Bill Maher Worries Kimmel Wont Speak Again

Bill Maher revealed Monday that his friendship with may be forever shattered.

During an episode of his Club Random podcast featuring Kimmel's former collaborator, 61-year-old podcaster Adam Carolla, the 70-year-old host of 's Real Time claimed that a , Molly McNeary, led the late-night host to give him the cold shoulder.

'Jimmy Kimmel, you know, he’s very mad at me and I know you’re close to him,' Maher said, referring to Carolla's stint co-hosting the Comedy Central series The Man Show with Kimmel from 1999 to 2004.

'I hope you tell him that I’m sorry that it got bent out of shape,' Maher continued. 'I don’t think I did anything wrong. We can have disagreements. I mean, you and I don’t agree on everything, look at this clash now, and yet we’re cool.'

The Daily Mail has reached out to Kimmel's representatives for comment. 

The comedian noted that he often clashes with Kimmel's politics, which are now further to the left than Maher's views, though he praised Kimmel, 58, for being 'one of the nicest guys.' 

'This is the difference between the right and the left. It bugs me so much,' Maher complained. 'My tribe is supposed to be the left, but these are the people who just can’t talk to you unless you’re exactly there, whereas the Republicans, they always f***ing come to my show.'

Maher declared that he doesn't 'just buy into the left-wing bulls***,' though he also claimed that he 'never stop[s] making fun of the right-wing bulls***' either. 

'If that’s not good enough for you, then I think you’re the a**hole, and I don’t think Jimmy is an a**hole,' Maher said.

'My tribe is supposed to be the left, but these are the people who just can’t talk to you unless you’re exactly there, whereas the Republicans, they always f***ing come to my show,' Maher said, referencing his disagreements with Kimmel and McNeary
