He can afford it. You and I probably can't afford to potentially lose our jobs and not have another job opportunity until you're out of the news cycle.
Social consequences have never been an issue for Maher however he is now backpedalling as he has already on multiple times occasions demonstrated that he believed white privilege existed! He's a bit full of s.. on that one.
i dont. stupid people deserve to be talked down and condescended to! we've been coddling them long enough! validating their precious feelings and rights to have their own opinions based on nothing but conjecture and "personal truths". where did that get us? do you see what kind of world this turns into where everybody feels safe to express every idiotic brain fart with the knowledge that nobodys gonna call em out on it?
he projects like crazy…..i haven’t subscribed to his channel, watched a few videos, thought i’d give this a try…but think i’ve convinced myself he’s too arrogant for me.
It's more his tone that annoys the fuck out of me. And I say this as a long time fan. I think it's kind of funny that he doesn't watch his podcasts back. Maybe the reason he doesn't like to watch himself, is because he'd have to reflect on his his behavior/attitude - self reflection and introspection can be painful. I also think it's really funny how his podcast seems SOOO overproduced. Part of the pull of podcasts is that they're less produced/fake and Maher just really can't seem to shake his network mentality.
@@vinvin4884 he says things that are in conflict, he’ll mock dems for being woke and judgemental and then he’ll be shallow and judgemental…only guest i’ve seen call him on it was Sean Penn…I ended up liking Sean more than Bill.

I’m happy he’s happy, but it’s a shallow life…but as Jordan Peterson said, I see why no one has married you…oh he says I could have…yea but wouldn’t have managed to stay married…he has a juvenile opinion of marriage…yes things change, and it’s not for everyone, but it is a comfort to have a spouse as you age, they can become your real friend. as you said, it’s his arrogant tone that is off putting…I see an old self absorbed pot head.
I love your podcast! I have mental health issues and really enjoy watching someone who deals with this as well. I love that your Daughter does the podcast with you. Keep bringing all the great guests!!
My parents were married 58 years. My mother turned 80, and now has been brought Home. I miss her more than I thought would be possible, but it's true. She was the glue to our family, and I'm heartbroken 💔 😥 😔 😢😢😢
I’m really enjoying Bill’s “second act”. His show has taken on a renewed energy now that Trump is out of office and he’s great in the long-form podcast format. I think the final years of his career are going to be some of the best.
Would love to see more shows with people having different views discussing real issues calmly with good faith arguments instead of the bad faith point scoring that is so common these days, well done all
My adopted mother was a extroverted and knows no strangers. But one day she asked me if I ever felt lonely. I was puzzled by the questions but I realized what she was asking so I asked her what is lonely feels like. She said to me that when she is alone, she feels alone and nervous. I, Then said, I don’t feel lonely, I enjoy quite time because I like time to think and analyze at the end of the day what I have learned, progress in life, and where it’s going. I, asked her, why wouldn’t anyone like quiet time? Mother then said, she thought I was lonely because I seem to spend time alone, a lot of time. I reminded her that being alone is not a lonely for some people, I happen to be one of them.
As a conservative man of color, I’m a fan of both Bill and Howie. I appreciate conversations like this and I truly enjoy listening to the perspective of others who don’t necessarily align with my political or religious views. I think Howie made a great point when saying there’s a lack of respect. If we just went back to respecting each other no matter political, religious, or sexual beliefs, we could move forward and become a better country at a much quicker pace.
Such an ironic statement since BM shows NOTHING but disrespect for guests who have differing opinions. & goes OFF irrationally at the mere MENTION of DJT
Politics isn’t meaningless. I don’t need to spit in someone’s face for disagreeing over politics but I’m not gonna pretend like it doesn’t matter. You’re wrong to be conservative and it’s also harmful. Truth matters and it’s good to call out lies and toxicity and to not treat it like it’s valid. Tolerating it is what brought our society to the broken state it’s in to begin with:
its a funny place america. i've never been there. but there is a strong need to label oneself. be in christian, or conservative or progressive or white or man of colour. i get it, that its the american way now. But its incredibly divisive for America. It just doesn't happen elsewhere even in other western countries with high immigration. In Australia they push the indigenous agenda but you're only talking about 3% of people max. Everyone else is under the Australian category.
I relate to Bill.... There's no ugliest and saddest feeling in the world than: being tired, feed up, sore and overwhelmed by your work, and still you hate the idea of getting home, because work is somehow better.
Yes,& waiting @ home 4 children & all that that entails! Being a hospice nurse was a privilege but sometimes sad…. Then after resting a bit,go out again & off to my 2nd job bc I had not one penny of child support! I loved every minute of it,though! I was FREE!
Because he's a shallow, egotistical mentally 12 yr old who's life is devoid of any love, emotion, nothing besides his old dull self so work is all he's got. Esp now since the Playboy Club closed
@@DippyHippie well, still having 4 kids when things were probably bad even from early on ? that's on you. I know; it takes along time to Wake Up... maybe that is the real reason we live. just to Learn life lessons and pop back up - hopefully with positive results. been looking from many directions -intellect, esoteric - l landed on a BLEND, as humans will never "figure' it out.
My mom came home one night and told me about a genius comedian she had seen. This dude was razor sharp and was able to recall /and manufacture jokes utilizing the interaction with the audience. She marvelled at Howie's RECALL... Gold from thin air !..like a jazz Kat. Cheers HOWIE!
Bill this might have been your best interview/podcast in that your points almost landed perfectly every time against the canvass Howie set up. Great job fellas.
I love how white folks who have never experienced any kind of prejudice all applaud Maher just because he said one thing that he is contrary to what he said before! Ok so we get it white privilege doesn't exist, racism doesn't exist and ....the earth is flat!! 🙄🙄
Thank you Thank you Thank you Bill Maher for bringing sanity back to this issue. And Thank you Howie for providing the container to hash thru this uncomfortable stuff and being humble enough to be inquisitive and open to different perspectives.
Howie, just wanted to thank you for sharing your Backstory on what caused you to be a germaphobe, given what you endured being able to do all you do in public is remarkable and you inspire others to conquer things that would hold us back in life. Blessings to you and your family.
Howie is a very nice and sweet guy. And his daughter is so beautiful and adorable. Seeing a father and his child together is heartwarming. God Bless!!!
