The right wing woman on the panel was a particularly dim bulb and Matt Taibi and David Axelrod easily deflected her attempts at relevance.

The guy who came on at the start and talked about the book he wrote on Scientology was damned interesting and confirmed everything I've ever heard about that goofy cult.

I'd more or less given up on Maher, but my wife had it on and I sat down to watch and it really was OK.

I think it was a repeat. My PVR skipped it, and I have it set to auto record. Electric Monk Mar 2015 #1

It was new. Matt Taibbi was the one guest I recognized, but it was a good show. arcane1 Mar 2015 #2

Nope, it was new. Pretty good I thought, with no Muslim or vaccine bashing. Hoyt Mar 2015 #3

David Axelrod was also on the panel. It was a new show Rhiannon12866 Mar 2015 #4
