

• 34:20Bill Maher?

  We need the vast middle, correct.

• 34:22Speaker 03

  How did they, how did they marginalize the vast middle? That's what I ask myself every day.

• 34:27Bill Maher?

  But, but some of the things you say are not representative of the vast middle.

• 34:31Speaker 03

  No, I know, cuz I'm fighting on another level.

• 34:34Bill Maher?

  Another level?

• 34:35Speaker 03

  I'm fighting up here in the penthouse of thought where wars are won and lost.

• 34:40Bill Maher?

  I mean, people get at the truth through different means. I mean, some people are, are out with it. I think you and I are in that category generally. And we pay a big price for it sometimes. I mean, you know, people do not like to hear truth, they really don't. They say they do, they like it in theory.

• 34:58Speaker 03

  Well, I say they like it after the guy that told the truth has been tortured and murdered and stripped of his skin after 2,000 years, then they think he's cool.

• 35:07Bill Maher?

  Well, we could be a little rosier about it than that, can't we?

• 35:10Speaker 03

  But, I mean, they only like him 2,000 years after they've died a tortuous death that they put him through. You know, it's just gross how people think.

• 35:20Bill Maher?

  I consider myself a realist, but you know, when it tips into that darkness, I don't know if that's realism either.

• 35:28Speaker 03

  Of course it is. We live in a fucking dark world ruled by Satan.

• 35:32Bill Maher?

  You don't live in a dark world, you live in Hawaii and Texas.

• 35:35Speaker 03

  I don't, but the most of the world lives, I mean, and myself. I'm forced to live in this sphere where it's controlled by Satan the snake.

• 35:44Bill Maher?

  Wait, a sphere that is ruled by Satanists?

• 35:47Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 35:48Bill Maher?

  Who are the Satanists?

• 35:50Speaker 03

  Well, they're all over the place, but they don't know that they're doing it.

• 35:54Bill Maher?

  Like who? Like, name somebody? You know, just anyb-, I don't know, I don't know, here's, oh, George Bush, Jeff Goldblum? I don't know what level, were, were, are they everywhere? The bank? Um, who, who, who are the Satanists?

• 36:10Speaker 03

  At the very top sits the Bank of International Settlements in Bern, Switzerland.

• 36:15Bill Maher?

  The Bank of International Settlements? I've got my savings account with them.

• 36:21Bill Maher?

  Oh, no. I mean, it's only, it's only a hundred and forty-two thousand dollars, but still, are they in trouble of some kind? Are they, they're caught at being an international cabal?

• 36:33Speaker 03

  Well, they were actually caught at that in 2008 with the HSBC bank hack.

• 36:40Bill Maher?

  Well, the whole, the whole world economy collapsed in 2008. They weren't the only ones.

• 36:46Speaker 03

  How smart you are to have noticed that about 2008. Let's clink a fucking glass on that.

• 36:54Bill Maher?

  Okay, it's common knowledge, but thank you. So-

• 36:57Speaker 03

  But I didn't know you had that common knowledge.

• 37:00Bill Maher?

  Well, yeah, I host a show about the news. It was kind of like the biggest story of that year. But, okay, um-

• 37:06Speaker 03

  Well, I don't remember every God blessed thing you utter.

• 37:11Bill Maher?

  Well-

• 37:11Speaker 03

  I'm, I'm-

• 37:12Bill Maher?

  Plainly.

• 37:13Speaker 03

  I'm consumed with myself as you are.

• 37:16Bill Maher?

  Are you still into Kabbalah? I know, I know you're into Kabbalah.

• 37:20Speaker 03

  I'm into the Zohar, that thing you know nothing about.

• 37:24Bill Maher?

  Well, I loved Big.

• 37:29Bill Maher?

  He could not have gone back to childhood if he wasn't with the Zohar.

• 37:35Speaker 03

  If you saw it, it would blow your mind. It tells about, it tells us about the karma of ants. And anyway, that's the key.

• 37:43Bill Maher?

  Karma of ants, it's just, it is a little ethereal, it's like-

• 37:47Speaker 03

  It's very ethereal.

• 37:47Bill Maher?

  It begs for like a Woody Allen joke, like-

• 37:49Speaker 03

  It kinda does.

• 37:50Bill Maher?

  The karma of ants, but does it affect alternate side of the street parking is my-

• 37:56Bill Maher?

  my question.

• 37:58Speaker 03

  Jokes are the greatest-

• 37:59Bill Maher?

  The best.

• 38:00Speaker 03

  The greatest thing to save humanity. That's why I just love the effect of comedy.

• 38:05Bill Maher?

  They will not save humanity, but I'm-

• 38:07Speaker 03

  No, I agree, we're down for it.

• 38:09Bill Maher?

