Episode Synopsis

pplpod Episode 117 dives into Bert Kreischer’s larger-than-life lane—how a Florida State legend story became a touring juggernaut, a film, and a podcast empire without losing the hang. We trace the early Rolling Stone “Top Partier” spark, the shirt-off identity that stuck, and the bit that wouldn’t die (and shouldn’t): “The Machine.” Then it’s the work beneath the wild—arena-sized storytelling with precise tags, act-outs that feel like campfire dares, and a knack for turning family life into communal howl. We unpack the specials (from Comfortably Dumb to Hey Big Boy, Razzle Dazzle), the rise of Bertcast, two-hander chemistry on 2 Bears, 1 Cave with Tom Segura, fully feral tours (The Berty Boy Relapse, Fully Loaded), and the leap to movies with The Machine. Threaded through: generosity with other comics, relentless road reps, and the curious truth that discipline is what keeps the party going.
