Summary
The hilarious and controversial host of HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher has written his funniest, most opinionated, and most necessary book ever—a brilliantly astute and acerbically funny vivisection of American life, politics, and culture.

Some of the smartest commentary about what’s happening in America is coming from a comedian—this comedian being Bill Maher. If you want to understand what’s wrong with this country, it turns out that one of the best informed and most thought-provoking analysts is this very funny pothead.

The book was inspired by the “editorial” Bill delivers at the end of each episode of Real Time. These editorials are direct-to-camera sermons about culture, politics, and what’s happening in the world. To put this book together, Maher reviewed more than a decade of his editorials, rewriting, reimagining, and updating them, and adding new material to speak exactly to the moment we’re in. Free speech, cops, drugs, race, religion, the generations, cancel culture, the parties, the media, show biz, romance, health—Maher covers it all. The result is a hugely entertaining work of commentary about American culture in the tradition of Mark Twain, Will Rogers, and H. L. Mencken.

I regularly watch Bill on Real time, so nothing said was really surprising to me. Pretty much a repeat of views and facts that have been mentioned over the years on his HBO show.

I never laughed out load in so many inappropriate places. Whether on a long plane ride or working out in the gym, I would get strange looks from folks who were looking at me wondering what the heck is he laughing about? While teaching you, Bill Maher has the ability to make you laugh in the middle of imparting knowledge. Thus far I have gifted this book to two friends who have thanked me continuously for the gift and the smiles that reading the book put on their faces. A "Must Read" for anyone interested int political affairs of the day, but also for those that need to see and hear a different perspective and have a need to smile or laugh at it all.

Bill was Bill at his best. If you like Bill you'll like it if you don't, you won't.
