Thank you.
Bert Kreischer
You excited?
Ari Shafir
I'm pretty excited, yeah.
Tom Segura
When did you shoot this one?
Ari Shafir
April. DC and dc, End of April.
Bert Kreischer
I'm always curious, as a self destructive comic, what are your intentions for this special? As someone who doesn't care about making money, touring, keeping ticket prices low, and kind of likes to blow up their own career, what are you hoping comes out of this special?
Ari Shafir
Good question.
Bert Kreischer
Like, what do you want? Do you want like Bradley Cooper to call you and be like, you're so talented?
Ari Shafir
No, no, that's not what I think. That would be bad.
Bert Kreischer
Okay.
Ari Shafir
Hey, it's Brad. You get a phone call one day. It's Brad.
Bert Kreischer
Which he FaceTimes. He FaceTimes.
Ari Shafir
He just FaceTimes. What a geezer.
Bert Kreischer
Oh, he's awesome.
Ari Shafir
That's my mom does.
Bert Kreischer
That's what I do.
Ari Shafir
FaceTimes.
Bert Kreischer
That's what Shaq does. He does FaceTime, FaceTime, everyone.
Ari Shafir
If I was Shaq, I would just FaceTime straight to Dick all the time.
Tom Segura
Wow.
Ari Shafir
How could you not?
Tom Segura
It's such a bold move. I know.
Bert Kreischer
He FaceTime you taking a shit?
Tom Segura
One time he was taking a. Yeah. What I would love to see.
Bert Kreischer
And I was on stage.
Ari Shafir
How big are his dumps?
Tom Segura
That's what I'm saying. I want to see that bowl.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah, I got videos.
Tom Segura
Shits. You don't have a video of his?
Bert Kreischer
I almost certain I do go to his.
Tom Segura
So he showed you the bowl?
Bert Kreischer
No, hold on.
Ari Shafir
You went in there afterwards? Just kind of sniffed around.
Tom Segura
Doesn't have a auto flusher.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah, but think about how big. How big? No, I just help. You ever sit in a toilet and your dick hits the bowl?
Tom Segura
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
I mean, hey, he's got to get extra big toilets.
Tom Segura
The volume. I took a shit at his house and I was thinking about that. I was like, oh man, this is where he shits.
Ari Shafir
Because also it must be. We went to the Philadelphia whatever. Like all their, like the 76ers. All the toilets, like way higher. The urinals start here?
Tom Segura
Yeah, sure. Yeah, yeah. Short is six, five. Right, right.
Bert Kreischer
So I'm going to take a.
Tom Segura
He's going to take a. Okay. And wait, you. You have the aftermath.
Ari Shafir
He's farting his way in. Oh.
Tom Segura
No. There. I would love A count on how many times. Like, if there was a running life, count how many times he's hit his head on a doorway. Like, it's probably in the thousands, right? Where he's just like. Like, fuck. Because everyone's experienced it, but it's a daily occurrence for him. Nothing is made for that man, ever.
Bert Kreischer
Nothing. Toothbrushes. His teeth are bigger like a toothbrush. He's got to go.
Tom Segura
Like, he said that for a water bottle. When I sat down with him, I was like, what's up? He's like, these fucking little things. It was a regular water bottle, and he just squeezes it.
Bert Kreischer
Have you seen the special?
Ari Shafir
Shack has a special now. Come on. Netflix.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah, it's called Shaq. No, it's. It's on the Magic penny Hardway. And Shaq, when you see Shaq at 22, buddy that he is, I mean, undeniable, because he was lean and powerful, 300 pounds.
Tom Segura
He was 285 when he got in the league, and he was LSU. And he. Yeah, and he ran. He would run the. Remember, he would, like, sometimes take the ball up himself. They would just dish it, and he would run up the court. The way he would move.
Bert Kreischer
I asked him. I asked him when I was dating a girl who lived in Orlando on the same lake Shaq did and in college. And, you know, like, you know, white men or some older white men at that time would just be like, man, Shaq's a wild man. You know what he does? They take their jet skis and they run them from the lake into his pool. And I wanted to know if that was real. Jack goes, yeah, we did that. He would take his jet ski, go as fast as they could on the lake, and then get on the grass and try to get it all the way up to the pool.
Tom Segura
Sounds right.
Bert Kreischer
And you're looking at just dentists going, what the fuck?
Ari Shafir
My favorite with him was. Was in Jackass. And he starts with, like. He's holding Wee man, but you can't see him. It's just here to here. He goes, I'm skilling eel. This is bowling for whatever. And then it pans out. He's got Wee man. And then all of them are lined up. 1, 2, 3, and 4. And he just throws we man at all of them. But my favorite, he's doing some setup shot, and somebody comes with a water balloon and hits him. And he's like. It's like that. And he just, like, looks at the camera guy. He goes, was that piss? Camera Goes, yeah. He goes. And then Just takes off after this guy.
Bert Kreischer
Have you seen. Have you seen the video of Philip Seymour Hoffman falling off a V?
Tom Segura
No.
Bert Kreischer
Do you type in Philip Seymour Hoffman commercial? Guitar fall. It is. I saw it this morning and I was like, what? It's a real. Yeah, that's it. That's it. This is insane.
Ari Shafir
Did his own stunts. Phillips.
Bert Kreischer
Dude, this.
Tom Segura
This is from a commercial.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah, I think so. Watch this.

Bert Kreischer

Bert Kreischer
Or someone that is using heroin.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah.
Ari Shafir
I don't feel anything.
Bert Kreischer
That's a legit fault.
Tom Segura
That definitely sucked, man.
Bert Kreischer
I'm sorry.
Ari Shafir
Second bounce. And then it was like, now it's trouble.
Bert Kreischer
I saw it this morning and I was like, that's.
Ari Shafir
That.
Bert Kreischer
You got to go to the hospital.
Tom Segura
Definitely sucks. Were you searching?
Bert Kreischer
It just came up. All that's in my feed right now. All that's in my feed is Shane Gillis clips. The Ovon clips.
Ari Shafir
Got the Shane Gillis ones. Come non stop.
Bert Kreischer
Non stop.
Tom Segura

Bert Kreischer
Rihanna Chicken Fry. You know, are you familiar with the Biana Chicken Fried.
Ari Shafir
Say her name.
Bert Kreischer
Brianna Chicken Fried.
Ari Shafir
Say your name.
Bert Kreischer
Am I saying it wrong?
Tom Segura
Say it again.
Bert Kreischer
Brianna Chicken Fried.
Tom Segura
Yeah, you're saying it wrong.
Bert Kreischer
Well, you say it.
Tom Segura
Brianna Chicken Fry.
Bert Kreischer
Huh?
Ari Shafir
I'm talking about Breonna Taylor.
Bert Kreischer
Who the fuck are you talking about?
Ari Shafir
Say her name.
Bert Kreischer
I feel like. I feel like. Brianna Chicken Fried.
Tom Segura
Why do you keep saying.
Bert Kreischer
Who the fuck are you talking. I don't even think you know who I'm talking about.
Tom Segura
I know exactly who you're talking about. Brianna Chicken Fry.
Bert Kreischer
Who is she dating?
Tom Segura
She was dating that country singer. What's his name? I forgot his name right now.
Bert Kreischer
Zach Bryant.
Tom Segura
Zach Bryant. Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah.
Tom Segura
Why do you keep saying her name wrong?
Ari Shafir
She's a lunar.
Bert Kreischer
I'm not saying her name wrong.
Tom Segura
You are. You keep saying it wrong.
Bert Kreischer
He just typed it in. Beyond a chicken fried. Where you keep saying chicken fry.
Tom Segura
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Bert Kreischer
Fry.
Ari Shafir
You said chicken fried.
Tom Segura
Yeah. You said fried every time.
Bert Kreischer
Oh, I know. Okay. What it Said. Which is it? I mean, we're really splitting hairs over a fucking name. Make believe me.
Ari Shafir
I mean, it's a good point. That's a good point. It's not a real name.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah. Bri. Bri LaPaglia.
Ari Shafir
Who is she?
Bert Kreischer
She is. She had a podcast with Grace O'Malley.
Ari Shafir
Okay.
Bert Kreischer
And I guess Zach Brian, who's hotter?
Tom Segura
She used to hang out at the store. Did she go to the store?
Ari Shafir
No. Really? I mean, she was a lot of attention.
Tom Segura
Maybe I'm thinking of somebody else.
Bert Kreischer
Here's the deal. Do you know any of the gossip? Because I want to run it all by you and see what you think.
Ari Shafir
Run it by me. I don't.
Bert Kreischer
So, Zach Brian, I'm gonna. I'm gonna jump in, throw my two cents in.
Ari Shafir
Okay.
Bert Kreischer
He's getting rid of you.
Ari Shafir
Talk about 2 cents. I'm all ears.
Tom Segura
Okay.
Ari Shafir
Is there any way I get you up to three?
Tom Segura
Those two cents really add up, right? Two here, two there, two everywhere. All of a sudden you got 10 cents. Go ahead.
Bert Kreischer
That's.
Ari Shafir
Now the government's working for you.
Bert Kreischer
You do that all the time. That's so great. So, Zach Brian. Zach Bryan. I don't know how to say his last name.
Ari Shafir
I don't know if it's Brian or Bryant.
Bert Kreischer
It's one of the two. Zachary and her. He, apparently. This is my two cents for everything. He got famous. He doesn't have any real friends. Starts dating this chick.
Ari Shafir
Out of his league.
Bert Kreischer
Out of his league. Doesn't deserve her in real life. She'd never date him.
Ari Shafir
Yep.
Bert Kreischer
I think she said she was in love with him. I don't think she had. I don't think she really compartmentalized how much the fame and doing arenas and dating the guy standing in front of the arena mattered into that. That's just my opinion.
Ari Shafir
She was already a public figure before they started dating.
Bert Kreischer
No. I mean, she was. She had a podcast, but she wasn't who she is today. Trouble. Yeah. And so. But apparently he just gets famous and he can't control it. He doesn't know how to deal with it. And. And he just is a pretty bad boyfriend to her. And from what everyone says. Here's the weird part is that anytime he acts up, her friends are around, they always record him.
Ari Shafir
Oh.
Tom Segura
Yeah. It's pretty rough.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah. And there's how bad of a boyfriend he was. He's. He gets drunk, and while she's sleeping, he just starts recording her and waking her up and going, how you like that, huh? Yeah. So it's Not. It's not the relationship.
Ari Shafir
It's also not gonna catch her or anything. What's she gonna catch Doing.
Bert Kreischer
The relationship was doomed. Hot chick, ugly guy, lots of money, can't trust anyone.
Tom Segura
He's a star.
Bert Kreischer
He's a star. And he's a really talented and he's good. But I'm.
Ari Shafir
The dynamic is way off. Because guitar, he's doing anything. She.
Bert Kreischer
No, he's.
Tom Segura
He's changing her tires. It looks like a guy that would fill up the tires at the shop. And then she'd be like, thank you. And that would be the highlight of his day. You see that chick pull him. And I filled up her tires, bro.
Ari Shafir
Tell us about what she smelled like.
Tom Segura
Yeah, exactly. That would be the full story.
Bert Kreischer
She is absolutely beautiful. She really is. And he's, you know, I. I just don't see if he's not a country western star. Him getting her.
Ari Shafir
He doesn't look country. Also, it was like Michael Buble type of music.
Bert Kreischer
He is. He's country. He is. He's really talented.
Ari Shafir
Is that. We're all fishing.
Bert Kreischer
Anyway. Anyway, they break up, okay? He says, Yo, $12 million. Let's never talk about this relationship again.
Ari Shafir
Wait, wait, wait. He just gave her $12 million?
Bert Kreischer
You gotta sign an NDA.
Ari Shafir
Why? She's already recorded everything.
Bert Kreischer
Wow. How much money does he make?
Tom Segura
The tour grows 199 million.
Bert Kreischer
Wow. That's a lot. Zach.
Tom Segura
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
I take everything I said back about him.
Ari Shafir
I think he's right behind Bad Bone.
Bert Kreischer
Good looking and talented. I'm a big fan.
Ari Shafir
Coldplay is too.
Bert Kreischer
He is. Hang on. Okay, this is the one part where I think Brianna got confused with emotions and loving a person as opposed to what it's like hanging out with number eight on the worldwide top touring artist list. When you hang out with number eight, you always fly private. You always have meals prepared. You have people getting you anything you want. Life is different. That is a 1% motherfucker. And she got a taste of what it's like to be with the 1 percenters and she liked it.
Ari Shafir
All you gotta do is not stir the pot. And that's one thing she couldn't do.
Bert Kreischer
No, no, no. He broke up with her. He broke up with her because I think he's just. Dude. I think he doesn't understand how fucking would have mind fucked. Being number eight on this list is for him. He's trying to be a real dude. And there's no way you can be real when you're number eight. That's just impossible. Bad Bunny is in front of him. The guy changed his name to Bad Bunny.
Tom Segura
Yeah, well, no one on the list is a reasonable person. Not one. They're all out of their minds because that's what. Yeah, and I think he's full of too. You know, Madonna's crazy, Metallica guys. It's a spectrum.
Bert Kreischer
But yeah, Brianna needs to realize she's hanging out with a young Madonna.
Tom Segura
Yeah, yeah, exactly, a young Madonna.
Ari Shafir
No one knows who Luis Miguel is. No one of us have ever heard of that name before. He's fourth in the world.
Tom Segura
This is how his life is. He will go perform and I'm saying, soaking, soaking, sweating. Take that shirt off, throw it. And the women will take it and drink the water from his sweat.
Bert Kreischer
Fucking for real.
Tom Segura
Yeah, dude. What do you think that does to your head? Yeah, he's not a well adjusted guy. There's no fucking way. Playoffs. We're talking about playoffs. You bet we are.