  Well, I mean, I remember when ISIS was riding high. You remember after the Iraq war was over, I guess it was, uh, Obama into Trump, mostly Obama second term, I guess. When ISIS was, kind of like took over a caliphate, which, you know, people were crazy, thought Glenn Beck, who is crazy, uh, said they're looking to start a caliphate, and then they did. Which, you know, Glenn Beck, I still think is crazy. But like, when he's right about one, give him the credit.

• 38:42Speaker 03

  Yeah, even a broken clock-

• 38:44Bill Maher?

  And they, and they won't do that, that's what's on-

• 38:47Speaker 03

  The greatest quote, even a broken clock is right twice a day.

• 38:51Bill Maher?

  Well, I don't think it was, I, I-

• 38:53Speaker 03

  Truth is true.

• 38:54Bill Maher?

  I would give him a little more credit than that. He seemed to study that, that subject quite well.

• 38:58Speaker 03

  I understand him completely because he is LDS, and I was raised in Salt Lake City, Utah, amongst the LDS. And I totally understand what he's saying. And much of what he's saying is, uh, you know, I know that they'll forgive and excuse me for saying, but that is because of the deep teachings of the Zohar, which the Mormon church does teach as the pearl of great prize.

• 39:22Bill Maher?

  So you were both raised a Mormon-

• 39:25Speaker 03

  And a Jew. Orthodox Jew and Mormon at the same time.

• 39:30Bill Maher?

  Okay, so you were raised a Mormon and a Jew. And also took a hood ornament right through the skull. Which do you think fucked up your thinking more? That's enough for you, young lady, you're cut off.

• 39:42Speaker 03

  All right. Father.

• 39:47Bill Maher?

  Yes, which fucked up your thinking more?

• 39:49Speaker 03

  Well, I wouldn't call it fucked up my thinking.

• 39:52Bill Maher?

  I know, I was just teasing.

• 39:54Speaker 03

  No, but I understand from I understand from your world, which we call the singleton world.

• 40:00Bill Maher?

  The singleton world?

• 40:01Speaker 03

  Yeah, that's our language.

• 40:03Bill Maher?

  Singleton, meaning I'm not married?

• 40:05Speaker 03

  Meaning you have only one personality.

• 40:09Bill Maher?

  I do. Or everybody.

• 40:11Speaker 03

  That you know of.

• 40:12Bill Maher?

  Everybody or just me?

• 40:13Speaker 03

  Just you.

• 40:14Bill Maher?

  Just me?

• 40:15Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 40:15Bill Maher?

  Everybody else has more?

• 40:16Speaker 03

  Well, I don't know, but you do speak the language of of someone who isn't like severely divided. Although sometimes I think you might be severely divided. Because here's a test I always ask people. Take this test to see if you might be severely divided.

• 40:34Speaker 03

  Do you often say one thing and then do another?

• 40:40Bill Maher?

  Never.

• 40:41Speaker 03

  That's cool.

• 40:43Bill Maher?

  It's so easy not to. Maybe I did when I was younger and dumber, I'm sure I did. But it's a very easy. Once you're a mature adult and you know your capabilities and so forth. There's no, I never understand people who do that, who like promise something that they know they're not gonna deliver on. Can't you foresee ahead two days or two weeks when, you know? Right, you know, it's like like why, you would never like tell a girl or you I have a big dick if you didn't, because at some point you know, then you're gonna like, hey, you said you had, I know, I would, it was what I said to get you in bed, but now I'm in bed and you see, I don't what a terrible strategy that would be. You know, I, but people do it all the time.

• 41:25Speaker 03

  Set themselves up for humiliation on purpose.

• 41:28Bill Maher?

  I'll give you a perfect example. Twice I stayed

• 41:30Speaker 03

  They're fucked up.

• 41:31Bill Maher?

  Listen to this, twice I stayed at a five star hotel. I won't say which hotels they are, but you know.

• 41:40Speaker 03

  Five star, we get it.

• 41:45Bill Maher?

  Anyway. One, I, I'm not gonna say the I'm not gonna say the name, but it was, it rhymes with more reasons not to stay there again, because although I do, I forgave, but not that particular branch. So they're like, most people I guess are in a hotel, they get up, they're business people, they go out and they do their shit. So they're out of the hotel at nine in the morning or whatever. I'm a comedian, I'm asleep at noon. There's construction going on.

• 42:12Speaker 03

  I know.

• 42:13Bill Maher?

  Have you ever had that happen?

• 42:14Speaker 03

  Of course, always.

• 42:15Bill Maher?

  Banging and and like I called down and this is the point I'm talking about where like, why do people just not tell you the truth right away? And I'm like, hello, what the fuck, I'm trying to sleep, I paid for this room, it's the Four Seasons. Or whatever hotel it was.

• 42:34Bill Maher?

