Bill Maher Launches Podcast Network with Sage Steele and Others
The new venture aims to offer unfiltered conversations and diverse viewpoints, with a focus on freedom of expression.
- Bill Maher is expanding his Club Random podcast into a network, featuring a variety of unfiltered celebrity voices.
- Sage Steele, former ESPN anchor, will host the first show on Maher's new network, emphasizing freedom of expression and diverse viewpoints.
- The network will also feature podcasts hosted by Billy Corgan and Fred Durst, among others, covering topics from free-market libertarian views to UFOs and conspiracy theories.
- Steele's departure from ESPN followed a lawsuit settlement over comments criticizing the network's COVID-19 vaccine mandate, highlighting her desire for more freedom of expression.
- Maher's venture into podcasting aims to replicate the authentic, unfiltered conversations characteristic of his HBO show, 'Real Time', in a more casual, after-hours setting.
