So nice of Couric to interview Bill at his house
That's how he is with EVERYONE. Bill, I love you, but jeez, let your guest(!) get a word in edge-wise. Isn't that the whole friggin' idea of "hosting a guest?" (He does it on Real Time, too...)
Bill has always been like through his entire career. BUT, he's managed to be wildly successful behaving this way... there is 0 insensitive for him to do anything different.
Bonus wish for him to start actually listening and considering what others have to say when he disagrees, even just sometimes.
@@joelkweskin8545 I watched Sitch and Adam's show on UA-cam where Sitch highlighted a key aspect of Bill Maher's impact. His stubbornness on certain ideas and proclivity to align with the approved Hollywood opinions, actually helps him maintain his reac and credibility. This positions him uniquely: often when prevailing narratives reach historic levels of absurdity it prompts him to push back. His critiques are more likely to resonate with-and even go viral among-an audience that might otherwise dismiss alternative viewpoints or never hear them in the first place. Maher's ability to be seen as 'one of us' by his audience ensures that when he speaks out, even on widely discussed issues, people listen. His approach not only preserves his status but also ensures he reaches those who might benefit most from his perspectives.
😅😅
I sometimes wonder if its the alcohol because hes much better on real time
Louie in club random will be epic!
Louie was just on Rogan, wtf does bill mean lol dude needs to wake up and pay attention
Louie has been on numerous podcasts.
I hope Bill invites LCK and stands up to the critics like he always has. "Fuck you. I'll have anyone I want on my show. Now go protest Joe Rogen."
He went on joe Rogan twice what in the H are you talking about
@@itsmeprasad1987 If I have to explain it, I can't help you.
Have Louie on and i'll actually watch the entire thing
Would love to see Louie and Bill talk!
I never stopped rocking with Louie. I buy all of his content except for that Forth Of July movie because it was too depressing.
I agree with everything you said except I bought 4th of July, I just haven’t watched it 😂
Horace and Pete (which is a masterpiece) makes Fourth of July look like lighthearted in comparison. I feel sorry for people who avoid art because it's depressing.
@@SallyMankus130 Don't feel sorry. Some of us have had enough family dysfunction in our life that we have no desire to see it acted out on screen. People are different.
@@CharlieSpecter me too lol, that package deal with his special
Louie has been on many podcasts after his comeuppance. Why not this one?
ya its complete nonsense that he couldn't do this podcast
This is one the better episodes of this podcast. For whatever reason, Bill let this guest actually talk. It was refreshing and enjoyable to listen to.
Bill has a history of subtly throwing comedians under the bus
If Bill doesn’t wanna invite Louie to be a guest here, then in some ways, he is a part of the problem without realising it.
I’d bet he has.
I’m sure he meant that Louis won’t do it because he doesn’t want that fake outrage start.
They can film an episode but that doesn't mean it'll make air. The people who run this podcast will buckle under pressure.
@@august6389 what is that telling you about Bill after all these years? That he prefers the corporate money vs the full artistic freedom?
I’d love to see more of Louie CK. He was my favorite comedian. I’m a liberal, but it’s true that teenagers are making the rules. Their brains are still in a black and white mode of thinking. They haven’t matured yet, so they don’t see the grey parts. We can’t throw away a genius because he had a weird kink. He didn’t rape anyone. He deserves another chance. He made a sincere apology that we should accept.
all the clips consist of bill delivering speeches.
1:35 literally?
Who edited this clip? You cut bill off while he’s still talking about the subject
This is wild lol 🤣
LCK gave an apology which was anything but rote. The impression i got was that he actually transcended the perception in which the behaviour occurred.- Awesome! .. But in typical mob fashion, the “lower” sentiments prevailed. No one wants to give up their victim status. In reality, if you dont feel powerful enough to enforce your personal boundaries, it’s a sign you need to address an issue of self-worth. This is a gift. You should thank the person who is bringing this to your attention.
I’ll preface this with saying I am a huge Louis CK fan. But saying to someone they should be grateful for “testing your boundaries” in this case is insane. Louis “asked” if he could jerk off like someone asks you for some of your chips whilst already reaching in your bag. As in, he didn’t wait for a yes or no before whipping it out. He also did it to female comics who looked up to him and thought they could advance their careers by networking with one of the more established stand up comedians, there was a power differential that he took advantage of. His manager Dave Becky had to do damage control and threatened the female comedians if they spoke up about what happened. I’ve been a fan of Louis since 2007 and I remember when the first news stories came out around 2014, the first stories didn’t even name him they just described who it might be so obviously that if you were a fan of Louis’s at the time you knew that’s who they were referencing. Also when he admitted to the allegations, he did take time off to reflect on what he did. Which was commendable, but in his special “Sincerely” he made light of the whole ordeal. I’m still a fan of Louis because he is IMO the best stand-up comedian since his rise around 2007 but I see people revising the story as it has been reported on in news articles and I feel compelled to report accurately because being a fan I followed all this closely. As for Sarah Silverman vouching for Louis CK, she only speaks for herself and it’s no indication of how the other victims view their own experience.
Show business is a weird industry anyway.
Katie Clueless ...a major embarrassment to public broadcasting... TOTALLY OBLIVIOUS
TO COMMON KNOWLEDGE...
Yay bill !
one of the girls said she said yes and then years later came to regret it, and they turned her into a victim
is Bill smoking a packwood damn that will burn the whole interview nice
Is that Roseanne Barr?
As far as hollywood goes, and the vile crap people do, one can argue that what Louie did was not that out of hand (pun intended).
