Bert Kreischer is one of the great American wild men. A gonzo warrior driven not by cynicism or a desire to reveal dark truths but instead by a deep, almost essential, need to have a good time--no matter what.

Why see Bert Kreischer?
BERT BERT BERT!
One-man comedy tornado Bert Kreischer first caught the attention of the comedy world when he was featured in a Rolling Stone article in 1997 for his student party antics. Realizing his penchant for storytelling and making people laugh as a consequence, Kreischer honed his stand-up chops and later became a regular on TV in his own shows Bert The Conquerer, Hurt Bert and The X Show, as well as stints on the Late Show with David Letterman, Jimmy Kimmel and Conan.
Kreischer is perhaps best known for telling fantastical stories without a shirt on. Nicknamed 'The Machine', his wild tale about how he earned the name while entangled with the Russian Mafia is the stuff of legend and has become one of his most popular stories. Others include wrestling with a bear and swimming with sharks on national television. Really, we couldn't make this stuff up...