Really? She’s a moron who thinks she’s noble or bold because she stands guard for the “oppressed” she’s the typical daughter of entitlement. She’s the definition of white privilege.
I agree with Bill and his view on the word, "privilege". I, myself, have been homeless, I have been exposed to straight on gun violence & discrimination & bullying for years. I have worked very hard as a former teacher, mechanic, landscaper, and whatever work I could find over the past 25+ years. Privilege /privileged should also not be a negative word. Example: I felt privileged to learn Shaolin Kempo one on one from Master Leo Michaud 28 years ago. We need to stop accusing people of collective guilt. Bill Maher is right on!
I do too. I think of privilege as rich or much better off. So when you say that to white people who live in poverty and tell them they’re privileged is just stupid.
@@ddrebrne3336 Sounds like you're the one with hurt feelings. I don't have the millions that Will Smith or Jay Z has. But I don't blame a whole race for not having those advantages. Will Smith is a talented actor. And I'm sure with his talent, a lot of hard work, and some luck he was able to succeed. Do the world a favor and stop whining.
@@christerry1773 yeah it's to try to point out that on the basis of race, white people suffer less today and it's somehow supported by a) the racist past of the US and b) that, on average, white people do better than black people in the USA which is not a very useful stat when you consider how much variation of success there is in the ethnicities that make up the larger racial groups and/or the fact that americans of asian origin are doing better than everyone else.
I was listening to Lex Fridman's podcast and I recall, I made a comnent regarding White Privilege which was as follows: It only relates to the very wealthy or the very upper middle class which we have very little of due to corporate hegemony or capitalism gone amock and destroying it. Hence, I have to agree with Bill because I frankly think white people who are not coming from the upper echelons of society do NOT have white privilege and may or may not have an advantage. Case in point: After 2 years teaching, a gay, hispanic woman was given tenure and a woman who'd been there over a decade but was straight & white said: She got the position cuz she checked e boxes and I checked only one and they did NOT look at experience. In my case, i was studying paralegal studies while trying for a teaching job and one day a lovely African American co-student told me she'd gotten the job and she apologized. I had a Masters and years of experience domestically and internationally but she--who had NO higher degree or any teaching experience--as had the advantage of being black. So YES the BETTER word to use is advantage. I had NO privilege and due to the city I lived in, I also had no advantage.
Maybe that other person did better than you on the interview, and performed in such a way that suggested they're more qualified than you? Nah, surely they just got it cause they're black.
Rich black people have privilege... Rich white people have privilege.... Poor white people don't have privilege... Poor black people dont have privilege.... Privilege is privilege, and has nothing to do with skin color
You are going to Male woke people crying in their napkins I’m mixed - white and Native American . Do I have privilege or am I a victim due to my past? This conversation is silly
I was raised in South Central LA and listening to Howie and his daughter speak about white privilege bothers me a bit. Im a huge Bill Maher fan after this. I hate the word white privilege because I feel like that handicaps every single person of color and allows them to make an excuse for themselves as to why they’re failing in life. I’m not white and grew up in a very tough neighborhood. What Howie and his daughter don’t understand is what it’s like to grow up in places like that and they never will. When I was in 8th grade all my friends and their older siblings would tell me, being smart was for white people and the gangster life was for us. White people are not to blame for people in those places. It’s the people in those neighborhoods that don’t want to be better and they abuse the system because people that believe in “white privilege” continues to give these people handouts. I had to join the Marine Corps during war time and going to Iraq and Afghanistan was a better option than getting shot in a drive by in my neighborhood. I didn’t want to be born there but that’s what my parents could give me, but I knew one thing. I had to get my family out of there and thanks to the hard work of everyone we got out of there. Very few families want to do that because it’s so much easier to collect a paycheck every month and pay very little for rent. I still have family that lives there and they don’t talk to us because they say we are “white washed” and are too good for them. Such an ignorant mentality to have but people that believe in “white privilege” continues to enable these people to take advantage of the help without the intention of bettering themselves. Very ignorant.
I grew up in South Central, what school did you go to? White privilege is not a word, its a "term", also Bill using "advantage" as a substitute doesn't sound better.
@@TheCrucialQ Charles Drew Middle School and Freemont HS. Call it what you want. To me it’s a word, just like any word in the English language. To you it’s a term, a way of labeling people.
I loved the two of you on Club Random and I loved the two of you here; both so different and yet so similar. Thank you both for allowing us to sit in on your conversations!
I'm white. When I learned to drive I had, "the talk" i.e. common sense behavior when interacting with police during a traffic stop. If all these young black men getting killed by police have "had the talk" why does the police cam footage show them behaving in the opposite manner? They're all on some dumb shit! I have yet to see a young black man getting killed by police who was in full cooperation with the officers request. This talking point has been horseshit ever since they started using it.
Bills better when he’s not stoned! Here they’re having interesting conversation without Bill hijacking the whole thing like he does at Club Random, yet he can never remember what he was talking about.
You don’t have to love one person to be happy. You can love yourself & your family & friends and be very happy! I love being single & would never couple again.
There's so much more at play then race. Howie didn't have to tell his daughter about being pulled over by police. But as a poor child my mom did talk to me if you ever get pulled over turn down the radio, keep your hands on the steering wheel, always be polite, don't argue, don't get an attitude And she would say your young, they don't know you, so they are going to think your up to no good. Never leave home without your license. Howie has money he wasn't in poor neighborhood. Going into stores with it a parent. I would get watched, or get followed. I got questioned. I had a cop tackle me while sitting on the side of the road while talking to his partners because he thought we had drugs in the car. Which we didn't and they had to let us go. But I stayed calm, and polite. It's not always race just other races wouldn't know what others go through if they are watching only what happens to rich white kids. That's what people over look. It's rich and poor that are different and now as an adult I can see why. Because cops don't know what they are walking up on. If your in a bad neighborhood and your actions look suspicious, they have to be in full guard compared to great area's. There's advantages on both sides. If you stop to look. But if your poor your thrown all together.
If a cop tackles you because he THOUGHT you had drugs in the car, he isn't very bright is he? If I was a cop, I'm telling you, I'd be a dirty cop. I'd never arrest anybody for drugs, but I'd take the drugs & the 💰 from drugs and be a straight up Vic Mackey.
