And yet, I still hate Bill Maher.

    His show is pathetic. No real content, he only goes on ignorant rants where he tells his fellow ignorant people what to think.

      where he tells his fellow ignorant people what to think.

      In the last few years he’s had a deeply progressive audience. And they used to groan at him. And he’s just become more ignorant, and I hope it does ruin his reputation and that of his show. I soent so many nights thinking he would have great jokes about the state of things, just to be lectured about why transgenderism and wokism is an empty fad.

      His past shows years ago could be good. He’d have interesting guests with differing views on a timely subject. He just never learned the first rule of being a good host. Shut up and let your guests talk. This goes for any talk shows, the best hosts would not only listen to and let their guests talk, they were great at teasing out the details without damn interrupting the flow. If you have an ego and want people to hear what you think about something, then you’ll make a terrible talk show host.

        That’s what made Conan such a good host. He let his guests talk and didn’t interrupt very often. He talked when he thought he could get something else out of them.

        That’s what makes Joe Rogan such a great interviewer. I don’t like his politics but I have to admit he’s a damn good interviewer. He has some really nutty guests on, and he just lets them talk. That’s probably a bad thing, but it would be a good thing if he would actually have some decent guests on.

          The choice of guests and the refusal to stop Bill shit when he hears it is what makes in a terrible interviewer. He seems engaged in the topic, but shows zero knowledge about it and allows first to support nonsense without questions or refutations. His choice of terrible guests is a feature of his political views, not a coincidence.

      That’s how I feel about all talk shows.
