Happy GHOUL YEAR (inexplicably laughs like the Crypt Keeper but then I have a hacking coughing fit in the middle of it and die)

Feel free to leave a comment with your own Bill Maher moments we've covered over the last year that have deeply embedded themselves in your mind. In all sincerity, thanks to everybody for your support over the last year, I am extremely grateful that people enjoy the show. See you in 2026.

That shot is hilarious! I'm starting to drive my husband nuts talking about your podcast in much the same way you might be distressing your wife. . . I'm going to send him this image today! Thank you!

Does anyone know HOW Maher came to believe that Louis Pasteur disavowed germ theory on his deathbed? It's such a weird claim, and BM is OBSESSED with it. EDIT: Okay, so I asked Google, and here is part of the AI overview it produced: The claim that Louis Pasteur disavowed germ theory is a myth, often stemming from his deathbed remark, "The microbe is nothing, the soil is everything," which actually highlighted the importance of host health (terrain theory) alongside germs, not a rejection of germs themselves; he was always a champion of germs as pathogens, but later realized the body's condition (the soil) was crucial for infection, integrating host factors with microbial causes. The "Disavowal" Myth Explained The Quote: Pasteur reportedly told his doctor, "Bernard avait raison. Le germe n'est rien, c'est le terrain qui est tout!" (Bernard was right. The microbe is nothing, the soil is everything!). The Context: This referred to Claude Bernard's terrain theory (or pleomorphism), which focused on the body's internal environment. Pasteur wasn't abandoning germs but acknowledging that a healthy body ("soil") could resist infection, while a weakened one ("poor soil") made infection easier, even with the same "seed" (germ).

haven’t watched the comp yet and this may not be in there, but the thing that’s been driving me insane since his trump dinner is how, in his “book report” afterwards, he kept saying trump is grounded and shit, and then gives ZERO specific examples. the two specific stories he does tell are of trump admiring reagan for his hair and trump only just now coming to understand that presidents have dogs because people like dogs. THOSE ARE BOTH WEIRD NOT-GROUNDED THINGS! HE COULDN’T RECOUNT ONE NORMAL THING THE GUY SAID BEYOND TRUMP LISTENING WHEN HE SAID STUFF! AAAAAGH!