Ari Shafir
That seems plenty.
Bert Kreischer
All right. She doesn't take it.
Ari Shafir
She doesn't take it. She can get more.
Bert Kreischer
No.
Ari Shafir
On the market.
Bert Kreischer
No, no. She says, my silence is invaluable. I need to tell my story. And so she goes, she's like, this.
Tom Segura
Is going to get some downloads because I'm a podcast.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah. And you know, Portnoy was like, you should come on my podcast and talk about it.
Tom Segura
So hers podcast had to be pretty big, right?
Bert Kreischer
She had one with Grace, was a good podcast. It was a really cool podcast.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
And then she has one with. With Dave Portnoy and Josh and all.
Ari Shafir
The time or just an episode all the time.
Bert Kreischer
It's called bff.
Ari Shafir
Why she call herself Chicken Fry?
Bert Kreischer
I think it's. I don't know. It's not from him. Like, I think he's before. It's before. Yeah.
Tom Segura
It's just a nickname.
Bert Kreischer
But Dave's like, you know, Dave's like, burn the bridges. Tell your father.
Ari Shafir
I don't know Zach Brian. Go.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah. Yeah. Oh, no. Dave knows Zach Brian and does not like him.
Ari Shafir
Oh.
Bert Kreischer
Oh, Zach Brian kicked his dog out of a green room.
Tom Segura
Well, here's the origin. She compared her leg once to a Burger King chicken fry.
Ari Shafir
Okay. Just needle dick first Observation. This chick fucking sucks. No.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah. No, this chick sucks.
Ari Shafir
No.
Bert Kreischer
You'd fucking fall in love with her. She's funny.
Ari Shafir
She's only funny if you look at her face on paper. This chick sucks.
Bert Kreischer
She.
Ari Shafir
Oh. Oh, my. My leg is like a fry from McDonald's.
Bert Kreischer
From Burger.
Ari Shafir
Everyone will say that now. God, hot chicks will make you think they're funny when they are not.
Tom Segura
That. That is a true thing. Yes, that's true.
Ari Shafir
When you're like. If you put them in a fat guy's body, they're just annoying. Same joke.
Bert Kreischer
Let me try it. Come on.
Ari Shafir
Egg.
Tom Segura
Chicken fry.
Bert Kreischer
David, chicken fry, man. David. Burnt chicken fry. She's. She's not that bad, but what do you think? And then now her and Grace are having a falling out, so Grace.
Ari Shafir
Because she sucks.
Tom Segura
Wait, why are they having a falling out?
Bert Kreischer
Because I just partied with Grace.
Ari Shafir
Grace fucking Zach Bryan now.
Bert Kreischer
No, Grace sniffed it out day one. She's like, this guy fucking sucks. You got to hear. Wait, Grace, why are they.
Tom Segura
Why are they having a.
Ari Shafir
Because she didn't listen to it?
Bert Kreischer
No, because I think. I don't know why they had a falling out. But now they broke up their podcast. Grace went out and doing stand up show putting for Whitney, and she went out.
Ari Shafir
Wait, wait, wait.
Bert Kreischer
I love.
Ari Shafir
Okay, go ahead.
Tom Segura
You needed to just process that.
Ari Shafir
Yeah. Okay, she's doing stand up now. Immediately jumps to theater tours. Okay, go ahead. I love these people that are like, I worked hard. I practiced for over seven months to get where I'm at.
Bert Kreischer
Grace, Grace and Briana together.
Ari Shafir
Have any of these bitches done a year of featuring on the road to hopefully turn ten into headline gig?
Bert Kreischer
I can't tell you that. I don't know the answer to that. I don't know the answer to that. But I like them together. I like them separate. I kind of like Zach Bryan's music. My question is, is, is it worth the 12 million? Do you sign it? Shut your mouth. Never say a fucking word.
Tom Segura
Her circumstances come into play in that decision. There's the integrity of, like, my silence. But it's also like, you know, if she was, you know, working at Burger King, serving chicken fries and someone's like, Here's $12 million. You probably would probably. I'm saying she's probably in a good position to be able to do that.
Bert Kreischer
How much do you think she makes on a podcast?
Tom Segura
No fucking idea.
Ari Shafir
Two million a year, tops.
Tom Segura
I don't know. I don't know. I've never heard enough where it didn't sway her to Jump on it. So, yeah.
Ari Shafir
Yeah. If you offer Rogan $12 million, he was like, oh, here's you. I'll give it to you.
Bert Kreischer
Can I tell you? Here's. Here's what. Here's what bothered me in this whole thing.
Ari Shafir
Okay.
Bert Kreischer
Is I. I listen to her podcast where she talks about what it was like dating Zach. She opens up, she kind of slams him pretty aggressively.
Ari Shafir
We used to film him and he'd get weird about it.
Bert Kreischer
No, she didn't.
Ari Shafir
What was her problem?
Bert Kreischer
He just. He wasn't a good boyfriend. And you have those. But here you go. I've sold my silence for nothing before. There's people that we had bad issues with that we sold for nothing.
Ari Shafir
We just don't talk. Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
And now the other part is that she opened up everything, and I was like, it's better not to talk sometimes.
Ari Shafir
How bad do you want sometimes for just someone to hack your phone and release it? Like, I didn't put it out and all the darkest shit.
Bert Kreischer
So just go.
Tom Segura
You more than anybody.
Bert Kreischer
I feel like I am so fucking vindictive.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
I am so fucking vengeful. I have. It's so hard for me to. To forgive and forget because it's like, you know why? And you know this. And you know this is that I get put in a situation where they. And this is why I identify with her, where I get taken advantage of and put in a weird compromising situation. And they just go, fuck him. Fuck him. He'll. What's he gonna do? And you just. And you just go. Because I'm a nice guy. You think I'm weak? Fucking. And so this whole thing kind of fucking bothered me because part of me was like, don't take the money and don't say a fucking word.
Tom Segura
I didn't realize you were this invested in this. That's probably the biggest surprise of this whole thing.
Ari Shafir
So why was she. Why was he a bad boyfriend?
Bert Kreischer
Well, he did more stuff, I'm sure. You know, like, he just said mean things and he. You know, like verbal stuff, I think. I don't know. I don't really.
Tom Segura
Yeah, those are just.
Bert Kreischer
He's.
Tom Segura
Maybe could have maybe possibly, I don't know, maybe hit.
Bert Kreischer
I don't know. It's like. It's like, how. I mean, okay. The worst girlfriend you ever had.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
If she did a tell all podcast, just fucking wouldn't be great. I mean, I got a girl. I have a girlfriend. It's just if her friends did a podcast about me, I mean. Oh, man. It's like the worst.
Ari Shafir
He'd always finish her food before she was done eating it. I love you guys.
Tom Segura
That's the number one complaint. I haven't eaten in years.
Ari Shafir
I was like, let me be done first, though.
Bert Kreischer
I put salt on Leanne's food the other day.
Ari Shafir
You salt on it?
Tom Segura
On her, because you're gonna eat it?
Bert Kreischer
Because I was gonna eat it. And I was like, those aren't. Hang on, let's get that. She was like, what are you doing? I said, I'm salting your food. Not salty enough. No, I. I just. I think that was the. The thing that was like, I've sold my silence for zero.
Ari Shafir
Yeah. 12 million, though.
Tom Segura
Nobody's a lot of money.
Bert Kreischer
12 million.
Ari Shafir
I. I. 3 or 400,000.
Tom Segura
The other thing that's relevant is that, you know, we live in this world now. Everything is like public consumption. But, like, a relationship's supposed to be private. And so for someone to go like, hey, how about the thing that was between us that sucked? You don't talk about. And you're like, I don't know. Unless you go, like, I have to relay this story. Well, if you're relaying, like, like you said, like, being hit or something, like, like real abuse, like, I understand, but if you're just like, yeah, he just sucked, like, why do you have to. Why do you have to tell everybody.
Ari Shafir
Who'S the next guy to date her? Like, I could. No, you can't. You got to be on your best every time.
Tom Segura
Well, every time you start arguing, you'd be like, is your phone recording this? Yeah.
Ari Shafir
Like, the best is the. Is the Mel Gibson argument with his chicken.
Tom Segura
Yeah.
Ari Shafir
When she knows she's recording it, he doesn't. And she's being overly calm.
Tom Segura
Yeah.
Ari Shafir
And that's just making him more enraged.
Tom Segura
Of course.
Ari Shafir
He's like, what's wrong with you?
Tom Segura
He's like, you should blow me.
Ari Shafir
You shouldn't talk like that.
Tom Segura
Yeah. Wait, so this is your first. I wanted to point out, this is your welcome back to Netflix, too.

