Bert Kreischer | The Blocks Podcast w/ Neal Brennan | EPISODE TWO

[@lynno1974]

This is my favourite Bert interview. Shirt on. Still laughing. But also getting down to it. Neal's the new comedian's therapist....bringing it all out

[@codypickell9299]

It's similar to 'The Honeydew'. I would love to see Bert on there. Uncle Joey has an entire series lol

[@murkwell17]

You need to check out Ryan Sicklers honeydew pod. HILARIOUS and also some of the deepest, craziest stories you'll ever hear. So good I had to comment to a random person on KZbin lol

Neal's reactions to Bert's reality is worth the candle alone...

[@julioenrique8552]

How much is a candle worth?

[@AtmanBrahman]

@@julioenrique8552 Ah. It’s a spin on an old gambling phrase, “The game was not worth the candle,” from when they used to play cards by candlelight. Basically saying that wasn’t wasting a candle for. This episode is worth a candelabra at least.

[@cmgordon12345]

27:35 "this is fantastic"

[@Herfinnur]

@@AtmanBrahman that's a great phrase!

[@Js-hu5cm]

This is literally the absolute best interview of Bert. He really is being human here, extremely relatable and sharing funny stuff. Yeah man, keep it up Bert. 🎉

[@RoadDogsComedy]

Neal has a way of doing deep convo while still allowing himself and his guests to keep us laughing!

[@GOATDOG]

I absolutely love the vulnerability & honesty that Neal himself shares & manages to pull out of other such larger than life comedy titans. It's so refreshing to have a podcast host explore deeper areas of our favorite comedians personalities, it really makes them feel that much more human, and it makes me like them so much more.

[@AgendaInMind]

I don’t like Tom Seguras podcast. I don’t get sick, gross humor. Just humor.

[@turnpikenorth]

I get your point, but Bert and Letterman are also the perfect guests for him to have these conversations with

[@yogibagel9004]

yeah, Neal is making points that i haven’t heard anyone say yet it’s great

[@HH-gv8mx]

I don’t really know who Tom Segura is. Is he BERT’s best friend? I always hear their names together,@@AgendaInMind

Howwww Neal Feel?

[@geeoffchin]

Its so interesting to see Neal and Berts dynamic. Its such the opposite to Tom and Bert together (not that its a bad thing). Neal almost has this calming affect with the people he talks to.

[@Carapsych]

Cause Neal is not a narcissist

[@HH-gv8mx]

Are Tom Segura and BERT best friends or something? I always hear their names together.

[@NickTwohig]

Let's please give a huge round of applause for whoever edited this. Becuase I know Bert's cadence. And the editor literally saved us from a metric fuck ton of random tangents that went absolutely nowhere. Tom?

[@NickTwohig]

Also, I'm half way through and Neil is like Jane Goodall in the mist on this. I've never seen Bert so focused.

[@preacherman303]

Bert's kindness is so refreshing.

[@HH-gv8mx]

I love his LOVE for his wife.

[@GOATDOG]

There were so many great moments in this episode. I saw the first Blocks episode and the Lettermen part in this one literally made me cry. The Barry Katz advice about how much Bert overestimated how much other people were thinking about him, we could all learn from that. But I'm not exaggerating when I sat that this was the best podcast I've ever watched. I can totally picture Bert on his deathbed Neal in his cape finishing on his face saying "Aloha Bert." The Hawaii of comedy Bert Kreischer!!!

[@jayg1314]

Neal might be the greatest producer of comedy content of all time. The stuff he does, directs, and produces is historic. Gotta give him his flowers now!

[@treignsinblood]

Neal is awesome!! glad to see him back in the podcast world

[@notoriouslybratty]

Neal just summed up what I love about Bert. He IS ‘endlessly weird’ and I can relate to being a little off from everyone else.

[@theapostrophewrecks3589]

I agree that this was the best Bert podcast ever. From the second Neil called him ‘so weird’ I knew it was different. It was observation not judgment. I was in…bravo! But now I need to know the comic on 2bears and who’s the female comic who called him a parlour trick…

[@B-Nice]

These Neil Blocks Podcasts have been amazing. I miss How Neil Feel, and these have been hitting the spot!! I thought 3 Mics would've been hard to beat, but Blocks is beautiful!!!

[@willpross6706]

I never would of thought Bart and Noel would be a great fit but they are so good together. Keep on keeping on gents.

[@chilljackson577]

The chemistry in this interview is palpable. Bert’s openness and vulnerability set against Neal’s, Barbara’s Walters style level investigative journalism. True art. Could use a few more ads in my opinion.

[@ethanzlimen4501]

These two episodes have been extremely compelling. Great work neal

[@rodney466]

I once read a quote somewhere that I think bert would love "No one loves you unconditionally like your spouse. They love you for no reason but your parents love you cause your their child, and your children love you cause you're there parent. So there is no one in the world that's loves you more than a spouse."

[@sammcclain129]

I'm a simple man. I see Neal post and I click. 👍

[@MatthewMcNutt252]

I've watched endless hours of podcasts. Started listening to Carolla and then Rogan back in like 2009? This ranks up there with one of my favorites of all time. Bert and Neal are great. As mentioned at the end, their energies just mesh really well. Neal isn't afraid to ask the "taboo" topics and Bert sure as hell ain't afraid to touch any topic. Excited to see who the next guest is.

[@TheWangful]

I can feel the edits ❤❤❤ much love to you and your new channel

[@Topher3460]

This was the longest 1 hour 25 minute podcast ever....in a good way. They talked about so much. Loved it

[@jeffbroemmel8003]

I love how Neal just turns to the camera and gives us a look. Cracked me up. Great episode.

