I Hate Bill Maher Presents: The Samuel Langhorne Clemens Award for Excellence in Receiving the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor.
After more than three decades in the entertainment industry, where he was soft cancelled for not being afraid to tell THE TRUTH™, Bill Maher is finally being given the kind of prestigious award he has been extremely vocal about deserving: The Mark Twain Prize for American Humor. To truly celebrate this honor, I Hate Bill Maher: a Podcast About How I Hate Bill Maher is putting on a one night only special event to experience just what a wonderfully hilarious and insightful career Bill Maher has had. Comedians John Hastings, Emily Heller, and Pallavi Gunalan will join host Will Weldon to watch highlights from his long television career, read early coverage of his work, speculate on which of his fellow comics will be honoring Bill Maher at the ceremony, and perhaps even a special tribute to Bill Maher's greatest contribution to our culture, New Rules.
Will Weldon is a comedian and the host of I Hate Bill Maher. His bio feels kind of unnecessary, since it's his podcast and you're probably familiar with him.
John Hastings is a stand up comedian who has done every major comedy festival in the world. The WORLD! He's told jokes on BBC 1, BBC 3, Comedy Central, and the Comedy Network.
Emily Heller is a comedian and writer who has performed on shows like Conan, Late Night with Seth Myers, and @midnight. She has also written on the shows Barry, Search Party, and People of Earth.
Pallavi Gunalan is a comedian and writer who has written for Lovett or Leave It, performed on Dropout.tv, and opened for comics like Jay Leno, Arsenio Hall, and Todd Barry.
And if you've read all this and you're thinking "Is Bill Maher really worth hating THIS MUCH?" here are a few samples of what a nasty weirdo he is:
