Maher's monologue and comedy bits hit on all cylinders. Perry was surprisingly candid and funny. But my favorite was Jonathan Haidt. Bill should have had him on a few episodes back when the conversations were centered on sociology.
I could listen to Haidt for hours. Think I'll try to dig up that 60 minutes segment.
Thank you Rhiannon12866 for another season of RealTime!
