Bert Kreischer’s career has evolved from Rolling Stone’s infamous “Number One Partier in the Nation” to one of the top-grossing stand-up comedians in the world—and a powerhouse entrepreneur, content creator, and entertainment brand. Named by Forbes as “one of the best storytellers of his generation,” Kreischer has parlayed his signature comedy and authenticity into a dynamic media empire. In 2024, he landed the #6 highest-grossing comedy tour worldwide—despite performing only six months out of the year.

His sixth Netflix special, Lucky, filmed in his hometown of Tampa, FL, sold out all six shows within 24 hours of the on-sale and premiered in Netflix’s Top 10 Most Watched TV Shows in March 2025.

Kreischer’s 2023 special Razzle Dazzle reached over 8.3 million views in its debut week, continuing the success of his previous specials: Hey Big Boy, Secret Time, The Machine, and Comfortably Dumb.

As an entrepreneur, Kreischer has built an impressive portfolio of ventures. In 2022, he and LeeAnn Kreischer launched Berty Boy Productions, the content hub behind his extensive podcast and digital media universe—including Bertcast, Wife of the Party, Something’s Burning, and the massive Fully Loaded Comedy Festival.

Bertcast has become the flagship of Kreischer’s media presence. Known for its unfiltered, longform conversations, the show regularly features high-profile guests from the worlds of entertainment and sports. With hundreds of episodes and millions of downloads, Bertcast continues to attract fans for its humor, honesty, and behind-the-scenes stories. His YouTube series Something’s Burning has surpassed 54.76 million views, while his other podcast 2 Bears, 1 Cave (co-hosted with Tom Segura) consistently ranks in the top 10 globally. Across platforms, Kreischer commands over 16.8 million fans, with 4 billion impressions and 308 million views on YouTube.

Kreischer also founded the Fully Loaded Comedy Festival, a national touring juggernaut that in 2024 expanded to iconic ballparks, arenas, and even the high seas with a sold-out cruise. The festival features top-tier comics and surprise guests like Jelly Roll and Marcus King—and even broke Kid Rock’s long-held record for alcohol sales at sea.

In May 2025, Kreischer and Segura hosted their second annual 2 Bears 5K fan event at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, joined by special co-host Jelly Roll. The event drew over 7,200 participants—including Jason Kelce, members of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and Jelly Roll’s band—and sold out of both drinks and merchandise, thanks to sponsors Garage Beer and Por Osos. During the event, Kreischer won a stein-holding contest against several Tampa Bay Buccaneers. This followed the success of the inaugural 2B5K, held at the iconic Rose Bowl in Pasadena in conjunction with the Netflix is a Joke Festival, which also attracted thousands of runners, including Travis Barker of Blink-182.

His athletic antics have become part of his public persona, from spontaneous challenges such as bench pressing 325 in front of Jason Kelce, on a bet with Taylor Lewan and Will Compton of Bussin’ with the Boys, to his unforgettable appearance on WWE Raw. He even won a hand slap contest against Tyreek Hill at his Super Bowl show, further cementing his status as a fan-favorite entertainer who blurs the line between comedy and chaos.

In 2024, Kreischer and Segura launched Por Osos Vodka, a bold entry into the spirits industry that has quickly become one of the most talked-about celebrity-founded alcohol brands. Praised for its award-winning taste and premium distillation, Por Osos blends authentic craftsmanship with Kreischer and Segura’s distinct personalities, delivering a brand that’s both high-quality and fan-centric. Por Osos is now distributed in major retailers across Texas, Florida, California, Arizona, New Jersey, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Illinois with expansion into seven more markets planned by the end of 2025. The vodka has gained traction not only with fans, but also with bartenders and beverage critics, helping cement Kreischer’s reputation as a serious player in the consumer products space. Por Osos is also a key sponsor of their annual 2 Bears 5Kevents, helping turn Kreischer and Segura’s live experiences into full-scale branded activations.

Kreischer also starred in and produced Sony Pictures’ The Machine—a feature film adaptation of his legendary stand-up story—which broke into Netflix’s Global Top 10 Films upon release in 2023.

Most recently, Kreischer will star in the upcoming Netflix’s six-episode comedy series Free Bert alongside Arden Myrin and newcomer Lilou Lang and will also serve as co-creator, executive producer. Additionally, Kreischer will star in the original comedy film Homecoming directed by Tag filmmaker Jeff Tomsic and produced by Monarch Media.

With his new Permission To Party World Tour launching fall 2025, Kreischer continues to blend comedy, business, and culture into one of the most recognizable personal brands in entertainment today.
