That was the best Overtime EVER - and I have seen them all, literally. Bill, invite guests that are willing to debate, and give them their space, then a great discussion like this will be the result. Also, run Overtime longer, like this one. 8-9 mins is too short...
This is how the Televised debates like CNN and FOX holds should be like. People arguing over their ideas, making points, finding common ground and understanding, and agreeing to disagree sometimes. Then, in the end of it all, shake hands and respect each other. CNN and FOX have shouting matches where the host continuously tries to be the loudest and claims to be the most true.
I'm Russian and I have yet to meet one Russian living in the U.S. who isn't a conservative. Maybe it's cuz they have PTSD from living in the socialist communist USSR. It explains why Kasparov is so serious. Dude means business. I wanted to hear more of what he had to say.
Garry Kasparov was right on money. Bill Maher's isolationism and lack of human compassion makes me sick. There are rogue actors and terrorists in the world and they must be confronted, not ignored. When you do nothing against evil and sit on the sidelines, you allow evil to flourish and eventually it will come right back to you.
TheSasss1 Bill just takes the disgust at our involvement and the problems its caused abroad too far. He thinks that because we can't do EVERYTHING and solve EVERY problem means we can't and should not try to do anything. That of course, does not follow.
TheSasss1 I can see Maher's point of view very well, especially since the major fuck ups US has caused in Mid East. But US needs to stand up when major injustice in the world happens, Bosnia is good example, and Kasparov bringing up US tanks in Estonia and Latvia is a good example. Without NATO and US, both Estonia and Latvia would be easy target for Putin, Putin would grab Baltics back to his sick Novorussija in a heartbeat, right now he isn't taking the gamble.. and that is because to US!
TheSasss1 Totally agreed. Maher is totally clueless on many things. Especially when he speak about Europe. He's so out of touch, I highly doubt he could find Europe on a map. But then again, his best argument 'Garry, shut up!' is enough for some people.
TheSasss1 lol Bill Maher didn't even know who had control of the Congress and Senate hahahaha .. WTF Liberals and Conservatives have wrecked this country PERIOD! I mean god damn, as adults we can see these fools are just winging it ... And Iran is a Big Mistake, as what was said now everyone wants a Nuclear program ... WTF Pull the fuck out and let them fight each other, then when the dust settles, we go in with Russia and kill the rest and redo the middle east ...
valgehiir The problem is that the US goes in for reasons that are right for itself. If it truly did stand up for injustice there are many things it would do differently. When it armed the afgans long time ago it was because Russia was gonna take over and they will benefit from stopping them. The problem is they dont go in for the right reasons, even though that is what they think. They want to help people in syria was the reason for syria, really??. Is it not because syria is with iran and getting rid of basher is good for the US??. Until it actually becomes something that the US will benefit from, they wont care much about solving the problem.
***** People tend to be less humored by things that caused millions of people to be slaughtered. I'm polish and I laughed, but I know many people that would go for a punch to the face instead of a polite remark. That's like someone making a 9/11 joke or a Sandy Hook shooting joke. Might be in bad taste if people that were close to the events are present.
When Kasparov makes the very good argument that the US pressured Ukraine to give up its nuclear weapons, and guaranteed them protection from invasion, Maher's response was to shrug his shoulders, say nothing and change the subject onto his next rant.
To let people on your show that disagree with you is a boss thing to do. I don't agree with Bill Maher on a few things, but there is no denying he is willing to have someone adamantly counter his believes in front of him, it's very rare and impressive.
Krista Roman oh wow, those are 2 different people? the entire time I was watching that show, I thought "damn, she's a politician? I thought she was an actress..."
Oh my gosh they did it! Every week since it's been on RUclips (about 7 weeks now) I've asked for Overtime to be 20 minutes, not the usual 6 minutes, this online episode hit 20 minutes. I think this is a record, even from when it was only on the HBO website. PLEASE keep doing this. Hosting on the internet is free (relatively), or at least the same price as when you go 6 minutes, 10 minutes, 20 ---- or heck 45 minute online show, you aren't really spending much more and it will lead to more people doing Facebook shares if there is more content and more topics covered on Overtime. Good episode tonight. :)
"You all speak with such certainty and if you were right then we wouldn't be in the situation we are in now"...It's worth a chuckle when the guy who gets paid to make light of things makes the most insightful and solemn point during a political discussion on a panel of political pundits
+Justin Clarke flashy comment but useless. Of course people are wrong sometimes, that doesn't mean you should lose all confidence in what you have to say. It's much easier to make general obvious statements like that than actually make a good point in a controversial issue
I think that the mid show interview should be, once a week, with a totally random person. Would work like this: today we have a Brazilian guy, or we brought a homeless guy from Baltimore, or here's a South African photographer, even a housewife from OC... I don't know... The sky is the limit... Btw, I'm a Brazilian guy if u dig the idea.
Daniel Cahen there should be NO mid show interview, it cuts the flow, and fucks up the show almost every time. In fact there should be no interview at the beginning either, it eats up 10 minutes, and we NEVER learn anything we didnt know
valgehiir the interview at the beginning is usually at least informative as he has smart people on, often the mid-show interview though can be people who aren't even into politics and are just promoting a book or whatever, can do with getting rid of those
So glad Bill's early defensiveness against his joke didn't so much to silence Kasparov. Garry had probably the wisest things to say here and eventually he was big enough to find windows for his voice to shine through. The debate ended up being great despite Senor's fractured points.
