Wow. so RANDOM! Not at all self-righteous, curmudgeonly, opportunistic, selfish, or a union scab! Just like the everyman...

Candace Owens? What a terrible guest. First time I’ve been disappointed in this show, or Real Time.

DOL missed the housing crash of 2008. that sentiment that government data is reliable is an elite point of view

She's right, Bill does just rail on like a bitter old man. It's reflexive. I also think these "conversations" , as he calls them, would be more useful if he would actually let the guests form and complete those thoughts. Bill just talks over everyone.

First person to really push back on Bills biases. Bless him but he gets stuck sometime in the same rants. Still a truth sayer in the public view though.

Wow man, I don't listen to all of these, but when I saw Mrs Osborn on the show, it was a done deal. She's a legend in the industry, and such an incredibly tough, smart lady that I just had to listen. Great episode.

your interview of Richard Dreyfuss (one of the A-list actors of my lifetime) Was one of the most frustrating and disappointing podcasts I ever heard. There he was, trying to dish on some of the biggest celebrities of Hollywood's golden age, and it seemed like he had the really good stuff. But before he could finish any story, you had to but in with one of your stories of how much fun you had back in the day, playing with your winky. and you did it over and over. GIVE US A BREAK!

bill needs to let his guests finish their sentences. he pontificate over them and interrupts far too much. becoming unlistenable as he ages. I stopped religiously tuning in because it's hard work to make out what guests are saying.

Bill, did you throw a scorpion in the bath water lately? Apparently, it works. Hahahaaaa. Just yesterday a clip of Geena on Graham Norton had come up and she mentioned Sara. Today, you do. Kismet, I guess. I had never heard of it, which surprised me because the mid 80s was the last sitcom gold time. I just watched my first episode, which was ep2. Omg, it also had Ronnie Corbett, aka Corabeth Godsey, little Matthew Lawrence, and Kate and Oliver Hudson's uncle. Maybe we didn't get it up here in Canucker land. Anyway, Lisa/Phoebe, my favourite Friends actress/girl character. I just could not stomach the show until early 2020... Sorry. Heck, same with Seinfeld and The Office... I tried but just couldn't until recently and now I love them. In certain circles I was called the ditzy one and teased about being smart. What can I say? It's fun, keeps 'em guessing and shocked, right, Lisa? (April 17, 2023)
