I don't want to go on a rant here, but this week writer Sophia Benoit really gets tossed into the Real Time meat grinder when she's given an episode to discuss that has Dennis Miller on the panel. Has experiencing her mother and former step-father's Bill Maher fandom as a teen prepared her for such an experience, or will she suffer the same amount of psychic damage that Dennis Miller himself does when Arianna Huffington takes a pretty mild shot at him. Also, the evils of American Pie.

Oh, also this should be the last week that my sound is bad and that the episode is so late, since I got a new mic and that means I won't have to spend so much time attempting to tweak every God damn thing I said during the recording. Of course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong.

On this week's pretty late episode, comedian and writer Emma Arnold joins me to talk about the time she went with a bunch of other people to Hawaii WITH BILL MAHER. That's right, someone who spent time with Bill Maher in the flesh, and is able to confirm that, yes, he is a miserable piece of shit. We also talk about the third ever episode of Real Time, and how that version of him compares with the 2016/17 version.

Comedian and PODCASTER™ John Cullen (Broomgate) joins Will to talk about episode 2 of Real Time episode 2. He's not a particularly political guy, and particularly hates it when comedy gets mixed in there, so this is sure to be his absolute Hell. Also, my mic AND my voice get kind of fucked up over the course of the episode, uh, hopefully it's better next week???
