I've been a big fan of Bert over the last 3 years discovering him after his succes from The Machine story and then consuming all of his original series of Something's Burning, his Podcasts with Tom short-lived Netflix show The Cabin and have always found him funny however he has really missed the mark here. From the opening knotted ass hair joke this special is lazy crude and unengaging. He covers info about his family for a new audience but for those who have followed him for years this is boring rehashed jokes about His wife being a redneck & his daughter being a bit slow. Zzzzzz. I guess it's true that when you lose the hunger of fame your art suffers and it really suffers here. Repetition and swearing does not equal comedy gold and makes me worry about the upcoming movie based on his Machine anecdote. It's by far the weakest special from that particular group of comic friends. If you want to see something we'll crafted and funny watch Andrew Santino's Cheeseburger and give this one a miss. It's not the end of Bert by any means as he will have continued success as a podcaster, TV presenter, movie star etc but maybe it should be the end of Bert the stand up. Give this one a miss.

I watched with my girlfriend (who found it funny ) but I think this humour is probably suited for young adults. Nothing memorable in this special. Not bashing Bert; I am a fan of him. I hope we see some more sharper angles from him in the future ? One of the problems is a lot of people tune into his podcast with Tom, which is amazing . People eventually expect your comedy level to be more crisp and smoother as your podcast. It's kind of like watching your favourite baseball player hitting .300 and cranking 40 homers , and then the next season only hitting 20 (which is fine) but not to the level we expect.

I've always been more of a Tom Segura fan and have always felt Bert to be mildly funny, but this special is off the charts hilarious. Truly really great standup, I have not laughed this hard in a long long time. Bert deserves recognition for being a master of the art form at this point because this is his best work yet.

His delivery, transitions and almost all new material give the special room for him to spread his wings and get away from the (very funny) machine story. This special proves unequivocally that he is actually a legit standup act and not a one hit wonder. Also I love that he puts out fewer specials than saturating the market with one a year like a lot of other comedians. Well done Brent Chrysler.