Now it's April, 2022 and Russia attacked Ukraine but Ukraine didn't have nuclear weapons nor NATO membership. Listen to Gary Casparaov at 13:00 and on. Bill, you owe this man an apology for how you treated him!
Yeah, you're right actually! We could have accomplished more and the burden on Elon Musk's shoulders would have been lightened. Humanity's hope lies in Space but we are unfortunately busy fighting wars in a 'CIVILISED' world! Pity the Humans! :-|
Mcface Not really. Spy satellites ain't NASA's turf. That's the USAF/ NRO (US Military in general) you're thinking of. Spy satellites are actually covered by the Defense Budget (2015-> 554 billion $). NASA's all about non-military space exploration as well as earth- and spacebound scientific research (Budget 2015 -> 17.9 billion $).
TheQuietAtheist Invest a fraction of that in the middle east (with no strings attached).....might have the desired affect of reducing the hatred towards the west. Certainly better than killing families, burning crops, and controlling resources.
One of the best Overtime episodes that I can remember. Never seen it get so hot or cover so much ground. Can you keep track of every topic they touched on in 20 minutes? Make a game of it and count them up. I want to know.
***** Are you shitting me? The US are violating human rights on a daily fucking basis. There isn't a morally more abhorrent country on the planet. You might think the middle east is bad, but they wear their convictions at least on their sleeves. The US are preaching one thing and are doing something completely different. A war mongering shitpot disguised in sheeps clothing.
korynnleefx Bill loves being the isolationist . What if Bill had said to D.L. Hughley "call me when they start lynching and chaining you all up again"? Geographical isolation doesn't mean you can stick your humanity up your arse and makes jokes about stuff like Bill does. Good on Gary for holding Bill to account. Bill's writers need to get him to elevate his game. Matt, Adam, Scott et.al..?
tewaewae I think Maher has most excellent writers, and Maher is very much on top of the game when it comes to religion, and social issues and politics of US. Maher's isolationism is little bit extreme, sure, US needs to picks its fights better, but for US to pull out of all international affairs, like Maher suggests, is wrong.
valgehiir I agree Bill's isolationism may be a little bit extreme, but it doesn't seem to me that in this video anyone (including Kasparov) succeded to explain to him why he is wrong being so hard about that.
We in Canada watch in horror as America tears itself apart. There is much hate and anger in the hearts of Americans. Why, with so much to enjoy from free institutions do so many Americans suffer from soul-destroying fear of anyone who isn't white, who doesn't speak English or who isn't Christian? We have people who need a daily dose of vengeance here in Canada too - and it's becoming more noisy and more visible. Wolfe Blitzer asked a rhetorical question about where the principles of peaceful protest extolled by Martin Luther King Jr. had disappeared to in Baltimore protesters. Well, from my point of view, there has never been any signs that peaceful protest created final peace between whites and blacks in America. Don't you wonder if perhaps instead of private individuals, crazed white people, who in the past got away with hanging black men from the boughs of trees have simply, in the 21st century, put on a uniform? Has "lynching" become a state solution in American cities?. Instead of hanging black men from a tree, are Americans getting away with storing them in jails or shooting them in the streets? A black man in the White House, notwithstanding, has anything really changed?
When that guy on the right started about "you said holocaust joke", I was afraid that there will be no more TV jobs for Bill, but he come as a winner :)
"That guy on the right?" Come on, now. Don't you recognize one of the greatest chess grandmasters of all time? The man is a legend. He took his jacket off during his battle with Deep Blue, just to intimidate the computer AI and show it how serious he was. He lost, but still, epic.
Live Bill , and I don’t think he was trying to make a Holocaust joke, but it was rather tactless of him, and it’s easy to see how it could be misunderstood. Nobody’s perfect. Nice to see 2 people make peace after a misunderstanding.
When you have a Nobel laureate economist and the greatest living chess master on one side and a washed out politician, republican hack and a comedian on the other...
'Wake me up when Putin is in Poland' joke is slightly off. Two good reasons - Russia has attacked and annexed Poland, killed Polish civilians, slaughtered Polish officers in camps, all in agreement with Germany in 1939. Secondly, Ukraine war shows everybody how real of a danger Putin is to Europe! So it would be a joke like 'Wake me up, when Hitler starts killing Jews' Not funny, cos he DID kill jews. Same with Putin in Poland jokes. Kasparov was right to question Maher.
That s not a joke of him. The irish jerk is dead serious about not giving a shit about lives in Poland and Ukraine and syrians and displaced people around the world .
valgehiir I'm of Polish descent and I understood exactly what he meant. He wasn't discounting Poland and in fact invading Poland (in his joke) was the thing he would be upset about. Think about it.
So basically you're saying Poland would have no resistance at all? He said when they invaded which isn't a instantaneous win. Within hours we could have predator drones cruise missiles and stealth bombers all over their ass and that's just a few thing off the top of my head. No he won't invade Poland. Hell he was surprised how much we cared about Ukraine. Which is why no officially Russian troops are there but they supply all kinds of hardware to the "Rebels".
