Steve-O claims he turned down an appearance on Bill Maher‘s “Club Random” podcast after Maher allegedly refused not to smoke pot during the interview. “I’m a clean and sober guy. It’s very important that I maintain my sobriety, it’s approaching 16 years,” Steve-O, born Stephen Gilchrist Glover, said on his own podcast, “Wild Ride!” “I am about to be sweet 16.
Really, there’s nothing I value more than my sobriety,” Glover, 49, continued. “There’s nothing more that I protect than my recovery.” The prankster “found it kind of upsetting” when he was told “that’s a dealbreaker” after telling Maher’s team he would appear on the show but requested the 68-year-old host abstain from smoking pot. According to Glover, he was shocked at the host’s blatant refusal, as other notorious pot smokers previously respected his wish.
“Mike Tyson’s podcast is called ‘Hotboxin,’” Glover stated. “Be real! All of these prolific potheads, I’ve been on their shows and it wasn’t so important to them to blow marijuana smoke in my face, but for Bill Maher it was a dealbreaker.”The Post reached out to Maher for comment. Since Glover made the comment, some users on X (formerly Twitter) have slammed Maher.In one clip posted to the social media site, Maher can be heard telling singer Sheryl Crow: “That’s when I need a joint … but I’d never light one up in front of you.” “When someone doesn’t respect a person’s sobriety it says a lot about them,” one user posted.
“So, between Steve-O & Bill Maher, Bill Maher is the jackass. That tracks, actually,” a second person said.“Steve-O’s worst sketch on ‘Jackass’ is funnier than the entirety of Bill Maher’s dips – – t career. The man’s a f – – king loser,” said a third person.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic Paul McCartney was the obvious headliner of the bill Thursday at the Hollywood Bowl. But it was Buffett-mania that was in full sway, as a cast of dozens of singers and celebrity presenters — from Jane Fonda to Snoop Dogg — saluted or parroted a fallen musical hero for the three-and-a-half-hour “Keep The Party Going: A Tribute to Jimmy Buffett.” Most of the night’s entertainers covered Buffett classics or obscurities, although McCartney, the Eagles and Snoop Dogg broke with that to regale the full Bowl house with their own material, while Zac Brown and (sending in a video contribution) Dave Matthews debuted brand new songs saluting Buffett.

Bill Maher, 68, on an episode of his “Club Random” podcast.Williams touched upon the idea when he mentioned legendary screen star Laurence Olivier covering his face with dark makeup for the 1965 film adaption of “Othello.”The William Shakespeare play centers around a Moor — a person of Muslim descent who lived in parts of Europe during the Middle Ages — military lieutenant who is fighting against the Ottoman Turks.“When he did ‘Othello,’ I fell out laughing,” Williams said.“He stuck his ass out and walked around because Black people are supposed to have big asses,” he continued.
