Bill Maher has no plans to step away from his career in late-night anytime soon.
The Real Time host, who turned 70 in January, opened up about his future on TV on the Monday, July 13, episode of his Club Random podcast, during a conversation with Comics Unleashed host Byron Allen.
“At 70, it’s different because now, I’ve done everything I ever wanted to do. So now I’m playing with the house money,” Maher explained. “I mean, if it all ends tomorrow, well, you know, it was a good ride.”
He said that his age, people are "basically retired," adding, "But I don’t want to retire, and nobody who was my fan wants me to."
Maher also explained that despite hitting 70, he doesn't "feel any f--king different" than he did when he was younger.
"I’m not married, I don’t have kids, I still drink and smoke pot... It’s like, when my life changes, maybe the show or my career will change," the comedian said, adding, "But until it does…"
Maher's Real Time with Bill Maher has been airing on HBO since 2003, making it the network's second-longest-running series after Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel, which ended in 2023 after its 29th season. Real Time, which is currently airing its 24th season, has been renewed through 2028.
Maher told Allen that he's still having a great time filming his late-night show. "There is not a time I am standing right backstage before the show starts when I don’t think to myself, enjoy this, because this is kind of what you live for," he admitted. "This is as much fun as you’re going to have with your pants on ever."
While the show will eventually come to an end, Maher said he can't know which will be his last, which is why "you have to enjoy it" every time.
