Journalist Mel Buer joins the show to bear witness to the glory of America's forever culture war! Mel was not especially familiar with Bill Maher coming into this but brother you better believe she'll be thinking about him for a LONG time after! A panel from Hell, Real Time bottom of the barrel bingo, and the obscenely difficult struggle of trying to come to terms with the fact that a guy who sucks this bad at what he does has been rewarded for doing it for almost his entire life. PLUS I don't think I said Mel's name correctly even once.

I know, it's late, sorry I'm not perfect!!!

The first 45 minutes the audio is kind of janky due to my assuming Streamyard wouldn't just suddenly change up my settings for no reason, but here is a very fun episode with writer and illustrator Mattie Lubchansky. As the result of having an extremely long commute early in her career, Mattie may be in the top five guests when it comes to how much Real Time they have ingested prior to being on the show, but that doesn't leave her any less aghast at what this episode has in store for her! There's a really... odd New Rule in this one.

Look man, if you were one of those people praising Bill Maher for pushing back on Ben Shapiro one single time, I have bad news for you: your ass got played.