Right.
Ari Shafir
Weren't you back at 2017?

Tom Segura
That's great.

Ari Shafir
I don't know. I got to ask my. My Jews about that. I don't know. I don't know. I think it might be up to me. What would you do? Would you take it off and, like, guide people to Netflix or keep it? Both.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah, take it off.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.

Tom Segura
Wait, what?
Bert Kreischer
Andrew Schultz. Kendrick Lamar. Oh.
Tom Segura
Oh, Jesus Christ.
Ari Shafir
What a dumb argument that was.
Bert Kreischer
Okay.
Ari Shafir
It was based on nothing. It wasn't even like, like, don't talk about black chicks. I don't know. Andrew's just, like, funny about it, and then Kendrick's like a baby.
Tom Segura
Did he respond Kendrick to. To Schultz's response?
Ari Shafir
Because fans did.
Tom Segura
Oh, the fans definitely did.
Ari Shafir
Yeah. They're not like, the smartest.
Bert Kreischer
You've had those guys come after you before.
Ari Shafir
God, it's so dumb. They're so dumb. The dumbest of those are so dumb. Yeah. So, yeah, yeah, they've come out three pretty hard, but it's like they just get mad about disrespect on a level like, I don't know what you're talking about.
Tom Segura
There's this new thing, too, that people do that is in this world where if somebody goes, like, if they would fall, find that story, they see a video and somebody goes, wait, what is like, what's the story here? One of a fan will always go, this is none of your business. Like, stay out of. Stay out of other people's business. And you're like, what? This is a fucking. It's a public platform. People are like, it doesn't involve you.
Ari Shafir
And you're like, I'm not on the street. Yeah.
Tom Segura
This is just. I want to know what the story is here. And they're like, not for you. Okay. Oh, okay.

Ari Shafir
About what, spelling?
Bert Kreischer
No, no, no. It was V Day gifts for the hood with a hashtag.
Tom Segura
Oh, you got involved in it.
Bert Kreischer
And I. And I saw it, and I was reading it, and it was like, just. It was like. It was really racist, but it was like. It was black people making the racist jokes. Get her another baby. You know, she already got 10 of them or whatever. And then. So for. I put in. I just Google searched great Valentine's Day gifts and then just put one in. I was like, how about a classy pen? And they fucking went off. They're like, stay out of this, white boy. This ain't for you. Mind your own business. And then I went, okay. How about anything Dungeons and Dragons, son? And they were like, white boy on it. Yeah. And. And then. And I thought it was funny, but then you start getting, like. You start getting death threats.
Ari Shafir
It's trolling. It's so fun.
Tom Segura
Trolling. It's so fun.
Ari Shafir
And then you're getting a rise out of them, and then the rise goes a little bit too far after your mom.
Bert Kreischer
I got into it with Korea, too, one time. The whole country. I thought the joke was funny.
Ari Shafir
Is that another black chick?
Bert Kreischer
Korean Twitter. Korean Twitter. It's. And I said, korean Twitter. I said, how narcissistic for Kim Jong Un to name all his children after himself. He's got Kim Jong Il. Kim Jong. It was just a joke, right? It was like. I thought it was.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
And I. And then, man. I mean, it was right around Asian Hate month. Yeah. And it was Asian Hate month or whatever it is. Remember?
Tom Segura
Whenever you mean stop Asian hate.
Bert Kreischer
Yes. Oh, maybe it was my hashtag.
Tom Segura
It's their month.
Ari Shafir
Did they explain you that Kim Jong is actually the last name? They just reverse it.
Bert Kreischer
I knew that that was the joke.
Tom Segura
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
I was like, ah, I got it.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
And they were like, this is what's wrong with racist white people. And I was like that. I was like, okay. I just deleted it quick. So I was like, these not worth it. Yeah.
Tom Segura
I got lectured.
Ari Shafir
Lectured is such a great.
Tom Segura
Such a great thing to have, because I had a. A visceral response to the Will Smith slapping Chris Rock thing.
Ari Shafir
Yeah. You were mad. You're worked up. We're all pretty worked up.
Tom Segura
I was worked up. And then I ended up. I let it out online, but then I let it out in interviews. And, like, I think when I. When I let out online, I was also Like, I guess I was typing things out and. And, you know, I just wasn't. I was like, this, like, talking about the wife and like. And also. And people were doing the same thing to me where they were like, this.
Ari Shafir
Stay out of.
Tom Segura
This ain't your business, man. Stay out of black folk business. And I was like, yeah, that's not what this is. Like, this happened on stage, and this is a comedian that got hit.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Tom Segura
Like saying something it's not. And they're like, let them handle this. I was like, no, I could weigh in on this if I want to. But then I was in New York that week, and I'm walking down the street and this black dude just walks by me and he goes. And I was like, oh, this is this. This is like, the residual effect. I was like, oh, now I have to, like, keep my head on a swivel.
Ari Shafir
But they were into it.
Tom Segura
They were into it. Yeah, yeah, but they were. But then it just became like, it. It started as, like, a emotional reaction, and then I started trolling.
Ari Shafir
Right.
Tom Segura
Because it was like, they're right there.
Ari Shafir
They're presenting themselves.
Bert Kreischer
Yes.
Tom Segura
It just took off on it. Yeah.
Ari Shafir
Oh, it's the best.
Tom Segura
It's fun, though. You're the. You find more joy in that.
Ari Shafir
Just get a rise out of people. It's just so fun to deal with. Just like, it rises.
Bert Kreischer
It's fun to throw a grenade into a room, shut the door and walk away and go, I don't care what happens.
Ari Shafir
Yeah, let's see them all fight.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah. I mean, I'm not good at it. I stay offline. Really. Kind of hunt entirely.
Ari Shafir
Here's one for the fans. If you want to. Any comedian you meet. Yeah. If you want to with them, all you got to say is, oh, dude, I love your. You're my second favorite comedian.
Tom Segura
Yeah.
Ari Shafir
If you say you're. You're one of my favorites, they'll take that second favorite. They will all ask who it is, who, who's number one, and then hit them with anything you want, but just see how they react.
Tom Segura
Yeah. Or the other one that gets comedians to go like, wait, what is. If you go. You know who you remind me of?
Ari Shafir
Oh, no.
Tom Segura
And then they'll be like, cuz. Although all that comedians will do is think of, like, whoever the five best comedians are.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Tom Segura
And they'll be like, one of them. Right.
Ari Shafir
Bruce Pryor.
Tom Segura
And as soon as you say somebody who isn't, they're like, wait, what? Like, you reminded me of who? And that will get any comic fired up. You remind me of. And then just say anybody. Anybody who's not one of the elite five.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Tom Segura
Always gets a reaction. By the way, can you do. Because you were doing a really awesome impression before we started.
Ari Shafir
Oh, yeah?
Bert Kreischer
Of who?
Tom Segura
Of Winston Churchill.
Ari Shafir
Great world leader.
Bert Kreischer
Yes. Yeah. Let me do it.
Ari Shafir
Let's do it. Yeah. Get your glasses on. You might want to turn around and come back. I think that's. That's. That's usually how it works.
Bert Kreischer
I write down great Winston Churchill quotes and then I say them to myself. All wayward steps are planted without too much calculation.
Tom Segura
But that. It's not a British accent.
Ari Shafir
It goes in and out. Ah, wayward.
Bert Kreischer
Oh, wayward.
Ari Shafir
It sounds like John F. Kennedy. A little.
Bert Kreischer
This is what Winston Churchill sound. I could use a drink. Look at how that's. How good that impression is. I want a drink now. I could use a glass of champagne. Gertrude.
Tom Segura
But it sounds like old timey Americana.
Ari Shafir
Drew JFK now.
Bert Kreischer
Ah. For school and seven years ago.
Ari Shafir
Why did you give him Lincoln? Oh, why should you give him Lincoln's words?
Bert Kreischer
Everyone join the Peace Corps.
Ari Shafir
That's the same as your Winston Church.
Bert Kreischer
No, it's very different.
Ari Shafir
Definitely not very different. Even you would have not. Not very.
Tom Segura
It just sounds.
Bert Kreischer
This is jfk. This is Winston Churchill.
Tom Segura
It sounds like. It sounds like the 1920s.
Ari Shafir
You just went louder.
Bert Kreischer
No, no. I've been watching this Winston Churchill documentary. I got him down pat. He talks like this.
Tom Segura
Wouldn't it be like wayward steps? Like what? Like, would you throw some.
Bert Kreischer
Do some. Let me hear a little bit of yours.
Tom Segura
Let me see the quote or the quote up.
Bert Kreischer
So you got to kind of improv it.
Tom Segura
Oh, sure. Just like some guidance. Okay. Our wayward steps are planted without. Best planted with that. What the kind of quote is this?
Bert Kreischer
I don't know. I it up without too much calculation. I mean, he doesn't talk like this.
Tom Segura
But at least an accent.
Bert Kreischer
It's in Churchill.
Ari Shafir
Some accent would go.
Tom Segura
Oh, it might like.
Ari Shafir
He's not. Oh, wait, what's.
Bert Kreischer
What I'm doing is I'm playing chords with a little bit of finger picking. And you're thinking it's just chords.
Tom Segura
Yeah. You gotta get your ears checked, bro.
Ari Shafir
Yeah, it's the accent. You don't hit. That's what you got to listen for.
Bert Kreischer
Is this why we don't do sober October anymore? Maybe because I'm not good at accents?
Tom Segura
No.
Ari Shafir
Yeah. That's what. Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
All right. As a member of both sober October and protect your part.
Tom Segura
Oh, yeah.
Bert Kreischer
You're the only one you're the only one.
Ari Shafir
The only respect in the name.
Bert Kreischer
What's that?
Ari Shafir
Put respect on the name.
Bert Kreischer
We've never watched that episode. We refuse to.
Ari Shafir
Okay.
Bert Kreischer
We just think it's kind of ridiculous that we got replaced.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
Just replaced. Straight up. Two new white guys. At least make it diverse. Bring in an Asian or a black guy. No, wait, you didn't pick it.
Ari Shafir
I did pick it. I'm the one who.
Tom Segura
He brought them there.
Ari Shafir
I said, hey, we're going to Skank Fest. We're going to Daily. Who wants you replaced?
Bert Kreischer
Us? Yeah.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
Why?
Ari Shafir
Because you were showing me some disrespect off the free drugs I gave you. Not, no, thank you, and then so forth.
Bert Kreischer
Wait, wait, wait.
Ari Shafir
And then I said, okay, I'll move on.
Bert Kreischer
We got replaced because you drugged me and I didn't enjoy it. You did enjoy it, but no, hold on.
Ari Shafir
Act like you.
Bert Kreischer
You're. Hold on. I. I thought Joe replaced us.
Ari Shafir
I said to Joe and Tom, hey, and Tom. Yeah, I'm going to be in Austin. I sent them both texts with Norman and Shane, and I said, we're going to. We got to go to Houston. We can stop for a day before. You want, like a four. And Joe's like, yeah, just so you know.
Tom Segura
Yeah, I don't care.
Ari Shafir
Right?
Tom Segura
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
Just, you know, I'm the only one that cares.
Ari Shafir
Tom's like, I'm running an empire. I don't.
Bert Kreischer
I have a career also. But like. But also I do go. I wish it would be fun to get that Joe.
Ari Shafir
To get that laid back.
Bert Kreischer
The fun to protect your parks. Joe is not sober. October.
Ari Shafir
No, it's pretty close. It's pretty close. We just get tuned up and fucking. All you do is. None of us challenge them to fucking workouts. None of us on protective parts. Go, let's do a push.
Bert Kreischer
I think I'm getting the. I think I'm understanding. Am I the problem?
Tom Segura
You're the factor. I wouldn't say problem.
Ari Shafir
You're a factor. You're a key factor, for sure.
Bert Kreischer
I like.
Tom Segura
My part of it is that when you come in, he. He's going like, how's this guy alive? You know?
Ari Shafir
You're the self help guy.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah, he's self help guy.
Ari Shafir
No, no, you're not self help. But he's like, let's help this guy. Not self help now. What's the opposite of self help?
Bert Kreischer
Backfiring.
Tom Segura
Totally.
Ari Shafir
Yeah. So it becomes that. That's when it becomes annoying for you when you're like, all right, leave me alone.
Tom Segura
Yeah, because sometimes you Come in. Right. And he's just like, what's going on? You all right?
Ari Shafir
Yeah. I've taken that role and protect our parks, where they're like, let's advise Ari. I'm like, I don't want advice.
Tom Segura
Oh, they start that to you?
Ari Shafir
Yeah, I am this role.
Bert Kreischer