Howie, I just want to say that I started seeing you on TV in the 80s or 90s, and then I was not aware of you until "Who wants to be a Millionaire." I didn't understand the bald head, and I wrote you off. I'm very glad you didn't write yourself off, because after watching this and Bill Burr, you have completely won me over. Your retort is very funny, your sensitivity and openness is inspiring, and you daughter is often the smartest person in the room. Congratulations on a life well lived!
I love how bill would immediately point out howie is wrong if he thought something he said was wrong, good to know he doesn’t hold back his opinions even with close friends
Bill hold back his f-ing opinions? If I had a dime for every time Bill held back his opinion, much less beating the mare long past death, I would have a total of zero dimes.
He does that too much at times. But for the most part when it comes to the numbers he’s not wrong. And is totally right about the left media followers, they go by feel facts. Something the right is best known for.
& BM doesn't have the same courtesy. Just shouts down differing opinions. Doesn't have the sense, intellect to want to listen to other opinions. Always thinks his opinion is the only correct one. Definitely sign of an idiot
Really enjoyed this thoughtful discussion. I don’t agree with everything he says but Bill Maher is on my top ten dinner guests list. As a 40+ woman of colour who will probably never get married, I get it man.
I'm white. When I learned to drive I had, "the talk" i.e. common sense behavior when interacting with police during a traffic stop.

Love this! I am a conservative but I never watch Fox News but I won’t miss Bill Maher on his show. He has both sides on his show and though he may not always agree with his guest I love being able to hear both sides. Plus, I have to agree on his criticism of both sides. They are both ridiculous! Howie, I have watched you for all the years you have been in show business. You are FANTASTIC and absolutely adorable and funny! I have always been a huge fan. I so enjoyed just sitting in on your conversation. Your daughter is a beauty and smart. I love you doing this as a family. That makes your show even better so keep up the good work👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
Spoiler alert: You're not a conservative. You might have a view or two towards the conservative side, but I guarantee you that you're not a conservative.
I am one of the small percentage of women the same generation as Bill and Howie that never believed in marriage. Bill's way of thinking is almost identical to mine... I always enjoyed my "freedom" and independence and never wanted to have children...I am a very loving person who has had long term relationships but always saw them get to the unbearably unhappy road that needed to change for my own and my partners mental state. So hey Bill, great women your age who think like you DO exist ... I wish you a magical year :D
I am a never in. I found your channel and have watched since that day. Please, please continue the great work you do for so many. You are a good man with a great heart. ❤
Uhm no. Howie is not on the same intellectual level as Bill. Someone that thinks the stock market is a "ponzi scheme" is not fit to hang with Bill. Oh yeah, and he seems to think a Ponzi scheme is OK. Jesus.
I’m not black and ever since I got my license when I get pull over I go straight into military mode only answered when I’m being told by the cops. My answers would be yes sir, no sir, ok sir, and thank you sir ending with good night sir. That’s how both parties can drive away safely with no harm to anyone. It was never as bout race until toxic people manipulated it into race.
It’s not so much about race as it is about black culture - it can be disarming for some white cops who live in entire different suburban zip codes than the ones they police. Which is why they need better training, and black neighborhoods should have community policing by folks who actually live in their communities.
Just started watching these podcast, an have enjoyed them, an Bill definitely was not afraid to say what was on his mind about what he spent his life doing. An Howie was able to go back and forth like adults. Good stuff.
Great interview. Im of the same generation as you and Bill, so get both sides. Great respect for how Bill takes in all in...he isn't a coward that's for sure! thanks for letting him talk. Absolutely..humans are not good people! bang on...
If there's white privilege then you have to agree there is handsome privilege, beautiful privilege, money privilege, and black privilege especially in sports. But it's life. Deal with it.
Its white culture, vs all others. If a culture creates wealth and prosperity thru productivity and delayed gratification, how is it evil, simply because other cultures value irrational violence and destruction and refuse to be productive toward a societal goal of reduced crime and better education? Reality is a harsh mistress. And Reason is Mankind's only tool of survival. To the extent that an individual or culture of people is irrational, they will be punished by the universe and everything around them.
If you are UNWILLINGLY single, then yes. If you live in an area with the most beautiful and talented working ladies of the night and have a million dollar a month income, only a neanderthal or christian man would sign that line of misery and despair.
I only wish Bill had asked Howie's daughter about how and why she wants to defund the police. I could only hope she would have a better argument than her dad.
This is Bill Maher at his best. Howie brings out the best in everyone. I'd point out some of my favorite parts, but I'll have to watch this a few hundred more times before I can even decide. Thanks guys. 🤗😘🥰
One thing we are missing is that too many people don’t always follow logic, don’t know if it’s intentional or unintentional. You can’t debate or discuss things out with people who just want to win, regardless of logic.
So glad to stumble upon Howie. I live in a small rural community and I watched a couple of these kids grow up to be cops. I remember them from team sports and school activities, watched them get married, have them as neighbors. They were so reasonable and kind with my rowdy sons. Let's get the full data set re: police brutality. Additionally, the cops were a lot cooler when I grew up in Pasadena during the 70's.
Bill sounds like an old soul, like many children born after 2000. Yes there were a few in the 1940s-50s after WWII. He was just aware of many things that many children were not. This was considered a gifted child by many parents. Bill is not as rare as many may think. He is just outspoken about it. Way to go BILL!!!!
I absolutely the two of you together. It’s a riot! Podcasting is my favorite thing to listen to. You can learn so much that is why it is hated by our loving government. They don’t want us to be happy or well. But anyways, I’ve found another favorite of the week😜💪🏻 I grew up to Howie. First comedian I ever saw as a child. On tv or course lol But I was odd like him, still am. And he made it ok to be different. And would love to pick his brain someday. I feel comedy is what I’m suppose to be doing but I’ve stayed in my house for the past twelve years and well, I thought Howie would understand how to get me out of the house again🤣🤣🤣💪🏻 I love you all more than you know. And I’m serious about help with Howie🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
As a a 27 year old man with a great full time job, no kids and no LtR I really resonate with bills stance on relationships. You always have hope each day when you wake up. Whereas in a relationship you do not
Oooo yessss! Another Avoidant psycho out of the DNA gene pool! It doesn't get any better than Darwinism at it's finest! Strong work Nolan, keep up the good work and stay single and childless so that your gene pool will dry up for the good of the human race.
