Such a DREAM! Loved doing this with you… more to come!
Best collab!!😂
Epicness🎉
Can’t wait to watch Matt on WGN in the morning again sometime in the future! 🤞🏼
You're the man, Matt!
You're so funny
I love that Matt interrupted Bill as much as Bill interrupts his other guests! well done Matt, I'm a new fan!
Best comment yet. You beat me to it
he's truly doing a bill impression lol
The Bill impression was actually so good, Bill just refused to see it 😂
Agreed
Exactly. You know they’re doing a good impression of you when it makes you cringe, and you start denying it.
too big of an ego on bill, no sense of humor
Egg 🥚 sactly
1111111111 It's funny how people (with huge ego's) can not accept anyone impersonating them.
His Bill impression was so good and Bill shut it down. I bet he was serious that he was practicing it for days. Loved this! Matt Friend is brilliant. So happy to find him from this pod.
His Trump and Howard Stern were spot on😂
Fly high Matt. Stay grounded if you can. You deserve the fame you get. You seem incredibly dedicated.
Matt quit apologizing, we WANT you doing impressions the whole time 😂
Yeah, he has a rough time with regular conversation, at least with Bill.
This guy is super talented and absolutely hysterical. Wishing him well-deserved success.
Couldn't stop laughing through this whole interview. Such a funny guy. He's got a huge future ahead of him.
I've never seen anyone absorb as much information as Matt has absorbed about the past 70 years of comedy. If this was 2030, I would assume he was AI.
I've never seen Bill laugh so much. This was a good convo. Also Matt's impression of Bill was spot on. Bill couldn't see it but it's gold.
Agreed.
Never seen Bill Maher laugh this hard for an entire episode 😂😂😂 I had many gut laughs too. That was amazing!
I came back in to watch, just to go to the Bill Maher impression, completely nailed it, and unreal, the second and third time......really really good
This episode was outstanding. I can't wait to see more of this Matt Friend. He seems truly inspired. Thanks for this one, Bill.
Best guest so far on Club Random. Handled Bill better than anyone
Sandra Berhnadt just on after she was great too❤
Watching Bill Maher and Matt Friend on Club Random was captivating. Matt's recommendation about Donald Trump's post-election future was pivotal. Bill's affirmation to ask on Real Time solidified Matt's star power. Excited to see their collaboration unfold! Bill Maher is the goat, and his relationship with Matt Friend is going to be truly next level. Giddy for the future!
LOVED the PATRICK BET DAVID impression.
When Bill said nobody would know who PBD is, I was like huh?
He really did a good PBD impression, but Bill stopped it real quick.
@@JWH66 I think "online politics" people know who he is, not so much the casual everyday American.
But Bill Maher is also "online" and that's whose watching this so I would agree with you that his thought process behind this doesn't make any sense.
That was a great impression. Bill seemed like he didn't want to give him any more attention.
Time stamp?
Fake Time with Bill Maher 🤣👏👏👏
The kid is a SUPERSTAR!!!...Fly high and go far, young man!!!
His best bet would be to get a stand-up concert on Netflix.
A good impressionist, but he doesn't really seem to be a comedian.
@@ethancole5195 Some of the best comedians first concentrated on impressions...Jim Carrey comes to mind...Give the young man time...he is very bright.
@@ethancole5195 Some of the best comedians first concentrated on impressions...Jim Carrey comes to mind...Give the young man time...he is very bright.
@@ethancole5195 his entire schtick is near-humorless word association. I know Bill isn't in the sharpest frame of mind to catch every "joke" here, but the main problem was that they just weren't funny enough to be recognisable jokes. He must have said "i'm kidding" or similar about 80 times.
His impression of Bill is good. I read somewhere people hear their own voice different with their ears the way everyone else hears it. When I heard my own voice on a recording it was way different than i thought I sound. He was on Howard Sterns show and Howard said he didn't think it sounded like him.
