I found Sandra to be refreshingly down to earth, easygoing, intelligent, interesting, and a true American gem. I have newfound respect for her.
Bill, if you ever read these, this is what a great Club Random show is. More of this please and not those tortured conversations with closed off “celebs”.
I’m dying that Sandra is probably the best interviewer of Bill Maher ever- a NANNY!!!!!!!!! WHAT?????!!!!!! Never in a million years would I have ever guessed Bill worked as an au pair! 😂🤣😂 This was so much fun and I was excited to see this pair together after decades of friendship. I remember them from when I was a kid in the 80’s. Great Club Random sesh- one of my faves! Love Sandra!
Definitely a show pitch. Bill Maher as a Nanny.
@@robingrl23 Real Rhymes
Sandra Bernhard's transformation into Fran Liebowitz is 92% complete.
That's perfect. Thank you for that one!
Yes! Was just watching her on WWHL and thinking the same thing!
slightly puffier version.
Good observation!
Best episode yet. I’m fascinated by Sandra, very few people seem to keep Bill on his toes. She’s fascinating and they have brilliant chemistry.
Agreed. Smart, confident, honest. One of the better guests.
Bill & Sandra come across as loving bro’ & sis’.💞☮️😊, really enjoyed this “get together”.👏
Oh my god, the way she opened up Bill and he talked about his past?!? This is the episode I've been waiting for. How fascinating to learn all of that about Bill. I've always loved Sandra too. Thanks for driving deep.
It's crazy how much she disarmed him. I liked this episode a lot more than I thought I would.
he has talked about that girl before and another he dated many years ago. He doesn't like to mention names. When Adrianna talked about the "science gal" Cara Santa Maria, he got "I'm not going there". They were cute, she was so smart, smartest of the models etc he dates. They loved animals and both didn't believe in God. But he wasn't ready for marriage.
That's deep to you?
Sarcasm drives deep.
A lot of things can feel deep to someone, especially when they hear a story that may contain an element that reminds them of something in their life, etc.
It's a pretty simple mechanism@@jaimhaas5170
This was a great episode. Sandra never let Bill run away with the show. She is the perfect balance to Bill.
Jeez. She should host this podcast for Bill. She is like the perfect person for him lol. Gets the best out of him. Keeps him focused
I can picture them sitting around the common room of the old folks’ home having this same conversation.
They are RIGHT NOW…kind of
And? They’re old. That’s what happens, unless you die first.
That's kind of the point of the podcast
That's what they're doing
I hope that goes on!
This episode should be called the Sandra Bernard Show. She was an excellent interviewer. I learned so much about Bill. Thank you Sandra. The two of you are awesome.
I could watch these two talk for days.
Is your heart functioning.
Sorry to hear.
Such great chemistry right??
@@jaimhaas5170 LOL! They always devert into the yiddish language and aphorisms, leaving the audience saying "WTF are they going on about?"
Love how she is absolutely interviewing him.
Very refreshing. She's keeping Bill in check, effortlessly. No constant interrupting!
cause it's not an interview, it's a conversation
Happens a lot on Cub Radom; Bill's such a raging narcissist, I always end up learning more about him. He's pedantic, he's pompous, and though I wouldn't use the term self-deprecating-he's always kidding when he says anything negative about himself, he does seem to be aware of the fact. He's mentioned several times how he thinks he'd be perfect for the role of Henry Higgins in My Fair Lady...and he's probably right.
Margaret Cho did likewise.
@@m0j0b0ne no game anymore. Hard to watch and never wrong.
THIS episode is GREAT. I LOVE they are buddies. Have loved Sandy for decades.
It's been awhile that I sat and watched Bill's whole show and yes this was worth it. 👏
Ew
Yea it was a good one. And I appreciate that she turned the tables Around on Bill and grilled him for a bit. He’s always trying to dodge questions about himself. Especially his “love” life. So I guess he is still dating the young Canadian singer He’s been on and off again with for years.
I likd that too, it was so funny @@HH-gv8mx
you should watch the Bill Burr episode. it'll make you rethink how great you think this man is..
The only 2 shows that I could not watch all the way through were Boy George (because he´s an efffing crazy pillhead) and Burr (a phoney who drones on and on, ad nauseum, about how he loves his wife and kids and actually thinks it´s amusing to adults for a comedian to talk in ¨funny voices¨). I have it on good knowledge, that a man who truly loves his family does not mention it at every possible opportunity.