Ari Shafir
Protect our parks. It is. Okay? It's all shifted.

Bert Kreischer
Are you me?
Ari Shafir

Bert Kreischer
You're me.
Ari Shafir
I'm you. Shane's Joe.
Bert Kreischer
What?
Ari Shafir
Joe's Tom.
Bert Kreischer
Shut the fuck up.
Ari Shafir
Yeah, Tom. Norman's me and I'm you.
Tom Segura
Wow, that's a huge shift.
Bert Kreischer
That's actually.
Ari Shafir
It's Shane show.
Tom Segura
Oh, it's Shane runs it.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Tom Segura
Really?
Ari Shafir
Shane show.
Bert Kreischer
Really?
Ari Shafir
This is my impression of Joe Rogan. When Shane's in the room.
Bert Kreischer
Do you impress it? Do your impression of Joe Rogan when I'm in the room.
Ari Shafir
I'll do it as Churchill. I'll do Joe Rogan.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah. Oh, no.
Tom Segura
So he fan. He fans out?
Ari Shafir
Yeah, he fans out hard.
Bert Kreischer
A little bit. For real?
Ari Shafir
Yeah, he loves him. But. But. But then Norman, I. When me, when on Sober October, I just get to tag. I just get to, like, throw in jokes. It's fun. Make fun of your fat feet, make, you know, whatever. And then, like, that's what Norman's job is.
Tom Segura
He just tag, tag, tag, tag, tag, tag.
Bert Kreischer
And who's me again?
Ari Shafir
I'm you in that. I slow it down and I. And then they're like, unwanted advice comes my way.
Bert Kreischer
Oh, yeah, you get the. Oh, we can fix Ari.
Ari Shafir
Yeah. I'm like, what? Great, fine. Same as you. We're like, I'm not looking to quit drinking.
Bert Kreischer
I'm having a really good time.
Ari Shafir
You're going to have withdrawals and, like, I'm not even going to quit. What are you talking about? You're like, I want to take a day off. And everyone's like, let's get you to the hospital.
Bert Kreischer
So do you think we'll ever do sober October again?
Ari Shafir
We should. I got a new special. That would be a good excuse to come do one.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah, but can I be Joe?
Ari Shafir
You can be Joe. Let's make him not sit in that seat.
Bert Kreischer
Okay.
Tom Segura
Oh, you want to sit in the seat?
Bert Kreischer
I want to be Joe.
Ari Shafir
How do you get to be Joe, though?
Tom Segura
Yeah, how do you. How are you gonna Joe.
Ari Shafir
What Joe does that you don't have the capacity to do is not make it all about himself.
Bert Kreischer
Hold on. Fuck off. No, hold on. There's a clip, though. Hold on. Fuck you.
Ari Shafir
There's gotta be a clip out there of you not interrupting.
Bert Kreischer
No, I'm not interrupting. I'm having a fucking conversation.
Ari Shafir
Yeah, okay.
Bert Kreischer
That's how. Conversations. And sometimes I'll say if you said. And then I go, God, that's crazy. I would never be able to do that. And then. Cause Joe's done that. He goes, don't make it about you. I go, but that's how life works. I think of things and I go, that's amazing. I could never run 25 miles.
Tom Segura
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
You know, like, I can never run 50 miles, but. Okay, I'll be Joe. I won't make anything about myself. Okay, we'll put Joe in my seat.
Ari Shafir
No, we sweat. I don't think we sit in the same seats there, do we? I'm not sure.
Tom Segura
We always sit in the same seats.
Bert Kreischer
When we do it. I'm going to a different seat next time. I'm gonna put on a costume. I'm gonna go in a different seat, and I'm gonna put in earplugs so I don't interrupt anybody.
Ari Shafir
Yeah, that won't do it.
Tom Segura
Just go. It starts now.
Ari Shafir
Maybe a muzzle. You guys gotta have a ball gag here.
Tom Segura
Yeah, we do.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah, it'll be cool. That'd be really fun for me. I would get friends.
Tom Segura
How would you run the show? How would it be different? What would you do? Yeah, you would just be like, welcome to the Bert Experience.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah, welcome to the bird experience. The bird experience. I'm here with my three favorite people.
Ari Shafir
That's pretty good.
Bert Kreischer
And I start and I go, obviously, Joe Rogan. He's like a big brother to me. I can't wait to get some great life advice from him. I got Tom Segura here, one of my best friends in the world, and obviously a guy I can't live without. Ari Shafir, guys, welcome to the podcast. Would anyone like a joint?
Ari Shafir
Wow, you're crushing it.