He has more choices than you most men don't get to be selfish all their life's unless they're worth billions, If I was worth billions, I wouldn't get married either🤣🤣🤣🤣. Make some kids if you can dude, they'll make you happy someday,
@@scottnorton4256 agreed! But i also think having kids is awesome and america has lied about how it sucks to be a parent. if i was a millionaire i would not marry either
I feel people more often these days willfully misunderstand what others say- especially if that person disagrees with them. Even if I don't agree with everything he says I love listening to Bill Maher talk. Great episode.
Privilege is when you are entitled to something or it’s given to you. Advantage is where you have a better chance. It isn’t given a white personal will be let go for a crime. It isn’t given you’ll go to a better school or get a better job. There is still some work involved to obtain something you have the advantage in, privilege, it’s just handed to you without work. That’s the difference and I think what bill would have explained without interruption.
Can’t deny any of that, but I remember when Maher was a seething sanctimonious prick and was a really loud pretentious asshole about it. Both are Hollywood millionaires patting each other’s back. Shocking
I love the point out the police killings. People on Howie’s side literally pull numbers out of their ass. Feel facts, which is ironic isn’t it….because that’s well known to be a right wing thing.
it is wonderful to watch a child watch her father converse with another adult. Good job on raising her to adulthood Howie and wife. kudos to her for being so polite. Thank you
I just found this show. this is the 2nd episode I've watched. I think Bill hits it right on the head with there is no community or that we've lost communal relations. It would be a great talking point for tons of shows/pod cast to talk about... what happened to that. I'm a 1986 kid and there are things I grew up with that I feel just don't exist anymore. Like single songs in a car as a family on trips.
Privilege sold to us by the crazy left like some kind of stain on our souls that no amount of apology or good behavior could ever remove. It's like being born into a state of sin in Christianity, except one which can never be removed.
what Bill Maher meant to say is that having an advantage is just that, an advantage, someone with privilege feels entitled, having the right to, or just a guaranteed result I may have an advantage of not getting shot but i do not have the privilege
Advantage is malleable. Privilege isn't. A black woman not getting a job on an all white podcast is the same as a white woman not getting a job on an all black podcast. Those are situational advantages. Neither of these women would get a job on Howie's podcast because his daughter has the job through nepotism. Howie's daughter being his co-host is privilege.
So nice to hear someone's reasoning without fear of social consequences.
Unarmed civilians of each race are killed exactly proportional to the amount of violent crime that race commits. The cops don't control that. They are a scapegoat.
Indeed
He can afford it. You and I probably can't afford to potentially lose our jobs and not have another job opportunity until you're out of the news cycle.
Social consequences have never been an issue for Maher however he is now backpedalling as he has already on multiple times occasions demonstrated that he believed white privilege existed! He's a bit full of s.. on that one.
Yes!
Howie, you are the sweetest and most genuine person. I love the positive affirmation you give your guest.
Bill Maher's discussion of women and relationships is intelligent. I am female and I agree with his logic. Howie, try to keep up.
Ugh. I get so annoyed with Bill's arrogance and condescending tone. Yet, I continue to watch his content. I have a love-hate relationship with him.
i dont. stupid people deserve to be talked down and condescended to! we've been coddling them long enough! validating their precious feelings and rights to have their own opinions based on nothing but conjecture and "personal truths". where did that get us? do you see what kind of world this turns into where everybody feels safe to express every idiotic brain fart with the knowledge that nobodys gonna call em out on it?
he projects like crazy…..i haven’t subscribed to his channel, watched a few videos, thought i’d give this a try…but think i’ve convinced myself he’s too arrogant for me.
Meh, it's just his personality. I'm indifferent to it.
It's more his tone that annoys the fuck out of me. And I say this as a long time fan.
I think it's kind of funny that he doesn't watch his podcasts back. Maybe the reason he doesn't like to watch himself, is because he'd have to reflect on his his behavior/attitude - self reflection and introspection can be painful.
I also think it's really funny how his podcast seems SOOO overproduced. Part of the pull of podcasts is that they're less produced/fake and Maher just really can't seem to shake his network mentality.
@@vinvin4884 he says things that are in conflict, he’ll mock dems for being woke and judgemental and then he’ll be shallow and judgemental…only guest i’ve seen call him on it was Sean Penn…I ended up liking Sean more than Bill.

its nice to see Bill Maher be able to talk through his ideas for longer then 1min like we get on Real Time. He has a good head on his shoulders
I know right?! That tv model is a joke and outdated.
Hard to watch the old rushed standard format after watching/listening to podcasts. The laugh track on sitcoms is over the top.
Yeah real time sucks.
Everything about it is broken.
I know right. Especially without that stupid audience clapping every 5 words
@@christerry1773 whoever the is idiot that holds up that sign 🪧 for the audience to clap should be tried for crimes against humanity!
I'm slightly amazed at Bill's simple yet perfect description of addiction... 'It calls you to it, and it's not asking'. Spot on.
Yeah. That's me and biscuits. 😂😂😂😂
Hahahaha, that's food to me.
This was the best Bill Maher interview i’ve ever seen. Howie and Bill really have amazing chemistry together…
You earned yourself a new subscriber
I’m really enjoying Bill’s “second act”. His show has taken on a renewed energy now that Trump is out of office and he’s great in the long-form podcast format. I think the final years of his career are going to be some of the best.
Would love to see more shows with people having different views discussing real issues calmly with good faith arguments instead of the bad faith point scoring that is so common these days, well done all

Black disadvantage vs white privilege
Glad someone brought it up
There are more then just black and white people
My adopted mother was a extroverted and knows no strangers. But one day she asked me if I ever felt lonely. I was puzzled by the questions but I realized what she was asking so I asked her what is lonely feels like. She said to me that when she is alone, she feels alone and nervous. I, Then said, I don’t feel lonely, I enjoy quite time because I like time to think and analyze at the end of the day what I have learned, progress in life, and where it’s going. I, asked her, why wouldn’t anyone like quiet time? Mother then said, she thought I was lonely because I seem to spend time alone, a lot of time. I reminded her that being alone is not a lonely for some people, I happen to be one of them.