Sandra is the exact kind of 80s/90s famous that bill really looked up to, and you can tell in this podcast
By that I mean - no one today knows about Sandra, but she got famous in the time that Bill wanted to get famous, & you can tell with how he compliments her
Egg 🥚 sactly!!!! I was she was still more relevant to more people!!
pop culture is always for the youth of the moment. Sandy has kept her fans for decades and that speaks to her talent.
She was a series regular on “Roseanne”
See: Judy Tenuta
The honesty of experience, is a GREAT vision to behold!!!👏👏👏👏
I think this is exactly what Club Random was intended to be.
True, a women controlled his constant interrupting and got him to talk about history. About time.
Well they're on the right show for it.
Old folks home?
@@vettevegas You’ll know when you’re in one, whatever you may call it.
@@vettevegasThere’s nothing wrong with being old.
Have to say this was one of the absolute best episodes of Club Random I've ever seen. 👍 I wish they had done a full two hours....Bill and Sandra have amazing chemistry and engaged in a GREAT dialogue.
Yassss
I’ve always found Sandra so interesting! Loved her on Roseanne
hahahahahaha after Bill Burr you think she's the best???
Yes, Fran Lebowitz was my favorite Geust, Sandra is as entertaining.
She doesn't let Bill dominate the conversation, which isn't always the case.
Still Love you Sandra, so nice to see you still have your Magical Powerful Charm, I watched the whole video and will watch it again because of you!!
I am a huge fan of Sandra Bernhard from the beginning. Big crush as a young man.
Was it the mick Jagger lips?
She's unbelievably unattractive
@@jaimhaas5170 🤣
@@jaimhaas5170 I wouldn't be surprised if there was/is some "sweetness" for Carly Simon as well with the facial fitting of the few..🙂
You must be kidding 😂
Families alienating each other - sometimes inexplicably - is more common, I think, than most of us realize.
imo : for me : possibly , the best Club Random ever ! I love how Sandra Bernhard has aged so beautifully !
Agreed, one of the best
I love how she Hasn’t!
A bit too much filler she sounded like her lips were too full
Her lips a huuuuuge!!
Kardashian lips for sure.
Sandra askes Bill some good, hard hitting questions! She needs her own podcast..
She has one on Sirius
Sandyland on SXM
Notice how fast they got off the playboy mansion parties stories and bills attendance at those parties 😊😅
I like that went deep and asked probing personal questions. I didn't like her self serving proclamation at the beginning to not want to get into the encroachment against the freedom of artistic expression.
Bill Burr put it well a few years ago when he said something like "yeah it's boring to rage about cancel culture...but yall still did that shit. Don't act like that wasn't a thing that happened."
And Bill answered a lot which tells you how he feels about her.
I love that she watches The Godfather every time its on, so cool.
Just like Bill. If she was younger, he'd love to go out with her. Missed it years ago.
@@deb9806😂come on she Is happily gay🎉
I watched the Godfather last night as a result of this
I wish Bill would have Francis Ford Coppola on. With the recent passing of Albert S. Ruddy, Coppola is one of the few behind the scenes people left.
I do the same, cannot stop if I see it for ten seconds, lol.
One of the few times I wished an interview could've gone on for hours.
It had it all!
Agreed!💥💯
Egg 🥚 sactly I did Not Not want this one to end one of my Fava of club random
Why? she's a moron.
She didn’t let him interview her or go into one of his rants… that’s what made this one different. What a gift to get to hang out with these two.
Sandra handles Bill well - she doesn't allow Bill to dominate the conversation. They seem very sympatico.
The woman's a national treasure.
Sarah Silverman handles him really well too. It's really cute to see them on together - she has a soft and adorable touch but she lets him know when his outrage meter is pegging too hard.
@@gtaylor6937I’m sure he loves a good peg
@@gtaylor6937 There's a Club Random with Sarah Silverman? I can't find it. That would be great. The best Club Randoms IMO have been when both Bill and the guest smoke up together.
@@farmingwithautism9159 I haven't seen them on Club Random - it's on his Real Time show. I wish he would have her on Random - that would be a gas.
I hope Bill has Sandra back for Part Deux!
Oh, Sandy! An original creative, talented, fearless, smart and funny. Loved the bantering, down to earth stories
Good balanced conversation. She held her own.
This is the best episode of Club Random yet.
Agree. I loved the Fran Leibowitz and Bryan Cranston episodes too 👍
55:40 When Bill's the one saying "can I finish???" you know that's a true gem of an episode.
Older guests! I think Bill gels so well with people around his own age. When Club Random has 20-40s, Bill just talks at them. Loved this!