Gamesman01 I would not bet on NATO coming to defend Poland with full force, cruise missiles and stealth bombers. I would bet Merkel and Obama will put out some 'strong' statement, and thats pretty much it. US will never go for nuclear war with Russia over minor NATO allies such as Poland, Baltic states.
Wow; Dan Senor is more obnoxious than any other guest I've seen on Bill Maher, including Al Sharpton, Bill Krystal, Dinesh D'Souza, and many others. I didn't think it was possible. What alternate universe is Dan Senor living in? It's like someone compressed Fox News down into a singularity. Senor gives even paranoia a bad name. As a nerd, I'm embarrassed; and on behalf of all nerds, I hereby disown Dan Senor; there's a difference between a nerd and a delusional, shrill weasel......
Masked Marvyl Im extreme fan of Bill Maher. I think Garry Kasparov is one of those few remaining Russian intellectuals. Despite that i think Dan actually made some good points on certain issues! I was surprised that(as european i dont know all of your Yank politicians ect) i had a "i see republican with brains" moment when listening him.
The way this Kasparov guy talks about Putin and Russia is very reminiscent of the way that Cubans in America talk about Castro and Cuba. It's based way more off of blind hatred than it is about things that are actually wrong with their leaders. There are perfectly legitimate criticisms of Putin: LGBT rights, increasing the religiosity if the country, the rampant corruption allowed in the country that he is probably taking place in, etc. But the comparisons to Hitler, thinking that he is going to try to take over Europe or invade a NATO country is fucking ridiculous fearmongering bullshit, said in an attempt to gather American support against him. What the fuck does he want us to do? Go to war with Russia? I don't care if he takes all of Eastern Europe, it's not worth one American troop, those countries should have never been allowed to join NATO, this shit is not our problem, and he's not going to do anything to the Eastern Bloc countries anyway. We are the ones encroaching on the Russian sphere of influence, I'm with Bill, this shit isn't our problem. Unless he's taking over France or the UK, I don't give a shit. Edit: Arming Ukraine is the most retarded thing that we could do. Before our equipment would even get there, the real Russian army would be all the way at the Polish border. If you want the US to arm the Ukrainians that you are essentially saying that you are in favor of the reunification of Ukraine and Russia.
markalexander774 Did you even listen to what Kasparov said? America promised Ukraine's territorial integrity in exchange for giving up their nuclear weapons and USA didn't do shit when Putin annexed Crimea. This is not about what is right to do, this is about what America promised to do, signed by president of the country. If that means nothing then you have absolutely no pull in any deal with anyone in the future.
Illlium Bullshit - nothing that America promised is "binding", as per the US Embassy. Or is it only binding when it suits them? Here's all you need to know: minsk.usembassy.gov/mobile//budapest_memorandum.html
Illlium If Kasparov said that than he is wrong. America did not promise Ukraine's territorial integrity. The Lisbon Protocol was only signed by Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, and Kazakhstan. Russia guaranteed the integrity of Ukraine not the United States, this is not our problem. And the Western powers, the Yanukovych government, the opposition at the time, and Russia all agreed to a deal back in February of last year too, but the current Ukrainian government (which back then was the opposition) reneged on the deal and overthrew him anyway, in what only can be described as a coup. Once you start pulling off bullshit like that than what do you expect? Ukraine was the first one to not honor their deals, not Russia. And do you want a nuclear war with Russia that would kill every single person on this planet? Are you that retarded and/or evil that you want everyone on earth to die? Or is your argument that we should give the Ukrainians weapons? In which case, you want all of Ukraine to become part of Russia. So are you a Putin shill that's trying to get America involved so that Russia can take all of Ukraine? Or are you just an idiot. Either way, fuck you, I don't want one American tax dollar going to this conflict, this isn't our fight, this isn't even in our neighborhood.
markalexander774 "There are perfectly legitimate criticisms of Putin: LGBT rights, increasing the religiosity if the country, the rampant corruption allowed in the country that he is probably taking place in, etc" Those are issues that no one outside Russia can do anything about and therefore no one cares. Also those are issues that are worth criticizing the US for. "But the comparisons to Hitler, thinking that he is going to try to take over Europe" The comparison to Hitler is actually fitting because Putin is an Ultra- nationalist fear mongering despot that wants to return his country back to its former empire status. He IS trying to take over Europe. He is invading and stealing land from the neighboring countries i.e. Crimea. " I don't care if he takes all of Eastern Europe" Tyrants like Putin love it when people like you say things like that. It's what gives them the power to do whatever they want. "and he's not going to do anything to the Eastern Bloc countries anyway" You appear to be uninformed... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annexation_of_Crimea_by_the_Russian_Federation " We are the ones encroaching on the Russian sphere of influence" No were not. Those eastern bloc countries Chose to join NATO voluntarily because they don't want to have anything to do with Russia or be in their sphere of influence. Those countries are sovereign and are not under Russia's control. "Unless he's taking over France or the UK, I don't give a shit." If he ever gets to that point it will be too late to stop him. "If you want the US to arm the Ukrainians that you are essentially saying that you are in favor of the reunification of Ukraine and Russia." That is some broken ass logic right there. What you are basically saying is, selling weapons to a country so they can rightfully protect their own sovereignty will encourage another country to invade? Putin will keep illegally annexing other countries until he is forced to stop.