As a conservative man of color, I’m a fan of both Bill and Howie. I appreciate conversations like this and I truly enjoy listening to the perspective of others who don’t necessarily align with my political or religious views. I think Howie made a great point when saying there’s a lack of respect. If we just went back to respecting each other no matter political, religious, or sexual beliefs, we could move forward and become a better country at a much quicker pace.
Sir, this country is going the way of the Rome Empire.
What we've lost is "dignity." If we still had any dignity, respect would flow from it. We've become a nation of vulgar, rowdy, insulting brutes.
Such an ironic statement since BM shows NOTHING but disrespect for guests who have differing opinions. & goes OFF irrationally at the mere MENTION of DJT
Politics isn’t meaningless. I don’t need to spit in someone’s face for disagreeing over politics but I’m not gonna pretend like it doesn’t matter. You’re wrong to be conservative and it’s also harmful. Truth matters and it’s good to call out lies and toxicity and to not treat it like it’s valid. Tolerating it is what brought our society to the broken state it’s in to begin with:
its a funny place america. i've never been there. but there is a strong need to label oneself. be in christian, or conservative or progressive or white or man of colour. i get it, that its the american way now. But its incredibly divisive for America. It just doesn't happen elsewhere even in other western countries with high immigration. In Australia they push the indigenous agenda but you're only talking about 3% of people max. Everyone else is under the Australian category.
I relate to Bill.... There's no ugliest and saddest feeling in the world than: being tired, feed up, sore and overwhelmed by your work, and still you hate the idea of getting home, because work is somehow better.
Well said 👍
Yes,& waiting @ home 4 children & all that that entails! Being a hospice nurse was a privilege but sometimes sad…. Then after resting a bit,go out again & off to my 2nd job bc I had not one penny of child support! I loved every minute of it,though! I was FREE!
Because he's a shallow, egotistical mentally 12 yr old who's life is devoid of any love, emotion, nothing besides his old dull self so work is all he's got. Esp now since the Playboy Club closed
yes, on both sides
@@DippyHippie
well, still having 4 kids when things were probably bad even from early on ? that's on you. I know; it takes along time to Wake Up... maybe that is the real reason we live. just to Learn life lessons and pop back up - hopefully with positive results. been looking from many directions -intellect, esoteric - l landed on a BLEND, as humans will never "figure' it out.
Bill is so right about everything he says.
My mom came home one night and told me about a genius comedian she had seen. This dude was razor sharp and was able to recall /and manufacture jokes utilizing the interaction with the audience. She marvelled at Howie's RECALL... Gold from thin air !..like a jazz Kat. Cheers HOWIE!
Bill this might have been your best interview/podcast in that your points almost landed perfectly every time against the canvass Howie set up. Great job fellas.
This is because.... they're REALLY GOOD PEOPLE, PERIOD
I love how white folks who have never experienced any kind of prejudice all applaud Maher just because he said one thing that he is contrary to what he said before! Ok so we get it white privilege doesn't exist, racism doesn't exist and ....the earth is flat!! 🙄🙄
You should watch all of Bill's channels
Thank you Thank you Thank you Bill Maher for bringing sanity back to this issue. And Thank you Howie for providing the container to hash thru this uncomfortable stuff and being humble enough to be inquisitive and open to different perspectives.
Howie, just wanted to thank you for sharing your Backstory on what caused you to be a germaphobe, given what you endured being able to do all you do in public is remarkable and you inspire others to conquer things that would hold us back in life. Blessings to you and your family.
Howie is a very nice and sweet guy. And his daughter is so beautiful and adorable. Seeing a father and his child together is heartwarming. God Bless!!!
Shes completely delusional about life
What did she add to the show???? I felt the few times she spoke up she interrupting the conversation, not adding to it!!!
Really? She’s a moron who thinks she’s noble or bold because she stands guard for the “oppressed” she’s the typical daughter of entitlement. She’s the definition of white privilege.
@@kathie9842yeah n she’s snarky n condescending
I agree with Bill and his view on the word, "privilege". I, myself, have been homeless, I have been exposed to straight on gun violence & discrimination & bullying for years. I have worked very hard as a former teacher, mechanic, landscaper, and whatever work I could find over the past 25+ years. Privilege /privileged should also not be a negative word. Example: I felt privileged to learn Shaolin Kempo one on one from Master Leo Michaud 28 years ago. We need to stop accusing people of collective guilt. Bill Maher is right on!
I do too. I think of privilege as rich or much better off. So when you say that to white people who live in poverty and tell them they’re privileged is just stupid.
Then you see privilege in a way that won't hurt your little white feelings.
@@ddrebrne3336 stop being racist!
@@ddrebrne3336 Sounds like you're the one with hurt feelings. I don't have the millions that Will Smith or Jay Z has. But I don't blame a whole race for not having those advantages. Will Smith is a talented actor. And I'm sure with his talent, a lot of hard work, and some luck he was able to succeed. Do the world a favor and stop whining.
@@christerry1773 yeah it's to try to point out that on the basis of race, white people suffer less today and it's somehow supported by a) the racist past of the US and b) that, on average, white people do better than black people in the USA which is not a very useful stat when you consider how much variation of success there is in the ethnicities that make up the larger racial groups and/or the fact that americans of asian origin are doing better than everyone else.
I was listening to Lex Fridman's podcast and I recall, I made a comnent regarding White Privilege which was as follows:
It only relates to the very wealthy or the very upper middle class which we have very little of due to corporate hegemony or capitalism gone amock and destroying it. Hence, I have to agree with Bill because I frankly think white people who are not coming from the upper echelons of society do NOT have white privilege and may or may not have an advantage.
Case in point: After 2 years teaching, a gay, hispanic woman was given tenure and a woman who'd been there over a decade but was straight & white said: She got the position cuz she checked e boxes and I checked only one and they did NOT look at experience. In my case, i was studying paralegal studies while trying for a teaching job and one day a lovely African American co-student told me she'd gotten the job and she apologized. I had a Masters and years of experience domestically and internationally but she--who had NO higher degree or any teaching experience--as had the advantage of being black.
So YES the BETTER word to use is advantage. I had NO privilege and due to the city I lived in, I also had no advantage.