  I mean, the more reasons. And they say, I'm so sorry, Mr. Mar, but we'll stop that. And they have no intention of stopping it, it's costing them whatever fifty thousand dollars a day or something, and it just it just goes on and you call back, I'm so sorry, and they're just like, you got to be fucking kidding. And then you go down to the lobby and you say, what the fuck? You keep telling me. And some guy comes out and says, yeah, we can't stop it. It's like, why didn't you tell me that right away? And you know, switch my room. Crazy.

• 43:06Speaker 03

  That's why I never stay at hotels anymore. That's why I was

• 43:10Bill Maher?

  Where do you stay?

• 43:11Speaker 03

  Well, I just stay at my own damn farm.

• 43:15Bill Maher?

  But you're in LA.

• 43:16Speaker 03

  Oh, I mean, when I'm over at the islands.

• 43:19Bill Maher?

  Look, where are you staying now?

• 43:20Speaker 03

  Huh?

• 43:21Bill Maher?

  Where are you, where are you staying now?

• 43:23Speaker 03

  I have no idea.

• 43:24Bill Maher?

  Yes, you do. What are you talking?

• 43:27Speaker 03

  I do have a place out of LA.

• 43:29Bill Maher?

  And you're a place in LA?

• 43:31Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 43:31Bill Maher?

  Gee, you're just one of the common people. How many other?

• 43:34Speaker 03

  Well, I live in a lovely neighborhood. No, I do live in lovely neighborhood that is a you know, a nice neighborhood.

• 43:43Bill Maher?

  I'm glad you were able to hang on to enough loot to have a bunch of fucking houses around the world, because, you know, I think of you as like

• 43:51Speaker 03

  All wealth comes from land.

• 43:53Bill Maher?

  You're like the share of comedy.

• 44:00Bill Maher?

  Wow, it's like the alarm in prison where they have to all get on the ground.

• 44:05Bill Maher?

  Hit the neck, boys, you get a shot with a rubber bullet.

• 44:10Bill Maher?

  No, but you're, you're very iconic and you know, you

• 44:13Speaker 03

  I just tried to do what, I just tried to put my

• 44:17Bill Maher?

  They can't get you down.

• 44:18Speaker 03

  Money where my mouth is or fuck it.

• 44:21Bill Maher?

  Right.

• 44:21Speaker 03

  I just can't talk bullshit.

• 44:24Bill Maher?

  No, I know.

• 44:24Speaker 03

  Or God will strike me down and send me straight to hell where the serpent will rule my soul. I don't wanna give in to the serpent.

• 44:31Bill Maher?

  I

• 44:32Speaker 03

  You know, that's what the Bible says, but they, they got it all MK altered, so women can't know what the Bible really says, Bill.

• 44:39Bill Maher?

  Oh, God, I, I mean, there's so much to I got just too exhausted to go back and pick apart the crazy all the way back to the first crazy, but it's something about the serpent. I don't think, I don't, I think the first part of what you said has merit, but I don't think we need to attribute this to the serpent. And

• 45:01Bill Maher?

  and by serpent.

• 45:03Speaker 03

  I'm going back to

• 45:04Bill Maher?

  You really believe Do you really believe in a serpent? Do you believe in the Bible, like literally, are you a Bible person?

• 45:10Speaker 03

  I'm a Torah person. Deal with that, I just wanna see your face when I tell you that.

• 45:15Bill Maher?

  I know, for folks who don't know the Bible, Torah is the first five books of the Bible. You know, the

• 45:20Speaker 03

  The five books of Moses.

• 45:21Bill Maher?

  The big ones. Genesis, Exodus, you know, all the big stuff happens. The earth is created, Garden of Eden.

• 45:29Speaker 03

  Going out from Egypt.

• 45:31Bill Maher?

  Yes, of course.

• 45:33Speaker 03

  That's the big one, going out for slavery.

• 45:35Bill Maher?

  Yes.

• 45:36Speaker 03

  Exodus and slavery.

• 45:38Bill Maher?

  Yeah.

• 45:40Bill Maher?

  I mean, the Bible is just such a silly

• 45:43Speaker 03

  Exodus. Movement of the people.

• 45:48Bill Maher?

  You know, it's just a book full of horrible morality and

• 45:51Speaker 03

  I know.

• 45:52Bill Maher?

  Pointless violence, it's just as a, as a moral guide.

• 45:56Speaker 03

  But that's how they were.

• 45:58Bill Maher?

  That's how they were, exactly.

• 46:00Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 46:00Bill Maher?

  But the idea that people today take it seriously and emulate that, that's what's

• 46:04Speaker 03

  Do that same shit?

• 46:07Bill Maher?

  No, I don't think they should take almost any

• 46:09Speaker 03

  Well, they think they should follow along with the with the story that's supposed to be teaching them something, but they don't get the teaching of it.

• 46:18Bill Maher?