Tom Segura
Okay. And then, like, what's the first, like, conversation?
Ari Shafir
I'm sorry, I wasn't listening. Say that one more time. It's not.
Bert Kreischer
You should just. Okay, I'd just be like, I was listening. And I think that's a great point. I will be like. I'll be definitely. I'm gonna be Joe Centric.
Ari Shafir
Have you guys ever.
Bert Kreischer
I Want Joe to be the star of the show.
Ari Shafir
Great.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah. Because as my show, I want him to really shine first. Okay, watch this.
Ari Shafir
Okay.
Bert Kreischer
I talk about bow hunting right away, and I wouldn't once tell him how good I am.
Tom Segura
Just us.
Bert Kreischer
I know. You guys will have to bring it up.
Tom Segura
All right.
Ari Shafir
Okay. Well.
Tom Segura
Hey, man, have you seen Bert shoot a bow and arrow?
Bert Kreischer
Tom. Keep it on, Joe.
Tom Segura
Oh, sorry, Sorry.
Ari Shafir
No, we got to be more. We got to be like. Got to be like, oh, this. Does this look like a bow to you guys? Just something I was thinking about.
Tom Segura
Does anyone at this table know anything about archery? Yeah, just like that. Kind of lob it up.
Ari Shafir
It's. Hey, it's Christmas. Did you guys hide bows on your presents?
Tom Segura
Speaking of bows.
Ari Shafir
Oh, what?
Tom Segura
You're shot a bow and arrow?
Ari Shafir
That's crazy.
Tom Segura
Yeah, it's crazy.
Bert Kreischer
I have a target set up in my backyard. I got a compound bow from Cam Haynes, and I'm obsessed with it, and I really want to go bow hunting now. Except for carrying the meat out. Is the. What? The part that I. Just.
Tom Segura
Just leave it. Just leave it. Dude.
Ari Shafir
How much do you. How much of your life is lived to get Joe Rogan to say, I'm finally proud of you?
Tom Segura
It's a higher percentage than he wants to say.
Bert Kreischer
I'm gonna get so real.
Ari Shafir
Oh, boy. Tears are here.
Bert Kreischer
No, no, no. I don't cry anymore. Oh. I definitely wouldn't cry when I did. There is a part of me that I'm. That. That I'm uncomfortable with how much that accurate that statement is. I look up to him so much, like, as a big brother, because I never had a big brother. And, like, his advice he gave me and stand up when I was at my lowest was so pivotal in getting me to where I am today that, like, when I catch good clips that he says, like, nice things about me, it makes me happier than it should make me.
Ari Shafir
Yeah, it's like when a black guy.
Bert Kreischer
Says, good job, or, like, nice shoes.
Ari Shafir
Four to one.
Bert Kreischer
When a black guy's like, dude, I like your shoes.
Ari Shafir
You're like, no, true.
Tom Segura
There's a. I think there's a scale of black compliments. Yeah, it's like there's. There's a black eye complimenting your outfit.
Ari Shafir
Overall, that's fresh sun is like, oh. Oh.
Tom Segura
And if he specifies your kicks, that's a pretty.
Bert Kreischer
Like. And then if you liked your stand up.
Tom Segura
Well, I was saying, black guy tells you you're funny. It's just.
Bert Kreischer
Dude, that's like.
Ari Shafir
It's way higher I was with Mike Cannon. We were doing a casino gig, and we're just, like, bolting through the halls to get to the. To get. Get somebody to eat. But, like, oh, thanks, thanks. Trying to get, like, just. And then we're just not stopping at all. And then one block. I was like, hey, man, I was at your show. Like, hey, thanks, man. That's really cool of you. It's four to one minimum.
Tom Segura
So there. There's that one. Then there's. Oh, complimenting your athleticism. That's.
Ari Shafir
I've never done.
Tom Segura
Oh, my God. That is a. That's really high on the scale.
Bert Kreischer
Like, if they just go, man. Oh, you got ups. Something like casual. You're, like, crazy.
Tom Segura
Like, pickup game and something like. Yeah, that's. And then I guess the. Then talking about your, like, saying, you have a nice dick. That one's really high.
Bert Kreischer
And then look at the piece on him.
Tom Segura
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
Tommy, take it out of her mouth. Show everyone. Yeah.
Tom Segura
And then the only thing better is if they suck it. That's the best.
Ari Shafir
So strong, so athletic.
Bert Kreischer
I had the best getting recognized I've ever had in my life. And I. I. Peter's in the other room. What I'm saying is 100% true.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
So we're in Vegas. Isla brings her boyfriend to Vegas. He's never had in and out. So Sunday morning, everyone's leaving at, like, noon. I raced in and out at 10 in the morning to go get in and out for everyone in our party, right? My parents, everyone. As we pull up in the Uber, we tell the guy to wait for us. And there are Is a black man and a black woman. They're dressed, and it looks like they work together. They look like they worked in and out. We thought they were the greeters, but they're screaming at the top of their lungs, get the fuck out of here. What the fuck? I said I'm on your team. I fucking smack you. I mean, the most. I swear to God, I'm not understanding this. If Peter walked in right now, he would nod and say they were doing that in and out, outside the In N Out at the front door. So that's McDonald's shit to have to get into. In n out. You have to walk legit through this argument. And as we walk through the argument, he said, woman, I. God damn it, Bert Kreischer. Holy shit, you funny as fuck. Jack me up. And he goes. I was like, yeah, thanks. And he's like, I walked in, he goes. I said, it was the funniest interaction I've Ever had in my life.
Tom Segura
Good. It's high up there.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah.
Tom Segura
Recognition is.
Ari Shafir
Yeah. A Joe Rogan compliment is better than a regular compliment if it's about, like, stand up or bow, I'm sure bow hunting.
Bert Kreischer
No, stand up. Stand up. Or like, I. I. Stand up is a big one. Business stuff. Like, if he ever says, like, dude, you're like. Like, I remember him complimenting Tommy to me one time, and he was like, dude, can you believe what Tom's doing? And I was.
Ari Shafir
Weight loss, you mean?
Bert Kreischer
No.
Ari Shafir
Oh, no. Because he knew you couldn't believe that.
Bert Kreischer
No, I couldn't, but. But I was like. I was like, oh, I should tell Tommy this. This is a really sweet compliment that he gave to Tommy through me. He was like, dude, he's just killing it. At the same time, he was like. We were at the back at the store and he was like, you need to get a Netflix special. And I was like, I don't know how to do that. He's like, be undeniable. And I was like, what does that mean? He's like, just be undeniable.
Ari Shafir
I just was like, that's Schultz's new podcast. I don't know, it just sounds like something.
Bert Kreischer
I wrote it in my joke book. And I was like, just be undeniable. And then you start when you see when you're undeniable on stage and you just crush all the time and people don't want to follow you, then you're like, oh, that's what that is. But, yeah, the one compliment that took a long time to get from Joe was the marathon.
Ari Shafir
Congrats for doing it.
Bert Kreischer
Thank you. All right.
Ari Shafir
No, that. Yeah, because I told you, I was rubbing it in. I was trolling him. We were in a car with. Who's the guy? Shitty feet. Yeah. Cam Haynes. And I was like, so I think Joe's in the middle, Cameron's in the front. And I was like, oh, let me. Because I know he wasn't saying. I was like, hey, Cam, what do you think about Bert's marathon? And he goes, dude, that's crazy. That's like a legit hard thing to do. That's so good.
Bert Kreischer
I texted Joe the other day because I was. I'm in Austin and I'm having to work out bench for this bed I have. And so I texted him and I was like, hey, can you hook me up at Onyx the John? What's the bet? That convention, 315 by January 1st.
Ari Shafir
What do you got?
Bert Kreischer
I did 295 twice today.
Ari Shafir
Damn.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah. Clean like, clean nothing. Just by myself. And so did two.
Ari Shafir
Is it hard for you to bench without a buffet on it? Sorry.
Bert Kreischer
And so I had text. I texted Joe, and I was like. I was like, sorry. I was like, hey, can I get. Can I. Can you help me get in it? On it. Maybe reach out to Aubrey? I need to. I need a bench. And then, like an idiot, I go, I'm in a bench Press bet for 315. And as I hit send, I was like, I didn't need to include that second part. Yeah. Because I know Joe in his head's like, the. You doing. Yeah, the you doing a bench press bet. 3. You're gonna hurt yourself. I could hear him.
Ari Shafir
You're gonna hurt yourself. Yeah.
Tom Segura
What'd he say?
Bert Kreischer
He went, sure. He had. So Aubrey hit me up and. And then I worked out it. On it today. It's. It was. It's. I mean, on. It is beautiful. I mean, there are so many beautiful people there. Everyone. And no. Like, you'd think there'd be all influency and videotaping themselves. They're not. It's like, just fucking people really working out.
Tom Segura
They're super fit.
Bert Kreischer
Yes. Yeah, dude. A guy, Tommy. A guy was doing deadlifts, but he was doing them with the bar in his arm like this. And he'd reach all the way down. I mean, he'd bend all the way down. So the bars here in his bicep, and it would touch the ground. He'd bend over all the way. I've never seen anyone do something like this. I was like, what the fuck?
Ari Shafir
I love a rocky workout. You know, rocky.
Tom Segura
Not a squat, not a front.
Bert Kreischer
No, it was a bent. It was a dead.
Tom Segura
It called a Zerger squat.
Bert Kreischer
It was a deadlift where his body bent like this, Tom. All the way down. And it. The bar. The weights touched the ground, and he took it all the way up in his. In his. No, it was a bed. It was a dead. Right, same grip. Deadlift. Deadlift. It was crazy.
Ari Shafir
What's a deadlift? Like. Like the. This.
Bert Kreischer
No, when you bend over and pick it up, Stand up, and then bend over and pick it up. Yeah. I've never seen someone.
Tom Segura
No, there it is.
Bert Kreischer
No, no, no, but that is.
Tom Segura
Look, he's doing it.
Bert Kreischer
No, but he.
Ari Shafir
To the top. Top right.
Bert Kreischer
He was going like this. He was going like this.
Tom Segura
But isn't that. That image right there?
Ari Shafir
All back, all back, all the way.
Bert Kreischer
Down, and he could touch the ground and come all the way up, all back.
Ari Shafir
That's the.
Bert Kreischer
What Was that a bad angle all back? It was crazy.
Ari Shafir
That seems nuts to do that.
Tom Segura
That's very crazy. Yeah. So did you see that guy's.
Bert Kreischer
Oh, yeah. Okay. Are you pro murdering CEOs?
Ari Shafir
I mean, I like mayhem, so. Yeah. Not specifically.
Tom Segura
Yeah, you're one of the first people that I thought of.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah. I was like, ari's into this.
Ari Shafir
I was pissed about it because it shows this video and it shows, you know, graphic content and then the guy passes, he pulls the gun and then the video stops.
Bert Kreischer
It's not.
Ari Shafir
Where's the graphic?
Tom Segura
You can. You can watch it.
Ari Shafir
Can't use the word graphic content willy nilly like that.
Tom Segura
I know.
Bert Kreischer
I don't think I've ever thought if I was to assassinate someone, I think I'd want them to see me.
Ari Shafir
Well, if you don't want to get caught, that guy didn't want to get caught. Also, he didn't know the camera was there, right?
Bert Kreischer
No.
Tom Segura
Well, he was all covered up.
Ari Shafir
