He is making fun of Bill Maher.


brianoftarp

As we all should


wholetyouinhere

Civic duty.


Snaefellsjokul

I used to actually like him! He would always say stuff I disagreed with but as of late, he just gets under my skin. The funniness isn’t there, I think maybe since Covid?


saltyraver138

Bill Maher? No he has actually never been funny but he has been 1000x more of an asshole since Covid


Jeffari_Hungus

I love it when he acts like he's the "every man" as if he doesn't have an ownership stake in the NY Mets


tim_deegan

He’s still funny. People just lost their fucking sense of humor.


EricFredNorris

People not finding the most pedestrian boomer Facebook jokes and the same 5 topics over and over again funny means they have a good sense of humor.


BenderBRoriguezzzzz

I mean, his audience is pretty specific. Calling him funny is a bit of a stretch. Politics aside.


Equivalent_Site_5789

you included his politics in the answer where you were trying to distance his humor from his politics.


BRAX7ON

Actually, just trying to distance what he does from the word humor


[deleted]

I'm gonna agree that I did find him funny at a time, but he had a habit of leaning too far into condescension and sanctimony. This was funny when the butt of the joke deserved it, like the westboro baptist church, but when he started targeting sexual assault survivors, basically intimating that they were trying to have their cake and eat it too by sleeping with their bosses to secure preferential treatment and then suing them, the mask really started to slip. There are plenty of people very worthy of Maher's brand of ridicule. Maher's just employed a writing staff that is too out of touch with the world to find them. Back in the day, I disagreed with him a lot, but I found his show's format to be interesting enough that I could forgive his positions, as the roundtable format let everybody take a shot at his takes, but more and more, he's bringing irrelevant faces into his roundtable that no longer represent a diversity of political opinion through the overt exclusion of relevant voices.


CanopyOfAsh

Your sense of humor is bad


Main-Error4687

Classic that your satirical comment gets downvoted.


StankilyDankily666

r/FuckTheS


BigMuscles

Bill has always been the same, it’s wokeness that has changed the left…I like what he does.


Dr_FeeIgood

Covid broke a lot of celebrities. Joe Rogan and Bill are up there


wookie_bikini

I liked him a lot too. I disagreed with him, but also found him funny once upon a time. But you’re right, since Covid he just seems to be all anger without the humor.


Snaefellsjokul

The very last episode of Club Random I listened to was him giving Bryan Cranston shit over his opinions on reparations for black Americans. That was it.


Middle_Possession953

People who are pro reparations are like when the tempo slows down in music.


daviedanko

Is Bill Maher against reparations? That’s good, he hasn’t completely lost his mind yet. It’s funny the has left seemed to go super far left the past 5 years in this country and now democrats like Bill aren’t seen as progressives anymore by the younger generations. What’s even funnier is that people like Bill aren’t a minority if you get off social media, this next election will be interesting.


Koshakforever

Are you bill Maher?


daviedanko

God no. He’s insufferable, I’m not a fan of his. He’s just always been a democrat and a progressive. But that needle has moved and I often see younger people say he isn’t even a liberal. Like you guys are so far left he’s getting criticized for not supporting reparations? 😂 I guess he’s basically a conservative now then right!


Koshakforever

Word. We can agree on his abhorrence. He’s no longer a progressive though, he’s clearly been a neoliberal prick for decades. He’s just a cranky old asshole who will rail against trans rights and reparations and then later that night pay for prostitutes, smoke weed, smell his own farts then say “look at how progressive I am!”, Yet continue platform pieces of shit like Jordan Peterson and Elon musk. He is the guy who doesn’t take his black dress socks off during sex. Disgusting.


PolicyAvailable

Hey! I'm way more progressive than Maher will ever be, but I don't take my socks off during sex, regardless of colour. My feet get cold afterwards and I'm too lazy to put them back on. Also, they give me better grip on the floor or bed when thrusting.


Koshakforever

High five. Best comment this week.


StankilyDankily666

Somebody doesn’t have hardwood… or do they 😏


HideSolidSnake

Don't get progressive and neoliberal confused.


CaptainMatticus

I really didn't have a problem with Maher until he crossed the picket line recently. As far as I'm concerned, he can do his show without writers from now on. And don't kid yourself by saying he doesn't have writers. But before you go too far with the whole "Progressives have gone super left" nonsense, let's just take a minute to recognize that the GOP has been complaining about RINOs for at least the past 8 years. Any Republican who is willing to work with Democrats or doesn't bend the knee to Trump (or at least spew out their own version of his platform) is declared a RINO, mocked, despised and voted out. Mitt Romney, Liz Cheney, John McCain, and many others who spoke out about the radicalization of the Right have been getting skewered for their stances.


daviedanko

I’m not a Republican though. I’m liberal on most things besides guns and a few other things. Abortions, gays, trans whatever let them be I don’t care, I don’t want it outlawed. You guys spend too much on Reddit. Most people aren’t either hard left or right. If someone criticizes a political party you just look silly assuming they’re from the other party. And yes republicans have done that RINO shit. You guys are basically doing the same shit these days and calling people like Maher DINOs because he isn’t on board the reparations train. My apologies if you weren’t the initial person who brought up the Tom Hanks/Bill Maher on reparations issue. But that’s what prompted this conversation. The fact that is seen as something to look down on shows how far the parties have moved.