  They, no, they do teach parables, but they're just horrible lessons, they're like, you know, Jacob pimped out his daughter to the king of Shlomazar so that he would curry political favor. And then the daughter was raped and so they, you know, burned down the whole village. It's just never, it's, it's never some good lesson. It's terrible, it's just

• 46:41Speaker 03

  Check it out, though. That's how they were.

• 46:44Bill Maher?

  That's how, exactly, I'm just saying

• 46:46Speaker 03

  That's how they were.

• 46:47Bill Maher?

  Exactly, the problem is that they encoded that into a moral guide, quote unquote, and it's the last thing you would want as a moral guide.

• 46:56Speaker 03

  But it leads up to something.

• 46:58Bill Maher?

  What?

• 46:59Speaker 03

  It leads to well, if you do the total Jewish Gematria of Torah, okay.

• 47:07Bill Maher?

  Gematria?

• 47:09Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 47:09Bill Maher?

  I don't know that word.

• 47:10Speaker 03

  I know you don't, but who cares, you don't need to.

• 47:13Bill Maher?

  I, I like

• 47:14Speaker 03

  You're perfect how you are.

• 47:15Bill Maher?

  I like learning.

• 47:17Speaker 03

  That's cool, but you are perfect how you are.

• 47:20Bill Maher?

  I feel like the older I get the more I approach on a daily or weekly or yearly basis being approach, not being, but approach being a hundred percent of you know, who I wanna be at that moment, like, accepting when I can't change and, you know, uh, changing, you know, that old thing, changing what I have the power to change, making the right decisions, not stupid decisions. You know, treating people the right way. You know, it's that takes decades. And, you know, I just feel the needle does move toward a hundred, but of course you'd never get there, I mean, I, I

• 48:02Bill Maher?

  these people who say in interviews, I have no regrets, I have regrets every day. There's not a day that goes by where you're like, I did everything just perfectly, even if it's something trivial. So you know, you just do less and less as you get older, it's, it's the compensating factor that we have for being this age, because we're not as cute as we used to be.

• 48:22Speaker 03

  Well, I was never cute.

• 48:24Bill Maher?

  You sure were.

• 48:25Speaker 03

  No, nobody ever wanted to fuck me.

• 48:27Bill Maher?

  Grew into your age great.

• 48:28Speaker 03

  No, nobody ever wanted to fuck me in Hollywood. And now I thank God that that was correct.

• 48:34Bill Maher?

  You just have to, look, every age

• 48:36Speaker 03

  Look, if, if I had had to, you know, get to the very tippy top of that, of Hollywood by blowing my way to the top, I would have the worst shame ever, but I never had to do that.

• 48:49Bill Maher?

  Right, you just did it for fun.

• 48:52Speaker 03

  I just did it for free.

• 48:56Bill Maher?

  Because you're a socialist.

• 48:57Speaker 03

  No, it all leads to this. It's all gonna be so great in the future.

• 49:02Bill Maher?

  What is?

• 49:03Speaker 03

  Everything. It is, though. I said this at Y2K, which they're trying to obscure all notions of Y2K. But I was right about Y2K and what was gonna happen. And nobody listened to me, including you.

• 49:22Bill Maher?

  Nothing happened.

• 49:22Speaker 03

  That's right. Nothing happened.

• 49:25Bill Maher?

  Is that what you said all along?

• 49:26Speaker 03

  Because they inserted the O between the one and the one. All coders know this.

• 49:33Bill Maher?

  I see.

• 49:34Speaker 03

  There was a one and a one, and everybody was obsessed that when the century turned, what was gonna happen? Well, what did indeed happen is they added a zero between the one and the one, and all the banks crashed. Just like everybody said was gonna happen at Y2K.

• 49:53Bill Maher?

  But the banks didn't crash.

• 49:54Speaker 03

  Oh, yes, they did. And they crashed again in 2008.

• 49:59Bill Maher?

  They crashed in 2008. They didn't crash in 2000. Y2K?

• 50:02Speaker 03

  Oh, yes, they did.

• 50:04Bill Maher?

  Okay.

• 50:05Speaker 03

  But they tried to prevent it. They tried to prevent it by destroying evidence.

• 50:12Bill Maher?

  I mean, I remember losing money in the year 2000, but it was because...

• 50:16Speaker 03

  Yeah, you did.

• 50:17Bill Maher?

  Yeah, because I fell for, again, better to be older and wiser in some ways. I fell for like the idea of like the internet, which was kind of new, was going to be this rocket of economic superstardom. And invested in a bunch of, you know, tube socks dot com. Who's not gonna wanna get their tube socks? And of course, we now have a company that everybody gets their tube socks from and everything else. But yeah, there was a dot com bubble burst around 2000. It had nothing to do with any of this.

• 50:54Speaker 03

  It did have to do with Y2K.

• 50:56Bill Maher?

  It did not.

• 50:57Speaker 03

  Yes, it did economically. In the world of economics, it definitely did.

• 51:01Bill Maher?