I do like Bill. But sometimes he needs to shut up and let other people finish their sentences. I know its his show, but if he doesn't want to let anyone who disagrees with him speak, he shouldn't bother inviting them on
Best Overtime in a while. I love the passion of the guests, but finally some real discussion as to the why's and wherefore's of income inequality and why this "recovery" has only worked for the 1%. The rest of us are simply hired to shine their boots and buy their organic meals from Whole Foods. Two Americas. The rich, the healthy, the educated. Then the rest. Even doctors and lawyers are finding it hard to make ends meet. It's all about business.
Lisa Nelson lol - more of the 1% is made up of doctors and lawyers than any other profession. . . maybe they "deserve" it, but the idea that it's all bankers is false.
***** he has no "slam dunks." he gets great guests because of his platform, and frankly because guests that come on to push a single agenda know they'll be able to do so with little push back. Maher's been the weakest link on the show since it moved to HBO. I'd forgive it if he was funny, I'm fine with a politically inclined funny man. the problem is he isn't funny and he has zero damn clue about any policy. let alone the dude being an anti-science moron. when the guy has to castigate HIS OWN AUDIENCE every show because they "don't get it" it's a pretty bright sign that the guy's time has passed. Bill Maher is awful, stupid, anti-vax, a bigot, and a blight on the progressive left.
tdubb3 Maher is great. He does fuck up, like with Kasparov here.. but overall Maher is voice of sanity in US. Who else is, other than John Stewart? Nobody comes even close!
***** Well, Maher is the guy who talk about how successful socialism is and mentions Europe in one breath. But he can't even tell the difference between EU and Eurozone. And that's just one of many examples of how clueless he is.
That was the best Overtime EVER - and I have seen them all, literally. Bill, invite guests that are willing to debate, and give them their space, then a great discussion like this will be the result. Also, run Overtime longer, like this one. 8-9 mins is too short...
Civility, passionate reasoning, and stimulating convictions. Somewhere, John Mclaughlin is smiling.
I agree, I really like this one, Very interesting.

This is how the Televised debates like CNN and FOX holds should be like.

I'm Russian and I have yet to meet one Russian living in the U.S. who isn't a conservative. Maybe it's cuz they have PTSD from living in the socialist communist USSR. It explains why Kasparov is so serious. Dude means business. I wanted to hear more of what he had to say.
I got to give Bill some credit for really standing his ground with the arguments.
I've got to give Bill some credit for that, too.🙂👍
Love Bill Maher! Awesome show Bill! Bill and Gary! This is one of the reasons I love the show!
Garry Kasparov was right on money. Bill Maher's isolationism and lack of human compassion makes me sick. There are rogue actors and terrorists in the world and they must be confronted, not ignored.

Watching this after the invasion of Ukraine hit's so differently, it's crazy.
Holy shit, Garry Kasparov is one of the greatest chess players in the world. He is probably smarter than everyone else at that table haha.
Is he the one who played chess game with IBM computer decades ago?
The name is quite familiar to me if you said so.
***** People tend to be less humored by things that caused millions of people to be slaughtered. I'm polish and I laughed, but I know many people that would go for a punch to the face instead of a polite remark. That's like someone making a 9/11 joke or a Sandy Hook shooting joke. Might be in bad taste if people that were close to the events are present.
Samuel Evans he has a different kind of intelligence though.
Kasparov has one of the highest documented IQ's of any person alive today. He was world champion Chess GrandMaster for 20 years, a world record.
Wow. Best overtime in quite a while. Very boisterous and lively.
n1lla And 2X the usual time!
n1lla I've wondered if changing to youtube has been leading to longer Overtime segments. The changes nearly coincided.
n1lla it's because it's so diverse, you have russian jew and american jews
When Kasparov makes the very good argument that the US pressured Ukraine to give up its nuclear weapons, and guaranteed them protection from invasion, Maher's response was to shrug his shoulders, say nothing and change the subject onto his next rant.
More relevant than ever
"Now it's time for a mutha fucka! " Lol
DL had perfect timing for that one lol!
Yeah he did lol
Antonio Ramos dl is the true sage here
Not Sure he put them all in they're place
Antonio Ramos DL SHOULD HAVE HIS OWN SHOW CALLED, KEEPIN IT REAL TIME
I love Bill Maher. He was real good in this overtime.
Excellent Overtime!!!! Love them all, agree with Dan Senor the most
To let people on your show that disagree with you is a boss thing to do. I don't agree with Bill Maher on a few things, but there is no denying he is willing to have someone adamantly counter his believes in front of him, it's very rare and impressive.
Jane Harman and Cloris Leachman have to be related.
Krista Roman oh wow, those are 2 different people?
the entire time I was watching that show, I thought "damn, she's a politician? I thought she was an actress..."
Krista Roman Ha! good shot!
Krista Roman Good observation! Definitely a similarity there. BTW, while we're making comparisons, Joseph Stiglitz looks a lot like Mel Brooks. ;)
Krista Roman I think she looks like she could be related to Dr. Bosconovitch. :)
crasherball i figured that cloris leachman would've never looked at bill maher the way that she did when he was telling his jokes.
