American stand-up comedian, actor and reality TV star Bert ‘The Machine’ Kreischer is returning to Australia with a brand-new show.
Bert has become an award-winning entertainment juggernaut, and master of virtually every medium he tackles. He revolutionised live comedy performances with 2020’s Hot Summer Nights tour of drive-ins, and he boasts two of the most popular comedy podcasts in the world: ‘Bertcast’ and ‘2 Bears 1 Cave’.
He also stars in his own Netflix show ‘The Cabin With Bert Kreischer’, and hosts ‘The Go Big Show’ on TBS alongside celebrity judges T-Pain, Rosario Dawson, Jennifer Nettles, and Cody Rhodes.
Bert’s stand-up comedy origins are just as unique as his brand of comedy itself. The Tampa FL native first burst into the public eye when Rolling Stone magazine published a major feature article on him in 1997 as the ‘number one partier in the nation’ during his sixth year of college at Florida State University. It lit a bulb in Bert’s imagination, that stand-up might be the career choice he had yet to make, for when he left college. . . And a way to continue his genuine love for partying, into adulthood.
“Afterwards, I called my Dad and said, this is what I’m going to do for the rest of my life. I got to be every part of me that I like being and everyone enjoyed it,” Bert says.
“Everything about me is trying to be authentically in the moment and of the essence,” he concludes.
“I just started doing stuff that I found fun. I found enough confidence in myself to go, ‘I got here doing what I wanted and what I loved. I’m just going to do what I love and not let people tell me what I should be doing.”
