Show Notes
Will I ever starr getting these things out on time again? Who can say, plus I'm a father now: no one can ask anything of me ever again.
Writer and podcaster Joe Kassabian joins the show to talk about a Real Time episode that's heavy on Iran war talk, so of course the guests are 1. A former CIA agent, 2. A CNN legal correspondent, and 3. The loudest, dumbest man in sports media. I drove my parents to the airport at 3am and recorded this upon arriving home at like 4:30, and two hours prior to driving my parents I was awoken by a drainage pipe cracking and water spraying into our bedroom. I honestly think my being able to keep my energy level up until the last five minutes of this episode is pretty impressive. Also, did you know the airports are a mess right now? I just hope they aren't bothering you too much!

If you like when I am rude to the guests you're gonna love this one. I know I do, I love to mock the guests!
ANNOUNCEMENT: The show comes out on Thursdays now, and Patreon episodes come out on... the weekend. At some point. God willing. I just need the extra day for both scheduling and editing reasons.
Listen, if Fareed Zakaria was (CENSORED BY ACAST) and somehow that person sent me a recording of (CENSORED BY ACAST) and it was just every agonizing moment of (CENSORED BY ACAST) and the volume got louder every time he (CENSORED BY ACAST) I would find a way to give that person a million dollars.
Complicatedly Named Podcast Haver Tom Harrison is this week's guest, for yet another nonsensical episode of Real Time that is less "cutting edge look at current events" and more "grating conversation with your worst Aunt & Uncle who post way too much".
Okay, well, this one's REAL LATE but you know what? It was worth it, because this week I welcomed returning guest Gita Jackson, who injects more fashion talk into the episode than has ever happened before? This Real Time has annoying guest after annoying guest, from a credulous AI moron, to a center right Dem, to one of modern day's most racist guys. And then there's Bill Maher, who's kind of all three of those!