  You said, I mean, I remember reading about it.

• 51:04Speaker 03

  Then they started jacking up the prices. Check it out. They jacked up the prices.

• 51:08Bill Maher?

  Seven personalities.

• 51:10Speaker 03

  And every one of them is a mathematical genius. So kiss our ass.

• 51:15Bill Maher?

  But it's still seven, or did you have to lay a few off because of the pandemic?

• 51:21Bill Maher?

  Three of them are working from home now.

• 51:28Bill Maher?

  Um, okay.

• 51:30Speaker 03

  There's only one now.

• 51:31Bill Maher?

  Really?

• 51:32Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 51:33Bill Maher?

  Are you on meds?

• 51:34Speaker 03

  Hells, yes.

• 51:37Bill Maher?

  Really?

• 51:38Speaker 03

  Fuck, yeah.

• 51:40Bill Maher?

  I remember the pilot...

• 51:41Speaker 03

  The question is, have you never been on meds? That's the question you should ask.

• 51:48Bill Maher?

  I remember the reboot, the pilot of the reboot of your show. You, the first scene, you and Goodman are trading your pills. Because you can't afford to have all the pills you need.

• 52:00Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 52:00Bill Maher?

  That is your genius.

• 52:02Speaker 03

  Yeah, I wrote that.

• 52:03Bill Maher?

  Encapsulating a blue collar concern in a way that people...

• 52:08Speaker 03

  Oh, they hate the blue collars.

• 52:10Bill Maher?

  Yeah, but you, that's the nerve you hit, and you hadn't... When I saw that scene, I was like, oh...

• 52:15Speaker 03

  They don't let me back on on that one.

• 52:17Bill Maher?

  Well...

• 52:18Speaker 03

  No, they know what they're doing.

• 52:20Bill Maher?

  What do you think of this guy who sang "Rich Men, North of Richmond"?

• 52:27Speaker 03

  I sent him an email. I wanna interview you.

• 52:32Speaker 03

  And here's what comes back. This can't be real.

• 52:38Bill Maher?

  He's probably a big fan.

• 52:40Speaker 03

  And it's somebody else's name, but not his. And so I sent back, but it is real.

• 52:46Bill Maher?

  Right.

• 52:47Speaker 03

  And then I said, are you a publicist?

• 52:52Speaker 03

  And I haven't heard back.

• 52:54Bill Maher?

  Do you know...

• 52:55Speaker 03

  Because you know publicists are the most evil people on earth. You know that, Bill.

• 53:01Bill Maher?

  What I know is...

• 53:02Speaker 03

  Tell the truth. They are of the snake.

• 53:05Bill Maher?

  Don Henley, when they put him in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with the Eagles, he was talking about Irving Azov, their longtime manager and now mogul. And he said, people in the industry think of him as Satan, but he's our Satan. And that's what you want in your publicist. You want Satan on your side. So, you know...

• 53:24Speaker 03

  That's not good. Azov clan over there in the Ukraine, the Azovs.

• 53:28Bill Maher?

  That's very different. That sounds like Fox News stuff.

• 53:32Speaker 03

  It's true. The same name.

• 53:34Bill Maher?

  I feel...

• 53:35Speaker 03

  That ain't Fox News shit.

• 53:36Bill Maher?

  Irving Azov, the mogul manager, has nothing to do...

• 53:41Speaker 03

  With the Azov clan?

• 53:43Bill Maher?

  With whatever's going on in Ukraine, I promise you.

• 53:45Speaker 03

  I bet he does.

• 53:47Bill Maher?

  Unless the Eagles are playing Kiev.

• 53:49Speaker 03

  I'm old. Like, I don't get half the shit I use.

• 53:52Bill Maher?

  Yeah, you look, you're doing fine. You know what?

• 53:55Speaker 03

  I don't like the sagey shit.

• 53:57Bill Maher?

  What you don't have is old energy, which is good. You'd have young energy. That's what, it's not, yes, people can see that we're not 25 anymore. But it's like the way you conduct yourself, you know, at a certain point. Like Biden is a perfect example of the other part of this. Biden, do I think he can do the job as president? Yes, because government is done in small rooms, making quiet decisions. Do I think he's up to running? No, because there is the perception, because he just looks and moves and stumbles verbally. And so it's just, there is an oldness that he cannot escape. It is a monster that is chasing him. Perception is reality. He has to step aside.

• 54:41Speaker 03

  I think it gets Jim Carrey in a mask playing him.

• 54:46Bill Maher?

  Jim Carrey did play him on Saturday Night Live for a season.

• 54:50Speaker 03

  I know, but like going up the stairs and falling that many times, only Jim Carrey could do that so brilliantly.

• 54:57Bill Maher?

