Bertcast # 500 - Jim Gaffigan & ME

[@irmazandl]

have never seen a podcast with Jim Gaffigan that I didn't LOVE. such a funny and totally wonderful guy. And he seems to bring out the best in all his hosts.

[@allyjay7395]

I love how Jim asks "now, why the 4 cheeseburgers?" As if there is any reasonable explanation. 🤣

[@Oldanarkybob]

Then he talked about 8 lol. 4 was just a gateway drug

[@alexnelson7986]

Brent Crystals tacos them 😂

[@sixkiller6]

“i know i’m gonna be bummed when i die” “well you’re not gonna be aware of it” “yeah and that’s what kills me” hahaha so great

[@ronnierodriguez5388]

I’ve met Jim at a five guys 😂😭 I was the cashier and took his order. Really nice, quiet guy. I didn’t wanna bother him, cause typically I don’t like doing that to celebrities. Love you Jim always been a big fan 💙

[@TeaSea-]

Cool

[@KevinKillaKam]

That's awesome

[@korbindallas8224]

I would ironically belt out "HOOot POckeEeeeets" in an overly dramatic way, and then he would hate me 👍

[@austincline]

What did he order

[@DarkDecimus]

I too have been thinking a lot about my age (45) and how that means I only have X years left...all the parameters of my age to X, like 65 is only 20 years. That's nothing. My thinking is most likely correlated with the mild heart attack 3yrs ago which was the first time I've questioned my mortality. It doesn't help that I'm at the age when celebrities I watched in my teens/twenties are starting to die....RIP Bob Saget. I feel you, Bert. It's just part of the human experience I believe. Love your content and congrats on 500, bro!!

[@jayjason2517]

Jim's reply to Bert's mock funeral idea. "No, that isn't narcissistic at all." lol.

[@TheComedyCurator]

54:36 - 55:48 - Your pal Rogan is no longer CURIOUS Bert - HE HAS CHANGED & there is no turning back

[@RushISVarietyB]

I was pretty damn nervous searching "Mcgangbang" 🤣🤣🤣. Had no idea that was a thing, so when Bert casually asked to pull up Mcgangbang, I almost passed out laughing!

[@karleneblaydes3534]

I love these two!! They are two of my favorite comedians, so good to watch them converse. It feeds my spirit. ❤️

Great conversation, thanks for having Jim on, he's one of my all time favorites. And Bert, you're pretty damn funny too. I especially enjoyed hearing about working on your comedy routines. Great podcast!

[@missmegan4052]

"Do you have any good memories of bacon?" Bert what the fuck 😂

[@WickedSpade]

Really nice of Jim to go to Bert's house to interview him...

[@kristine6324]

100% about therapy being for everyone. I 100% agree, therapy is for processing your thoughts and feelings and relationships. It's a self care way of caring for yourself weekly. It's wonderful.

[@rorypinsky7460]

Jim comparing our lack of COVID knowledge to wine is so funny and insightful

[@Laptopbabe]

"TACO THEM" BERT THATS NOT A THING LOL ARE YOU A 5TH GRADER LOL IM LOVING THIS

[@NathanKSmith]

"Do you have any great memories of bacon?" - Asking the important questions.

[@jc8380]

“I’ll tell you mine”. Of course you will Bert. 👍

[@randie5436]

I think people experience Covid differently. My mother died from it and I had to say good bye to her via Face Time,, while she was surrounded by doctors and nurses I didn’t know. She died alone without any family at her bedside. She did have a nurse with her I believe. That was how I said goodbye to her, face time while a stranger held an iPad or iPhone up to her. Only 7 people attended her funeral. So yes, some people are lucky and have mild cases, and survive and others go through terrible suffering and are on ventilators. I still after all this time, do not understand how people take it so lightly or act like it’s nothing.

[@kastiaskinner2683]

I am so sorry you both went through that..

[@randie5436]

Thank you for saying,,,

[@magnetmannenbannanen]

Love you Bert. thx for putting yourself and your fmily out here for us to wiew ,participate with and listen to. it means a lot now that we are in year 3 of the pandemic,.

[@magnetmannenbannanen]

Bert, i want to tell you a story about a really healty guy i knew. he only had 1 flaw in his diet, he loved salt. would pour salt on anything before eating it, then laugh it away as a "i sweat a lot " he had a heart attack at 52. died. but he was just like you , running and working out a lot. cut down on the bacon, thats just salt and fat.

[@LiterateDuck]

Jim is a real deal legend. No one can do what he does, let alone do it well. Long live Gaffigan.

[@k.c.simonsen2]

Bert, you are just such a great guy and your energy and your world has kept me company in this awful, lonely day I’m havin so I thought I’d share that with ya 👍🤘❤️

[@thetsuba]

"sorry i keep cutting you off" something that bert never hears.

[@wm6549]

[@TheTimmerall33]

Jim's podcast tour has been fantastic. I found out Jim's family is from my home town Springfield IL, a big small town.

[@marcoramos4873]

The Machine meal at McDonalds would be awesome. It comes with enough food to feed a family of 4.

[@greyforge27]

I like hearing that Bert is being mindful about his lifestyle and thinking about his habits. I really hope he can find a happy medium rather than continue burning himself out, just from the perspective of a podcast listener

[@jacked4121]

Watch the new 2 bears

[@Jaaaackjack]

What did he order?

[@JoshJr98]

Lol

[@marshallpowers3446]

In my experience the McGangbang varies by region. In Seattle they gave me a Big Mac with the middle bun replaced by a chicken patty. In Salt Lake I was offered 2 McDoubles and a McChicken. Boise must be super vanilla because I only got 1 McDouble and 1 McChicken like the good lord intended.

