He has the same themes that have become tiresome. Religion, pot (not that I'm against it), and I think that somewhere in his head and in his comments he's rather homophobic and misogynist. Also, and this isn't anything important, but his mannerisms drive me bonkers. He has a tendency to interrupt guests with inane comments and just isn't as funny or intelligent as he thinks he is. Sorry Bill.
