Tallison Rausch Yeah. And she keeps referring to the audience as 'intellectuals' which I personally have a problem with. Are intellectuals the people who can't handle the word 'fuck'?
+Atul Gupta OF COURSE! FUCK! Atul you nailed it. Interesting, I have a problem with intellectuals myself. They are so--so smart, Is that the word? FUCK FUCK, I'm comfortable with the word, and by God I can handle it ... even if I'm too old to think about it much.
+Ray Provence PS and when I do think about sex, I take solace in the fact that in 1915 I could have bought the entire family for $15.00 a piece post paid and probably a discount for Cait and Kanye.
+Tallison Rausch Painful is a good description. She is sooooo out of her league interviewing Maher. After everything he says she gets this blank, confused look accompanied by an uncomfortable pause. I wonder who she is related to or had to sleep with to get this gig, because she sucks at it.
You can make so much fun of that lady. In the beginning she was trying to take the wrong seat, she struggles to keep up and the letters on her microphone are upside-down. Bill Maher totally dominates in this video like a boss.
I love how he is making her so uncomfortable. And how she keeps on trying to get him to stop swearing. Hahahahah we're not late night we're academic. Hahahahahhaha
My first thumbs down on UA-cam EVER, because this was simply brutal! An absolutely terrible interview, in terms of both content and inquisitor, along with atrocious audio. Painful to watch. Bill holds his own though, like he always does. He blows this poor woman's mind like 8 times during the course of this 45 minute interview. You can actually see her jaw hit the floor. And that's why he's an American Hero in my opinion, because he speaks objective truth and doesn't care about the consequences. That is so extremely rare in today's world, especially among celebrities and the media (and by extension, of course, Politics).
Inaccurately titled video,Bill Maher did not get "Grilled", he got annoyed. With this unprepared, unprofessional, deer in a headlights, weak, fidgety, inferior, alleged journalist.
Honestly if you can say she knew what she was doing-you should see Maher interview someone. That's how interviewing is done right. She HAD NO CLUE wtf she was doing.
It is painful to watch, she's really not there ... maybe she's high? Or there's a problem with Oxygen getting to her brain? The sign being upside down on her microphone was probably an indicator.
+Beorn Borg Disconnect between her saying she loves his show and then acts so uncomfortable. It's seems she got pushed out the door hours before being ready? Just awkward. Don't go into "journalism" if you have terrible stage fright, lots of great behind the scenes jobs for you. Also, was the audience even conscious? I'm with you, it looked painful for Bill and I also can't believe I didn't turn it off half way through.
I've never heard of the Grill, but it looks pretty amateur. Nervous host, mic issues, unnecessary camera pans, the mic sleeve is upside down.. I really love the intro line: "we don't want clanging plates we got Bill Mahr coming"
"Who cares who thought of it?" Rather wraps up the biggest problem in the states with one simple question. Americans have many great ideas, sure, but America would do so much better if we didn't squirm at the thought of doing things "their way". Nothing wrong with using foreign ideas, and adapting them for the domestic situation.
Agreed, I'm an American and in the military. Isn't the important thing at the end is that we didn't have to go to war, bombs weren't dropped and we didn't have to give up blood… This interviewer is not very intelligent, she thinks she is, she's stated this is a intelligent crowd… not convincing me...
This is painful watching. She doesn't seem to know what she wants to ask him, they have no banter and the audience sounds like it's made up entirely of tumbleweeds
Mixing this woman up with any kind of sex-talk or image of..She’s like why someone would repeat in their head ‘dead dogs dead dogs’ cause they needed to stop being turned-on. ‘Sharon Waxman Sharon Waxman’
You ain't lying!! I just want to shake her and say you're one stupid bitch!!! You're asking the most dumbest questions I've ever heard anyone ask anybody!!! You've obviously not researched anything regarding Bill Maher and what he represents as an HBO talk show host!!! Godamn!! I can't watch it anymore. And I didn't subscribe!!
Is this lady still working, ... in communications? I'm really not familiar with her but, to give her the benefit of the doubt, she may merely be uneasily discombobulated by the impact of interviewing and addressing the outspoken, competent and brilliant Bill Mahr?
She's not as fluid as Maher, or as knowledgeable and that makes for a slow interview. Bill handled it well but I'll bet he was dying to get away from that interview.
Bill, I didn't think it was possible for me to admire you any more than I actually already do, but fuck me, your patience with the asininity of this bird's questions to you is deeply commendable. Nice work soldier.
Waxman really needs to practice her interviewing skills. Stuttering, awkward pauses, strange comments when trying to be funny. She didn't need to be funny, that's why Bill Maher was there.
This interviewer with the upside down logo on her mic is the most amateur train wreck I've seen. She's rude to Maher the whole time and so shaky that she can hardly form a question. What a dope.
Okay. This woman is so painfully awkward, it's actually kind of funny to watch. I'm not gonna say it's not a total waste of time to watch it to then end, but it is amusing to watch his patience diminish as she anxiously paws through her (torn out) notebook pages for the next question.
Yeah I felt it the moment she started talking and it intensified and continued on long enough that I can understand what a friend once said about cringe making him have second-handed suicidal urges lol.
What an embarrassing situation. The interviewer and the audience suck big time. PS: I do feel for Bill Maher, but he should choose his gigs with more intelligence.
Oh boy....she must have been dropped on her head as a baby. ...respect Bill for not ripping her apart. I think he is politely holding back his laughter.
Worst interviewer I have ever seen, I actually think this must have been her filling in for someone else and she failed miserably, She seemed anti- Bill, anti- Obama, totally not professional in any way.... crazy
Watching her fumble through her notes made me feel sorry for Bill Maher having to sit through this sorry interview. She came off as unprepared, intern in training like, and I'm positive she doesn't watch his show. I loved how uncomfortable she got after Maher used grownup language. The Grill? More like The Easy Bake Oven.
All bias aside, this lady is not a very good interviewer. Her charisma is abysmal, and she keeps making (which seem to be unintentional) condescending/rude comments… it’s possible she was just nervous because of how much she likes Bill Maher
Geez, poor Bill! Watching this "journalistic gem" of an "interview" was a real pain in the ass. Can just assume how Bill must have felt during those 45 minutes. Like that mic, Sharon Waxman should retire. Now.
Bill Maher grilled? It's he who grills with intellectual reason. Respect yet again earned.
Yeah this was one of Bill’s better showings.
Oh man. Her first mistake was assuming she could take him on by wits alone. Painful.
Tallison Rausch Yeah. And she keeps referring to the audience as 'intellectuals' which I personally have a problem with. Are intellectuals the people who can't handle the word 'fuck'?
+Atul Gupta OF COURSE! FUCK! Atul you nailed it. Interesting, I have a problem with intellectuals myself. They are so--so smart, Is that the word? FUCK FUCK, I'm comfortable with the word, and by God I can handle it ... even if I'm too old to think about it much.