[@AgendaInMind]

LOL! Their vaccines failed. How hilarious they fell for the fraud.

[@NathanCline12-21]

In Pittsburgh it's when an Irish girl gets banged by guys from each neighborhood

[@MariaIsTotallyRad]

In Oregon there's also the "McDank" which is a mcdouble on top and a mcchicken on bottom sans one middle bun of course

[@RyanJinjer]

In Ontario/Quebec it's a Junior Chicken inside a McDouble. Keeps the price real low.

[@Crucialtaunt520]

I still think 2 bears racing should start at a local dirt track first it’s all the thing Bert likes it’s beer and hillbilly’s having a great time and some people take it serious and win lol

Great choice of guests for your "500th" episode!! Missed you in Portland. Unfortunately I couldn't afford it, I've been healing from surgeries on my leg for the past 5 months and haven't been able to work 😕

[@msoneill358]

I'm the same way I don't know how to make small portions when I cook. I cook for myself and my family and usually make something different for at least 1 of my kids. I'm trying to learn how to make smaller portions. Gin and Ginger ale is a nice low carb drink, it tastes good too.

its actually mind boggling what a true narcissist Bert is ... were talking like politician level, and yet we all seem to love him because of his positive demeanor lol

[@littlejohnnyconspiracytheo5315]

So true

[@cockyromano1606]

Seems to be more self aware of his mistakes then a true narcissist, most likely just very very low self esteem which is why he hasn’t changed his ways

I just found out today that Sebastian Maniscalco has a cooking show and I haven't stopped laughing. Bert is the king of cooking.

[@killerbee065]

Yo Berty boy, or Hallstead or anyone who can tell Bert, your irritability is likely due to the deficit living you describe. I did this months ago and it really worked for me: Next time you are getting upset, check your activity tracker working backwards from an increased heart rate incident. So your heart rate went up with extreme anxiety? Cool, track the day backwards using the journal and check sleep that night, stimulants you have had (caffeine which can increase anxiety and heart rate) and depressants (alcohol) and also sleep. It took me about 2 days to realize the booze was the biggest culprit for yours truly but caffeine did me in twice. It really doesnt take a lot of time to do and since you can go back weeks on your trackers, find a particularly bad day and work backwards from there since that data is just sitting there on your apple watch, whoop, or whatever. Much love and please watch "chasing bubbles" on youtube, this isnt an ad, but ol boy in that doc is JUST like Bert and he would get a kick out of it.

[@PLF...]

Love the way he said, "we have amazing lives" and "we have children" in two distinctly separate breaths

[@justinandoe349]

"History is filled with facts" haha! So true...

[@JeffNixonComedy]

Lol sort of. Its filled with the perceived facts of the those who were victorious over people who perceived facts differently...but are dead.

Congrats Jim and Bim

[@mcant17]

Oh boy, a new BruceCast, gotta love it

[@meepo262]

I have many bacon memories but I think my favorite is when I was a little kid and I went with my whole family to Shoney's, a restaurant with a breakfast buffet. I cant remember how old I was, but old enough to fix my own plate, and all I got from the buffet was a huge plate of bacon. My grandparent's were lightheartedly saying "you can't just eat a plate of bacon!" and I replied looking at their plates "you all got what you wanted and I got what I wanted!" Pretty good buffet argument for a 5 year old or so I have to say. They have never let me live it down.

[@AgendaInMind]

The Germ Theory was never actually proven to be 100% accurate, yet the trillion dollar medical industry is entirely based on that theory. What's the CAUSE of death in people with this "virus"? Does their brain explode? Does their heart stop beating? The CAUSE of death is still pneumonia. Pneumonia is not something you can "catch". You DEVELOP it, just like you develop cancer. It's a biological result of being "scared to death" of something. Think of it like an internal wound that you can't see, but when it starts to heal (when the traumatic event dissipates), the healing of the wounds in the lungs will cause pain, mucus, blood, fever, headaches, coughing, etc. You don't show the symptoms of "disease" until you stop being panicked and afraid. These symptoms usually show up 1-2 weeks after you've relaxed and resolved the upsetting event. Governments around the world are CAUSING fear frights, thus CAUSING all the illnesses, aka Boogey Virus, in everyone based on an unproven THEORY by one man, Louis Pastaur, who redacted his claim of the germ theory on his death bed, yet no one listened. The US is following an outdated theory that's 100 years old and has not questioned or retested that "science" since then. They believed In witches and curses back then!! Could it be because a Ca-Zillion dollar medical industry profits on following an outdated "science" model?! They've been using the same cancer "treatment" for 80 YEARS. They can't think of something besides POISON in all this time?!?! So of course, when everyone is allowed to escape the hostage situation the governments have put their people into, and they start relaxing about the "scary virus" that's not in any way transmissible, they will begin their healing phase (get sick), and believe they then have the "scary virus", and more panic will ensue as well as martial law. The longer people allow this government to hold them hostage in their homes, the more severe the "sickness" will be. Western Medicine is pure fraud, and people's lives are destroyed because of it.

A mcgangbang in Colorado is a hot’n’spicy a McDouble and a side of fries. You take the bottom buns off, taco them with fries and then stack the hot’n’spicy and the McDouble together top bums on the outside. Dipping it in ranch is also an option.

[@danielmelton7481]

Huntsville AL is a pretty unique place. I never thought I'd end up in, "Huntsville AL", it surprised me.

It'a a McDouble and a McChicken (spicy if available). You open up the McDouble between the two patties and put the entire McChicken, with the bun, on top of the McDouble bottom patty and put the top patty and bun back on top and that's the McGangbang. Secret time - Wendy's 99 cent menu makes the McGangbang 10 cents cheaper.