When Louis CK supposedly hit rock bottom he sold out arenas in my town. Media perception is not reality. Like Chappelle said, when everybody believed Snipes was in prison, he met him at a party
& then when everybody thought Charlie Sheen was at the top of the world, he was actually at rock bottom, he said in a somewhat recent podcast. People's perceptions are weird indeed
Luv LOUIS C.K. 😁👍🏻
and screw the Crybabies 🤬👊👊
Classic Bill, I'll talk you listen
He's been on theo von and Joe Rogan not sure why he couldn't go on there
The thing about Louis CK is, what he did wasn't illegal, but morally speaking, it was very sketchy. Yeah, ok, so he asked permission - but often, who he asked was a female comedian, who may have thought he was joking, who may have thought there was a threat to their career if they said no, who may not have had time to even think through the implications of what he was asking them. Doing that to your wife or girlfriend is one thing, but doing it to someone you don't know that well, whose career you can have influence over? Sketchy. And I love Louis CK, one of the best stand-ups of all time imo.
Bill Maher's point is a good one, though - in the frenzy of 'meToo' and 'woke twitter lynch mobs', it seems grossly unfair that someone like Louis CK is included in with, say, Harvey Weinstein, as if they're the same. They're clearly not the same. Harvey Weinstein should be in prison. Louis CK should still have a career, if he tries to make amends.
The thing is, he may not have even been aware of the other stuff you mention. He’s very self deprecating, and probably figured he was in the clear since he got permission. Hindsight is 20/20..
@@kalikiter1 guys, he was horny AF, and he behaved like a creep, end of story, should he be able to come back? yes
@elijaprice...Completely agree on all counts. But comedians, and moreso the really good ones, are pretty f*cked up people. So there's that.
But how long does Louie get "punished" for? Like Bill said, there are those that have done far worse and gotten far less heat for it.
This all took place in the mid aughts. Louis didn't have the power to hurt their career and they were well aware of that. Also, they went up to his hotel after after drinks. That invitation by itself was a sexual advance. They obviously have the right to back out but him making a move isn't surprising.
@@SallyMankus130 comedians always hang out in each others rooms. They meet a fellow comedian on tour and go to their room to fart it up while talking bits. And there was never any segregation between male and female comedians, they often belonged to the same group which casually met and hung out together every night be it NY or LA. Louis had the power if you compare him to those who had just started. The part that the women were most unhappy with was that Louis' agent , who was the biggest agent in stand up comedy at the time, threatened them they would be black listed if they continued being public about what Louis had done. By the time Me too happened it had been an open secret in the stand up scene that Louis had had issues with masturbating in front of female comedians.
I love Louis' art, but all in all that thing was super sketchy.
If you feel so sorry for Louie, Bill, why don't you have on either of your shows?! If you feel so strongly he should be able to comeback then you shouldn't care about whatever backlash you get for hosting him. It's hypocritical of you to be mad at others for not giving him a platform, yet you don't either. Besides that, Louie is fine. He's selling out his shows, etc. We're supposed to feel bad cause he can't get a multi million dollar Netflix deal?!
The women were consenting adults. If you think what Louis did was morally wrong I’m curious to know what you think about the women? They had a choice and should we automatically respect women who think they NEED to engage in sexual activity for fear that it may hurt their career if they don’t? Women who have self respect don’t engage in that kind of behavior. Why? Because women who have self respect don’t whore themselves out at the drop of a hat.
Imagine if Louie CK did this at your work. How much time do you think his boss would give him before he let him come back to the office?
This is a workplace safety issue - plain and simple.
If this happened in an office setting he could have been fired from said job, but not barred from working in offices again.
@@gummiewormproduction I wouldn’t hire him for my office
@@NathanSmartscherer if Louis was regular civilian working in and office and did this, you would have never knew he did it and thus very well could have hired him after the fact. If you haven't done anything criminal then there would be no record of it.
Bring him on the show bill. Screw the. naysayers
Kanye had an opinion. How is that worse than what Louie did?
From a comeback to a comefront.
You can be so good at your job that they keep asking you back even though you did blackface some time ago.
A Couric is a European unit of measurement equal to 1.957 kilograms of human excrement. Now you know!
I already knew from south park.
@@JGreen-tb6keI did not 😂
😂😂😂
Interview show with no questions. Maher should just write a monthly column with all his latest rants - why bring in other people if they sit mute while you pontificate on your groovy chair?
It's not an interview show - it's a public "casually hanging out with Bill Maher" show.
It's what it's always been, it's how he marketed it from the start, and it's why I enjoy it.
@@joachimwalle3760 Public? That's why I don't watch. Seeing him pontificate while the guest sits there all uncomfortable is truly priceless. Enjoy!
It's not an interview show. BUT, if tge idea is to have a "guest" visit with you, wouldn't it be nice to open up the dialogue to allow the "guest" to actually have a say on the matter? He does it on Real Time, too...
That is biochemistry....
Saddam if you do
Saddam if you don't
BM fully downplaying what LCK did. KC fully not buying it.
If you watch the three major talk shows now and the stand ups they present, they are horrible
Sorry, what he did is stone cold dum, nothing funny about it.
It’s ok or it’s not ok. Pick one.
No nuance, eh? Such a childish attitude you have.
It depends on who you ask. I think it was ok what he did because he asked for permission from the women.
Taking a man's ability to earn a living is akin to killing him!!
Dave Chappelle
Luie did nothing wrong.
Sexual harassment is wrong.
You ask women if you can jerk it in front of them?
@@carrieohio yep and if he had sexualy harassed any one that would matter
@@robertstone9988many female comedians have said he whips it out and asks if he can pleasure himself in front of them. Is that what you do to women? Newsflash - that's sexual harassment
@@robertstone9988 lol. Seek help
worst show ever....
Louis CK ick
why don't you people look to reality rather than other people... or is other people you peoples reality?....