Yeah, it was covered up, but.
Bert Kreischer
No, but if you cold. It was. Don't you want to do it right in their face? I don't want to do it behind.
Tom Segura
Well, the guy did turn around and definitely saw him, but he saw a masked guy because after he fell, when you see the footage. Yeah. He turns and who is this?
Bert Kreischer
Yeah, it bums me out that. It bums me out that the Internet loves that this guy got murdered.
Ari Shafir
Yeah. They don't know anything about him.
Bert Kreischer
They just go, yeah, good. And you're like, he's got kids. And I don't know if he has kids.
Tom Segura
He does. He has kids.
Bert Kreischer
He has kids.
Tom Segura
He also came from a real working class background and, you know, became a CEO.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah, but the Internet loves this.
Ari Shafir
Why did he kill him?
Tom Segura
Because he basically thinks that, well, using the guy as a symbol for health care in America and like, how callous and careless.
Ari Shafir
And I have that health care. It's been annoying going to three different doctors and go, no, no. You're on a specific plan that you don't cover this mic. But I called before, like, yeah, but now we see your car.
Tom Segura
Yeah, but a lot of it too was about, like, how so many people are put in, like, your claims denied.
Ari Shafir
Oh, yeah.
Tom Segura
And they need life saving, sometimes care.
Ari Shafir
I was talking to Bobby Kelly about in Havana where he was like, well, say whatever you want, but American healthcare is the best in the world. And I was like, what are you talking about?
Tom Segura
We're capable. Like, so people who have free health care, a lot of times, if they're of means you Know they. A lot of times they don't talk about in, like, in Canada, parts of Europe, where they go, it's on the house here. Like, there's still year plus long waits for certain procedures, so people of means there will fly over. But these people are writing check. They're people who can afford to go. Like, I want to go to the Mayo Clinic, you know, here you go. So they're not going through insurance in that position. Oh, you know what I mean?
Bert Kreischer
Okay. Can I ask a. Can I ask a crazy question? You can not answer it if you want. So when. But I don't know how private you want to be about this, but when Push got cancer, do you have to do like the. Do you. Do you. Do you just go, like, how does that work? Do you have to like, like wait and stuff?
Ari Shafir
I'll answer this one. So what she did, or can you.
Bert Kreischer
Pay extra money and go, we need this taken care of today by the best guy. Can you do that?
Tom Segura
Well, I don't know. I mean, we. We have insurance and it was just a matter of like, being diagnosed. And, you know, we want to see this doctor. Our plan allowed us to see this doctor. And then the appointment was like, within days. It was.
Bert Kreischer
This is a very ignorant question. If you have more money, I guess you have better health care. Do we all have the same health care?
Ari Shafir
You can get private stuff done.
Tom Segura
Yeah, I mean, we have it through a large insurance company, but I think we do too.
Ari Shafir
Like mental health, anything they offer you is. Is pretty shitty. And the really good ones are like, I don't take insurance. You're gonna have to pay for that or get you.
Tom Segura
Really?
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
Okay.
Tom Segura
Yeah. I mean, it could have. I mean, the benefit we have, obviously is like, if somebody had been like, we're not gonna do this, I could have come out of pocket for it. But a lot of people aren't in that position, you know, So I just.
Bert Kreischer
Had the same kidney infection for three times now for the past three weeks. And it's been a pain in the ass. But. And it's just. But it's doctors going like, dang, whatever. Like, they're not. They're just not. They're not taking it serious. And then the doctor we saw today was like, this is. She needs to be on intravenous whatever.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
Antibiotics.
Ari Shafir
It was. The biggest mind to me is to realize not every doctor is good.
Tom Segura
Yeah.
Ari Shafir
Because you grew up trusting all of them, all doctors, too. Like, they're doing it and they're just better and worse doctors.
Tom Segura
We put them In a special platform. We're just like, all doctors are inherently wonderful people that are here to take care of.
Bert Kreischer
Hey, if you're in med school right now and you're listening to this podcast, you need to drop out. You should not be listening to our podcast. If you're in med school, you need to drop the out and travel through South America. Get the out of med school. If you're listening. What other occupations should not be listening to this podcast that we can maybe help? Priest. If you're a priest.
Ari Shafir
Yeah. Yeah. You're a breeze of any kind.
Tom Segura
Don't be.
Bert Kreischer
Come out of the closet, dude.
Ari Shafir
Don't be.
Bert Kreischer
Not worth it.
Tom Segura
It's not good for priests. What's an inherently good or seemingly inherently good track to take in your professional lives besides medicine?
Ari Shafir
Medicine's like the ultimate lawyer medicine. That's what our people.
Tom Segura
But we always. We accept that a lawyer can be a piece of. We almost expect them to.
Ari Shafir
Doctors are never crooked. Lawyers are always crooked.
Tom Segura
Yeah. Dennis, too.
Bert Kreischer
Dennis and car. People that fix cars, I always think are crooked.
Ari Shafir
I found this out with Dennis. You could be like, hey, it's your church. Barely ever covers it. Half tops. And, like, it's as much. You could offer them less you, like, I don't have that. Can I give you, like, 300 and then. Really? Yeah. All right. It's just going to them. If they're like, I'm not full tomorrow anyway. Sure. It's a free 300. If you're like, I actually can't afford a thousand.
Tom Segura
I learned that with, like, veterinary care. If there. If you have, like, a sick animal, like, whatever. It was like, 12 years ago, that dog.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah.
Tom Segura
They were like, it's like a. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We were like, this dog we had for, like, a week, and he had this horrible, like, life threat, and they put him in the thing. They're like, it's a thousand dollars a day. And so we did it for a couple days. I was like, hey, I can't just keep doing a thousand dollars a day. And they're like, what can you do? I was like, I don't know. A couple hundred. And they're like, okay. You know, like, it just shifted to that.
Ari Shafir
Was that always?
Tom Segura
Yeah. They were just like, yeah, fine.
Ari Shafir
Can I get that other thousand back?
Tom Segura
Yeah, that one you gave us?
Ari Shafir
Yeah, okay.
Tom Segura
Yeah, yeah.
Ari Shafir
Then.
Tom Segura
Then they kept them there on 200 a day.
Ari Shafir
Wow.
Bert Kreischer
Dude. We had a fucking hack. A hack. Do leg surgeries on Priscilla. Priscilla had five knee surgeries, and on, like, one of them, they went in and they're like, oh, he left all this in there. Like, all the wires. No wonder she couldn't walk. Like. And we were like, what the. And you just think because they sound confident, they know what the fuck they're doing.
Tom Segura
If you tell, like, Eastern European people that you have surgery for your dog, they just laugh, you know, That's a party. One time was talking about. He was like. This guy was like, wait, you did what for your dog? And we're like, yeah, the surgery. Like, surgery? Like, no, no, you just put the dog outside. You shoot it in the head, dude.
Ari Shafir
I went to. I was in Columbia Spanish school, and we were, like, talking about perils and whatever.
Tom Segura
Yeah.
Ari Shafir
And somebody's like, where? So where are your dogs? This Venezuelan refugee who's teaching us Spanish in Colombia. And. And everyone's like, mine's with my sister. I was like, okay, hermana, you know, or whatever. Like, you know. And then. And then one of the guys, like, mine's like, at a. Like, a doggy resort. Doggy hotel. And then the lady's like, no, I think you're using the wrong word. And we're all like. She's like, what do you mean by that? It's, like, kind of a resort for dogs. Like, a lot of acreage. And she's just like, my father was killed.
Tom Segura
Yeah, you have a resort for your dog, they can't even conceive of it.
Ari Shafir
All right, I guess I'm teaching this class. Tip Better be good.
Tom Segura
Oh, my God.
Bert Kreischer
You ever gas up an Uber driver?
Ari Shafir
What do you mean?
Bert Kreischer
Just be like, yeah, man. Women drivers. And he's like, oh, buddy, you have no idea. And then your wife's in. My wife's in the car, and I'm just getting this guy worked up.
Tom Segura
I had a guy get so worked up, an Uber driver, about JFK assassination, and I didn't even ask for it. I didn't even ask.
Ari Shafir
That's great.
Tom Segura
I was just like. I think I was in Nebraska. And he's like, where you from? And I was like, austin. He's like, I was just in Dallas. Let me tell you something, man. Zero fucking doubt. There's zero fucking doubt. CIA. And I was like, you know what? I actually don't need to go that far. If you could just pull over here. He gave me, like, all that. I was like, yeah. He goes, here's this guy's number. If you want to go get on the tour. Gives me the guy's number. I was like, cool. You know, he's like. He laid out everybody involved And I was like, you just did this, huh? He's like, yeah. He was like 70.
Ari Shafir
Wow. It's tough to argue with him. It's like they're set.
Tom Segura
Cool, man.
Ari Shafir
I had one of those way back from Dixie Chicks. We got one of those like cabs. It was just like somebody has like four cars, you know?
Tom Segura
Yeah.
Ari Shafir
And so it's just a minivan. He was cool. He was like, you guys had fun tonight? He's like, if you want to stop at 7:11, we got beers, you can drink them. We're like, oh, this guy rules. Yeah, the back drive, it's an hour drive, 20 minutes in. He goes, so where do you guys get your news from? And he just started talking. What do you think about this guy? What do you think about this guy? They're all liberals in the back with me, so they're like, no, I'm a fan of whatever. He goes, oh boy, I bet you. And then he goes. He goes. I'm like, where do you get your news from? He goes, google alternativenews.com. and I'm like, wait, Google what? Alternative news. He goes, no, google alternativenews.com. that's the site. I guess it's called Google Alternative News.
Bert Kreischer
And then he goes, alternative news dot com.
Ari Shafir
You know, Michelle Obama's a man. And I was like, I've heard that. Whatever. I'm just agreeing with him. I only stopped when he got to Madonna's a man. Yeah. And I was like, off. Dude, that's a sex symbol. No way.
Tom Segura
There the. Oh, here it is.
Ari Shafir
Look how it's built.
Bert Kreischer
Like when you're learning HTML News, news, target science, medicine.
Ari Shafir
Oh, let's see some science from alternativenews.com.
Tom Segura
Can you make that bigger? Measles being spread by vaccinated in all caps children Research confirms.
Ari Shafir
Oh boy.
Tom Segura
Total corruption. Government regulators relied on industry funded herbicide studies to declare glyce. What? Glyphosate safe, weaker in space. Long duration. Spacelight linked to smaller spinal muscles and astronauts. Acupuncture found as effective as nicotine replacement therapy for helping people quit smoking. Okay.
Ari Shafir
