Bert Kreischer: Secret Time

This was the second stand-up comedy I watched from Bert Kreischer. After The Machine (2016) which was a very pleasant discovery and that I also rated with nine stars I was curious if this next show would be as hilarious as the previous one. And hell yeah it was! He got me literally in tears a couple times. Bert Kreischer doesn't care what you think about him. With his shirtless "big" body he brings joke after joke, some very personal jokes, and he doesn't really mind to openly make fun of some of his hilarious life decisions. He's got it all to be an excellent comedian, his stage presence, his mimics, the well placed puns, it's all part of a great show. There are tons of stand-up comedians, lately with Netflix they seem to pop out like mushrooms, but Bert Kreischer stands out from the crowd. It's one of those shows you won't forget, one of those you recommend to friends. For the haters, as there always are with comedy, just stay far away from me as you clearly have no sense of humor at all.

The entire special is hilarious, definitely worth watching

Love Bert from his podcast and appearances but THIS! This was comedy!! HAHA!

Who finds this peurile, lazily constructed pap funny? Well, apparently people who have never seen good comedy before and given this garbage 9 and 10 out of 10 ratings. Kreischer's silly "secret time" announcements are a form of one-liner comedy so worn out that it literally felt like I was watching a 30 year old comedy special hosted by Louis Anderson or Stephen Wright but not nearly as funny given that Kreischer is the first to laugh at his own jokes half the time. Chappelle, CK, Seinfeld, Sykes, Silverman, Jeffries all have nothing to worry about in terms of competition from this twaddle spewing fraud who takes the lazy route, unable to craft any type of sophisticated joke and, instead, relies on being shirtless and relating unfunny personal anecdotes that he squeezes for all the forced chuckle juice he can extract that, while funny to him, inspires nothing but a kind of Inquirer-esque titillation from his "I'm-here-for-a-comedy-special-so-I'm-gonna-laugh-dammit" audience. He is, however, laughing all the way to the bank because the societal bar is so low right now or the state of worldly affairs is so traumatizing, there is no end to people who desperately want to find hilarity where there is none. What a disappointment.

Bert is the man and delivered on his Netflix debut. Kinda bummed he didn't share the Russian I'm the machine story but nonetheless it was top notch comedy.