But he can't date them. I laughed when an escort/model who went out with him a long time ago, said he loves to talk, you are like "whatever" but he loves to discuss movie/music, politics but wants 25 year olds who don't have his experience.
@@workinprogress-ye5or ha! The one who said he loves black women?
@@RitchieRosson A lot of people say that, but he dated models, porn stars I think who were more open to listening than others. This one said even if you didn't understand something, he'd explain it to you and educate you on it.
The BEST interview ever. What a great back and forth from them. Excellent.
Another great conversation between two engaging, witty, and intelligent people, also the most I have ever learned about Bill. That ending was perfect!!! Sandra said.... no, sir, I will not have any of that talk. This is who I am and what I know. This conversation is way too incendiary, so let's end it here on a high note!! That was great😂❤❤❤
And almost corny! I didn't know either of them could be ...
Bill slides from a classic lighter that he could not negotiate (or failed to refuel) to a Bic lighter …very smooth
Lighting weed with a zippo is 🤮
On pretty much every episode he starts with the Zippo, fails, and moves on to the Bic.
I really didn't need to know that Bill Mahar sleeps with just a shirt on.
LOL
Like who does??
I also do
Ooh, I can't unsee that picture
It makes me sad. I want someone to make an oil painting of this
GREAT video! Been watching Sandra since the 80s when she’d make her awesome guest appearances on David Letterman’s show! Really admire how she continues to be amazingly interesting, funny, witty and cosmopolitan through the decades! Interesting to find out from this video that Bill is Irish and Jewish; that Bill was an au pair for a rich NYC couple’s 3 kids; that Sandra’s dad is 100 years old and was beastly towards her, her mom and 2 brothers when they were kids (and is still estranged from them), and that Sandra tried to patch things up with him (but to no avail)…
I love Sandra Bernhard. She is so honest and has her own perspective. She does not join conformity as most phonies do. Under pressure if she does cave in, she knows that she compromised her values because she was caught between a rock and a hard place. She usually walks away from the masses of asses even if they are powerful. I'm so glad that she talked about her father and family. I did not feel so alone trying keep family together but too often it is impossible. I too was born in 1955.
Thanks for finally having an interesting guest, Bill!! Even Sandra though couldn't get Bill to answer personal questions, he always deflects.
Who cares
He always deflects because his personal life is unexplainable! and not what you expect from an intelligent Man-
Great point. I think he’s convinced people he never wanted marriage or a family.
He did spill some tea...he was honest.
Sandra Bernhard calling someone else odd looking is hilarious.😂
She looks pretty great for 68.
I think she’s sexy as fuck
That's funny I said the same thing.
@@tjk3430a brand new facelift
Bill resorting to “they must have bumped their head” insult just because someone isn’t a left wing lunatic
I’ll never stop being funny and loving to laugh my ass off. Laughing relieves stress and heals the body. Ya gotta laugh in this day and age.
I’m 70 and love comedy. So glad I grew up in the era that I did. And glad I’m on this side of my life and not just starting out.
You’re right about “Giant”. First time I watched it I was younger and thought it was good. Saw it recently and thought it was so long and boring. Sandra is right about the make-up. Terrible!
I enjoyed this podcast.
Ohhhh, you got that right! This new cloned generation will never experience anything authentic. Like a real 7up or Coca Cola, or RC, or Ultra Bright toothpaste and Lifeboy Soap for just a few examples.
Amen to that!
I've also read that laughter is great for bonding. It was an article on laughter, and it said that there are many times when we laugh, not because something is funny, but because it's a spontaneous bonding gesture with the person(s) with whom we are talking. "Laughter is a powerful tool for strengthening social bonds. It may have evolved to facilitate bonding across large groups of people1. Laughter releases chemicals that help build social bonds, and triggers the release of endorphins in brain regions responsible for arousal and emotion. When we laugh with one another, a positive bond is created, which acts as a strong buffer against stress, disagreements, and disappointment." (Psychology Today.) Others may already know this, but it's not something I really thought about till I saw this article. It is, however, something I have always felt...
I was waiting for Bill to say- 'James Dean was one of the most over-rated actors' .. Nice hair..Bad actor ..
@@RosemaryH4259it goes a long with how most people these days are so reticent to laugh with others, which confers with the loneliness and lack of deep bonding. No one sees you laughing on your phone.
I love whenever Bill says to a guest, "Let me finish!" 😂
She's not a paid date...
@@workinprogress-ye5or She sold her soul, so there's that.
