Would be lower if it wasnt Bert!
azbritton19 March 2020
I am a Huge Bert Kreischer and love his previous stand ups and his podcasts and most of his material. But this was definitely his not material by a far stretch. I was very disappointed and I'm sure he put his heart into like everything else but this one just missed the mark. Dont get me wrong it definitely had its funny parts but overall I just wasnt crazy and felt forced! Sorry to say but it is what it is. Heres to the next one Bert! 🍻

Pretty solid special, but not elite

Bert is one of my favorite podcast comedians, but his stand up isn't my favorite. This special has some great moments that I laughed really hard, but some of the stuff wasn't exactly my taste.

Not his best one but still funnier than a lot of other stand-up comedians.
deloudelouvain23 March 2020
This was the third show I watched from Bert Kreischer. After The Machine (2016) and Secret Time (2018) I had high hopes for this new show but even if I still had a lot of fun watching Hey Big Boy i have to admit his other shows were slightly better. He's still very funny though, certainly when he tells the stories with his kids Georgia and Ila. The ones with Ila are the funniest in my opinion. He's still performing shirtless, nice signature by the way, his jokes are still funny because of the way he tells and mimics them. You can't fault his stage presence, it's hilarious and adds to the comedy. Bert Kreischer is one of my favorite stand-up comedians, can't wait for his next performance.

Bert's best work yet!
lommcdonald25 March 2020
As Bert continuously gets better at his craft, he moves away from being a partying story teller and you realize just how good of a comic he is.

An R-rated version of "Everybody loves Raymond"
rorisshe24 June 2023
This is the first time I saw Bert Kreischer's stand-up.

I think Bert is very likable but is not a stand-up. He's a natural fool/idiot(in the best sense of the word). Bert is THE unusual other ppl/the audience are laughing AT rather than laughing WITH. I'd love to see Bert doing a silent movie/physical comedy 'cause Kreischer def has the chops. I think it's a high praise because most comedians need words to make ppl laugh. Bert is so naturally funny - he doesn't.

As for the special... "Hey Big Boy" is not my cup of tea. It describes many funny situations but overall those situations would be much funnier in a shape of a sketch of a sitcom.

Very very funny
kevingstoney18 March 2020
If you have a sense of humor that's the most I laughed in a long time watching stand up. I was even sober for it and had tears running down my face! Excellent job can't wait for more

Best story comedian around!
mcdsteve17 March 2020
This is as good, if not better than 'Secret Time!' This special is hilarious and shows Bert is one of the best stand ups going around. He certainly tells a story better than anyone. I watched this by myself and was laughing out loud constantly!

Meh
cbryant-9097218 March 2020
Let down. Been a fan of his for a long time. Have made the trip to see him in Atlanta. That being said i can be real about it and it wasn't his best content. It mediocre at best.

You can't recreate Third Reich
Sjust143 April 2020
The bast moment in this special is when he finds out that world wouldn't be great if Germany won WW2.

Nazi Germany lost WW2. Deal with that Bert!

Missed the target
andrewsfresh-9710724 March 2020
Bert has fallen out of touch with his core audience, he's aging and it isn't doing any good for his comedy. I'm a big fan that loves two bears one cave with Tom, and I love seeing Bert as a guest on podcasts but his stand-up routine is unrelatable to his core audience and this sadly missed the target.

Great
treeofolive18 March 2020
Great jokes & stories, no time wasted, but directing was a bit off, especially with Bert looking straight at the camera at times which made it super-weird, apart from that great work.

Bert is Awesome!
jigmechoku20 March 2020
This was very funny, I watched it in 2 halves and checked out half of Mark Maron's between. Bert's was a lot funnier for me, He's loveable and engaging and the humour is very relatable. I see Tom has a new special coming next week, see how that measures up. Tom is so fat.

Far from his best
hfairwood12 July 2020
I wanted to like this so much. I'm a fan of his other specials and his podcast work but just didn't enjoy this special.

Secret Time was better.
daniel-james-browne19 March 2020
This one is mediocre and I think he needs to take a break because he's gasping for jokes right now. Maybe its how the mic'd the theater but you can't hear the crowd engagement that much.

Funny but watered down
smokymcpot-7802620 March 2020
The first half of the show was pretty funny, but after that it started feeling a little boring, with very minimal laughable moments

I want to like him
GaryMassage19 March 2020
Turned off in the first 10 mins cause it just wasn't my thing. I'm sure other people like his comedy though. The joke about him being excited when black people recognize him was super cringey. That made me turn it off. And I can just hear yall saying, "it's comedy for a reason, he doesn't actually mean it". And I totally agree. And I'm aware it's just all subjective. I know Burt is a good dude. Watch for yourself to make your own judgment