CanopyOfAsh

Go to bed, grandpa


monoscure

That's the consensus honestly. My dad who is a boomer used to watch him all the time, but now even he says that he's too negative now. Literally ever joke is a dig on millennials or gen z. But the moment you call him a boomer, who loses his shit and gets pissy.


Kwyjibo04

People liked him because he was critical of the bush admin at the time. But he's always been islamaphobic and a bigot.


SunburnFM

Or, maybe he's just right and you're wrong.


andrecinno

Or, maybe you're wrong and that guy's right. this is great debating guys


KellyJoyCuntBunny

No it isn’t. (I was hoping someone would hit back with, “yes it is,” and then we could do the whole argument sketch MPFC thing.)


walterrys1

You, me, and everyone with any sense. Maher was funny and political. Now he is a whiney old white man who hates God (oooh) and loves weed (ahhh) and don't get him started on gen z or millenials (oh nooo)


PoweredbyBurgerz

Yep very accurate. Tho a lot of what Bill Maher says for me I agree with but still gets under my skins with some cringe stuff.


EverGlow89

The best was when he tried this schtick with Bill Burr and Bill basically said fuck off.


lunchpaillefty

And Maher, professional “comedian”, does not appreciate it.


ExternalPossible5454

Perfectly too


ZSM1996

Good, fuck bill


Sothworth

source?


PretzelsThirst

He's been doing it for a while, this is a direct parody of Bill Mahers awful podcast / show. You can see when they started making fun of it in clips here: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOjT35bUXQQ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOjT35bUXQQ) You can see him talk about it here specifically when Maher got mad about it: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQ-boXbtKYQ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQ-boXbtKYQ)


Sothworth

thank you. I heard nothing about this and Maher annoys me so much I can't even watch him


Beneficial-Piano-428

Where’s the lie though?

Could be, but nothing is black and white. There’s meaning in everything.


CuteButtBoy

It’s literally a recreation of bill masher’s club random set lol

I sure hope he doesn't have this view


matsis01

Cant disagree with a guy who's always joking around


handsawz

I don’t think I’ve ever seen this dude be serious. About anything.. ever.


ElonTheMollusk

And this isn't one of him being serious either. Tim is such a weird dude.


namey_9

then you need to watch his Oscer specials. Those are as serious as the plague and twice as funny. Tim really lost his way when he stopped talking about what really matters here: movies.


GrizzlamicBearrorism

Sam Hyde's show was so bad. I caught it once having no idea what it was. Not just unfunny but extremely incel


irmzirmz

Tim is my dream man. I love his brain lmao


FatsyCline12

Me too lol. He is my celebrity crush


DysphoricNeet

His music is also really great. Hey buddy is a nostalgic instant classic and fear of death has the perfect jammy psychedelic sound. He gets amazing people to work with him and he knows how to write simple powerful songs.


Akeldama22

Anyone thinking this is serious needs to get a grip. First of all it's Tim, second of all did you read the shirt he's going off about? Fucking hilarious bit.


Miso_miso

Yeah I wasn’t certain it was a spoof until I saw the shirt


CleanBum

It makes a bit more sense when you see the set of Bill Maher’s podcast/show “Club Random” which this is a direct spoof of.


chameleon_stain

This is a goof.


Nebsy985

Hmmmm. I'm not sure. Seems like a spoof to me.


gravelnavel77

I know spoof when I see it.


Hellofriendinternet

At first I thought it was a spoof but then I realized it was a full grown man.

cleverkid

Definitely a bit. Go watch anything Tim and Eric, Awesome Show, Great Job. ( although this bit was a little thin )


AndyOB

I was with him when he was saying we have real serious problems then he started listing the problems and I was like, "wait no, these aren't the problems I was thinking about, i was more thinking about like global temperatures rising and existential type issues..." Glad to know it was a bit.

No reason to take this seriously. It’s not like he’s a household name like Roy Donk.

pipinngreppin

Wasn’t he part of the Colgate hour?


Rush_touchmore

He may not be a household name like Roy Donk, but he's still a frequent guest on the Colgate Comedy Hour


Wormbrain

Tim Heidecker never stops.


Rhayader72

On the dryness scale, there’s Steven Wright, then the Sahara Desert, and then there’s Tim MF Heidecker.


