Real Time with Bill Maher (HBO) - 11/14/2025

[Rhiannon12866]

I apologize that there are so few "official" videos available, this practice by HBO appears to have started last season. If any are uploaded in the meantime, I'll definitely add them. But I wanted to share what's available before the "bootleg" videos are gone.



Note to Men: Drink More

"Notes on Being a Man" author Scott Galloway joins Bill to discuss one simple remedy to social isolation.





New Rule: Flirting with Socialism

Democratic Socialism is like a dating profile: things look great until you meet up in the real world.





Overtime with Bill Maher: Scott Galloway, Fareed Zakaria, Josh Barro

Bill and his guests continue their conversation after the show.





Here's a "bootleg" version of the show which includes the entire interview with Scott Galloway, professor at NYU’s Stern School of Business and bestselling author of the new book Notes on Being a Man; entire panel discussion with Fareed Zakaria, host of CNN’s Fareed Zakaria GPS and New York Times bestselling author of Age of Revolutions: Progress and Backlash from 1600 to the Present; and Josh Barro, host and author of the Substack newsletter and podcast Very Serious with Josh Barro; Bill's "Funny Bit"; and the opening part of New Rules. It won't last long, as usual:

1. Plenty to criticize, but liked show.

2. Thanks! Though I have to admit that I had trouble posting that first Scott Galloway clip, the worst of the bunch

My issue was that he sees drinking as a solution for young men, and he said that alcohol wouldn't affect a 25-year-old's liver. I've been in AA for 17 years and I immediately remembered a 26-year-old addressing the group saying that he already had liver damage. That stuck in my mind and was offended by Scott Galloway's potentially harmful advice.

4. galloway may even be right, i just don't want to listem to that much of it

i saw a good clip from his podcast about the air traffic overload. paraphrasing

don't ground commercial flights. ground the private aircraft. the big donors will be on the phone and the shutdown will be over.

[Rhiannon12866]

6. Thanks! That was a good point and it apparently worked!

[rampartd]

3. his sermon at the end of nw rules rea;;y ticked me off

so i guess that worked.

[Rhiannon12866]

5. Same here!

I felt like he was also attacking Bernie Sanders, who is very popular in my neck-of-the-woods and, though he's older than the convicted-felon-in-chief, is one of our hardest working senators.

7. bernie is one of those rare inspirational leaders

and if we don't have some kind of , well

if fascist imperialism with monarchal intentions can rebrand as "conservative capitalism" surely we can think of an apple pie name for socialism......

[Rhiannon12866]

8. And Bernie does caucus with the Democrats

[rampartd]

9. absolutely

not a millimeter further "socialist" than fdr or lbj

10. Bill Maher isn't worth watching anymore.
