Charlie Sheen joins Bill Maher for an off-the-rails, hilarious, and unexpectedly heartfelt ride through fame, fallout, and second (and third... and fourth) chances. From his stolen Mercedes getting pushed off a cliff to carving Christmas prime rib in jail, Charlie’s stories are pure Sheen – wild, funny, and shockingly sincere. The two trade tales about Martin Sheen’s legacy, Gary Busey’s chaos, UFOs, baseball luck, and Mad Men fandom – and Bill drops a philosophy he learned from Charlie: “When you’re ready to leave a restaurant, just put the cash down and go. I call it Sheening it.”

ABOUT CLUB RANDOM

Bill Maher rewrites the rules of podcasting the way he did in television in this series of one on one, hour long conversations with a wide variety of unexpected guests in the undisclosed location called Club Random. There’s a whole big world out there that isn’t about politics and Bill and his guests—from Bill Burr and Jerry Seinfeld to Jordan Peterson, Quentin Tarantino and Neil DeGrasse Tyson—talk about all of it.

ABOUT BILL MAHER

Bill Maher was the host of “Politically Incorrect” (Comedy Central, ABC) from 1993-2002, and for the last fourteen years on HBO’s “Real Time,” Maher’s combination of unflinching honesty and big laughs have garnered him 40 Emmy nominations. Maher won his first Emmy in 2014 as executive producer for the HBO series, “VICE.” In October of 2008, this same combination was on display in Maher’s uproarious and unprecedented swipe at organized religion, “Religulous.”

Maher has written five bestsellers: “True Story,” “Does Anybody Have a Problem with That? Politically Incorrect’s Greatest Hits,” “When You Ride Alone, You Ride with Bin Laden,” “New Rules: Polite Musings from a Timid Observer,” and most recently, “The New New Rules: A Funny Look at How Everybody But Me Has Their Head Up Their Ass.”
