Barack Obama to Start This Week Off at Full Frontal with Samantha Bee and End It at Real Time with Bill Maher

With his appearance coming the Friday before the election on Tuesday, November 8th, Obama’s appearance on Real Time ought to be one of the most fascinating in the show’s history even beyond the fact that a sitting President is sitting down with Maher. 

So, this week, President Barack Obama’s interview with Samantha Bee will air on her show, Full Frontal, on this Monday/Halloween. The POTUS will close out the week at another firebrand, political comedy show by finally taking Bill Maher up on his open invitation and appear on Real Time. 

Few hosts as big as Maher have publicly lobbied as hard for an Obama sit down, which should make this, as suggested above, a fascinating interview. 

Watch it on Friday, November 4th on HBO at 10PM.

Barack Obama has set the highest bar of how cool a president can be (as well as in touch with the youth of today and how to reach them). He’s been on Between Two Ferns, WTF with Marc Maron, and now, he will have been on Full Frontal with Samantha Bee.

At 10:30PM on October 31st, we hope you’re sober enough and partied out enough to catch that night’s episode of Full Frontal with Samantha Bee as it will include an interview with President Barack Obama. This is definitely a milestone for the show that, remember, just started earlier this year. 

Undoubtedly, it’ll be on their YouTube page the next day if you did Halloween a little too hard.

For once, you get to see Jerry a little starstruck.

Of course, we’d all be, even if you don’t agree with President Obama’s politics. Still, chalk up another great chat, kind of like his episode of WTF, with the Commander-in-Chief that doesn’t have an agenda other than being “about nothing”.

Also, this is probably the first time that Jerry and his guest don’t go to a diner or coffee shop because, well… the POTUS has other things going on that he needs to attend to.

Watch it here.

During his administration, President Barack Obama has proven himself to be quite the comedian. He has shined every year at The White House Correspondents Dinner, did one great episode of Between Two Ferns, slow jammed the news with Jimmy Fallon, and he, just last night, has done The Colbert Report’s The Word segment as The Decree and absolutely delivered. 

Watch Obama take Colbert’s host chair for a spin, then all three parts of his interview with Stephen and you’ll see why he might be U.S. History’s funniest Commander-In-Chief.

Not only will The Colbert Report have a special episode on Mon. Dec. 8th at 11:30PM on Comedy Central by going live from Washington D.C. as well as calling the whole event “The Stephen Colbert Presents: Mr. Colbert Goes to Washington, D.C. Ya Later, Legislator: Partisan Is Such Sweet Sorrow: A Colbert Victory Lap ‘014”, but Stephen Colbert has just announced that the POTUS will be his guest. 

Indeed, President Barack Obama will sit down and chat with Colbert, which might be great timing as he could use a Colbert bump right now.

For the longest time, Warren G. Harding was a president whose name kids would memorize in order to be able to recite the names of every single U.S. president. None of his policies and his short term are remembered very much, but now that’s all changed with the discovery of some smutty letters, rich in detail, that he sent to his dear mistress.

Last Week Tonight with John Oliver investigates further and finds he even nicknamed his penis in the letters.
