Ari Emanuel | Club Random with Bill Maher

Hollywood power broker Ari Emanuel drops by Club Random, which is convenient, since he’s also Bill’s agent. As Bill points out, maybe once the book tour is over, Ari can go back to thinking about him!

Ari takes Bill from the mailroom to the boardroom, revealing the hustle, grudges, lucky breaks, and unaffordable Lakers tickets behind the rise of Endeavor. There’s the Jay Leno/Conan O’Brien shake-up, a 16-hour flight to China for a lunch that never happened, the real man behind Entourage’s Ari Gold, and a courtship strategy that sounds suspiciously like a hostile takeover.

The calls have been rolled. Now let’s hug it out, bitch.

Bill has questions. Ari has stories. Neither has an indoor voice.
Somewhere between the earthworm supplements and angry mogul aerobics, things get serious: dyslexia, loyalty, revenge, Donald Trump, Israel and Gaza and why Ari believes talking to people you disagree with still matters.

ABOUT CLUB RANDOM
In Club Random, Bill Maher unleashes his comedic wit on an unpredictable lineup – from Bill Burr and Jerry Seinfeld to Quentin Tarantino and Neil deGrasse Tyson – digging into everything but politics. It’s Maher in his familiar element: one-on-one vibes, unfiltered laughs, and the kind of freewheeling banter only he can deliver.

ABOUT BILL MAHER
Bill Maher was the host of “Politically Incorrect” (Comedy Central, ABC) from 1993-2002, and for the last 23 years on HBO’s “Real Time,” Maher’s combination of unflinching honesty and big laughs have garnered him 41 Emmy nominations. Maher won his first Emmy in 2014 as executive producer for the HBO series, “VICE.” In October of 2008, this same combination was on display in Maher’s uproarious and unprecedented swipe at organized religion, “Religulous.”

Maher has written six bestsellers: “True Story,” “Does Anybody Have a Problem with That? Politically Incorrect’s Greatest Hits,” “When You Ride Alone, You Ride with Bin Laden,” “New Rules: Polite Musings from a Timid Observer,” “The New New Rules: A Funny Look at How Everybody But Me Has Their Head Up Their Ass", and most recently "What This Comedian Said Will Shock You".
