Bill Maher - Hey, Travis

You were right he is a moron. Last night he was saying stupid shit about how they could call Hunter Biden to the stand. It’s like so? Apparently he’s terrified of it.

Who is terrified? Hunter or Mahar?

Yeah man, that guy sucks

Bill is really worried about Hunter getting called to testify. It’s like why? He must be smoking weed that makes him really paranoid.

Maher is a tool. He’s not all that funny and not all that bright, but he does have a giant ego that prevents him from being self aware.

He has good panels and he had Pelosi on last night. But yes I think he’s losing the plot. I feel like he’s rotted his brain listening to too much Rogan and Harris.

Everyone knows the story with hunter already. Fine have him testify whatever. There’s nothing to expose. But then you’ll also have to have John Bolton mulvaney and the rest too. I’ll take that trade all day

Who Harris?

And do you have evidence that Maher listens to Rogan? I've never seen either on the other's show that I can recall.

Just checked, looks like Maher was on Rogan yesterday.

Prior to that, though, I don't think he ever had been.

Sam Harris. I think Bill is pretty influenced these days by the whole Bari Weiss, Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro, Sam Harris, Rogan crowd these days.

So he’s basically your average everyday message board poster. He just has a TV camera recording it.

I don’t mind Rogan. He’s pretty much a content provider and let’s the viewer or listener decide.

Andrew Yang was on. He’s a pretty entertaining dude.

Yes, and Rogan is a below average poster.

Rogan and Maher are two different people Turtleneck

I am funnier than Bill Maher.

I'm aware. I think Rogan is terrible. He should go back to hosting shows where people eat goat feces.

I’m funnier than Joe Rogan.

Here’s my biweekly proclamation that Joe Rogan is a douchebag.

I don't think there's any amount of Sam Harris listening that could rot one's brain, Sam Harris is briliiant.

His voice and rate of talking puts me to sleep. I find him unbelievably boring to listen to.

I find all of their schticks to complain about college campuses to be tired and old at this point. I walked around MSUs campus last November and didn’t have a single problem.  I walked around a campus over here in New York and same thing. Just saw everyday people. Those guys seem butt hurt that Jerry seinfeld doesn’t like to play campuses anymore. You know what? Maybe his mundane observations are a thing of the past?

Team Steve.

Sam Harris is just another in a long line of internet age intellectuals. They have watched you tube videos about or read the dummies guide to famous philosophers and think that makes their proclamations have weight. This is so typical of our time. “My 2-hour Wikipedia deep dive gives my arguments the same legitimacy as your lifetime of study and accomplishment.”

I was unaware that Stanford gave BAs and UCLA gave PhDs for watching youtube videos and reading dummies guides...

Harris reduces almost all social behavior to neuroscience, and positions himself as some kind of perfect rational creature. It's annoying and more schtick than anything.

Ben Carson is a brain surgeon.

Dr Oz is a heart surgeon.

George W Bush has a degree from Yale.

I don't need credentials to tell who is smart and who isn't, people usually make it quite apparent. I was merely responding to the assertion that Sam Harris is somehow informed by youtube videos rather than his BA in philosophy from a respected university.

I’m smarter than sam harris.

Fucking steve...

What’s up either Joe Rogan and elk meat? He interjects it into every conversation. It’s like we get it man you eat elk meat all the time. Enough already. And you drink turmeric coffee? I will have mine with with milk and sugar, asshole.

If Rogan makes you that upset, maybe listen to Valenti instead...

I'd rather listen to someone talking about elk meat and tumeric than inviting his audience to take a whiff of his butt (blech) or obsessing over the size of Nick Foles schlong.

Also, I'm listening to the Maher episode right now. Good listen.

There’s a generation of adrift American, mostly white males who are searching for some reason to still insist that America is exceptional and that their privilege either doesn’t exist or is earned. That’s Rogan fans, Sam Harris fans, Jordan Peterson fans, and unfortunately for him, the Yang Gang.

Possibly the same person.

Sounds like Rogan invested in the elk meat farming industry.

Trump is an Ivy Leaguer, too.

Rogan endorsed Bernie, and Bernie publicly celebrated the endorsement. Seems to have caused some backlash.
