REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER returns with a new episode on Friday, June 5, airing at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT on HBO and streaming on HBO Max. As always, Bill Maher will tackle the week’s biggest political and cultural headlines with his signature blend of commentary, interviews, and debate.
This week’s episode features a one-on-one interview with former Vice President Mike Pence. Pence joins Maher to discuss his new book, What Conservatives Believe: Rediscovering the Conservative Conscience, and the current state of conservative politics in America.
The panel discussion brings together Chris Murphy and Susan Rice. Murphy, a Democratic senator from Connecticut, recently released his new book Crisis of the Common Good: The Fight for Meaning and Connection in a Broken America. Rice previously served as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, National Security Advisor, and Director of the Domestic Policy Council.
As always, viewers can expect Maher’s opening monologue, a deep-dive interview, spirited panel discussion, and the fan-favorite “New Rules” segment that closes out the show each week.
With a former vice president, a sitting U.S. senator, and one of the most influential foreign policy voices of the last two decades joining the conversation, this week’s episode promises another lively discussion on the issues shaping America today.
Tune In: REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER airs Friday, June 5 from 10:00-11:00 p.m. ET/PT on HBO and streams on HBO Max.
