Bert Kreischer

Bert Kreischer is the shirtless maniac of stand-up comedy, and we mean that as the highest compliment. The man starts every show by ripping off his shirt, and from that moment on it's an hour of the most outrageous, high-energy, borderline-unbelievable stories you'll ever hear. If you've never seen him live, you have no idea what you're missing.

You probably know the Machine story. If you don't, Google it right now - it's the single greatest comedy story ever told on a stage, involving Bert, a college trip to Russia, and the Russian mafia. It went so viral that it became a movie. That's the level of storytelling we're talking about here. His stories are so wild that they sound made up, except they're all true, which makes them ten times funnier.

Live, Kreischer is pure chaos in the best way. He's laughing at his own jokes, he's sweating, he's running around the stage, and the audience is right there with him the whole time. The energy in the room is more like a party than a comedy show. People are screaming, people are standing up, and Bert is feeding off every second of it.

His podcast game is strong too - "2 Bears, 1 Cave" with Tom Segura and "Bertcast" have built him a fan base that shows up ready to party. The crowd at a Kreischer show is as much a part of the experience as the man himself.

If you want a comedy show that feels like the best night of your life, Bert Kreischer is your guy. Find tickets on Evil Tickets and prepare to go shirtless.