We hear our own voice through the inner ear
It's true. When we hear our own voice on a recording, we cringe
Wow, this guy impressions was Spot On. I Stepped away from my Tv at one point while he were impersonating Bill & actually thought it was Bill talking! 😂🤣
Matt Friend deserves an award for this interview! Not only because this was a brilliant example of his immense talents... But because he had a long talk with Bill Maher and Bill didn't once mention why he's not married and how he is anti- marriage and kids. That's a marvel!
Don't know this guy, but I am crying 4 minutes in... So good!
Don't know him? Where have you been? Under a rock? But you are absolutely right, he is awesome.
Same. Never heard of him, he’s hilarious
He would never admit it, yet there’s something paternal and fatherly about Bill when it comes to younger and up & coming comedians. This hour was genuinely funny & enjoyable, a new fan of Matt here ✋🏻
Matt's speaking voice is somewhere between Seth MacFarlane, and Bob Costas.
And Howard...
his speaking voice just reminds me of the dude from Jurassic park the guy who speaks in a way, his wife is a ballerina or something, anyway, I only saw that one and he sounds like he did in that one..
Agreed, I heard that as well. Wow.
Jeff goldblum thrown in there too...
@@5starcomment but his Goldblum isn't that good though.
Matt Friend is The Bomb. And, damn, do we need it now. He's def a part of our future. Comics, both men and women, need to be promoted, the shows, and beyond. Go, Matt. You are a treasure.
Under 35 min. in & this guy Friend is BRILLIANT‼ I'd never known of him prior, must check more of his stuff. He's a GEM. 😂
I hadn't heard of him either until he did a sponsor spot read a few episodes back, he was great at it.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 this is a great episode!!! Not comment! No words! This is great comedy folks!
This is great! Matt is extremely special. Laughed my ass off. Really humble guy.
Bill kept talking over his jokes...
Best Bill Maher impersonation I’ve seen. Funny Bill couldn’t recognize himself in sound or word. I’m a new fan of Matt Friend!
been a massive fan of this guy the last few years, insanely impressive impressions, great conversation!
LMAO he keeps getting better and better with the impression of you, Bill: "Ask Michael Jackson's Doctor." 🤣😂
Bill you are in denial. Kyle Dunnigan does an impeccable impersonation of you.
I hope he concedes to it someday.!
Nah, it was as bad as the Johnny Carson.. not that good. The others were pretty wild.
@@morbidmanmusiche’s talking about Kyle Dunnigans impression not this guy
Bill is old and out of touch that's just a fact
"I'm such an easy audience for impersonation's" as long as you don't do him!! Turns into a snowflake real quick!
Matt's Carson is absolutely nuts
Sorry Bill ,I know you think you are impossible to imitate , however, myself and many others believe Matt does a very good impression of you ! Dude is super talented especially for his young age
Dude I was listening and you could hardly tell the difference. Bills got no sense of humor about himself lol
Yes, you said it Bill, Gut laughing! Feels Divine. Your channel is part of my health regime. Laughter is a huge part of my prescription plan. Every weekend I get my dose with Real Time and Club Random. I am a total health nut. My health insurance is me being the healthiest I can be. Enjoying the cleanest foods and being out in Nature is my greatest wealth ❤
Thank you for being a part of my health plan!
Andy Kaufman: "No he's still alive." Best comment of the night and Bill totally missed it 😂
His Maher impression is spot on and Bill is too thin-skinned to admit it lmao
I thought it was just ok. His Trump impression is his best
It was right on in spirit, but way off because his voice is in the wrong range.
I like Kyle Dunnigan’s Bill Maher impersonation
Dunnigan's is perfect. Bill has a different perception of himself. He thinks he's a stud and a really charming and upbeat guy, so when he sees a smarmy and bitter impression he just doesn't think it's him.
@@thomass1891 No I think his Howard Stern impression is his best.
8:12 - Trump.
8:53 - Bill Maher.
11:16 - Howard Stern.
17:46 - Trump.
You missed 3:01 Trump
I had never heard of Matt Friend. He's great. Very quick and terrific impressions, especially trump and Howard Stern.