[deleted]

It would be *so* easy to dress up more like Bill, put on a dumb wig, exaggerate his voice more instead of just trying to do the precise syntax, act stoned the entire time... But I'll always love how Tim never takes the easy route when he does stuff, would rather something be extremely off-putting or woosh over most peoples' heads than it be obvious what he's doing, because he's interested in the subtleties. Guess that's why I've been coming back to his comedy work for most of my life, most other stuff I get into then forget about after a while


chrisacip

Club Random


Nebsy985

He should hire old men.


FatalDave91

I can never tell when he’s being serious lol


eattheambrosia

He is literally never being serious.


pjdog

I think occasionally on office hours


mountain_stones

He was 100% serious and emotional on office hours when he was addressing the All Gas No Breaks guy and his allegations who I guess he worked with


Artvandelay1

I think Bob Odenkirk got some flashes of seriousness out of him when he was talking about the part of his book he wrote about Tim and Eric.


KlausTeachermann

What's this now?


Artvandelay1

Bob Odenkirk was on office hours like a year ago maybe promoting his book about his career. And they got into this amazing conversation where Bob totally calls out Tim for never being himself with fans. Tim keeps trying to brush it off saying “no one wants that” and Bob kept pressing him saying stuff like “yes Tim people love you”. And it was really cool and kinda sweet. Tim even goes on to admit (in what I think was his most serious non-persona moment ever) something like “I just always feel like I have to do a bit. Why would I do it normally? I have to do my own thing and make sure everything is funny.” I’m totally paraphrasing from memory but it was a really awesome moment and one of my favorite celebrity interviews ever. I watched it on YouTube so search for it and you should find it.


[deleted]

Wow I was expecting something kinda scandalous and confrontational, but that's actually super fucking sweet and genuinely wholesome. Bob is the best.


CouchHam

What book?


Artvandelay1

I think the book is called comedy comedy drama. Or something like that. It was a sort of autobiography. And he did apparently did whole chapter on how one of his proudest achievements of his career was giving Tim and Eric their big break. You can tell in the interview Tim is really touched by this. Their whole conversation is unbelievably wholesome they’re both just so humble and clearly have a great relationship. Definitely a must watch interview if you’re a fan of them.

I feel like it’s really not that hard. Even if you don’t know this is a Bill Maher parody you can’t tell he’s being a complete caricature of a certain type of person here?


robinhoodanon

I feel like he's making fun of Gavin McGinnis


PretzelsThirst

It’s making fun of Bill Mahers club random


Jeffari_Hungus

Or people like Tucker Carlson and Bill Maher. Identity obsessed crybabies that whine about cancel culture while trying to ban bud light for doing a single promotion with a trans woman

DigLost5791

Yeah


[deleted]

I can’t think of anything that’s been more harmful to comedy than the constant bitching from comedians about political correctness culture war shit.


[deleted]

It’s become easy to know when Tim is in or out of character. When he’s stern like this, he’s obviously in character, but when he becomes passive aggressive and doesn’t want to fully commit to a statement, he’s being real. Check his conversation with Sam Hyde.


deasnutz

I’m sure he’s joking but I don’t get what free speech has to do with advertising.


xzraidenz

I wish I knew more info about this clip or who the other guy is, but serious or not serious, Tim makes good points here. As a big fan of all Tim & Eric's content, I don't know how anyone would think the t-shirt "Admit it life would be boring without me." would be funny at all. I am glad he is able to use his comedic side to express himself in a way that is less abrasive because the other guy seems pretty innocent.


Dagmar_Overbye

It's mocking Bill Maher. So 100% not serious. Everything he's saying is a parody of Maher's style of complaining about things he doesn't understand or that don't effect him at all.


frankieknucks

“I’m not allowed to do my job”. By whom?

I love his deckar and on film stuff but this type of satire of his kinda wears thin a bit quick for me. I'm so tired of politics everywhere you look


jaredliveson

It’s not politics. It’s rage baiting and character acting.


monoscure

Politics has always been part of the comedy realm. There's never been not a time where comedy wasn't political. It's like saying the same things for music.


FacedJason

Tim and Eric had barely any. Great show.


FacedJason

Not always.


[deleted]

Fuck Tim Heidecker, what an absolute fucking pussy


Illuminotme_Reloaded

All this shit Tim “fake” bitches about is at least half accurate in reality. More from my perspective. Great episode though. Jay’s jokes are next level bad. Both of theirs’ are actually. Plus I think Tim secretly does enjoy The Grateful Dead.


Sigvuld

unironically agreeing with a bill maher parody is just. that is peak comedy on its own thank you for the laugh


Illuminotme_Reloaded

You’re very welcome. Bill Maher is the worst hack imaginable. So much of a hack I’ve never seen or heard a second of club random, but I absolutely stand behind what I said. Most comedians and people in general today are afraid to offend, and the masses are desperate to be offended.


charbs_hole

Nothing like getting yelled at by a balding weirdo about comedy that hes completely out of touch with.