The fact that her mic logo is upside-down is a brilliant analogy for this interview.
ZachLeeWright That said, she seems like a very nice person.
I spotted that too--prior to Maher's entrance.
5 years ago and still a great comment
@@scottym9778 IRRELEVANT
🤣😅😆🤣😅😅🤣👍
Bill intellectually shamed this woman without even trying one iota
The Grill? What a joke! Bill handled this interviewer with class. He could have shredded her.
I agree. He was extremely generous, and he carried it for her. I have new respect for him. What a prince. Lol.
Lame host and a lame crowd. Weird interview. Maher was awesome.
Bill leaves her flustered after every answer! He absolutely crushed this!!!
This is a very smart man. He can be just as funny.
And he dates Models
Right, he really grilled that interviewer.
100% He's great
Never agree to do an interview with an organization that can't find someone who knows how to work a tripod.
Bill Maher's business intellectual interviewer puts herself onto the grill.
She is horrible. She is the shining example of the downfall of journalism.
She probably got her job because she gave good head to the boss.
The woman is just clueless. Haha. It's like Bill is talking to someone who has no idea what's going on
These bitches that want the mic...FAIL. they just want to bring attention to themselves. They don't give a flying fuck about content.
She is terrible, I can't believe someone thought she could do this interview.
You can make so much fun of that lady. In the beginning she was trying to take the wrong seat, she struggles to keep up and the letters on her microphone are upside-down. Bill Maher totally dominates in this video like a boss.
Yeah, she's a fucking mess.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed that the letters on her microphone were upside down! 😂😂
My god is this woman a horrible interviewer. I would love it if I never had to hear or see her again.
I love how he is making her so uncomfortable. And how she keeps on trying to get him to stop swearing. Hahahahah we're not late night we're academic. Hahahahahhaha
How did this media person get this job??????? Her "interview" is embarrassing!!!
Rusty White
It is cringeworthy....especially.when she called herself an intellect...far from it.
Sharon Waxman is the worse interviewer I have ever seen.
Maybe, but look at those legs.
shouldn't be a part of journalism... but pushed to be as an substitution :))
Who is she?
Wow how did this lady get this job seriously?
Really seems like the interviewer did not do her research on Bill well enough.
Bill Maher Gets Grilled by Sharon Waxman? More like "Sharon Waxman failed to grill Bill Maher -_-
My first thumbs down on UA-cam EVER, because this was simply brutal!

