Fred Durst and Billy Corgan to Host Shows on Bill Maher’s New Podcast Network
Fred Durst and Billy Corgan are set to host shows on Bill Maher’s new Club Random Studios podcast network. The Limp Bizkit singer will discuss UFOs and conspiracy theories, while the Smashing Pumpkins frontman’s focus has not been specified.
The two shows will be part of a network that also includes Maher’s flagship Club Random podcast, as well as programs hosted by former NBA player Kevin Garnett and ex-ESPN anchor Sage Steele.

Corgan and Durst both appeared on the Club Random podcast in 2023, with Maher telling Variety, “I never knew Fred or Billy [before their appearances]. But something good happens there, and I can feel like I’m best friends for life with somebody who I just talked to for an hour and a half. That’s the quality we want — a nighttime feel.”

The podcast will add to Corgan’s multimedia résumé, as it was recently announced that he will be the focus of a new reality show on The CW’s streaming app chronicling his daily duties as the owner and president of the National Wrestling Alliance, among other aspects of his life.
Amid all his new ventures, Corgan remains busy as leader of the Smashing Pumpkins, who will embark on a UK/European tour in June, and then support Green Day on a North American stadium tour beginning in late July. Tickets for the Pumpkins’ upcoming shows are available here.
Durst, meanwhile, will head out with Limp Bizkit on the band’s headlining North American “Loserville Tour” in July with support from Corey Feldman and others. Tickets to their concerts can be purchased here.
As of now, there’s no word on when the Corgan and Durst podcasts will premiere. It was also recently reported that Maher’s HBO series Real Time has been renewed for another two seasons.
