Ana Kasparian | Club Random with Bill Maher
Club Random with Bill Maher
Reconciling Critique with Patriotism
Ana emphasizes loving the country while criticizing policies and urges seeing people beyond politics.
Ana Kasparian joins Bill Maher for a wild Club Random ride that swerves from Armenian moms with rolling pins and post-coital crossword puzzles to explosive debates on Israel-Gaza, trans rights, and California chaos. They spar thoughtfully on the AI job apocalypse and crime reforms gone wrong, Ana gets personal about her pandemic marriage, leaving the progressive bubble, and why she chose empathy over endless political rage. They clash hard on Israel-Gaza but never shut each other down– proving you can disagree fiercely and still respect the hell out of each other. Smart, funny, unfiltered, and surprisingly vulnerable.

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.”