+Paul Ainsile She seemed to have an agenda and was not going to waver from it, no matter how awkward and stupid it became.
Yea she is pretty brutal to watch. Is that really what they consider a business intellectual?
Easy on the thesaurus there, fella!
My comment was a tad wordy but I would argue that none of those words were thesaurus'y, if that's a word?
Hey you know what? Fuck you fella.
lel
Worst. Interviewer. Ever. Maher is great as usual.
Locutus D'Borg It sounds like she took a bunch of shots and then wrote down some questions 10 minutes before the interview...
Locutus D'Borg Couldn't. Agree. With. You. More!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Locutus D'Borg Ok, she told some shitty jokes... but her questions were more interesting than most.
Honestly if you can say she knew what she was doing-you should see Maher interview someone. That's how interviewing is done right. She HAD NO CLUE wtf she was doing.
And Bill Maher is amazing...a real class act. If I were him, I wouldn't have wasted my time with this amateur.
She was intimidated by Mahr. That audience was like dead fish.
She started acting awkward even before Bill came in. That's just probably just how she is.
It is painful to watch, she's really not there ... maybe she's high? Or there's a problem with Oxygen getting to her brain? The sign being upside down on her microphone was probably an indicator.
+Beorn Borg And this woman actually graduated from Columbia and Oxford. Really goes to show how little credentials really mean.
***** OK, but her degree was in philosophy. :) (being a smart ass)

Christopher Anthony Keep it classy :)

Waxman possesses the absolutely indispensable qualifications for a conservative, female personality: Blond hair and a short dress.
Look at Fox news, dumbest of the dumb blondes.
God, she's painful to listen to. They couldn't find someone with the ability to string one intelligent sentence together?
I love it that the audience suck. that leaves me 2 hear bill with clarity. I'm British too
Haha
What is up with this interviewer? Her tone sounds like she's skeptical about everything Maher says. Very strange.
I've never heard of the Grill, but it looks pretty amateur. Nervous host, mic issues, unnecessary camera pans, the mic sleeve is upside down.. I really love the intro line: "we don't want clanging plates we got Bill Mahr coming"

Somebody forgot to light the GRILL!
I have to agree with those critisizing this woman. She might be a fine journalist, but she's horrible as an interviewer
"If you're getting it from both sides, you're doing something right"
FUCK YEAHHHHHH
This is painful to watch. So many awkward moments. This interviewer is terrible!
Maher should have asked her to hike her dress up plenty so we could see a lot more thigh, since there wasn't much else going on in this.

Man! this is awkward, but let me tell ya if anyone's on the fucking Grill its Sharon...
She's not as fluid as Maher, or as knowledgeable and that makes for a slow interview. Bill handled it well but I'll bet he was dying to get away from that interview.
this is embarrassing to watch. bill makes a statement... dead silence... host replies, "ok"
As unprepared this lady was, Palin is a category in herself. She's beyond beyond.
Bill, I didn't think it was possible for me to admire you any more than I actually already do, but fuck me, your patience with the asininity of this bird's questions to you is deeply commendable. Nice work soldier.
More like Bill Maher gets parboiled by a terrible interviewer. Is she drunk?
Also, spheres don't have tips.

