Bill Maher posted on FB just now. He's on Rachel Maddow's show tonight

"Just did the great Rachel Maddow show - you know when the host ends it by saying "send ur hatemail to him, not me" it got a little touchy."

This oughta be good...

1. thanks for the head up n/t

2. well Bill can be a jerk. I will never forgive him for being rude to Studs Terkel

for being hard of hearing.

3. I'll bet he was a jerk.. He's so damn sure he's the smartest guy in

the room all the time. Rachel not only is 1000 times brighter, she out-classes him by a mile.

4. Barbara Boxer on The Last Word and Bill on Rachel's show.

Ok, those are reasons enough for me to watch these shows than to watch the debate. Thanks for giving me good reasons.

5. Maybe Rachael challenged him on what he said about OWS on his own show last Friday. nt

8. no she didn't challenge him, she didn't even appear to disagree

and Bill Maher actually likes the OWS protests. it doesn't prevent him from poking fun at it on his tv show.

6. He's making a lot of sense nt

7. It didn't get testy --had they been in the same room, that would've ended in a hug

that was one of the friendliest interviews I've seen.

if they each only watch one show on each other's networks, it is undoubtedly each other's shows.

anyone who thinks the interview was contentious didn't watch the interview.

9. missed it!!

i can't believe i missed it.. had an emergency with a dog and had to run out of the room right before the interview, got back just as rachel said "i'll be more relaxed on your show"... what was said?

11. them agreeing, basically?

:shrug:

10. Saw it. Basically, Maher told the truth that Mormonism is a wacky religion. No big news.

Maher rightly made the observation that Mormonism is the looney tunes of Judeo-Christian/Protestant mythology land (e.g., getting your own planet when you die, magic underwear, etc.).

12. hah, of course

didn't miss much then.. can't wait to see rachel on bill's show soon though, love them together. well, love them seperately, love them together, its whatever. joined this forum just to post on this convo though. thank god there are sane people. just started watching MSNBC about a year ago.. since then, finding people like bill and rachel that make me feel like there is hope in the world and smart, influential people in the media.