“King of Comedy” an all time classic, and sadly very relevant today.
agree 100% i know people that have no idea about this movie. Rent Late Night with the Devil.
it morphed into Joker. which led to riots in the streets. subversion of the audience, killing "johnny carson" on live tv, the crazy dance, etc we'll never know why Scorsese withdrew from the project, I think he saw it was TNT
Watched it again after this podcast. Underrated great film.
This lady is more than a match for Bill Maher. He can't get a word in.
Did you see him on Megyn Kelly last week?
I’m not much of a fan of Megyn but she talked circles around him.
He's been talking about himself for ages... its not all that
I've always liked her, she's evolved, Bill? Not so much.
@@lindaflesch7303I agree, I'm a fan of Maher but his flaw is not allowing enough "stage time" for the person who is a guest on his show.
@@lindaflesch7303Perfect comment! She’s found peace and happiness, she’s super cool!
It's refreshing to see two people share ice out of a bucket and not be paranoid and have to use tongs or gloves or whatever
It's gross. ie E Coli. 🤮
Alcohol kills the bacteria, I'd assume
Oh cmon
You have to hear older generations talk about this kind of thing. They will tell you how they played outside in dirt and mud, never worried about picking up a nail in their foot, etc., etc. And somehow they survived.
@@lindaflesch7303
i.e. coli is my thought, too. I don't even like my spouse to not use tongs.
It's better to miss them most of the time than to be over them all of the time. That's GOLD Bill, I swear that's genius and what I believe. Now I will steal your quote because I have to, I can't do better. Damn, this episode was awesome, Sandra is a great interviewer, more gold there.
I can't lie I am enjoying the ship out of the interview with Sandra Bernard
5:28 Bill sleeping Winnie the Pooh style was not on my Bingo Card.
Did not see that coming as well
😂
Donald Duck too.
😂
Yea that was nuts. Pause.
I have always loved Sandra as she is always so honest, like Fran.
She was authentic WAY b4 it became a buzzword. I, too, always liked her.
THANK you. Always said that, too! : Fran’s aire apparent.
His show with her was good too
Liebowitz or Drescher?
She's pretty brainwashed.
This was honestly the best exchange I’ve ever seen with Mahr and someone else. I’ve always loved Sandra Bernhardt & forgot that she is a Michigander, too!! Not far from where I live.
Thank you so much for having the delightful Sandra on! It's the Iowa writers workshop, considered the best Masters program for creative writing.
University of Iowa
Excellent!! Enjoyed this very much. Bill, quit making us beg for Carley Simon dammit !!!
I love hearing these stories from NYC in the 1970s and 80s ! Eg I used to crash at Larry David’s 😂
My first of her was Bunny ball ball! And I.
Had to take in all the Houston shows etc.She's a classic and it was entertaining to see them two.Deep diving each other.
We blinked and bam 60😂
Sandra Bernhardt will always be my Follow That Bird favourite character!! I had it recorded from tv on VHS and watched it 1000 times 💕 I sing “one little star” and “ain’t no road too long” to my kids 💕
Loved her for decades! “1 Tossed Salad, Comin Up! 😂😂😂
Wow! She says exactly what I think
Wouldn't it be better if YOU said it?!
Love Sandra. She outshines Bill on this podcast. Intelligent and Wise. She is funny,perceptive,and a class act.
I like her...she inquisitive and makes the show more fun.
Wouldn't want to live with her though
I agree with Both of you! Do her and Roseanne still speak? Does anyone know? They didn’t go there
I always liked her even when I was young in early 90s she reminds me of woman I grew up around in philly
I love Sandra!! Please have her back. The chemistry between her and Bill was great. My new favorite episode - I couldn't stop giggling, this was a hilarious one 😆
A Great episode ....Loved How Bernhard turned the tables on Maher in the most gentle way....class....
As someone who's been very disappointed by this podcast because it's essentially Bill pontificating and not listening to his guests, this interview is hands-down the BEST one I've seen.
Bill, buy some ice tongs for heaven sake!!! Good interview, I had not listened to Sandra for years. Smart lady. It is always interesting how defensive Bill gets when questioned about his sexuality or his dating status.
Bill has tongs and he's used them at least ONCE.
Epstein files?
Gross for the guests..."I'll have mine neat"
@@dcool2u2 Funny....very neat
He was always a strange looking dude .....says Sandry😮
I remember having a crush on Sandra during my teen years lol. She wasn't the sexiest female around but something about her personality and vibe got my attention. Good interview Bill🔥👍🔥
Butter face.
She was confident.
@@RocStarr913confidence is sexy AF. I can't believe how many women much prettier than SB are total sad sacks.
