Do you ever do the pegging thing? Have you ever tried that? No, I have a dick. Well, you have what? I have a dick. You can still get pegged. I have a butt plug in right now in about a half hour. No, it's, oh, oh, like Bill Maher is the only one keeping the butt plug industry alive. A lot of people do it.

Oh, God, you're right. I'm going to have a prostate orgasm in a few minutes. And I am a squirter.

I like this guy. Do you have a younger sister or niece? Asking for a friend. I do, but why? Nothing, never mind. You want to tell her over? I know my black hooker to hear anyway. Let's move on.

#709 - BIG JAY OAKERSON + BILL MAHER
Yeah, you can Google it. Yeah. It's well known. It is. Everyone, you know, likes their thing.

So far the blackest thing about you is... I would fuck Quintana Brown Jackson. Okay? This audience doesn't know who that is. That's why you didn't laugh.

Well, now that you're in Texas, you seem to be a bit of a floozy. Nothing wrong with that.
KILL TONY
#709 - BIG JAY OAKERSON + BILL MAHER
But I have a bit of advice for you. Yeah. Do you know what a Mexican abortion is?
KILL TONY
#709 - BIG JAY OAKERSON + BILL MAHER
Okay, okay, okay. Well, you're inevitably going to get pregnant, okay? And when you get knocked up by a child, to get a Mexican abortion, you get knocked up by a Mexican, and then ICE will get rid of the baby for you. It just makes the whole process easier.
KILL TONY

You know, I haven't, but I'm a huge fan of the... I see the clips, you know. I have a black hooker here who's a huge fan. She's waiting in the green room, so I have to make this kind of quick. She charges about a bitcoin an hour, so I want to hurry it up. Plus, I'm actually a little high right now. A little. Who am I kidding? I'm higher than a Sherpa pussy. You don't know Sherpas?

Well, he brought up the Indian people. You don't know about land acknowledgements?
KILL TONY
#709 - BIG JAY OAKERSON + BILL MAHER
Yeah, you say, you say this club was situated on the unceded territory of the Chickapaka people or whatever. And then, you know... You go, we, you know, this is their land that we stole and they are never getting it back. That's what you do. That's what TikTokers do.

What about the Department of Education? Now, I don't know that much about it, but I've never read good things. Rahm Emanuel, who I agree with on almost everything, here was a quote. He said, a third of eighth graders can't read, and now he wants to close the department? And I thought, that's probably why they can't read. Or at least partly.

Trump's Third Term, DOGE Exposes FEMA, Epstein Files Release, Fauci Prosecuted w/ Glenn Beck | PBD Podcast | Ep. 546
I mean, the numbers keep getting worse and worse and worse. And I don't know if the Department of Education is anything but... I mean, it doesn't really... I don't know what it does. Except take money. It's sort of a middleman. It doesn't, like, run classrooms or do stuff like that. I don't think it makes policy. So where are you on something like that?

In most of America they did that in schools. I don't. But I think in enough of them, in enough far left places, they did constantly have this idea in the minds of children that maybe you're not in the right body. I mean, the New England Journal of Medicine für das Abnehmen von einem Geburtstermin, glaube ich. Es war wie, du bist verabschiedet von Sex.

I mean, poor Jay was like he was not in on the private jokes between this cast who were in an emotional state after doing this groundbreaking show for 10 years or whatever it was. And now they had their finale, and then they had their party, and now they're on with Jay. And they were drunk.

Yeah. Of course, it can be sad, but we don't have to always just dwell on the sad. Dean Martin was funny. Yeah. And he wasn't even really drunk. A lot of the times he was really drunk. No, I don't think he was. I think that was a big myth. You think? Yes, I think that was an act. Dean was like he played golf and then he was in bed at nine. He was that guy. Maybe when he was younger. I don't know.

I don't have enough time in the day to read and absorb the things I do want to read and absorb. I want to read the New York Times, even though it's not the paper I grew up with and it's crazy slanted. But I also want to read Andrew Sullivan and I want to read the Free Press and I'm a...

You know, smart, engaging conversation, mostly from people who are not ideologically captured. that's what I want to immerse myself in. I don't want to immerse myself in that world. And I'm just very bad at technology. It's not native to me because when I grew up, I'm 70, basically. You're 70?

That's too bad. Well, you know what? When you're 70, first of all, you're on a much shorter leash health-wise. You've got to be very – you can stay exactly and live exactly as you always did. It's funny. When I was your age, I would have never thought I'd be like this at 70.
Pod Save America
Bill Maher on Hating Donald Trump, the Far Left and 69ing
I thought life would be completely different because that's how Americans present it, like you're completely decrepit and you're like one foot in the grave. And my father was – he would go out to the basketball court, the court, the driveway – and shoot one basket and be like, oh, and he was 53 or something. It just doesn't have to be that way. I found out when I got there.
Pod Save America
Bill Maher on Hating Donald Trump, the Far Left and 69ing

Bill Maher on Hating Donald Trump, the Far Left and 69ing
You know what I'm saying? Let me say this in his defense. First of all, I'm glad he's my new best friend because this guy is working more than anybody else to find out where the cutting edge is on keeping us, uh, healthy. He gave me some of the stuff that he uses and sells and some of this, much of it. I've been doing my own self, uh, for quite a while.

