There's something to be said about the fact that the more accessible Shane becomes (his relationship dynamic with McCusker, Phil, his Mom, his sister, etc.) the more we like him and see his authenticity. The more we see of Bert and his relationship dynamic with his wife and kids the more we feel bad for them and loathe him for his absolute inability to think of anyone but himself. To add, we see the way they have grown and developed with mutual friends, ie, Mark Normand, Theo, and we can all see what effect each of them has on those guys and Bert makes everyone who is even remotely grounded and real, totally uncomfortable. Or he becomes such an easy target he demands that they go against their own authenticity in NOT ripping on him in this sort of coerced way in which they're forced to protect Bert from himself and their own insults just because Bert moves with an air of almost threatening fame currency. Dude just brings people down lol. Great analysis and great vid! Gotta sub from me!

Yea. I saw an old clip of Bert on a podcast literally crying about how much of an absent father he's been. And most of the comments were "Oh, he's such a good dad, he loves his kids so much!". I was like "are we listening to the same thing?" He's sold his soul to be in the cool kids club. He has millions. He could quit right now and not be an absent father... but getting to go to the cool kid parties, and be a raging alcoholic, is more important than being there for his kids. I get if someone has to work 60 hours per week to support their family, and doesn't get to see their kids as much. That's a father sacrificing to provide. But when you have millions, and you continue to do it anyway... Now you're just putting more money/influence/partying or whatever "benefit" you get from it over your family.

Beautiful Dogs convinced me that Shane cares deeply about the things he jokes about. He’s kind, compassionate, and empathetic. His ability to put himself in the shoes of the people around him is precisely why so many folks take his jokes so well. Because he’s laughing with you, not at you. And in doing so, inviting the audience to not only laugh along side you, but understand you as well.

Ive disliked him for so long and cannot believe it's taken this long for the backlash to come for him Also, in the video he says "I think Bert needs therapy".

Shane is the perfect example of the right person becoming famous at the right time (Matt should fit in there aswell).

So many people get famous young, or were brought up surrounded by fame and it shapes a lot of their personality, or get famous for the wrong reasons like a select few short clips that blew up (and the rest of their shtick being mediocre). Shane actually has a significant body of work literally just doing what he loved and was already in his 30s when he really took off.