Lex Fridman is a dork pretending to be smart by wearing a tuxedo.
Watch out, you are making too much sense, for some modern 3rd wave softies out there
Maybe that other person did better than you on the interview, and performed in such a way that suggested they're more qualified than you?
Nah, surely they just got it cause they're black.
Rich black people have privilege...
Rich white people have privilege....
Poor white people don't have privilege...
Poor black people dont have privilege....
Privilege is privilege, and has nothing to do with skin color
You are going to
Male woke people crying in their napkins
I’m mixed - white and Native American . Do I have privilege or am I a victim due to my past? This conversation is silly
Bill Maher is the Man.👍
I was raised in South Central LA and listening to Howie and his daughter speak about white privilege bothers me a bit. Im a huge Bill Maher fan after this. I hate the word white privilege because I feel like that handicaps every single person of color and allows them to make an excuse for themselves as to why they’re failing in life. I’m not white and grew up in a very tough neighborhood. What Howie and his daughter don’t understand is what it’s like to grow up in places like that and they never will. When I was in 8th grade all my friends and their older siblings would tell me, being smart was for white people and the gangster life was for us. White people are not to blame for people in those places. It’s the people in those neighborhoods that don’t want to be better and they abuse the system because people that believe in “white privilege” continues to give these people handouts. I had to join the Marine Corps during war time and going to Iraq and Afghanistan was a better option than getting shot in a drive by in my neighborhood. I didn’t want to be born there but that’s what my parents could give me, but I knew one thing. I had to get my family out of there and thanks to the hard work of everyone we got out of there. Very few families want to do that because it’s so much easier to collect a paycheck every month and pay very little for rent. I still have family that lives there and they don’t talk to us because they say we are “white washed” and are too good for them. Such an ignorant mentality to have but people that believe in “white privilege” continues to enable these people to take advantage of the help without the intention of bettering themselves. Very ignorant.
I grew up in South Central, what school did you go to?
White privilege is not a word, its a "term", also Bill using "advantage" as a substitute doesn't sound better.
@@TheCrucialQ Charles Drew Middle School and Freemont HS. Call it what you want. To me it’s a word, just like any word in the English language. To you it’s a term, a way of labeling people.
Thank you for your service Mr Aguirre, God bless you
@@neilrigdon8197 thank you sir very much appreciated.
👏👏👏👏👏
Good interview.
I loved the two of you on Club Random and I loved the two of you here; both so different and yet so similar. Thank you both for allowing us to sit in on your conversations!
I'm white. When I learned to drive I had, "the talk" i.e. common sense behavior when interacting with police during a traffic stop.
If all these young black men getting killed by police have "had the talk" why does the police cam footage show them behaving in the opposite manner? They're all on some dumb shit! I have yet to see a young black man getting killed by police who was in full cooperation with the officers request. This talking point has been horseshit ever since they started using it.
Bills better when he’s not stoned! Here they’re having interesting conversation without Bill hijacking the whole thing like he does at Club Random, yet he can never remember what he was talking about.
Howie, I love your daughter! She is insightful, patient and smart! How wonderful for y'all to be together this way.❤
I agree. She has Howie's smile too.
You don’t have to love one person to be happy. You can love yourself & your family & friends and be very happy! I love being single & would never couple again.
There's so much more at play then race. Howie didn't have to tell his daughter about being pulled over by police. But as a poor child my mom did talk to me if you ever get pulled over turn down the radio, keep your hands on the steering wheel, always be polite, don't argue, don't get an attitude
And she would say your young, they don't know you, so they are going to think your up to no good. Never leave home without your license. Howie has money he wasn't in poor neighborhood. Going into stores with it a parent. I would get watched, or get followed. I got questioned. I had a cop tackle me while sitting on the side of the road while talking to his partners because he thought we had drugs in the car. Which we didn't and they had to let us go. But I stayed calm, and polite. It's not always race just other races wouldn't know what others go through if they are watching only what happens to rich white kids.
That's what people over look. It's rich and poor that are different and now as an adult I can see why. Because cops don't know what they are walking up on. If your in a bad neighborhood and your actions look suspicious, they have to be in full guard compared to great area's.
There's advantages on both sides. If you stop to look. But if your poor your thrown all together.
If a cop tackles you because he THOUGHT you had drugs in the car, he isn't very bright is he? If I was a cop, I'm telling you, I'd be a dirty cop.
I'd never arrest anybody for drugs, but I'd take the drugs & the 💰 from drugs and be a straight up Vic Mackey.
maybe he didn't think he had to but he should have.
I LOVE Bill Maher!!!!
Bill is much better when he's not stoned or drunk (or both)...
I agree!!!!
Agreed
I love how Bill Maher speaks it out. No matter how uncomfortable. He tells it like it is.
hes rich. and old.
@@rafewheadon1963 and?
I liked the interaction between Bill and Howie, but Jackelyn (sp?) was a useless contribution.
@@antonellag9771 I agree with this.
He can be a bit much at times, and overly arrogant. BUT….He has a extremely balanced and accurate portrayal of the realities of politics.
Howie, I just want to say that I started seeing you on TV in the 80s or 90s, and then I was not aware of you until "Who wants to be a Millionaire." I didn't understand the bald head, and I wrote you off. I'm very glad you didn't write yourself off, because after watching this and Bill Burr, you have completely won me over. Your retort is very funny, your sensitivity and openness is inspiring, and you daughter is often the smartest person in the room. Congratulations on a life well lived!
Howie: “Does your sister have children?”
Bill: “Not to my knowledge”
Love em or hate em, but Bill Maher is 100# real!
I love how bill would immediately point out howie is wrong if he thought something he said was wrong, good to know he doesn’t hold back his opinions even with close friends
Bill hold back his f-ing opinions?
If I had a dime for every time Bill held back his opinion, much less beating the mare long past death, I would have a total of zero dimes.
He does that too much at times. But for the most part when it comes to the numbers he’s not wrong. And is totally right about the left media followers, they go by feel facts. Something the right is best known for.
isn't it what close friends usually do? Nothing exceptional here!
@@showtime951 you got the right he shamed howard at the club random at the end of the show. ugh....
