We Might Be Drunk

Ep: 268 - Bert Kreischer

This week on We Might Be Drunk, hosts Mark Normand and Sam Morril sit down with Bert Kreischer for one of the most unfiltered conversations yet. Bert comes in full force talking about life on the road, balancing family and fame, and the grind of building a career in comedy. They dive into touring, getting recognized everywhere you go, the comedy mindset, and the heat behind shooting new material at scale. Bert opens up about his Netflix series Free Bert and how the show pushed him into both ridiculous and reflective moments. He also gets real about recent changes in his life, how he approaches comedy at this stage, and what keeps him going when the stakes get high. Mark and Sam bring their signature raw style, pushing back, laughing hard, and finding the funniest corners of every topic. This is one of those episodes that captures exactly why Bert is one of comedy’s biggest personalities.

Ep 265: No Guest - Mark Normand & Sam Morril

No guest this week, but Mark and Sam cover it all: martinis and why they secretly destroy you, Carnegie Hall nerves, IV recovery, casino gigs, and traveling with Shane Gillis. Mark talks hooping with Adam Sandler, run-ins with Seinfeld, and the pressure of performing with comedy legends in the crowd. The guys unload a massive stack of pet peeves, from tall sandwiches and bad dating profiles to browser glitches, password resets, airplane etiquette, and inconsiderate New Yorkers. They also dive deep into the Diddy documentary, celebrity power, old-school movies, inspiration hitting at the worst times, and why being single rules until Sunday night.