Oh my gosh they did it! Every week since it's been on RUclips (about 7 weeks now) I've asked for Overtime to be 20 minutes, not the usual 6 minutes, this online episode hit 20 minutes. I think this is a record, even from when it was only on the HBO website. PLEASE keep doing this.

Good episode tonight. :)
When bill said Mayflower vs Pacquiao I lost it.
"America is not indispensable [to everywhere except Israel]."
-- Bill Maher.
Well, now it's 2017 and Kasparov has been quite prophetic, once again!
There is a Nobel Prize winner in Economics at the table, and that bald guy keeps talking over him.
this is maybe the best overtime i've seen. good points were made
Garry Kasparov was the only intelligent life on that show and was muted.
This is, by far, my favorite overtime!
"You all speak with such certainty and if you were right then we wouldn't be in the situation we are in now"...It's worth a chuckle when the guy who gets paid to make light of things makes the most insightful and solemn point during a political discussion on a panel of political pundits
It's called reading between the lines...
+Justin Clarke flashy comment but useless. Of course people are wrong sometimes, that doesn't mean you should lose all confidence in what you have to say. It's much easier to make general obvious statements like that than actually make a good point in a controversial issue
I think that the mid show interview should be, once a week, with a totally random person. Would work like this: today we have a Brazilian guy, or we brought a homeless guy from Baltimore, or here's a South African photographer, even a housewife from OC... I don't know... The sky is the limit... Btw, I'm a Brazilian guy if u dig the idea.
once a month...
Once a year... As long as u called a Brazilian guy.
Daniel Cahen Sounds like a good idea
Daniel Cahen there should be NO mid show interview, it cuts the flow, and fucks up the show almost every time. In fact there should be no interview at the beginning either, it eats up 10 minutes, and we NEVER learn anything we didnt know
valgehiir the interview at the beginning is usually at least informative as he has smart people on, often the mid-show interview though can be people who aren't even into politics and are just promoting a book or whatever, can do with getting rid of those
It's rare to hear a TV debate from all sides that I enjoy. LOVED THIS. Thanks Bill Maher
thank you D.L. for killing that tension haha
So glad Bill's early defensiveness against his joke didn't so much to silence Kasparov. Garry had probably the wisest things to say here and eventually he was big enough to find windows for his voice to shine through. The debate ended up being great despite Senor's fractured points.
Gary Kasparov great chess legend .
Captain obvious.
This was a feisty mess. It's good when there's lively debate, though.
Now it's April, 2022 and Russia attacked Ukraine but Ukraine didn't have nuclear weapons nor NATO membership. Listen to Gary Casparaov at 13:00 and on. Bill, you owe this man an apology for how you treated him!
This has to best TV programme in the land, sheer enjoyment.
Bill's clap back was amazing. Love seeing his classic anti-PC mode come out
"you say you make jokes about everything", "I do" - Check Mate
Dan Senor is on point!! Great overall debate/conversation
One of the better Overtimes i've seen so far. Great panel!
What if we took that 4 trillion dollars, and invested it in The NASA Space Program?
Yeah, you're right actually! We could have accomplished more and the burden on Elon Musk's shoulders would have been lightened.
Humanity's hope lies in Space but we are unfortunately busy fighting wars in a 'CIVILISED' world! Pity the Humans! :-|
TheQuietAtheist there would be 4 trillion dollars worth of spy satellites in orbit, and nothing more.
Mcface Not really. Spy satellites ain't NASA's turf. That's the USAF/ NRO (US Military in general) you're thinking of. Spy satellites are actually covered by the Defense Budget (2015-> 554 billion $). NASA's all about non-military space exploration as well as earth- and spacebound scientific research (Budget 2015 -> 17.9 billion $).
TheQuietAtheist or take some of that and invest in Nasa, education and universal healthcare.
TheQuietAtheist Invest a fraction of that in the middle east (with no strings attached).....might have the desired affect of reducing the hatred towards the west.
Certainly better than killing families, burning crops, and controlling resources.
One of the best Overtime episodes that I can remember. Never seen it get so hot or cover so much ground. Can you keep track of every topic they touched on in 20 minutes? Make a game of it and count them up. I want to know.
The most shouty Overtime yet!
Michael Poché and best
Wow, that was an intense discussion. Loved it!
Bill got is ass handed to him by Gary.
+ctcole77 Yep!
Kasparov just smoked the whole panel, damn
6:32 did Maher just say Mayflower v paquiao 😂
Love it when holds his ground on that Poland thing.. love it
America needs to STAY OUT OF OTHER PEOPLE'S WARS.
***** go tell that to the prisoners in GITMO
***** once? have you forgotten about Japanese internment camps during WW2?
***** Are you shitting me? The US are violating human rights on a daily fucking basis. There isn't a morally more abhorrent country on the planet. You might think the middle east is bad, but they wear their convictions at least on their sleeves. The US are preaching one thing and are doing something completely different. A war mongering shitpot disguised in sheeps clothing.
k3nny111 *Claps*
*****
yeah, like all the women and children that are getting bombed from unmanned drones huh. Where were their human rights at?
best overtime i've seen in years
This overtime was actually better than the whole episode. Bill should have given Stiglitz more time to speak.