& BM doesn't have the same courtesy. Just shouts down differing opinions. Doesn't have the sense, intellect to want to listen to other opinions. Always thinks his opinion is the only correct one. Definitely sign of an idiot
Really enjoyed this thoughtful discussion. I don’t agree with everything he says but Bill Maher is on my top ten dinner guests list. As a 40+ woman of colour who will probably never get married, I get it man.
If I wasn’t married, I would try my best to learn more about you. Actually, that sounds wrong, because I do want to learn more about you
I'm white. When I learned to drive I had, "the talk" i.e. common sense behavior when interacting with police during a traffic stop.

I like the way Bill talks about people and life in a realistic way.
Love this! I am a conservative but I never watch Fox News but I won’t miss Bill Maher on his show. He has both sides on his show and though he may not always agree with his guest I love being able to hear both sides. Plus, I have to agree on his criticism of both sides. They are both ridiculous! Howie, I have watched you for all the years you have been in show business. You are FANTASTIC and absolutely adorable and funny! I have always been a huge fan. I so enjoyed just sitting in on your conversation. Your daughter is a beauty and smart. I love you doing this as a family. That makes your show even better so keep up the good work👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
fair enough, but don't get stuck at fox news. its cancer.
Bill Maher may as well be a republican now. Most of these guys hate all the woke garbage
Howie is as real mensch.
Spoiler alert: You're not a conservative. You might have a view or two towards the conservative side, but I guarantee you that you're not a conservative.
i bet u just someone cannot getting any women envious to bill. fuck off
Really like these interactions between Maher and Mandel, hope they do more in the future.
What an amazing interviewer Howie is. Bill would not be easy because he will not lay down who he is for anyone
Depends. On real time Bill only has a few minutes to talk to guests. I like his show but I like his long format discussions more.
What I love about Bill is that he knows who he is and doesn’t apologize for it. 👌
I love Bill Maher. I wish I was one of the few people that got to hang out on a weekend and have a drink and talk life.
Bill is always so interesting. I enjoyed hearing a different side of him and kinda how he thinks about life, marriage etc..
I am one of the small percentage of women the same generation as Bill and Howie that never believed in marriage. Bill's way of thinking is almost identical to mine... I always enjoyed my "freedom" and independence and never wanted to have children...I am a very loving person who has had long term relationships but always saw them get to the unbearably unhappy road that needed to change for my own and my partners mental state. So hey Bill, great women your age who think like you DO exist ... I wish you a magical year :D
Bill Maher is a realist
I am a never in. I found your channel and have watched since that day. Please, please continue the great work you do for so many. You are a good man with a great heart. ❤
Howie and Bill work SOOOOO well together. It’s amazing. It’s really disappointing they don’t have a show together that airs regularly : (
Uhm no. Howie is not on the same intellectual level as Bill. Someone that thinks the stock market is a "ponzi scheme" is not fit to hang with Bill. Oh yeah, and he seems to think a Ponzi scheme is OK. Jesus.
fully agree!!! 💯
enjoy the chemistry of this 3...
Bill owned Howie
I’m not black and ever since I got my license when I get pull over I go straight into military mode only answered when I’m being told by the cops. My answers would be yes sir, no sir, ok sir, and thank you sir ending with good night sir. That’s how both parties can drive away safely with no harm to anyone. It was never as bout race until toxic people manipulated it into race.
It’s not so much about race as it is about black culture - it can be disarming for some white cops who live in entire different suburban zip codes than the ones they police. Which is why they need better training, and black neighborhoods should have community policing by folks who actually live in their communities.
Black and brown people get pulled over way more frequently than other people do.
Just started watching these podcast, an have enjoyed them, an Bill definitely was not afraid to say what was on his mind about what he spent his life doing. An Howie was able to go back and forth like adults. Good stuff.
A different take? Aye, WE do too! It's better known as "Jewish" privilege.
Love you Bill Maher ! I love being alone too even after being widowed 14 years after being happily married for 18 years ! I so relate to you .
What an unexpected great conversation, Bill Maher & Howie Mandel, great stuff, "real" conversation. Thanks to you both...
Would be even better if his doughter was not there...
That's understandable you are a pos
@@mm.dandy.lion.ess.144 his daughter is your typical young semi woke person reciting the same tired talking points
I second the viewpoint about the daughter. Big Howie fan but Bill shined on this one. He cut right through the youngster CNN talking points.
Great interview. Im of the same generation as you and Bill, so get both sides. Great respect for how Bill takes in all in...he isn't a coward that's for sure! thanks for letting him talk. Absolutely..humans are not good people! bang on...
This was a lot better than the Club Random interview, in my opinion.
Beautiful and respectful conversations. I hope for more of this in the future.
If there's white privilege then you have to agree there is handsome privilege, beautiful privilege, money privilege, and black privilege especially in sports. But it's life. Deal with it.
You say it until you have to deal with it yourself.
@@RocStarr913 well I'm glad he admitted white privilege actually exists, because the issue is most white folks try to convince the world it doesn't ..
True on all
Its white culture, vs all others.
If a culture creates wealth and prosperity thru productivity and delayed gratification, how is it evil, simply because other cultures value irrational violence and destruction and refuse to be productive toward a societal goal of reduced crime and better education?
Reality is a harsh mistress. And Reason is Mankind's only tool of survival. To the extent that an individual or culture of people is irrational, they will be punished by the universe and everything around them.
i agree, i love being alone. and Bill is so right on...same headspace!
Can Howie let Bill finish his sentences?
Getting exhausted hearing Howie ask questions and then interrupting him 🙄🥱
Can't wait for Bill and Tucker!
People can try to twist it anyway they want but the truth is that if you’re single in your 50s, there is something wrong with YOU.
He's 66.
If you are UNWILLINGLY single, then yes.
If you live in an area with the most beautiful and talented working ladies of the night and have a million dollar a month income, only a neanderthal or christian man would sign that line of misery and despair.
Good program content. These are things that need to be said!
Great interview! Always love Howie, and man Bill is on point as usual. Love how Bill is genuine and true to self and speaks his mind, just awesome!
First time viewer here. Just wanted to say you guys are great and your Chemistry will Bill is fantastic. This is what we need more of.
I like how he didn't deny dating girls in their 20s
He also didnt deny he's smoking pot...
How weird is it for them to date Him? lol
@@fourdotsYT It's called prostitution.