No but spear*s do
Haven't you ever seen a bitch on coke? Como'n now
Melissa Carlill She was not very good, but he was not being very helpful to lighten the mood in my opinon.
Melissa Carlill Bitch needs to learn to speak INTO the mic, she's a noob
This video she be titled, "Sharon Waxman asks Bill Maher Mostly Stupid Questions."
I don't understand why people put videos that finish mid-sentence... i really don't
You really had to end your comment , “ I really d
Waxman really needs to practice her interviewing skills. Stuttering, awkward pauses, strange comments when trying to be funny. She didn't need to be funny, that's why Bill Maher was there.
Bill's show deserves an emmy for every year it has aired.
So many bad questions. What a waist of an opportunity... Grilled? More like slightly annoyed endlessly reiterating his well known positions.
She said "i think of myself as an intellectual business person" LMFAO ! The best remark of the whole show!
This interviewer with the upside down logo on her mic is the most amateur train wreck I've seen. She's rude to Maher the whole time and so shaky that she can hardly form a question. What a dope.
Well 10 min into the interview, she realised she can't grill him.
Bill Maher is an intellect of common sense
I love that.
My OCD is killing me because of those up side down letters in the microphone.
Tabloid Journalist vs. Intellectual Comedian
Okay. This woman is so painfully awkward, it's actually kind of funny to watch. I'm not gonna say it's not a total waste of time to watch it to then end, but it is amusing to watch his patience diminish as she anxiously paws through her (torn out) notebook pages for the next question.
Yeah I felt it the moment she started talking and it intensified and continued on long enough that I can understand what a friend once said about cringe making him have second-handed suicidal urges lol.
So like... Is she starstruck or..?
I mean seriously what fell on her head? :[
does 'the wrap' not have lapel mics?
It's hard for anyone to match Bill Maher's wits. She clearly failed... You nearly feel sorry for her...
This is one of the worst and most unfunny interviewers I've ever seen.
What an embarrassing situation. The interviewer and the audience suck big time.
PS: I do feel for Bill Maher, but he should choose his gigs with more intelligence.
1CivilRightsActivist for realz
Shocked to find out she's a journalist, author, went to Barnard and Oxford and has a Master's Degree!
At 15:01 they have lost me. Love Bill Always, but these bullshit questions are torture. So much for the "intellectuals"
Sharon Waxman made a right mess of this interview as many of the posts have pointed out.
How much more of the interview is there? It just cuts off at the end.
I concur with the general opinion... She really needs some work on her interview skills, this is painful.
I really like Maher but this was a terribly awkward interview.
....I could sense his discomfort.
and then HER discomfort topped it.
Aaaand the Dislike goes to..................................... The interviewer !
Keep spreading the word Bill, especially on atheism.
Wow. She is a dreadful interviewer
I finally watched this, Bill was so cool.
Oh boy....she must have been dropped on her head as a baby.
...respect Bill for not ripping her apart. I think he is politely holding back his laughter.
she needs to take a few notes from Howard Stern on how to interview
It's painful to watch. What is wrong with that woman
she's just not a good interviewer.
When Maher is interviewed, he always has a look on his face like he's being probed by aliens.
NoIsaidposse I love the fact that he's comfortable in his own skin no matter who interviews him or what network he's on
She seems nervous and intimidated
Soar like an eagle through the windshield. HAHAHA! No one laughed? I laughed my head off by my self. (10:10)
Worst interviewer I have ever seen, I actually think this must have been her filling in for someone else and she failed miserably, She seemed anti- Bill, anti- Obama, totally not professional in any way.... crazy
the interview ends prematurely, does anyone have the rest?
"WRAP" is upside down on Sharon's mic. Is that by design ? If that is the case then "WRAP" is upside on Maher's mic .... WTF
Dear "The Wrap", Please demote this broad to coffee duty. - viewers
Watching her fumble through her notes made me feel sorry for Bill Maher having to sit through this sorry interview. She came off as unprepared, intern in training like, and I'm positive she doesn't watch his show. I loved how uncomfortable she got after Maher used grownup language. The Grill? More like The Easy Bake Oven.
I can only assume this is her first interview. Right?
kylem2712 I think she was more intimidated by his response than anything even though it's her platform. She wasn't in control lol
Sharon Waxman is super awkward in this. Hard to watch.
holy shit could this be any more awkward.
Soccercrazyigboman --- quite difficult to watch; positive he wanted to just get up & leave.
It’s excruciating.
Waxman is the one getting grilled. by the way she is horrible at this! uninformed!
Poor woman. She's beautiful, and seemingly intelligent, but she's clearly much better at everything else. This is so hard to watch.
I love you, Bill! Keep fighting the good fight! You're my hero! Your voice is mine (though much more masculine). LOL
That's a grilling? He was carrying her for most of it.
Title should be "interviewer made an ass of herself".
All bias aside, this lady is not a very good interviewer. Her charisma is abysmal, and she keeps making (which seem to be unintentional) condescending/rude comments… it’s possible she was just nervous because of how much she likes Bill Maher
I do not like Sharon Waxman. She is not smart enough to do this show.
This was painful to watch. This journalist needs to go back to school. Way over her head!
This interview is deeply painful....awful host!
Maher should have been like, "No, I saw Suzie in the elevator, but she didn't ask me for a joint. She DID ask me for a bag of crack, however."
"Now you speak..." Lmao
Lmao
This interviewer is atrocious. How did she even get this job?
Nice
I do poker podcasts
and this lady has helped me a lot
in terms of showing how not to do an interview :)
Geez, poor Bill! Watching this "journalistic gem" of an "interview" was a real pain in the ass. Can just assume how Bill must have felt during those 45 minutes. Like that mic, Sharon Waxman should retire. Now.