The problem was that Dan Senor wouldn't shut up. The other guests were being cut off every 30 seconds....
Garry Kasparov, please accept my deepest expressions of respect. I bow to you sir.
Gary needs to realize this is a "Comedy Show".
When Bill's politics get challenged he falls back on its a comedy show.
The world would be AWESOME place if all Americans would be as educated intellectuals and Bill Maher and his guests
I think Kasparov checkmated himself.
sjoyce100 Nope. Bill was an asshole to him for no reason.
korynnleefx Bill loves being the isolationist
. What if Bill had said to D.L. Hughley "call me when they start lynching and chaining you all up again"? Geographical isolation doesn't mean you can stick your humanity up your arse and makes jokes about stuff like Bill does. Good on Gary for holding Bill to account. Bill's writers need to get him to elevate his game. Matt, Adam, Scott et.al..?
tewaewae I think Maher has most excellent writers, and Maher is very much on top of the game when it comes to religion, and social issues and politics of US. Maher's isolationism is little bit extreme, sure, US needs to picks its fights better, but for US to pull out of all international affairs, like Maher suggests, is wrong.
valgehiir I agree Bill's isolationism may be a little bit extreme, but it doesn't seem to me that in this video anyone (including Kasparov) succeded to explain to him why he is wrong being so hard about that.
Bill is a fucking idiot.
We in Canada watch in horror as America tears itself apart. There is much hate and anger in the hearts of Americans. Why, with so much to enjoy from free institutions do so many Americans suffer from soul-destroying fear of anyone who isn't white, who doesn't speak English or who isn't Christian? We have people who need a daily dose of vengeance here in Canada too - and it's becoming more noisy and more visible.
Wolfe Blitzer asked a rhetorical question about where the principles of peaceful protest extolled by Martin Luther King Jr. had disappeared to in Baltimore protesters. Well, from my point of view, there has never been any signs that peaceful protest created final peace between whites and blacks in America. Don't you wonder if perhaps instead of private individuals, crazed white people, who in the past got away with hanging black men from the boughs of trees have simply, in the 21st century, put on a uniform? Has "lynching" become a state solution in American cities?. Instead of hanging black men from a tree, are Americans getting away with storing them in jails or shooting them in the streets? A black man in the White House, notwithstanding, has anything really changed?
When that guy on the right started about "you said holocaust joke", I was afraid that there will be no more TV jobs for Bill, but he come as a winner :)
"That guy on the right?" Come on, now. Don't you recognize one of the greatest chess grandmasters of all time? The man is a legend. He took his jacket off during his battle with Deep Blue, just to intimidate the computer AI and show it how serious he was. He lost, but still, epic.
Live Bill , and I don’t think he was trying to make a Holocaust joke, but it was rather tactless of him, and it’s easy to see how it could be misunderstood. Nobody’s perfect. Nice to see 2 people make peace after a misunderstanding.
Revisit 7 yrs later, and you find out who was naive.
The only reason why im here is because of a jpegmafia sample
This has been the best panel (and the best Overtime) since I started watching the show in 2013.
"Mayflower / Paqiauo" hehehe
Boogie Brown the constant hbo plugs for the fight lol
Boogie Brown I was wondering if anyone caught that
Ser_ Ryon_Vine the fight advertised itself, mayweather didnt even trash talk
The fight sucked and Mayweather shouldn't even be allowed to fight.
Bill Maher needs to bring this overtime panel back for a 6 year review! What has changed other than no foreign policy of the Trump administration!
Did she just say we don't have an Empire? Somebody should check if she's been taking her meds.
We don't.
The old women looks like she wandered in from Whole Foods
2:56 - here comes the best part.... 3:03 - OOOOOOOOOWW!!
Nice! Its been a while since things have gotten this heated. Love the intensity.
When you have a Nobel laureate economist and the greatest living chess master on one side and a washed out politician, republican hack and a comedian on the other...
Kasparov should ask the Lakota, Navajo, Cheyenne,..., how much an American President's signature is worth.
'Wake me up when Putin is in Poland' joke is slightly off. Two good reasons - Russia has attacked and annexed Poland, killed Polish civilians, slaughtered Polish officers in camps, all in agreement with Germany in 1939. Secondly, Ukraine war shows everybody how real of a danger Putin is to Europe! So it would be a joke like 'Wake me up, when Hitler starts killing Jews' Not funny, cos he DID kill jews. Same with Putin in Poland jokes. Kasparov was right to question Maher.
That s not a joke of him. The irish jerk is dead serious about not giving a shit about lives in Poland and Ukraine and syrians and displaced people around the world
.
valgehiir I'm of Polish descent and I understood exactly what he meant. He wasn't discounting Poland and in fact invading Poland (in his joke) was the thing he would be upset about. Think about it.
Gamesman01 it's too late to wake up after Poland is already gone, don't you know that!
So basically you're saying Poland would have no resistance at all? He said when they invaded which isn't a instantaneous win. Within hours we could have predator drones cruise missiles and stealth bombers all over their ass and that's just a few thing off the top of my head. No he won't invade Poland. Hell he was surprised how much we cared about Ukraine. Which is why no officially Russian troops are there but they supply all kinds of hardware to the "Rebels".