See, you need REM sleep and deep sleep. And then I'll wake up from my REM sleep. I'll come here for an hour and a half and party with you. And I'll go back and I'll get my deep sleep. And I thought, that's a guy who's willing to kind of bend a little. Sure. Yeah, yeah. To get up from your REM sleep, party with me, and go back to your deep sleep.

Yes, government should be slow. But, you know, the frog in the pot analogy that we use with global warming, which I still think is true, it's the slow.

Boy. Like they, they don't even see, couldn't they have started? It says, um, I guess this week it's tough. And I was blown a contract and said, I mean, Bill Maher, Bill, couldn't they have started this on the next card? Don't you think that word bill should have been started on the next card? No, I'm not trying to get anybody in trouble.

I always described it as a designed train wreck. That's why it was funny. And as you say, sometimes there was great enlightenment from that. The idea was everyone in America votes. We all get to vote, whether we're Harvard educated, although few people are that stupid, or

or uh you know the lowliest uh mechanic who's only finished eighth grade or something we all get to vote we don't all know the same thing or come from the same background but this is a democracy and let's pair the least likely people to ever be in the same room together at the same cocktail party and have them talk and Yeah.

What was great about that show was that when it was good, like you said, there were moments that were really good. But even when it was bad, it was like the bad was kind of good. It's uncomfortable. It's interesting. Right.

Yeah. And I mean, some nights it was so awful. It was like you had to you reveled in the awfulness.

No, I'm just the... I mean, I love Sarah, and she's still a friend. But, I mean, it's just funny to hear these names from the past. And I don't remember her on that show. I remember her on Real Time, but... She was on.

I think that was real time. I don't think that was.

Well, can I give you a little of the history? Sarah made a joke. You know, look, it was a different era. I think she has since mea culpa about that.

Bill Maher on Hating Donald Trump, the Far Left and 69ing
uh she's gone back on a lot of stuff you know she she says she she went more toward like oh no i shouldn't have said that as opposed to some comics who were like we've gotten too sensitive that would be me right yeah clearly uh yeah no i get that yeah and we have right and i'm right about that okay okay that's easy but you know all right but you know she everybody has their truth uh
Pod Save America
Bill Maher on Hating Donald Trump, the Far Left and 69ing
I'm just saying. She thought about it and evolved on it. Even if we wouldn't do it today, do we have to go back and dig up the past and yell at ourselves? Here's the thing. Whatever it was back then, most people were okay with it. It wasn't mean-spirited. She got in trouble also once for a sketch she did, which was an anti-racist sketch. Mm-hmm.
Pod Save America
Bill Maher on Hating Donald Trump, the Far Left and 69ing
Okay, but we sort of glossed over nuance at a certain point. And so, you know, I don't know if it was necessary to be like, I'm history's greatest monster because I did this. No, I thought I was doing the right thing. And at the time, usually nobody else said anything. So it was obvious that's where the country was. Anyway, she did a joke with some sort of Asian reference.

I don't remember what it was. And the person from the...

It's a very different world. We do on my show. I love doing that. And you're right, most shows don't do that. You don't see much debate on cable news. CNN has a panel But that guy who I, what did I call him? Lonely Scott? Lonely Scott, what is his name? Anyway. Lonely Scott Jennings? Yes, yes. Scott Jennings?
Pod Save America
Bill Maher on Hating Donald Trump, the Far Left and 69ing
It's like six people, and then after they all do whatever they're going to say, and usually I agree with those people, then Lonely Scott gets to talk. But I do like having an actual debate. I mean, this idea that they have some people that you shouldn't platform

That's always what was so, I mean, you said Seinfeld basically had the same reaction. Like, what am I doing here?

Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
Yeah. I mean, I can't even understand that. And I understand that Biden is deeply flawed, but he does believe in our way of life. And, you know, I mean, I was the one who was saying from the very beginning when everyone was laughing at me that Donald Trump will never give up power. And he didn't. He still hasn't conceded the last election.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
I don't know what could possibly be more fundamental to you or anyone than you have to concede elections. And he hasn't conceded the last one. He's plainly not going to concede this one. He now has all of his sycophants around him parroting his party line, which is when they ask them, will you abide by the election results?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
Yes, if it's a free and fair election, which is another way of saying if we win. You really think this is a place this country should be?
The Megyn Kelly Show

But what's more important? What kind of country do we have?

