I Hate Bill Maher
Real Time s3e1 - I Sincerely Believe Men are Literally from Mars and Women are Literally from Venus feat Meg Mackay
Is Dennis Miller a sex symbol? Do you reach a certain age and then start becoming a teen again? Are you old if you remember someone's Dad putting cards into a satellite box?

Lately, I feel like the thing that's been breaking brains has been the horrible guests booked on Real Time, but this week we've got some real old fashioned, traditional Maher induced rage. Man, what a piece of shit this guy is...

Yes, this very podcast is honoured to be the inspiration for at least half the tracks on Tommy's new (stra)mash-up album of music, smashing WAKE readings into the music of Taylor Swift, Wham!, Devo, and more, with more groan-worthy dad-joke pun titles than you could possibly handle.

Selon le calendrier traditionnel, l’été n’est pas encore officiellement là mais la chaleur estivale étouffante est déjà bel et bien une réalité pour les Taiwanais. Les espaces intérieurs climatisés représentent la solution la plus facile. Toutefois, pour s'échapper de la chaleur, la montagne constitue une solution plus saine. Il y a 150 ans, le missionnaire médecin canadien George Leslie MacKay était déjà étonné de la chaleur à Taiwan qu'il découvrait.