This was so much fun! And Bill, many times I listen to Club Random. So not having visual, just voices, I think Matt nailed you, and Howard too! Much success Matt! You're fantastic!😊
Matt Friend is so fast, so clever and knowledgeable. Mahar is smart too in his own way....knowledge based on his own experience...
Very funny show, Matt you're clearly very talented, intelligent and well versed on history and life, I offer you one suggestion, just slow down a little bit because the non stop comedic comments tend to overwhelm and create over stimulation. I look forward to seeing you continue your success.
Never say I'm sorry. When your a comedian no apologies necessary. Great show. Funny banter.
I felt the same. He shouldn't say sorry to that a-hole. Maher thinks he's the best.
Holy shit! An entire interview with Matt. Awesome.
Just when I thought that vulgarity has taken over, this kid proves me otherwise. He's really funny and smart. Keep it up! I hope you have a long and crazy successful career and I can't wait to see your special on some big platform like netflix or prime.
Sorry Bill, Kyle Dunnigan does a great impression of you.
He hates that guy lol
@@nathandrake253why?
@@animalmother5689 he hates his impression and kind of bashed him while he was on Rogan
I'd go so far as to say it's one of the best impressions ever, because it's completely stuck in my head. Any time I watch Maher I think of Dunnigan's impression. "Really? You're one of those people. You're wrong. Okaaay?" If George Clooney came on and talked like himself Bill would be like "yes! Now that's a perfect impression of me!" That's where Bill's ego is.
This is officially my favorite club random episode.
I just told a joke to my grandson in Bill Maher's voice.
Grandson: Do Jews celebrate Easter?
Me: Celebrate? No. Frankly they'd rather not discuss it.
😂😮😅😊🎉😂🎉😢😮😅😊
Absolute episode of all time, I'm glad to see things working out between you guys :)
Bill this kid rocks, thanks for having him on, I’m sure he has gained a few more fans because of you!!!
How cool was that! It’s literally an up and comer chilling with Bill - with that fly on the wall greatness. Matt Friend is so quick, so well versed and respectful to Maher, not to mention that cat Is just crazy talented in his own right.
I love how Bill can't admit this kid's impersonation of him is good. LOL.
My god…Matt Friend. To be that good so young. Sky’s the limit!
LOVE Matt Friend !!!!!
I love Matt Friend. He’s so good. I haven’t watched this show in a while but once a short popped up on my feed and I saw him, I had to stop by and watch again. He’s great.
"Cosby" was a perfect Bill Maher
He nailed it. I had to rewind, because I honestly thought that was Bill.
Great new talent, love your work.We all need a good laugh.
This is the most ADHD interview I’ve ever seen! But I love it 😂😂😂😂
Bill Maher impression was actually one of the best !
That was a good bill Maher impression, he really can't see it.
yep
Very good
It wasn't even close! He's got to get the high-end squeaky voice, to do Maher.
Attitude yes, voice not in the ballpark.
For as perceptive as he believes he is Bill has zero self awareness
Such a talent young matt. Success is the necessary misfortune of life it's only to the very misfortunate that it comes early. Touch base with bill periodically he'll let you know. Good luck mate
❤😂
Genius! First time hearing from this young man and glad I did! Thanks to Bill and Matt!
Nice to see someone with genuine talent. Impressions are so difficult to do well, and he can do so many of them. He actually does a great Bill Maher too.
26:39 omg I’ve never heard Bill laugh that hard but it is so infectious…I love when guests make him laugh ❤
To make the Bill laugh like this, what a show!
This guy is fantastic - very confident and comfortable and the best impressionist since Rich Little?
On pure talent, I might have to consider Jim Carrey and Eddie Murphy. But obviously Rich and Matt are far more committed to the form.
@@mikestevenson576 apparently Matt is 25 - let's give him a chance to develop!
@@jeffreyabelson7171 Eddie Murphy and Jim Carrey were teenagers when they broke out as impressionists. This isn't a knock on Matt, I love his whole thing. But apples to apples in terms of age, and based purely on talent, I think Carrey and Murphy have to be in the conversation.
