Bill Maher

Bill Maher, setting new boundaries for funny, political talk on American television, brings his sharp, sometimes caustic, take on the world to Cobb Energy.  His first show, "Politically Incorrect" rand from 1993 to 2002 and for the last seven years, he's been on HBO’s "Real Time."  Maher’s combination of unflinching honesty and big laughs have garnered him twenty-one Emmy nominations.   In October of 2008, this same combination was on display in Maher’s uproarious and unprecedented swipe at organized religion, “Religulous,” which has gone on to become the 7th Highest Grossing Documentary ever.

In addition to his television program, Maher has written four bestsellers: "True Story," "Does Anybody Have a Problem with That? Politically Incorrect’s Greatest Hits," “When You Ride Alone, You Ride with Bin Laden" and most recently, "New Rules: Polite Musings from a Timid Observer."
