I went to REAL TIME once and I wasn't paid. I just responded to an ad that was
offering tickets to a bunch of shows-- everything from sitcoms like BIG BANG >> THEORY to game shows like WHEEL OF FORTUNE and JEOPARDY. I picked REAL TIME >> and showed up at the directed time and place and was ushered into a room where

Yes, there was an applause sign, but I took it to be more a production thing >> than a "please agree with Bill's politics" thing. They wanted clapping in
certain places and not in others so that the audience is quiet when they need
them quiet.