I know what you mean. She always projected the vibe that you can hang out and discuss anything, including personal stuff and she would be brutally honest while simultaneously being compassionate and nonjudgmental.
That is just my impression of her persona at least, and I have known people like her
Major crush!
I could watch these two all day. 😂
Most entertaining interview yet. Thanks, Bill. 😊
these two are bat-shit crazy and I love them both !!
OMG, I loved this so much!
I'm so happy to see this 😊
URBAN COWBOY is a classic, still holds up & doesn’t feel dated.
100%
SANDRA!!! I remember when she used to go to The Cubby Hole with Madonna.❤❤❤ "Get into the Groove" 80sss❤❤❤
I bar tended at the cubby hole!
Not the original one, when they moved in the 90s.❤
Madonna and Rosie O'Donnell were also close friends when their kids were small.
Can’t wait to watch Sandra watch Bill interview himself.
@Son3002 Lol. However, 22 minutes in, don’t think it’s gonna happen - Bill can hardly get a word in.
Always a bit of truth to that. John Fogerty is my favorite rocker of all time and watching him being interviewed by Bill was mostly watching Bill explain music to John, because, you know, Bill is the expert on the topic.
Then why do you watch if you hate him so much
@@troycul6552It's rare that someone can say however many words you said, what, 11? And I can be sure I'd dislike you strongly if we ever met. "...hate him so much." Nothing in the original comment said anything at all about hate. Bad enough without the "so much" but you went ahead and made an already terrible comment even worse. You sound like a fuuuucking child. An ex of mine did this constantly, took something I said and misconstrued, exaggerated and otherwise got it completely wrong, then tried to say it back to me like you did here. Gaslighting in the 2nd degree: an unintentional consequence of your utter failure to communicate effectively. I'm sure you do this all the time to the people in your life, or you did, before they cut you out...
This whole Podcast was so Amazing watching Bill Duck & Dodge All of Sandra’s Relationship/ Marriage questions! 😂🤣
Urban Cowboy is an excellent movie. I love re-watching it from time to time. The music is incredible.
Did she just say her photos in Playboy were "a damn good spread"? 😁
Pun intended.
Another great random guest
Well done, Bill
watch her 80s performances on Letterman and discover her genius
These 2 were incredible together - funny, vulnerable, probing. It felt like eavesdropping on an intimate phone call!
Instantly one of my favorite episodes of Club Random! So entertaining, relaxed and full of friendly & comedic banter!
I would have loved to hang with them! Always loved Sandra!
This is a funny episode.
Always fun to watch one of the great personalities of the last century. Sandra is a smart, edgy, compassionate thinker who's never afraid to be her hilariously outrageous self. Shes truly one of a kind and an authentic American treasure.
❤🎉😊
LOVE Sandra & Bill! I would watch the Sandra and Bill Show all day, all night! Very fun -- More women, Bill! (I don't have to tell YOU, tho' do I?)
The early-90s HBO special where Sandra sang Ella Fitzgerald’s “Coffee Time” is still an all-time favorite. ❤️
loved 'King of Comedy'. Also went to see her do a one woman show,, New Year's Eve in San Francisco around '90 or so. She was a riot.
Great episode!
An actual conversation instead of a Maher lecture. Other than Shatner the only one of these I’ve watched all the way through.
Thank you for interviewing my favorite person of all time❤what a treat Bill and it was good to hear how your lives intertwined.
Probably the best episode of the podcast, and I've watched every one! Great chemistry
This was a curve ball and in the end an utter pleasure. These are the real insiders with unhinged opinions.
Two of the greatest comics and interesting conversationalists. Love this seeing them together!
No better matchup than these two. Fearless Sandra!
Sandra is a national treasure.
Amen
So glad she is on Club Random!
National treasure? 🤣🤣🤣
Please explain why
4:28 ha..gotcha!
Never heard of them.
She was the waitress in the Sesame street movie Follow That Bird. "2 TOSSED SALADS!"
She can put Mahet in his place Thank goodness.
Maher in his place
Maher Always wants his guests to interview Him
By far the best Club Random p-cast to date!!! One of the best podcasts of all time in this type of interview genre!!
Love Sandra. Man I miss people like her. And she’s absolutely correct. Urban Cowboy is a great movie.
Fran Leibowitz, Sandra Bernhard, and Bill Maher are basically the same person atp.
Also -
The clawing at ice cubes then adding tinctures as I giggle uncontrollably is the level of cringe i aspire to
Love them
Fun episode!
One of my favorite episodes . Shes Asking Bill constant & Interesting questions . Bill not being able to filibuster as he often does.