That's important, too.

Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
Well, yeah, I think that's a false equivalency. I think these things. What do you mean? I think these things are important. And but you can you can handle these things through the normal due process of our system. But if we lose the system itself, come on. We didn't. We didn't so far.

Right. And now he's had four years to put in place people who will make it work again. I don't know if there'll be a John Raffensperger in Georgia, a noble Republican who stood up to him. He thought last time that he could count on someone being just a Republican.

Mitt Romney, McConnell, obviously Liz Cheney, Chris Christie. There were Mike Pence. These are what I call as good as it gets Republicans for the people who don't like Republicans.

That's how I see you. Well, let's talk about— Why are you telling me this? I mean, this is just typical right-wing talking points, the evil Hunter Biden and the evil Joe Biden. And look, do I like them? No, I don't particularly like them. I think they're very flawed.

But again, these are the normal sorts of issues we've always had in this country that should be taken care of through the normal process we've had. You're talking about the difference between this and something fundamental, which is... Our democracy, the fact that you have to respect who wins an election or else you don't have the kind of country we've always had before.

First of all, she came out before the sun had risen to concede the election to Trump.

Tell me exactly what she said.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
OK. I mean, she conceded the election. Whether whether you're interpreting her disappointment at losing it as the same thing as Trump not conceding it. I don't know that that's where you're getting it from. But again, it's a tremendous false equivalency. You could ask Hillary Clinton right now who won that election. She will tell you Donald Trump won.
The Megyn Kelly Show

Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
I'm not defending Biden on immigration. I don't understand why it's so difficult in this country to stop people coming through the border. I don't. And I watched that 60 Minutes video. piece they did on it a couple of months ago, and they had films of people coming through this hole and the border patrol just watching them and basically waving. I don't understand why.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
I don't understand why this country can't accomplish something like that. It doesn't seem like it's impossible. But so many things in this.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
Yeah, I would agree with that. The left wing, because they're so afraid always of being called racist, they let that color every issue and very often wind up with terrible policies that wind up not helping people of color.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
Well, I think what Joe Biden is is a guy who does not want to fight with the left wing of his party. He sees that as I don't think he understands a lot of what's going on in the left wing. I mean, I doubt if he heard the word trans before he was president. But that's that's what he has chosen to do. He does not want to fight with AOC.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
He thinks that's where the energy in the party is and he's not completely wrong. So he just kind of goes along with that kind of stuff. Yeah, that's that's one thing that's not great about him. But again, in this country, maybe gender is not binary, but politics is. You only get two choices. That's right.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
You get Donald Trump, a criminal election denier who is going to transform this country into an authoritarian place like we've never seen before. Or you get Joe Biden with all his flaws.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
Okay. What is his crime again?
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
And what was that crime? That was the— Classified documents.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
Well, OK, again, a false equivalency. They both had classified documents. Here's the difference. Immediately, Biden, he shouldn't have had them. Immediately, he said, oh, sorry, my bad, and gave them back.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
You got your story. You know, look, if you see it that way, that's what I have to deal with.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
And I'm telling you.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
I mean, they both should not have had classified documents. One by the toilet, one by his Corvette. Okay.

One of them.

One Trump, one Biden. They both did that. The difference is Goofus and Gallant. Goofus said, anything I touch is mine forever. Go fish. Go fish. And the other one said, oh, yeah, my bad. And I immediately returned them.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tucker Carlson, Shawn Ryan, Bill Maher, Charlamagne, and More: Most Memorable Interviews From 2024
Yeah. Maybe you know more about that than I do. I don't remember that part of it. And I always don't trust anything I hear until I vet it from the other side because everybody sort of has their one-sided view of it. And narrative is more important than truth. I know this is the right-wing narrative.

The fact that you have to respect who wins an election or else you don't have the kind of country we've always had before.

How about... I mean, I feel like we keep going around the Rosebush about this and we're not going to make any progress, so let's stop talking about it. But, you know...

First of all, she came out before the sun had risen to concede the election to Trump.

Okay, well, first of all, she didn't say he was an illegitimate. Yes, she did. Tell me exactly what she said.

Megyn Moments: Bill Maher, VP Vance, Charlamagne, All-In Podcast, Shawn Ryan, Karoline Leavitt
Okay. I mean, she conceded the election. Whether you're interpreting her disappointment at losing it as the same thing as Trump not conceding it, I don't know. That's where you're getting it from. But again, it's a tremendous false equivalency. You could ask Hillary Clinton right now who won that election. She will tell you. Donald Trump

She came out that night in her dark purple suit and conceded the election. Correct.

I think it's a disaster.