Gamesman01 I would not bet on NATO coming to defend Poland with full force, cruise missiles and stealth bombers. I would bet Merkel and Obama will put out some 'strong' statement, and thats pretty much it. US will never go for nuclear war with Russia over minor NATO allies such as Poland, Baltic states.
Thank you Bill Maher. You make the rest of us not feel so alone in a sea of complete idiots.
Wow; Dan Senor is more obnoxious than any other guest I've seen on Bill Maher, including Al Sharpton, Bill Krystal, Dinesh D'Souza, and many others. I didn't think it was possible. What alternate universe is Dan Senor living in? It's like someone compressed Fox News down into a singularity. Senor gives even paranoia a bad name. As a nerd, I'm embarrassed; and on behalf of all nerds, I hereby disown Dan Senor; there's a difference between a nerd and a delusional, shrill weasel......
Masked Marvyl Sousa is even worse than that douche
Masked Marvyl One of the worst on Maher's RT show, although the Politically Correct show had much worse guests on regularly.
FungusMossGnosis Politically Incorrect was nightly show, of course it had random guests often
Masked Marvyl Im extreme fan of Bill Maher. I think Garry Kasparov is one of those few remaining Russian intellectuals. Despite that i think Dan actually made some good points on certain issues! I was surprised that(as european i dont know all of your Yank politicians ect) i had a "i see republican with brains" moment when listening him.
@@Jarmo187 yeah, for like, 3 minutes out of 20...
I'd like if Bill got these same people together for a debate now. I think they will be horrified with the things said
KASPAROV SHUT BILL DOWWWWWWWN
bigtruckseriesreview its b/c he has no sense of humor.
I concur
bigtruckseriesreview Bill is just great, Kasparov is an asshole, who knows nothing about Poland history. That's the truth.
Bill Maher knows about Domestic issues but when it comes to foreign policy, well, he's funny at best.
Dan Senor is completely around the bend.
holy shit parts of this aged like milk. Kasparov was fucking right. we should have been arming Ukraine.
OMG what a clusterfu*k of a discussion this was.
When the American banks got bailed out.... did the money get used to pay off people’s mortgage???
Nope
Jesus, this was rough for overtime.
Wow. That was a tumultuous overtime!
Yikes, that got cringe-worthy...
Words of wisdom from D. L. Hughley! Speak up D. L.!!
The way this Kasparov guy talks about Putin and Russia is very reminiscent of the way that Cubans in America talk about Castro and Cuba. It's based way more off of blind hatred than it is about things that are actually wrong with their leaders. There are perfectly legitimate criticisms of Putin: LGBT rights, increasing the religiosity if the country, the rampant corruption allowed in the country that he is probably taking place in, etc. But the comparisons to Hitler, thinking that he is going to try to take over Europe or invade a NATO country is fucking ridiculous fearmongering bullshit, said in an attempt to gather American support against him. What the fuck does he want us to do? Go to war with Russia? I don't care if he takes all of Eastern Europe, it's not worth one American troop, those countries should have never been allowed to join NATO, this shit is not our problem, and he's not going to do anything to the Eastern Bloc countries anyway. We are the ones encroaching on the Russian sphere of influence, I'm with Bill, this shit isn't our problem. Unless he's taking over France or the UK, I don't give a shit.
Edit: Arming Ukraine is the most retarded thing that we could do. Before our equipment would even get there, the real Russian army would be all the way at the Polish border. If you want the US to arm the Ukrainians that you are essentially saying that you are in favor of the reunification of Ukraine and Russia.
markalexander774 Did you even listen to what Kasparov said? America promised Ukraine's territorial integrity in exchange for giving up their nuclear weapons and USA didn't do shit when Putin annexed Crimea. This is not about what is right to do, this is about what America promised to do, signed by president of the country. If that means nothing then you have absolutely no pull in any deal with anyone in the future.
Illlium Bullshit - nothing that America promised is "binding", as per the US Embassy. Or is it only binding when it suits them? Here's all you need to know: minsk.usembassy.gov/mobile//budapest_memorandum.html
Illlium If Kasparov said that than he is wrong. America did not promise Ukraine's territorial integrity. The Lisbon Protocol was only signed by Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, and Kazakhstan. Russia guaranteed the integrity of Ukraine not the United States, this is not our problem.
And the Western powers, the Yanukovych government, the opposition at the time, and Russia all agreed to a deal back in February of last year too, but the current Ukrainian government (which back then was the opposition) reneged on the deal and overthrew him anyway, in what only can be described as a coup. Once you start pulling off bullshit like that than what do you expect? Ukraine was the first one to not honor their deals, not Russia.
And do you want a nuclear war with Russia that would kill every single person on this planet? Are you that retarded and/or evil that you want everyone on earth to die? Or is your argument that we should give the Ukrainians weapons? In which case, you want all of Ukraine to become part of Russia. So are you a Putin shill that's trying to get America involved so that Russia can take all of Ukraine? Or are you just an idiot. Either way, fuck you, I don't want one American tax dollar going to this conflict, this isn't our fight, this isn't even in our neighborhood.
markalexander774 "There are perfectly legitimate criticisms of Putin: LGBT rights, increasing the religiosity if the country, the rampant corruption allowed in the country that he is probably taking place in, etc"
Those are issues that no one outside Russia can do anything about and therefore no one cares. Also those are issues that are worth criticizing the US for.