Natural five ways apple cider vinegar can help give you healthy hair. Birch. How about we're about apple cider vinegar, dude?
Bert Kreischer
It gives me stupid cops.
Ari Shafir
What is that one?
Tom Segura
French police officers play gun drawing game on each other. Female officers shot dead by her partner who apparently had the faster draw. Apparently.
Bert Kreischer
Wait, they were going like this? They were going like. They were going. Let's see who draws faster. The guy just shot. Oh, I forgot I wasn't supposed to Shoot.
Ari Shafir
Holy shit. What? They don't even get guns. They've never really held one. Oh, yeah. Sign up for.
Tom Segura
There's an old story. They're telling the story.
Ari Shafir
Five years later, they're searching. AlternatorNews.com is not what it used to be.
Tom Segura
It's really not that. By the way, that Michelle, man, thing, the le. The level of disrespect involved in that story. Can you imagine that? You're her.
Ari Shafir
Like, come on, man, I was just.
Tom Segura
Married to the guy you don't.
Bert Kreischer
Like, I'm just first lady.
Tom Segura
And they're like, you got a dick. It's like, it's fucking. No, dude. It's so disrespectful.
Ari Shafir
And like, look, she's bigger than Ellen. You can see her just stretched out on Photoshop.
Bert Kreischer
See, my problem is I do that with all news. Like, I think of all news. I go, sure, whatever. Like the. They're saying Jay Z allegedly is with P. Diddy on like some sexual assault of a 13 year old. Allegedly. But like, I just go, I look at all that and I go, that can't be real. That can't be real.
Ari Shafir
Nothing can.
Bert Kreischer
Nothing can be real.
Ari Shafir
When. When LeBron took a day off that. Personal reasons, and they're like, it's a Diddy thing. Why has he gone to a non extraditable country and then he's back the next day?
Bert Kreischer
Yeah.
Ari Shafir
He goes, no, it's my foot.
Tom Segura
Yeah.
Ari Shafir
No, I didn't.
Bert Kreischer
So is Diddy going to jail?
Ari Shafir
He's in jail. He's got denied his second bail and that's when it set in. He's not coming out.
Bert Kreischer
He's not coming out.
Tom Segura
He's at Rikers.
Bert Kreischer
Dude, are you serious?
Tom Segura
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
Okay. I really haven't been following the Diddy stuff.
Ari Shafir
Where is his music been lately, though? I mean, bad boys for life. How about bad boys for a short amount of time?
Bert Kreischer
I know, man.
Tom Segura
I want to hear some of those beats again.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
So wait, what happens to all his money?
Tom Segura
Oh, we get frozen assets. They freeze them right now. And they also. He offered about $50 million bail. And they were like, no.
Bert Kreischer
Why?
Ari Shafir
Because you're gone.
Tom Segura
He would disappear because he's too much of a flight risk. Yeah. And like, but you know, to offer up. He offered up, I think, his Bel Air house or Beverly Hills house. And my favorite is that he was like, and my mom's house. So he was like, her.
Ari Shafir
That's how they're like, well, he wouldn't do it. He wouldn't skip out on his mom.
Tom Segura
Yeah. So Jesus. They were like, no. Which just shows you that, like, someone's a flight risk. But also you probably have some pretty damning evidence to deny that person.
Ari Shafir
I think he. This is going to put Weinstein and Cosby as, like, a footnote.
Bert Kreischer
Hang on.
Ari Shafir
Do you. And it just goes to.
Bert Kreischer
What do you think? Because I remember when, when the. The Hollywood Me too was going on, I was like, yo, if. If this goes to hip hop, houses are gonna fall.
Ari Shafir
I mean, because there's.
Bert Kreischer
Because, I mean, the stories you've heard of trains being. Trains being run. And I, I mean, I've always thought.
Ari Shafir
Trains are all right.
Bert Kreischer
I always thought trains could never be consensual. I was like, trains?
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
What chicks? Like, my dream is five dudes all me and laughing about me as a high five.
Tom Segura
I remember when the basketball team at my college did that.
Ari Shafir
Yeah, yeah.
Bert Kreischer
For real?
Ari Shafir
Yeah, we had one of those too. Some girl was. And they videotaped. She was jerking off two guys. One was fucking her and she was yelling, go, Terps. Go Terps. She transferred.
Tom Segura
It kind of ruins your name on campus a little bit.
Bert Kreischer
But, like, do you think the. This. Because you see Diddy and right now you go, if the. I mean, like, they say that allegedly Ashton Kutcher is involved. Allegedly Bieber's involved, a lot of celebs.
Ari Shafir
Allegedly. Everyone.
Bert Kreischer
Everyone's involved.
Ari Shafir
There's videos of Rosie ODonnell like, decade ago, like, interviewing people and just going, like, making like, offhanded jokes about it to life. Like, he's get. He's going like, just like. They all kind of knew the way we were with like, Harvey Weinstein. We're like, we sort of heard, but.
Tom Segura
I don't also, like, he had the, the wherewithal to back like 10 plus years ago being like, no, no phones. Like before that became like a thing.
Bert Kreischer
Who did he. Yeah.
Tom Segura
So people would go to these, like, yacht parties and Hampton parties and they. You'd have to turn your phone in, like.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah, I guess it's not perfect.
Ari Shafir
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Bert Kreischer
I. I always think, like, I always think the best in the best case scenarios because I. I was going, this has got to be something. Even with Cosby. Like, even with Jared from Subway, your buddy. I always think I was like, there's no way. There's no way.
Ari Shafir
Yeah, there's no way. You can't even wrap your head around it. Like, real, like, no way.
Bert Kreischer
Really evil people.
Ari Shafir
And you want to be like, he's just like, I don't know.
Tom Segura
I had pizza with him.
Ari Shafir
You did?
Tom Segura
Yeah.
Ari Shafir
I thought, that's the worst thing he's done. I thought he wasn't a pizza guy.
Tom Segura
I know, man. I remember.
Bert Kreischer
What a betrayal. He lied about that. What a betrayal.
Tom Segura
Subs I remember. Here's what I remember about Jared. When we got to the set on the first thing. It was June in Jersey. As we were shooting the first commercial, it was humid, super hot. And they had, like, a shitty trailer for me because even though I was starring in them with him, I was the new hire. So it was like. It was like. Like, you know, just weak AC. It's like 100 degrees. And he had a. He had a, like, tour bus, you know, like a. It's decked out. And he's like, hey, if you want good ac, just you can go in my bus. And I was like, oh, thanks, man. So he went there. I go in there. There's pictures of kids everywhere.
Ari Shafir
Shut up.
Tom Segura
So. But I. I hang out in his. In his thing.
Bert Kreischer
What are you casting?
Tom Segura
And then. And then we shot for the. We shot for the day, and then we go back to the city, and he was. We were at the W Hotel, one of the. There's like, four W hotels. I remember that in New York. We're at one of them. And he's like, hey, you want to. He goes, you want to split a pizza? And I was like, all right. And he's like, yeah, man. They keep telling me I'm gaining weight because his whole thing was like, can't gain weight. He's like, you know, Anyways, want to get pizza? I was like, sure. That'll help. So had a couple slices of pizza. And. Yeah. You know, he's like a. He's a terribly uncharismatic guy, if you remember. Like, he's actually bad as an actor on. On film. Like, there's nothing.
Ari Shafir
Like, they just kind of show him holding the old pants.
Bert Kreischer
That's.
Ari Shafir
That's all he ever did.
Tom Segura
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
And when.
Tom Segura
I'm saying, when he had to deliver lines, he was always like, you know, like, just kind of the nerd.
Bert Kreischer
Right?
Tom Segura
Like, if he was an actor, he would never get a job.
Ari Shafir
Right.
Tom Segura
As an actor.
Bert Kreischer
Okay, let's play this game. Who's the most evil person you've ever met?
Ari Shafir
You're up there. I'm joking. Oh, yeah, it might be me. Yeah, that's me.
Bert Kreischer
You're right.
Ari Shafir
You're right, you're right. It's me. Who's the most evil person? Interesting. That's a good question.
Tom Segura
Well, he's got to be at the.
Bert Kreischer
He's Got to be number one. I've never met. I'm trying to think. I've never met, which I would never.
Tom Segura
Here's the thing. You never. I would never walk away from that meat engagement with him thinking, what an evil guy.
Ari Shafir
Right?
Tom Segura
It's that. It's a hidden thing.
Bert Kreischer
I grew up with a serial killer.
Tom Segura
That's pretty evil.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah. I can't say his name.
Tom Segura
Why?
Bert Kreischer
I don't know. Because he killed people, and his family still lives around the corner from my family.
Tom Segura
That's fine. He's in prison for it, right?
Bert Kreischer
Just edit it out. He killed. He killed hookers on the causeway.
Tom Segura
Really?
Bert Kreischer
Yeah, yeah.
Tom Segura
Tampa.
Bert Kreischer
He'd go, I think you're probably spelling it. I don't know how to spell it. We were kids. I don't know. But, yeah. What's so funny is how many did you get?
Ari Shafir
Hookers, huh?
Bert Kreischer
Yeah, my sister called me. She was like, yo, got caught killing hookers on the causeway when we were kids one time. You know, like, everyone's like, yeah, what do you guys want to do? What do you want to do? Edit names out? Only because these people still live in that neighborhood. But, like, he's like, you guys want to go into house and cut the crotches out of our underwear? And I was like, what? He's like, my parents are watching our house. I got keys. Cut the crotches out of their underwear. And I was like, no. I was like, what? Why? And that's what he wanted.
Ari Shafir
He should have let him. Maybe wouldn't kill too many hookers.
Bert Kreischer
I don't know.
Tom Segura
Yeah, it's pretty evil.
Ari Shafir
Yeah. How many did he get?
Bert Kreischer
I don't know.
Ari Shafir
Is. I mean, if you're gonna kill, that's who you want to get.
Tom Segura
That's. That is because they're not gonna put their resources really into it, and nobody.
Ari Shafir
Misses them right away.
Tom Segura
No.
Bert Kreischer
I bet. I bet hookers have great, like, radar senses of when shit's going south, though.
Ari Shafir
You only up once.
Bert Kreischer
Like, you could kill. I think killing a regular woman would be so much easier than killing a prostitute.
Tom Segura
All right? Because they know when something's.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah. A hooker's gonna be like. Hooker's gonna be like, no, no, no. They got boundaries.
Ari Shafir
Yeah. Regular woman will do. Like, you know that guy who got killed and saved by rhyme with the guys on top of the knife? He goes, no, no, no, it's my. Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
I'd say that's so bad. Yeah. It would be so easy to kill a regular woman.
Tom Segura
Well, there's that guy that just killed.
Ari Shafir
Interesting. I mean, that now we shift. Black goes to the bottom of that.
Bert Kreischer
No, I mean, I'm not even sure. Yeah, I'm not even trying.
Ari Shafir
Okay, let me. I'm like. We're just thinking about this. My first thought is Asian or Indian.
Bert Kreischer
Oh, not Indian.
Ari Shafir
Why not Indian?
Bert Kreischer
I was. I just. I don't. I don't. I don't know. I just. Now that didn't even register to me.
Tom Segura