  There, it's funny you say that, because I've said this before about Jim. Like, most parts, you know, they have a list of people, who can play this? And it's like, yeah, they get the first guy they want. If they don't, sometimes the second guy. Hollywood is full of stories of stars who turned down a part, which turned out to be a hit movie for, oh, Ryan O'Neal. And Burt Reynolds could have had it, but he didn't.

• 55:20Speaker 03

  Like Klaus Schwab used to be Colonel Klink on Hogan's Euros.

• 55:26Bill Maher?

  Brilliant casting. I mean, you know, he was...

• 55:28Speaker 03

  You don't remember Hogan's Euros?

• 55:30Bill Maher?

  Oh, of course I do. I loved Hogan's Euros.

• 55:32Speaker 03

  Remember Colonel Klink?

• 55:33Bill Maher?

  Of course, Werner Klemperer. He was the son of Otto Klemperer, a great German composer or maestro.

• 55:42Speaker 03

  I'm talking about the fat bald one.

• 55:44Bill Maher?

  That's Sergeant Schultz.

• 55:45Speaker 03

  Yeah, that one. That's Klaus Schwab.

• 55:48Bill Maher?

  John Banner as Sergeant Schultz.

• 55:50Speaker 03

  Yeah, Sergeant Schultz is Klaus Schwab.

• 55:54Bill Maher?

  In real life?

• 55:55Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 55:55Bill Maher?

  So who's, but who's Klaus Schwab?

• 55:58Speaker 03

  The head of the WEF.

• 56:01Bill Maher?

  What's that?

• 56:03Speaker 03

  Google it.

• 56:06Bill Maher?

  Is that the bank? That controls everything, WEF thing? What was the name of that thing?

• 56:11Speaker 03

  The Bank of International Settlements in Bern, Switzerland.

• 56:14Bill Maher?

  So the Bank of International Settlements?

• 56:16Speaker 03

  That's where all wars are decided.

• 56:20Bill Maher?

  They meet there, but it's not the Swi, it can't be the Swiss themselves. They're not secretly running the world. The bank, I get, is there. But everybody uses Swiss banks who wants to keep their... Although, in recent years, they've eroded a lot of those privacy laws with Switzerland. I mean, it's not quite as in the vault as it used to be.

• 56:41Speaker 03

  Yeah, it's called the Bank of International Settlements. And it's the central bank of all central banks.

• 56:47Bill Maher?

  Trace me through how they get to make the decision. Is it about what they're, they finance certain armaments? That then it's too lucrative to not fight a war with these armaments? Is it that kind of thing? Because how does the bank control the war?

• 57:04Speaker 03

  Well, banks control all the wars.

• 57:07Bill Maher?

  How?

• 57:14Speaker 03

  Well, they finance all the wars.

• 57:17Bill Maher?

  I'll concede this.

• 57:18Speaker 03

  They go and they sell, their job is to stir up wars and arm both sides for profit.

• 57:27Bill Maher?

  Okay, there's a book...

• 57:29Speaker 03

  Check it out. It's on the internet.

• 57:32Bill Maher?

  Um, there's a book...

• 57:33Speaker 03

  They make money from wars. Period.

• 57:37Bill Maher?

  Halliburton, yes. We understand people do... I mean, and during World War II, they prosecuted war profiteers. I mean, it was not something that went unpunished. There's a very famous play called All My Sons. Do you know that play? The movie, a very famous movie, black and white, Edward G. Robinson. He's a maker of planes. And he makes planes and scrims on the bolts a little bit. And people go down because the wing doesn't work right. And one of them is his son, who's in the war.

• 58:17Speaker 03

  Oh, God, what a parody.

• 58:18Bill Maher?

  And that's the title. They were all my sons.

• 58:21Speaker 03

  Oh, wow.

• 58:21Bill Maher?

  So that was very much on the minds of people back then. Not cool war profiteering. That went away as corporations, and we're on the page with this, you know, the Pentagon. Eisenhower had it right. Military industrial complex. It's just something that never, it's the one thing the Republicans and Democrats always agree on, is that the Pentagon needs more money, which really means defense contractors, which is different than defense. And the budget of the Pentagon is like the Virgin Mary. It is sacred. It is immaculate. It cannot be touched, and it just goes up and up.

• 58:58Speaker 03

  With no accountability.

• 59:00Bill Maher?

  With very little accountability, yes. They don't care.

• 59:02Speaker 03

  Like charging $15,000 for a screwdriver.

• 59:07Bill Maher?

  But that's part of just a kind of corrupt, greasy, end of the empire system that happens in countries. It's not like a deliberate conspiracy. It's just happened, it just happens when people slowly evolve, getting lazier and greedier. There's a book called, um, oh, I can't remember the name of it, but the thesis of it is that government uses crises as a way to get a policy in, they always wanted to get in.

• 59:37Speaker 03

  Yeah, they do.

• 59:38Bill Maher?

  And the example, the prime example would be the Iraq war, you know?