"But the comparisons to Hitler, thinking that he is going to try to take over Europe"
The comparison to Hitler is actually fitting because Putin is an Ultra- nationalist fear mongering despot that wants to return his country back to its former empire status. He IS trying to take over Europe. He is invading and stealing land from the neighboring countries i.e. Crimea.
" I don't care if he takes all of Eastern Europe"
Tyrants like Putin love it when people like you say things like that. It's what gives them the power to do whatever they want.
"and he's not going to do anything to the Eastern Bloc countries anyway"
You appear to be uninformed...
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annexation_of_Crimea_by_the_Russian_Federation
" We are the ones encroaching on the Russian sphere of influence"
No were not. Those eastern bloc countries Chose to join NATO voluntarily because they don't want to have anything to do with Russia or be in their sphere of influence. Those countries are sovereign and are not under Russia's control.
"Unless he's taking over France or the UK, I don't give a shit."
If he ever gets to that point it will be too late to stop him.
"If you want the US to arm the Ukrainians that you are essentially saying that you are in favor of the reunification of Ukraine and Russia."
That is some broken ass logic right there. What you are basically saying is, selling weapons to a country so they can rightfully protect their own sovereignty will encourage another country to invade? Putin will keep illegally annexing other countries until he is forced to stop.
Metric Imperialist You got a TL;DR for that? I don't feel like reading bunch of my own quotes over again.
this is one of the more intense overtime's I have seen
The guy taking about Iran was so wrong that he can't even imagine how wrong he was.
May be first time someone said "Shut up Garry" to his face and boy ways he stumped!
"We have to stand up to pootin"
HARMAN says :"we're indispensable" and THEN she says America should "stop patting ourselves" on the back? come ON !
@ 11:35 Bill's so right about that Dan Senor; that guy has purely childish competitive ways of thinking.
I do like Bill. But sometimes he needs to shut up and let other people finish their sentences. I know its his show, but if he doesn't want to let anyone who disagrees with him speak, he shouldn't bother inviting them on
Bill is just terrible at the External Politics. 🤡
Now this was a proper debate.
This was not a good joke
When a figure like Stiglitz is in attendance, he should have more chances to speak.
"shut up garry its a comedy show, i make jokes about everything"
"do you make jokes about the holocaust?"
"no"
Actually, Maher answered saying that he make jokes about EVERYTHING (although he didn't remember making a joke about the holocaust). Quit lying.

(Maher)"i'm 99% sure I said the CHESS CHAMPION GARY 'ONE 'R' Kasparov, Morty! 99%!" Surprisingly entertaining. Thanks, Real.
Best Overtime in a while. I love the passion of the guests, but finally some real discussion as to the why's and wherefore's of income inequality and why this "recovery" has only worked for the 1%. The rest of us are simply hired to shine their boots and buy their organic meals from Whole Foods.
Two Americas. The rich, the healthy, the educated. Then the rest. Even doctors and lawyers are finding it hard to make ends meet. It's all about business.
Grow up
***** Student loans.
Lisa Nelson Because the 9-11joke(hoax) was on all of us...
Lisa Nelson lol - more of the 1% is made up of doctors and lawyers than any other profession. . . maybe they "deserve" it, but the idea that it's all bankers is false.
I guess Dan Senor forgot when Bush said Mission accomplished!
Bill should stick to comedy if he thinks a nuclear program will not proliferate into nuclear weapons. how naive of him
+Geoffbuzz Whocares i dont see how a nueclar program thats regulated is worse than iran have dodgy dealings and do it by themselves in the shadows
countries with nuclear power - 31
countries with nuclear weapons - 8
thank you, this was the best overseas ever.
HBO can you PLEASE replace Maher with anyone who knows the littlest thing about policy? he's fucking awful.
tdubb3 what!
tdubb3 Agree, this show is good, as long as you are used to the BS Maher always says. He talks about things that he has no idea about.
***** he has no "slam dunks." he gets great guests because of his platform, and frankly because guests that come on to push a single agenda know they'll be able to do so with little push back. Maher's been the weakest link on the show since it moved to HBO. I'd forgive it if he was funny, I'm fine with a politically inclined funny man. the problem is he isn't funny and he has zero damn clue about any policy. let alone the dude being an anti-science moron.
when the guy has to castigate HIS OWN AUDIENCE every show because they "don't get it" it's a pretty bright sign that the guy's time has passed. Bill Maher is awful, stupid, anti-vax, a bigot, and a blight on the progressive left.
tdubb3 Maher is great. He does fuck up, like with Kasparov here.. but overall Maher is voice of sanity in US. Who else is, other than John Stewart? Nobody comes even close!
***** Well, Maher is the guy who talk about how successful socialism is and mentions Europe in one breath. But he can't even tell the difference between EU and Eurozone. And that's just one of many examples of how clueless he is.
Right on guys!
I just wanted to hear kasparov speak...
Then go watch somebody interview him.
Watching this in 2022 is WILD