@@maxmeier532 I don't think dating is the right word then, right.
Can you blame him?
I only wish Bill had asked Howie's daughter about how and why she wants to defund the police. I could only hope she would have a better argument than her dad.
This is Bill Maher at his best. Howie brings out the best in everyone. I'd point out some of my favorite parts, but I'll have to watch this a few hundred more times before I can even decide. Thanks guys. 🤗😘🥰
howie sounded like a total idiot
I love Bill, such a good, sane, interview.
Loved this, very real conversation between intelligent and funny people
And Bill Maher was there!
Love this... Now I got to start listening to your podcast!
One thing we are missing is that too many people don’t always follow logic, don’t know if it’s intentional or unintentional. You can’t debate or discuss things out with people who just want to win, regardless of logic.
& that describes BM to a "T"
So glad to stumble upon Howie. I live in a small rural community and I watched a couple of these kids grow up to be cops. I remember them from team sports and school activities, watched them get married, have them as neighbors. They were so reasonable and kind with my rowdy sons. Let's get the full data set re: police brutality. Additionally, the cops were a lot cooler when I grew up in Pasadena during the 70's.
I'm glad everyone kept their cool while stepping in mucky subjects. Good conversation all.
You obviously have no life
They are coming from very similar perspectives.
I really enjoyed this conversation!
Bill sounds like an old soul, like many children born after 2000. Yes there were a few in the 1940s-50s after WWII. He was just aware of many things that many children were not. This was considered a gifted child by many parents. Bill is not as rare as many may think. He is just outspoken about it. Way to go BILL!!!!
Hes a baby boomer.. those people are cool
@@thamailman8170 yes, we are!
I absolutely the two of you together. It’s a riot! Podcasting is my favorite thing to listen to. You can learn so much that is why it is hated by our loving government. They don’t want us to be happy or well. But anyways, I’ve found another favorite of the week😜💪🏻 I grew up to Howie. First comedian I ever saw as a child. On tv or course lol But I was odd like him, still am. And he made it ok to be different. And would love to pick his brain someday. I feel comedy is what I’m suppose to be doing but I’ve stayed in my house for the past twelve years and well, I thought Howie would understand how to get me out of the house again🤣🤣🤣💪🏻 I love you all more than you know. And I’m serious about help with Howie🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I absolutely the two of them together, too. You put that so well.
@@vickielawson3114 oh shut up
As a a 27 year old man with a great full time job, no kids and no LtR I really resonate with bills stance on relationships. You always have hope each day when you wake up. Whereas in a relationship you do not

I feel people more often these days willfully misunderstand what others say- especially if that person disagrees with them.
Even if I don't agree with everything he says I love listening to Bill Maher talk. Great episode.
First time caller. Long time listener.😉 I'm in the same decade of age. I enjoy what you both do. Thanks man!
It was awesome that you had him on your show. You’re a good man.
I have a new respect for Howie I thought I hated him I actually like him alot after seeing how he presented himself
Privilege is when you are entitled to something or it’s given to you. Advantage is where you have a better chance. It isn’t given a white personal will be let go for a crime. It isn’t given you’ll go to a better school or get a better job. There is still some work involved to obtain something you have the advantage in, privilege, it’s just handed to you without work. That’s the difference and I think what bill would have explained without interruption.
props
Well put 👍
"and that's a bullshit talking point also" well said!
Howie great podcast with Bill Maher is really enjoyed listening to what you both offered in your conversation together 1:03:18
this was so good again... i vote bill as a reoccurring guest!
Howie is sanctimonious; and to make matters worse, is all talk, no action. Also, he talks out of his ass quite a lot. Love how Bill calls him out.
Can’t deny any of that, but I remember when Maher was a seething sanctimonious prick and was a really loud pretentious asshole about it. Both are Hollywood millionaires patting each other’s back. Shocking
Agreed. All he can do is interupt Bill, ironically and annoyingly when Bill is trying to make a point.
I love the point out the police killings. People on Howie’s side literally pull numbers out of their ass. Feel facts, which is ironic isn’t it….because that’s well known to be a right wing thing.
Be fair, though: At least Howie is open to hearing someone else’s perspective and is open to hearing criticism. I think he deserves credit for that.
@@mkfd4571 That’s definitely a fair and valid point. I agree.
Bill, I will come right in the end and feed you soup. 😂
it is wonderful to watch a child watch her father converse with another adult. Good job on raising her to adulthood Howie and wife. kudos to her for being so polite. Thank you
props
The best of Bill Maher ever! Thanks, Howie.
I just found this show. this is the 2nd episode I've watched. I think Bill hits it right on the head with there is no community or that we've lost communal relations. It would be a great talking point for tons of shows/pod cast to talk about... what happened to that. I'm a 1986 kid and there are things I grew up with that I feel just don't exist anymore. Like single songs in a car as a family on trips.
Good hearing real conversations , power is in listening to all sides before you start canceling 😞
Bill seemed exceptionally prickly during this interview. I like it.
BILL MAHER IS CORRECT.
ADVANTAGE is like a head start in a race, while PRIVILEGE is winning the race based on not running at all.
Privilege sold to us by the crazy left like some kind of stain on our souls that no amount of apology or good behavior could ever remove. It's like being born into a state of sin in Christianity, except one which can never be removed.
Well said
Bill seems like the only guy in Hollywood with common sense on this issue.
what Bill Maher meant to say is that having an advantage is just that, an advantage, someone with privilege feels entitled, having the right to, or just a guaranteed result
I may have an advantage of not getting shot but i do not have the privilege
Amazing conversation, first time listener, came over from Maher’s podcast.
I am from that era born in the later 50s here in Australia and we lived in a house and land package village. 🤗😎😵🤓🧐
Bill, you’re a national treasure. Not having kids means no more Bill Mahers. The world needs you. Let your line continue.
Love the honesty and intelligence of Bill Maher. Wonderful podcast Howie!!
Intelligence???!!!😂😂😂😂
Advantage is malleable. Privilege isn't. A black woman not getting a job on an all white podcast is the same as a white woman not getting a job on an all black podcast. Those are situational advantages.
Neither of these women would get a job on Howie's podcast because his daughter has the job through nepotism.
Howie's daughter being his co-host is privilege.