@@mikestevenson576 no argument - both major talents
What a talented young man! Is impression of you, Bill, was a good 90% spot on!
Matt friend got a new follow from me! Never misses 💯👏🏼
I’ve never seen Bill laugh so hard
This kid is too smart and sharp for Bill. And the impression of Bill is spot on.
Matt Friend's impersonation of Trump is the most accurate I've ever heard. Within six months, I predict Friend will dial in a pretty good Maher impersonation, but it will be hard to ever top Kyle Dunnigan's impression of Maher.
Oh yeah! Great impressions, trump and Howard are the best 😁
Matt. You have the Maher impression on lock 👍
"Well, I don't see it."
Ugh, he's insufferable...
Like Bill your impressions make me so happy. I can’t believe you’re Only 25 and this talented.
And before any comments… I KNOW MY LEG IS SHOWING 😂 the chair’s slump caused it
I was scrolling for the first person to notice this. A couple extra inches on the arms and legs and you're all set lol
Bro it's all fine
Longer sock, Sir! That's the trick..all the way up to the hips.
Matt I only found you today. You are brilliant!! Hope your tour comes to the UK in future.
@@photomukund😂
Matt is brilliant 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
It's been 54 seconds. Bill hasn't mentioned he doesn't like kids yet. 😛
Or "The woke mind virus."
Or that marriage sucks…..
Bill Maher: “Nobody can do an impression of me”
*Kyle Dunnigan enters from entrance stage right*
He does Bill better than any one else.
Love this !!! Best episode so far !!!
So glad I gave this guy a shot. Truly funny
IMAGINE if Matt made a 10+hr video reading the entire Bible in all his favorite voices 😂 that would go hella viral
It’d probably take longer than 10 hours lol but I agree, that’d be epic!😂
Bill impression: Speaking of Middle East Peace, Secretary Blinken -- **clicks tongue** Let me tell you the hilarious Beatles reference I made to Gallagher in 1997, which reminds me: if so-called doctors didn't pretend to know more than they do about COVID, we'd still have Mary Ann!
the way bill does that lip smack/tongue click thing is so irritating. it comes off as really smug
This young man is HILARIOUS! Him and Bill Maher have amazing chemistry together too! 😆 🤣 😂
Can he please do the White House Correspondent’s Dinner?
@corinnewinter-rousset1650 Excellent suggestion!!!
Great idea!
A great goal for Matt’s new agent!
He did
Well, I am an instant fan. His humor is timeless and I hope to see him a lot more.
Love Matt Friend and at 25 he's confident as hell, even though he's nervous. Good mix 👍
Awesome! Best episode ever!
Best One yet!
Please do James Carville, Arnold Schwarzenegger, George W, Lindsey Graham!
He absolutely nailed Bill's voice, I was listening to this as a podcast and didn't realize it was an impression
“Like a dog!” I love it! 🤣
"Nobody does a good impression of me." - Bill Maher. He won't compliment anyone on their impressions of him even when it is really good, like Kyle Dunnigan's impression.
Bingo. He almost walked off Rogan like the baby he is just because Rogan wanted to play a clip of Dunnigan.
Don't watch if you don't like him.
@@bonniejanedrake7303 Wat? I never said I didn't like him. He just has a huge blind spot when it comes to himself.
@@jaywinger79he's lacking self awareness. I don't think he's ever been introspective. First degree, someone who would say that he's smart, what would you think?
@@pikebishop8516 Looked him up - yes, great Maher impression. But to the haters, be fair: what did you think the first time you heard your recorded voice? Hearing a good impression of yourself probably does not sound as though you hear yourself at all.
Matt does the best Trump I have ever heard. Not to mention Paul Giamatti & Howard Stern
Bill with a Pete Barbutti reference. Definitely "Random". Love it!
Yet so wrong because they'd never book a comic AND Pete Barbutti as though Pete wasn't a comic.
Super talented glad you got him on your show Bill!
Don't say sorry to him, Matt.
This is my favorite episode.
I think he was a little nervous was trying hard to impress Bill. But he is undoubtedly talented.