• 59:43Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 59:43Bill Maher?

  The Republicans wanted to go back to Iraq and kick Saddam Hussein's ass, you know?

• 59:48Speaker 03

  Well, so did the Democrats.

• 59:50Bill Maher?

  They went along, but it wasn't like George Bush. He tried to kill my daddy.

• 59:55Speaker 03

  No, but the Democrats went right along with it.

• 59:57Bill Maher?

  They did, most of them, not all.

• 59:59Speaker 03

  All of them always do the same thing and act like they ain't gonna.

• 1:00:02Bill Maher?

  Not all of them, that's how Obama got elected president, partly because he was the one who was right about the Iraq war. He was not for the Iraq war.

• 1:00:12Speaker 03

  But then he bombed eight countries.

• 1:00:15Bill Maher?

  Sometimes presidents have to bomb, they do. The world is full of shitty people plotting against us. Sometimes presidents have to kill you, yes, that's true. You're the one who like speaks the truth, that's the truth. So you can live comfortably in Hawaii and Texas and California and I don't know how many other states, and we can enjoy our cushy lifestyle. Yes, there are bad guys out there. They're not all rooting for us. And they're like the pigs, some of them, in your forest. They want what you have, and sometimes you gotta bomb them. But we would try not to. I feel that Jimmy Carter is a heroic president

• 1:00:57Bill Maher?

  because he's the one president, never fired a shot. Now, if he had been president after nine eleven, he probably would have had to fire a shot or two. But never fired a shot, that's very rare. Presidents pull the trigger a lot. Now, should Clinton have like bombed Serbia? In, when was that, nineteen ninety-eight, the Balkan wars? I mean, that's, that's a big thing, to bomb another European country. It's a little presumptuous, like, but, you know, they were gonna annihilate the, possibly the Muslims in Kosovo. I mean, it was like, those are the decisions, like, people make, and you want the people in office to be sober.

• 1:01:42Bill Maher?

  That's why like Biden, I, I'm not opposed to him.

• 1:01:46Speaker 03

  You think Biden's sober?

• 1:01:48Bill Maher?

  I, I'm not opposed to him being president, but he's going to lose. He's going to lose to Trump, who just next to Biden, looks like James Brown at the Apollo. And he's seventy-seven. But it just, they're just, one guy just looks, the angrier Trump gets, the more he, uh, looks invigorated. He fucking killed it in his mugshot. You could not have done better in that mugshot. I gotta give him that.

• 1:02:19Speaker 03

  It was great.

• 1:02:20Bill Maher?

  Killed, it was, I mean, you could.

• 1:02:22Speaker 03

  It's sad at all.

• 1:02:24Bill Maher?

  Any other actor, you could give a hundred takes.

• 1:02:26Speaker 03

  Greatest show on earth.

• 1:02:27Bill Maher?

  Any other supermodel, and they couldn't have nailed it, and he, he only got one take, and he did, that was exactly the look he wanted. Andrew Sullivan said he was trolling the Constitution. Is he still your boy?

• 1:02:42Speaker 03

  Who?

• 1:02:43Bill Maher?

  Trump.

• 1:02:46Speaker 03

  Oh my God, you're not going there. Now you're trying to get, pick another fistfight between us.

• 1:02:52Bill Maher?

  No, I'm just asking, I don't give a shit. You think I, you think, it's not gonna affect my love for you. That's the whole, not the whole point. One of the main points of this thing we're doing here is that I love to talk to people who I don't agree with on every.

• 1:03:08Speaker 03

  Me too.

• 1:03:09Bill Maher?

  Yes.

• 1:03:09Speaker 03

  We should all be able to talk to each other.

• 1:03:12Bill Maher?

  Exactly, we should all be able to talk.

• 1:03:14Speaker 03

  That's the fucking point.

• 1:03:15Bill Maher?

  Right, and still come away.

• 1:03:16Speaker 03

  Of America.

• 1:03:17Bill Maher?

  That's, I, I mean.

• 1:03:18Speaker 03

  Long may it wave.

• 1:03:21Bill Maher?

  I had Candace Owens here, and, um, you know, it just made me think, so many of the things she says, she was, she's very funny. When she says something I totally agree with, it, I mean, she's just a, it's like a comic going straight at it.

• 1:03:35Speaker 03

  Yeah, she's funny and hilarious.

• 1:03:36Bill Maher?

  The ref needs to call the match sometimes. I mean, it's like, it's not a fair fight. But then she's, it's like, what I thought was like, this is the challenge of America. How, to get along with someone who you think, oh, this person is so on the money on A, B, C, and D, but is insane about E and F. Or in your case, G, H, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z. Double A, double B, double C, double D.

• 1:04:05Speaker 03

  You would call, you, but people like, but you're, on your side, you call common sense crazy.

• 1:04:15Bill Maher?

  Me personally, you're talking about?

