Bonus Bill – Ep. #463

Charlie Sheen is an icon of decadence.

I lit the fuse and my life turns into everything it wasn't supposed to be.

He's going the distance.

He was the highest paid TV star of all time.

When it started to change, it was quick.

He kept saying, No, no, no, I'm in the hospital now, but next week I'll be ready for the show.

Now, Charlie's sober.

He's gonna tell you the truth.

How do I present this with any class?

I think we're past that, Charlie.

We're past that, yeah.

Somebody call action.

Aka Charlie Sheen, only on Netflix, September 10th.

Welcome to an HBO podcast from the HBO Late Night Series, Real Time with Bill Ma.

Thank you, Bill.

Thank you very much.

Thank you.

Well, I'm glad you're in a good mood.

We just passed the 500-day mark of the Trump administration.

I think I'm just counting the notches in my bomb shelter.

But the good news is Melania has been found.

She was not seen in public for 27 days.

You know what that means, six more weeks of trade war.

She had met a few days earlier with the Gold Star families.

You know the Gold Star who lost a person in war.

And it was a very moving ceremony.

The Gold Star families all came up to Melania and said,

our prayers and thoughts are with you.

Trump is not, you know, he does not acknowledge Gay Pride Month.

He's old school about marriage.

He believes marriage is between one man and one woman for a period of three to seven years,

except during a golf tournament.

That's what a marriage is.

So

And then, you know, here about this horrible thing that's going on at the border where we're separating children from their parents.

Okay, so a senator, Jeff Merkley, went down to one of the detention centers.

They wouldn't let him in, detention center, to see what was happening.

But you know what?

The detention center is an old Walmart.

You know, a bunch of kids with the parents nowhere in sight.

Sounds like every Walmart I've ever been in.

Where's my son?

Check Lawn and Garden.

But we voted this week here in California.

We're going to have a new governor soon.

Gavin Newsom is going to be the governor.

He's running against, I think, pretty sure about that.

He's running against a Republican named John Cox.

John Cox.

There's a name you can write on a ballot, but not on a wedding cake.

And Bill Clinton, have you seen him around this week?

He's on a book tour, not going well.

He was president for eight years, and America just wants an apology for the time he got blown.

And Clinton's out there going, come on, even OJ gets the occasional question about football.

But he should give Monica Lewinsky a direct personal apology.

I mean, her life was ruined by the affair.

Monica Lewinsky, she's kind of like the Colin Kaepernick of her day.

She suffered greatly for taking a knee.

All right, thank you very much.
