“Bullsh*t!” Bill Maher Vs Globalist Elite

12 May 2026 · 34 min · S1 E171

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with comedian and political commentator Bill Maher for a controversial conversation on Islamism, antisemitism, immigration, free speech, and the future of Western civilisation.We begin with the explosion of antisemitic attacks across Britain, Europe, and the United States, from synagogue firebombing and violent assaults to the growing atmosphere of intimidation facing Jewish communities. Maher argues that Western elites have systematically downplayed the scale of the problem, while Winston challenges the political class for refusing to confront its causes openly.The conversation then turns to Islam, mass migration, and the liberal reluctance to criticise religious extremism. Maher explains why he believes the word “Islamophobia” has been weaponised to shut down debate, while both discuss the failures of multiculturalism, the grooming gangs scandal in Britain, gender inequality under Islamist systems, and whether certain aspects of Islamic culture are fundamentally incompatible with Western liberal values.We also examine the political realignment around Israel, with Maher arguing that antisemitism has spread from the far fringes into mainstream Left and Right-wing politics alike. The discussion explores university protests, Hamas apologism, identity politics, and why support for Israel has fractured across the political spectrum.At the end, I delve deeper into the topics we discussed with Bill.
