What This Comedian Said Will Shock You
What This Comedian Said Will Shock You | Bill Maher
41 posts | 4 read
The hilarious and controversial host of HBOs Real Time with Bill Maher has written his funniest, most opinionated, and most necessary book evera brilliantly astute and acerbically funny vivisection of American life, politics, and culture. Some of the smartest commentary about whats happening in America is coming from a comedianthis comedian being Bill Maher. If you want to understand whats wrong with this country, it turns out that one of the best informed and most thought-provoking analysts is this very funny pothead. The book was inspired by the editorial Bill delivers at the end of each episode of Real Time. These editorials are direct-to-camera sermons about culture, politics, and whats happening in the world. To put this book together, Maher reviewed more than a decade of his editorials, rewriting, reimagining, and updating them, and adding new material to speak exactly to the moment were in. Free speech, cops, drugs, race, religion, the generations, cancel culture, the parties, the media, show biz, romance, healthMaher covers it all. The result is a hugely entertaining work of commentary about American culture in the tradition of Mark Twain, Will Rogers, and H. L. Mencken.

This is a collection of updated essays of Bill's editorials from his show. It is funny, thought-provoking, inciteful and irreverent. He has a way of commenting on our crazy society that makes you laugh and feel bad about things at the same time. He skewers the Democrats for being too sensitive and judgmental and the Republicans for having lost their way and for the cult of Trump. It was an easy and fun read. 4.25/5

You may not agree with everything, but as he says “you don‘t have to.” Which should be all of us. Honest to himself. Essentially his new rules segments in print and updated. Autographed copy.

68/150 I know a lot of people don't like Maher, he's an asshole, he admits it himself, but whether you care for his politics or not, when he's making a point it's well thought out, and he doesn't back down or apologize when there's backlashes. I been a fan since his Politically Incorrect TV series, and while we don't see eye to eye on everything, I still enjoy his humor. 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐💫

dabbe Agree 💯. His “New Rules“ are spot-on. 5mo

You don't need to follow Gary from high school who was your lab partner in chem class--you forgot chem, you can forget him. You don't need his "status update." His status is that he never left town. And guess what? Because of Facebook, you haven't either. Just remember, not everyone you've ever crossed paths with is meant to be in your consciousness forever. Some people come into your life, touch you, and then leave. But enough about scoutmasters.
