    EVERYTIME Fogerty was getting to the point of a very short comment/story, BILL WOULD CUT HIM OFF. At one point, when Fogerty was talking about his early years in the industry, Bill shuts him up by saying “I don’t care about that. “ and rudely steers him to his later period. Bill is so intent on SHOWING OFF and patting himself on the back about his acumen, in this case musical, that he doesn’t listen to most of his guests. It’s as if a guest is just there to talk until they stoke an idea that Bill has a thought or opinion that he wants to showcase. I scream at the computer screen more watching Bill than any other interviewer/chat person. ALSO, his vulgar adolescent references to woman and sexuality are so tiresome. Maher’s stunted maturity was tolerable before he was a senior citizen. Now it’s just creepy and I’m old too.
    ALSO, Maher is smarter and less of an obnoxious jerk when he is not stoned.

      U guys dont get it. Its not meant to be an interview format. Its two pple just chilling & chatting.& drinking...hence the slurring that happens too. U know how friends interject when a sentence is understood & pple are comfortable with each other...women tend to do this more & the convo overlap likr this & they are getting each others meaning, but men tend to do it less. This isnt about anyone's ego, plus they are drinking -be cool & get off Bill's nuts

      I think y'all are missing the point of the show. It's not a formal interview. It's about two people sitting around talking about random stuff. With this format, you learn a lot about the guest rather than if it was a Barbara Walters special. The guests seem more relaxed and open. Yes, Bill can dominate the conversation at times, but I think that helps keeps things rolling and puts the guest at ease.