[@paigecallaway5296]

I couldn't sleep, so I turned on this podcast that KZbin had been pushing to me for a few days. Usually, insomnia sucks, but I really gained something from this. It was really incredible to listen to Bert be so vulnerable, and he gave some insight that I'll use in my life going forward. Neal seems to be a great interviewer too.

[@hoop416]

Bert & Neal just made this guy's day!! Neal...love this podcast and all you do...thank you!!

[@ostrichman]

love the fact that bert has listened to that voicemail so many times he mouths the beginning of it to himself while listening to it.

[@TheGeorgeous]

Great to see you do this Neal, you have an interesting perspective.

[@itmeurdad]

"A girl who treats their body very publicly, I'm not that guy." - Guy with multiple full length topless standup performances I can already tell, he's gonna be on another level this one. Ask Bert for introspection and you'll get nothing but projection. Classic.

[@Js-hu5cm]

This is spot on

[@HH-gv8mx]

Bert is not very cerebral. But I love his love for his wife.

[@vids595]

He clearly meant private parts/aspect of the body. A man shirtless is not being a slut.

[@pretzelhunt]

@@vids595 a topless woman isnt sleeping with multiple men either.

[@evandercaldwell9993]

I think a lot of people are taking someone like Bert for granted!! He's such a kind Soul and a good friend/husband/father! I very much appreciate his innocence and pure unfiltered way of communicating and also how much he FULLY enjoys Life! This is a role model for me! What he said about 'cuddling life not just penetrating life constantly' was a very deep statement!!

[@michaelkirk9982]

Agreed! The “Machine” thing and the shirtless thing make people underestimate him but he is so warm and vulnerable and reflective.

[@evandercaldwell9993]

@@michaelkirk9982 Yes indeed!! He is a kind Soul!!

I've been working my way through all these videos; this is becoming one of my favorite podcasts. I can't get enough. Please keep it going, Neal.

[@shaunbunker4240]

Loving it that Neal is getting involved with the podcast mafia lately. He's a great yin to Berts maniacal yang in this EP...

“A girl that treats her body very publicly, I’m not that guy” proceeds to take shirt off on stage. LOVE YOU BERTY BOY

[@aki42]

"nobody gave a f*** about their bodies" bert precedes to treat his body like an old can of ravioli

[@dt-hf8vz]

literally said HOLD THE FUCK UP out loud. that motherfucker absoooooolutely uses his body very publicly

[@michaelcole8999]

I'm more concerned with him treating his feet publicly. I found one type of person that Bert and Tom don't hate equally. Maybe about the random comic or even just stereotype, but we already know Bert loves himself. This was all to say it seems like something Tom or Christina would comment on if they had seen anything from this podcast.

[@teejay5157]

It's different tho

[@joshjordan8529]

In his defense, he did it once and people loved it! Now he’s trapped into doing it for fear of losing his audience. Tough spot, but probably the same spot these ladies find themselves in. Weird world!

[@rawpower12xu]

1:01:36 I think it’s kind of innocent how Bert mouths “Letterman” when David Letterman is saying his name on the message, he’s so excited 😂

[@carolesmith112]

Neal… you asked some great questions. I learned more about Bert during your podcast Then all the other podcasts I’ve seen him on including two Bears one Cave. I used to like Bert; now I absolutely adore him. He is so honest and vulnerable and sweet.

[@johncedeno1143]

Awesome interview the more I watch Bert the more I realize how truly insane he really is. But his big heart does always come through.

Bert is gold on every podcast and this was phenomenal as well. People couldn’t ask for a better guest.

[@slicksimmons]

I heard this in Bert's voice

[@noneyabidniss4763]

.... uhhhh I think there is plenty of room for arguement there. He seems like a fun dude to be around but he's all exaggeration and interruption. It'd get old pretty quick.

[@tenplex]

@@noneyabidniss4763 I’m talking comedy podcast guest, not day to day life. Although I’m sure he is different in real life. He is gold for any host. Host says a few words and Bert just runs loose. Host can sit back while he tells crazy exaggerated stories. I thought Neal was able to get out most of what he wanted and was able to steer.

[@cactaceous]

I’m actually tapping out of this one early. It’s just exhausting listening to a textbook narcissist just go on and on. I tried watching 2 Bears 1 Cave and now only watch when it’s just Segura and a guest.

[@codypickell9299]

I wasnt sure if I'd like Blocks... I was immediately hooked. 👌

Great podcast. Like many others have already mentioned, your personalities play well off each other. This is the first I’ve watched/listened to with Neal as host, and it’s a good fit. Had seen his guest appearances promoting the new special, and judging by how well those went, he brings that same comedic dry wit in this. Looking forward to future episodes.

[@wfedda]

Words can't describe how these 2 make me feel but here is my attempt... Been a huge fan for many many years and comedy aside cause it's clear they are on top of their game, these 2 are seriously the most genuine, humble and kind hearted comedians I ever watched. I love their how open and honest they are about themselves and their lives. These open discussions they have on podcasts are the reason I fall in love with them even more. There are many great comedians out there but the difference is some of those comedians seem like they would be shitty people in real life, but these 2 would be an unbelievable hang purely because they seem like they have the biggest hearts. On another note, I relate so much to Burt when he gets emotional about being a father and his kids growing up, I am always so moved and touched cause I am the exact same way. Love this podcast!!!
