Monologue: Return of the Mask

Bill recaps the top issues of the week, including the renewal of mask mandates, and unveils a new addition to his wardrobe.




Eric Adams: Running Against a Movement

Democratic NYC mayoral nominee Eric Adams joins Bill to discuss his stance on politics, policing, and personal health.




Simone Biles vs. The Asshole Division

Rep. Stacey Plaskett (D-VI) and Joshua Green join Bill to discuss right-wing attacks on U.S. Olympic gymnast Simone Biles after her withdrawal from competition.




New Rule: The Woke Olympics

Bill implores liberals not to ruin the Olympics with phony outrage over old jokes and claims of cultural appropriation.




Here's a "bootleg" version of the show which includes the the entire interview with Eric Adams (7:54) and panel discussion with Stacey Plaskett and Joshua Green (19:16), Bill's "funny bit" (32:33) and complete New Rules (44:45). It won't last long, as usual:

1. Thanks for posting "Real Time".

[Rhiannon12866]

2. You're more than welcome, was glad to see it back, thought this was a good one!

3. It was a good one.

U.S. Representative S. Plaskett added most value.

[Rhiannon12866]

4. Oh, I liked her a lot, too!

[greyl]

5. She'll be forcing progress, righteously. nt

[Rhiannon12866]

6. She was stellar as an impeachment manager, expect we'll be hearing a lot more from her

And it's not surprising, like Katie Porter had Elizabeth Warren as a professor in law school, Stacey Plaskett had Jamie Raskin as her constitutional law professor!

7. Questionable

that both Maher and Adams agree that Adams should be emulated by the Dem party, which is great if your goal is to only garner 30% of the vote.

8. I wasn't aware who he was till I saw him, since I'm not in New York City

He seems like a good guy, but I see your point if he only barely won the primary since I know there were a lot of candidates running.

9. Love the full episode! Thanks Rhiannon12866!

10. Thanks! Glad that you caught it!

The first one I linked to disappeared, but I found another good one. They usually don't last long.

11. Most clueless line

Maher says that when you go to Asian countries everyone is wearing masks but, you know what, you never see them smiling. He said that straight, like it was not meant to be a joke.

Funniest line was when Rep. Stacey Plaskett, responding to critics of Simone Biles, said, "They can kiss my overworked, Black woman ass." and Josh Green responds, "I was gonna second that but I guess I can't."

[Rhiannon12866]

12. LOL! It was a pretty good show last night, liked all the guests

Though Bill was obviously very uncomfortable wearing his new glasses.

13. Thanks for posting!

We recently streamed down our Comcast subscription and canceled HBO, so I’m always happy to be able to see Bill Maher’s show.

[Rhiannon12866]

14. Oh, good! The last video still works!

The first one I posted disappeared so I replaced it, glad you got to see the whole show, it was a good one!

[Bluepinky]

15. Yes, I enjoyed it!

[Rhiannon12866]

16. This was his first show in a month, he took a summer "hiatus"

So I was also glad to see him back, and with all good guests as well!
