Podcast
The Megyn Kelly Show
Bill Maher talked about how the book mocks clickbait. He also said he redid all of the editorials for the book and worked on it during the strike last year. He said that it's a diagnosis on what's going on with us right now and picks up on something Megyn Kelly said to him about feeling without a political home. Maher feels like this is his best book, and is proud of it. He recommends people read it like the bible.
This is the tease we used on Fox News for about two decades. Without the words comedian, what you hear next will shock you. Right. Exactly. I thought I would bring it to the book world.

I think people should treat like the Bible. I think they should put it by their nightstand and read passages each night. And I think it'll help you through your life.
I think it's, I think I know, I think they thought he was the strongest candidate, the one who could sort of be the strongest leader and take Biden down. But I look at Biden, and I feel like the Democrats really could have made a switcheroo.
I mean, my first show back after the strike ended, which was last September, the first editorial I did was called Ruth Bader Biden. I was the one who coined that phrase. I was saying, if he continues on, if he doesn't get out of the race, he's going to be Ruth Bader Biden.

And watching real time. And buying this book. It's called... It's actually very, it's the funniest book ever.