You're not going to consider them?
Bert Kreischer
Nope.
Ari Shafir
Put them on the maybes.
Bert Kreischer
No.
Tom Segura
Yeah, but that actually sounds racist.
Ari Shafir
Yeah, why not?
Bert Kreischer
No, no, no, I'm not killing them. That's actually a positive thing.
Tom Segura
But wait, why can't they get their consideration to be killed?
Bert Kreischer
Okay, well, I just. I don't know. I'm actually really attracted to Indian women. Okay, well, so, like, I wouldn't want to kill them because I find them.
Ari Shafir
Attractive, but a gross one, like mid one.
Bert Kreischer
Like who?
Ari Shafir
Zarna Garg.
Bert Kreischer
Is that a real person?
Ari Shafir
Yeah, she's a comedian.
Tom Segura
When you kill. Would you kill somebody like that if you were going to kill a woman? Let's just say you're living out your. So you're going to.
Ari Shafir
There's Zaragar. You wouldn't kill someone look like that?
Tom Segura
Oh, boy.
Bert Kreischer
No, I wouldn't kill Zarnagarg. I still think they're hot as. Okay, keep going. Okay.
Tom Segura
Okay, here's your fantasy. It's to kill a woman. Do you want to see life leave her eyes or do you want her to be asleep and just like you hit her in the head with a hammer or something?
Ari Shafir
Do you want to be touching them while they like.
Tom Segura
You want to see it. You want to go.
Ari Shafir
You want to see the eyes start to.
Bert Kreischer
Obviously this is all hypothetical. I would probably edge it a little bit.
Ari Shafir
Let him back.
Tom Segura
That's. That's pretty evil.
Ari Shafir
And then you're one step from a dungeon.
Bert Kreischer
If I'm gonna kill one person, I want to kill them a couple times.
Tom Segura
That's what that guy did.
Ari Shafir
Cleveland?
Tom Segura
No, Rodney Alcala. He would. He would do, like, choke them out and then right before they died, he would let go and have them, like, come back and then do it, you know?
Bert Kreischer
Do you know which one? Do you ever hear the one?
Tom Segura
Yeah, it's pretty.
Bert Kreischer
Do you ever hear the one who's.
Ari Shafir
Way to get all the meat out of the buffal?
Tom Segura
I know, right?
Bert Kreischer
Do you ever hear the one who's the one with the scuba suit and they thought the girl was lying. She took her to the fucking cabin. Hers on Netflix.
Tom Segura
Oh, yeah, the American Nightmare.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah, you Know what he did a couple times is he got in, he almost killed them, and then he stopped and said, I don't want to do this. I'm really sorry. You need to get a dog and then leave.
Ari Shafir
You need to get a dog to bark if someone comes.
Bert Kreischer
Is that not insane? That.
Tom Segura
That comm. That comedian that. That cop. That was women in. I think it was either Baton Rouge or Lafayette, maybe. Lafayette.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Tom Segura
He would tell women. He's like, you. Like, he. When he was done. When he was done, he'd be like, you know, this window's not secure, and you should really, like, have locks, and you really should get, like, a better security system for your house, like, as advice on the way. And they were like, cool. Thanks.
Ari Shafir
Wow. Yeah. One of the guys worked for adt. One of the btk. Yeah, the BTK Killer.
Bert Kreischer
He worked for adt.
Tom Segura
Yeah. He would set up your alarm system.
Ari Shafir
System, and he would scope out, too. He's like, oh, I'll be back here next week.
Bert Kreischer
This is a good one. I want. It's got to be so freeing to be a murderer.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
She's like, you don't get angry in traffic. Like, if someone cuts you off, you're like, just gonna kill them. I'm gonna follow them home and murder them.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
And be like, I'll get you later. And then if you forget, you go hack. I got off, you know? Yeah.
Ari Shafir
But knowing you could is kind of, like, doing it, right.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah. It's like.
Tom Segura
Or like some confrontational. Someone's like, you, man. And you're just like, well, you don't know how this could go.
Ari Shafir
Yeah.
Bert Kreischer
Like, we went. We were in Vegas, and we sat down in, like, in, like, a couch, and the. With the girls in, like, in, like, near the bar, but in. On a couch. And I ordered a drink, and the lady said, Are they 21? And I said, no. She goes, you got to move to that couch. It was five feet over. What? She goes, you got. I can't let you sit here. And I was like, but what's the difference? Can they just sit in that couch? And they're like, no, you have to go with them. You're a parent. And I was like, so you know how to get up and walk five feet for some arbitrary rule in some magic line that I can't see? You can't see. No cop's gonna see. She's like, sir, wait.
Ari Shafir
And you wanted to kill her? Did I tell you I wanted to kill this lady?
Bert Kreischer
Hold on. I got a better one. I got a better one. I got a better one.
Ari Shafir
I don't want that one.
Bert Kreischer
Hold on, I got this better one.
Ari Shafir
We gotta come back to that.
Bert Kreischer
Tommy, did I tell you about. Did I tell you about the lady that wouldn't serve me at the airport?
Tom Segura
No. This is when you're thinking of serial killers, right now, this is one.
Bert Kreischer
Oh, this is.
Ari Shafir
You could just take care of it.
Bert Kreischer
When you're a serial killer, you don't get upset because you just go, I'll be back.
Ari Shafir
Yeah, right. What's your shift end?
Bert Kreischer
I get off. Yeah, I get off. Oh, so angry. And this goes back to Brianna, chicken fried.
Ari Shafir
I don't say her name.
Bert Kreischer
Say her name. Say her name.
Tom Segura
Okay.
Bert Kreischer
I get off the. I get off the plane in Nashville. I get a celebratory beer because I made it, I'm alive.
Tom Segura
You do a beer when you land.
Bert Kreischer
Let's not nitpick this story. Yes. Wait, when I land, I get a beer off the plane at the terminal. Yes. And I'll walk you through why this is the greatest thing you'll ever think. This is a life hack.
Ari Shafir
I have not. I usually get going.
Bert Kreischer
Yeah, well, you like to sit and wait for your bag, because I don't. I like to have a beer and let my bag come down and walk down when the sky caps like this up, I go, hey, man, that's mine. He goes, oh, where were you? I go, taking my time, I live my life. I drive. I drive my ship through the sea and I pick what wave I want to crash through.
Ari Shafir
Now that's Winston Churchill.
Bert Kreischer
Fuck yeah, that's it. I picked the waves full speed, damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead. So I get off the plane, I go to get a celebratory beer, and Pete's with me. And I said, yeah, can we get. Do you have Stella? She goes, no. And I went, okay, well, Pete's with me and Pete's. I'm grab. Go to the bathroom. Can you grab my beer?
Ari Shafir
No offer of what else they have.
Bert Kreischer
I said, she goes, no. And I said, I already hate her. And so I said, well, do you have any like. Any like Stella F. Cuz she goes, yeah. I said, great, I'll get two of those. She goes, I can only serve you one. And I said, well, no, my buddy just went to the bathroom. I go, I just. Never mind, I'll just take one. And then she goes, okay. And then I go, you know, he's gonna be back in a second, so you might want to just start pouring two. He's the guy you just saw. And she Goes, I can only serve you one. And I went, okay. And so she goes, I need to see your id. And I was like, I'm looking around now. What happens here? Little outside part of the story. Everyone at the bar recognizes me. Every single person at that bar is a dude who drinks, who's probably heard me say, never quit drinking. And they're all recognizing me, and they're coming over and getting pictures. Now, part of me likes this interaction because she knows whatever instance, whatever's happening is going to be okay. I'm a normal person. I give her my id, she hands back my id, and then she gives me a little sip of beer. Pete arrives at this moment, a little sip of beer. And I go, what's this? And she goes, this is what we have. That's like, stella, I said, oh, no, it's fine. I'll just take two of those. And she goes, you know what? I'm not comfortable serving you. What? And I went, excuse me. And now everyone stops. She goes, I'm not comfortable serving you. You make me uncomfortable. Now, you can go to the Brianna Chicken Fry, where you go out and you tell everyone in the world, or you can do the take the money and shut the fuck up. So what I did. And I was not proud of this. I'm not proud of this. And I wish I didn't do it. I wish I could go back and change life. As I said, I apologize if I made you uncomfortable. Anyway, I have two daughters that are roughly your age. I would never want a man to make them feel uncomfortable. I'll go on my way. And I tipped her 20 bucks. And she went, Excuse me. I said, Here's $20 for your trouble. I apologize. And I walked away. I was up at night screaming at the fucking pillow, going, you fucking. You fucking. And because that's what I wanted to do.
Tom Segura
Sure, but you took the higher road.
Bert Kreischer
I took the high road. But the high road sucks dick.
Ari Shafir
It sucks. Now here's her night. She's talking to some guy. How she attractive or not so much? Yeah, okay. She's talking to some guy or a friend. She's. How was work today? It was like. It was fine, but I've never played it as well. I just said, off. I'm not giving you a beer. And he just gave me 20 bucks.
Bert Kreischer
Do you know what she said? This is. This was even better. This is even better. Do you know everyone at the bar watched this happen? Everyone at the bar was like, what the fuck? I walked away. This is what upset me the most, is that she was. Someone goes, do you know who you just did that to? And they go, who? She goes, that's Bert Kreischer. Then she Googles me. And then she's got her own narrative because she's a.
Ari Shafir
He was a total asshole.
Bert Kreischer
I was a total asshole. I was. All the good stuff I did. None of that counts because she gets to tell her story. I was so angry.
Tom Segura
She. Do you think, though, that. What. When. The part where she goes, you make me uncomfortable is. It's probably when you were like, he's just went to the bathroom. He's gonna be right here.
Bert Kreischer
I didn't even say it like that, Tommy. I swear to God. My energy was like, what? Like more confused. Like, he.
Tom Segura
So was it that you got.
Bert Kreischer
You did something?
Tom Segura
She just.
Bert Kreischer
What was happening was dudes were recognizing me and they were get. And she was like, I think the energy changed in the bar when I showed up, and she couldn't place it. Didn't know who I was. But I. And I had two instances where that happened. I've had this where I took the high road and I said. I mean. And I just didn't say what I wanted to say.
Ari Shafir
Yeah, it'd be so nice to Patrice it and just be like, you.
Tom Segura
Yeah.
Ari Shafir
Give me. Your managers suck.
Bert Kreischer

Tom Segura
I didn't do anyone else working that bar.

New Year's Eve. I'll be there. I'm gonna stop. And I'm taking the same flight from la, and that same bar is going to be right there when I get right back.
Ari Shafir
I hope she says I'm still not comfortable.
Bert Kreischer
And you know what? I'm tipper. A hundred dollars. I'm gonna tip her a hundred dollars and I'm gonna start crying, and I'm gonna make her uncomfortable, and I'm gonna say that. I'm gonna say, you're the one that hit my mom.
