Marc Maron Had Real Time to Come After Bill Maher
Briefly

Marc Maron called Bill Maher "desperate" and said he could not do Maher's show because he always had a problem with Maher's tone. Maron elaborated that some boomers engage in a desperate chasing of relevance that changes how they approach their work and makes the whole undertaking feel desperate. Maron noted past appearances on Politically Incorrect and Real Time. He said Maher has good joke writers but that he cannot see past the desperation and what Maher is willing to do to stay in the conversation. Maron also criticized Maher for saying he agreed with "some of the things" Trump was doing and said, "It's like, dude, you're a bitch."
Maron went off on Bill Maher on Pod Save America, calling him "desperate" in an episode released August 24. "I can't do it," he said, when Jon Lovett asked him about Maher. "I always had a problem with his tone." He elaborated that with Maher, "and it happens with some of the other boomers, there's this desperate chasing of relevance that changes someone's mind in terms of how they approach what they do and also kind of makes the whole undertaking feel desperate."
"He's got good joke writers who know how to write for his tone, but I can't see past the desperation and what he's willing to do to stay in the conversation." Next, Maron claims Maher disappoints his entire family. Earlier this year, the WTF host criticized Maher for telling people that he agreed with "some of the things" that Trump was doing.