I'm not defending Biden on immigration. I don't understand why it's so difficult. in this country to stop people coming through the border. I don't. And I watched that 60 Minutes piece they did on it a couple of months ago, and they had films of people coming through this hole and the border patrol just watching them and basically waving. I don't understand why.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Megyn Moments: Bill Maher, VP Vance, Charlamagne, All-In Podcast, Shawn Ryan, Karoline Leavitt
I don't understand why this country can't accomplish something like that. It doesn't seem like it's impossible. But so many things in this country... We can.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Megyn Moments: Bill Maher, VP Vance, Charlamagne, All-In Podcast, Shawn Ryan, Karoline Leavitt
Yeah, I would agree with that. The left wing, because they're so afraid always of being called racist, they let that color every issue and very often wind up with terrible policies that wind up not helping people of color.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Megyn Moments: Bill Maher, VP Vance, Charlamagne, All-In Podcast, Shawn Ryan, Karoline Leavitt
Well, I think what Joe Biden is is a guy who does not want to fight with the left wing of his party. He sees that as, I don't think he understands a lot of what's going on in the left wing. I mean, I doubt if he heard the word trans before he was president. But that's what he has chosen to do. He does not want to fight with AOC.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Megyn Moments: Bill Maher, VP Vance, Charlamagne, All-In Podcast, Shawn Ryan, Karoline Leavitt
He thinks that's where the energy in the party is, and he's not completely wrong. So he just kind of goes along with that kind of stuff. Yeah, that's one thing that's not great about him.

Would you repeat what you just said when you introduced a duly elected representative from the United States of America, please? I will. The representative from Delaware, Mr. McBride.

A lot of people lately talking about this 80-20 issue. And I think you are on the other side of this now, the side with the 80. 80 being 80% of the people in this country. Again, this is the issue of should biologically born men be able to compete in women's sports? That's tough. And, you know, I saw the polling here in California. They think you're a traitor for saying this.

But Governor, you were the poster boy for a lot of this stuff. California had a rule that schools cannot be required to notify parents if their kids in school have changed their gender, their pronouns. It makes a lot of people go, well, you know what? That's the party without common sense. Now, if that's your state, how are you?

Well, if you go knocking on his door, it's very easy just to not even answer or just slam it on your face. What I'm thinking about doing is luring him out. And then you come between him and the door, which may give you that precious one line, that question that will hook him. And then he will want to stay outside. And then when he comes out, he doesn't even have to know we're together.

If you think about it for that one moment, let's postulate that he is guilty. Let's assume, let's just for argument's sake say he's guilty. Every breath, every moment is burned in his brain. Right. And to me, this question of the phones is one of the most pivotal points made, because if he found that phone. Right. If he had the phone, that tells us he was in the house.

Tanko Talks, Megyn's Hidden Camera Footage - Part 5 of Megyn Kelly Investigates: Baby Lisa's Disappearance | Ep. 1026
I mean, it tells me he was in the house and he called Megan Wright. And that's why he was going back and forth. Is it advantageous for me to say I found the phones? Or, oh no, I was just lying.
The Megyn Kelly Show
Tanko Talks, Megyn's Hidden Camera Footage - Part 5 of Megyn Kelly Investigates: Baby Lisa's Disappearance | Ep. 1026
And that Megan Wright was dialed. Megan Wright's number was dialed. He had to make it, in my opinion, he had to make a story. Oh, I found the phones. And then he realized it's not his best interest to say he had, oh, I didn't have the phones. Yeah, exactly.

And in retrospect, when you think about it, guys, we were literally in his backyard. He had the high ground. He felt safe. We were in his territory, in his yard while he was up. He felt he was in control.

We could talk all about the questions, but the first phase is getting him to stay. The further away getting him outside that front door gives her more time. Time Time and distance give Megan options because unless we get that engagement, all of this is for naught.

This could be the good... For the sake of just taking the opposite tact, I'm going to be contrary on that. I think the last thing he's going to want to see is you, Megan. And I'm hoping... he's going to get loud. And in his loud, he may say something stupid. If we can get one tenth of what Phil's putting forth, that's TV gold, because this man has never given an interview.

Verdict with Ted Cruz
Bonus Episode: Daily Review with Clay Travis and Buck Sexton
There was a very big story this year. It was in the front page of the New York Times. A woman, I forget her name, and she had done like it was a 10-year study, did not release it on purpose because she said it would weaponize the argument from the other side. So in other words, it came out not the way you wanted the study to come out. Not what you said. It is a mixed bag. That's true.
Verdict with Ted Cruz
Bonus Episode: Daily Review with Clay Travis and Buck Sexton
Some people, yes, it's the right thing. But to take that risk at that age before you know about anything, yes, sometimes it's pretty obvious. It's a very hard call to make. And again, this was a very long study, very thorough, and they wouldn't release it because it came out with the wrong conclusion.
