Starting point is 00:00:00 Welcome to an HBO podcast from the HBO late-night series Real Time with Bill Maugh. Please, please. It's only Thursday. How's the crowd? A hot crowd? Yeah. Well, it's Oscar fever time. Do you have Oscar fever?
Starting point is 00:00:39 Okay. That's pretty good. Well, nice weather for it. We got beautiful. Actually, a little too nice. The award season has been kind of like overly hot. Last week at the Grammys,
Starting point is 00:00:51 Lady Gaga's meat dress went bad. And this is the first time this has never happened before. The Oscars are falling on the same day as the Daytona 500. Yeah, and they're both sponsored by Coke. So that's interesting. Some great films this year. Just not ones you'd call, what's the word, popular. You know, they're the kind of words when you, the movies where you ask people,
Starting point is 00:01:20 you know, if they've seen them, they're like, Boyhood, yeah, almost, almost saw that one. A whiplash, yeah, I should see that one. I really, I meant to. Foxcatcher, yeah, I'm going to make time to, you know, the kind of movies you see in the classy theater where the usher comes out before the movie to tell you you're doing the right thing.
Starting point is 00:01:41 Welcome to the Ark Lack. Now let's get this over with. Yes, Oscar movies about artists and how they suffered for their art. And now it's your turn. Now, the other thing that, I don't know, I think it's kind of controversial. There's a goodie bag they give out to rich, spoiled movie stars that has $125,000 worth of swag.
Starting point is 00:02:05 Because, come on, show business is hard backbreaking work. It's a little, about time, these people got a little something in return for it. $125,000 they're giving way to movie stars. And it includes a $250 vibrator. I'm not kidding. Now, that's the new gift this year. Everybody's buzzing about it. It's, uh, you know, there's stuff in the bag, the trips, the accessories, the designerware.
Starting point is 00:02:33 That's all a thank you for participating in the broadcast. The vibrator is to see if they can get anyone's face to move. But, uh, just so you know the difference. A vibrator is a sex toy that runs on batteries. Ryan Seacrest is a dildo. Well, you know what? we got the movie stars out here, we got the sunshine out here, you know what else we got out here?
Starting point is 00:03:05 Disease. Yeah, first we had the measles, and, you know, that death toll is steady at zero. But now we got something really bad. There is a drug-resistant super bug called CRE. It is, to give an idea how bad it is, it is 10 times more deadly than the bug that is up John McCain's ass.
Starting point is 00:03:27 And there's been an outbreak at UCLA at the Ronald Reagan, Center. 180 people have this. And, you know, when you get this, there's nothing really they can do. It's very, very serious. First of all, I don't even like it that they named a hospital after Ronald Reagan. I don't think that's appropriate. He ignored AIDS his entire first term when it was an epidemic.
Starting point is 00:03:49 I mean, naming a hospital after Ronald Reagan, it's like naming an energy drink after Bill Cosby. I just don't think it's the right thing to do. I don't. But they say this disease is a thing. special threat to our old and vulnerable, which out here means actresses over 30. So, no, it's very dangerous.
Starting point is 00:04:14 They can hide for years, like my agent. And it's constantly mutating, like Bruce Jenner. So it's, oh, Bruce Jenner, he's in trouble. It's like more and more like Bruce Jenner. You saw that accident last week on PCH, right? Okay, it looks more and more like he was actually the cause of that accident. They say he could wind up getting prison time for manslaughter.
Starting point is 00:04:37 That would be a tricky trial. Very tricky. To find a jury of his peers, he'd up to find 12 Olympic athletes who are halfway through a sex change with a reality show based on their stepdaughter's giant ass. That would be very, very difficult.
Starting point is 00:04:55 This I never thought I'd see the day. Walmart is giving a raise to 40% of its work for it. Oh, can you spare it? Yeah, they're going to be making 10,000, an hour soon and well for them that's good and a Walmart spoken today said
Starting point is 00:05:11 we hope this goes a long way to rehabilitating our image as the number one retailer of crap made by Chinese toddlers now politically it's getting interesting Jeb Bush is currently on a nobody's listening tour and
Starting point is 00:05:31 he said his big line this week he made a speech he said I love my father I love my brother but I am my man and then announced that I'm not kidding about this he is hired more than two dozen former aids of his father and his brother Mitt Romney
Starting point is 00:05:50 had binders full of women he has binders full of old white dudes I am really worried we're going to find out that George was the smart brother thank you very much catch all new episodes of Real Time with Bill Maher