• 1:04:16Speaker 03

  No, your, your way of thinking.

• 1:04:18Bill Maher?

  Based on facts?

• 1:04:20Speaker 03

  No, mine is.

• 1:04:22Bill Maher?

  Yours is not.

• 1:04:23Speaker 03

  Mine is totally fact.

• 1:04:25Bill Maher?

  Yours is based on anything anyone says on the internet.

• 1:04:30Speaker 03

  That is so fucking untrue.

• 1:04:32Bill Maher?

  It is very true.

• 1:04:33Speaker 03

  It is so not true.

• 1:04:34Bill Maher?

  I don't know how you got sucked into the Fox News vortex.

• 1:04:37Speaker 03

  I didn't get sucked, I hate Fox News.

• 1:04:40Bill Maher?

  I think they have one of those swirly things.

• 1:04:41Speaker 03

  I hate Fox News.

• 1:04:42Bill Maher?

  It was like, swoosh.

• 1:04:44Speaker 03

  I hate Fox News.

• 1:04:46Bill Maher?

  You hate Fox News?

• 1:04:47Speaker 03

  Uh huh, always have.

• 1:04:49Bill Maher?

  But that's where you get things like, you know, what got you in trouble.

• 1:04:56Speaker 03

  What?

• 1:04:57Bill Maher?

  I mean, there's memes in the right wing media sphere that, you know, need checking out and vetting, and people don't. People just, if they see it on the screen, it's, you know, somebody asked me recently, what scares you? I think they were gonna, thinking I was gonna say COVID or some stupid thing like that. It was like, what scares me is the human brain. And like, how crazy people can be. Again, not about everything, but like, how much crazy there is out there. And yet, you know, life doesn't just, as it seems like it should, just completely go off the rails. We get up, we drive, we go places, we come home.

• 1:05:41Bill Maher?

  Sometimes shit happens, but mostly, we're living our best lives. And it's like, with all these crazy people out there. It's that, that's what scares me, is that at some point, there's gotta be a reckoning with all that crazy.

• 1:05:55Speaker 03

  Well, I think we're all crazy to someone.

• 1:05:58Bill Maher?

  I definitely think we're a too conformist society, whereas when people step outside the bounds of what is the one true opinion, I call it, you know, the conventional wisdom, they're some sort of heretic. That's why I say, I want people to hear everything you think. Because yes, once in a while, like, the crazy person, this, we saw this with COVID. Everything that the people who were supposed to be crazy were saying, oh, now the studies come out, and oh yeah, the masks were not good for you, breathing in your own CO2, something I said like the first week at the thing. Okay, I'm the crazy person, but a lot of times the crazy person, after some time, turns out to be not so crazy.

• 1:06:42Bill Maher?

  I forget why I brought that up, but I'm getting like you, I'm.

• 1:06:46Speaker 03

  It goes like for me, that my, my tweet was about a militarized government under the Obama administration, and, uh.

• 1:07:00Bill Maher?

  What does that mean, a militarized government? Governments control the military, we have a military. We're not a militarized government, not yet.

• 1:07:09Speaker 03

  I'm sorry, a militarized police force.

• 1:07:14Bill Maher?

  Well, the police in America did, they went through a period.

• 1:07:18Speaker 03

  That's when tanks showed up in the streets.

• 1:07:20Bill Maher?

  Yes, I remember doing editorials on this, that, especially after the Iraq war, they, military, you know, America always run by, how can we make money on this? Everybody in America is Milo Minderbender in Catch-22. So they had like excess Jeeps and tanks and shit that came home from the war. It's like, what can we do with this shit? Oh, you know what? I bet you we can sell it to police departments. Wouldn't you like a tank if you were the sheriff? Uh, and that's what they did, and they said, so that, I remember doing a new rule, and it was after the riots in Boston, and maybe after the Boston Marathon bombing, oh, not riots,

• 1:08:02Bill Maher?

  the manhunt, and like, it was like, when did?

• 1:08:06Speaker 03

  It's all horrible.

• 1:08:08Bill Maher?

  When did Boston get an army?

• 1:08:10Speaker 03

  I gotta go to bed, Bill.

• 1:08:13Bill Maher?

  Well, that's honest. Yeah, okay. Not because I said something bad.

• 1:08:20Speaker 03

  I'm just tired and shit.

• 1:08:22Bill Maher?

  I love that you, it's always right out there. Like, it hit you, you were like, I'm not gonna bullshit or like, slowly pee. I'm just, hey, I'm ready to go to bed.

• 1:08:37Bill Maher?

  I can't tell you how much I appreciate you doing this.

• 1:08:40Speaker 03

  I had fun.

• 1:08:42Bill Maher?

  I saw you laughing a million times. That is what made me love this.

• 1:08:45Speaker 03

  It was all hilarious.

• 1:08:47Bill Maher?

  It was hilarious.
