Bert Kreischer, host of the "Bertcast" comedy podcast, and guest Big Jay Oakerson discussed the misconceptions surrounding the "Legion of Skanks" podcast. Bert mentioned how some critics had gone so far as to label Jay, who is JEWISH, as a Nazi. Jay humorously pointed out the irony of the situation, stating that even if he wanted to join the Nazis, his Jewish background would most likely pose an immediate problem. Both comedians found it absurd that people continued to use such baseless and extreme labels, despite the clear contradictions in their claims.

On a recent episode of the "Whiskey Ginger" podcast, host Andrew Santino and guest Jimmy Carr shared a story about a notoriously difficult guest performer, who wouldn't be named. Santino narrated the story without revealing the performer's identity, describing how the guest demanded a catwalk be built for their performance. When the stagehand explained that there was no room for a catwalk, the performer threatened to leave town and cancel the gigs unless his demand was met.

Charlemagne joined Andrew Schulz In an episode of the "Flagrant" podcast, where shared a childhood story. Charlemagne recounted owning a red toy tractor with a small farmer figure riding on top. He claimed that the farmer would come to life in his imagination and talk to him when he was alone. Despite telling his mom about the bizarre encounters, she dismissed his stories.

On an episode of the "Your Mom's House" podcast, hosts Christina P. and Tom Segura, along with guest Duncan Trussell, pondered the often unaddressed aspects of life on the International Space Station. Christina wondered about seemingly mundane tasks such as burping, barfing, defecating, and masturbating in space with zero gravity. This led to a lighthearted speculation about the potential consequences of floating particles of ejaculate, potentially interfering with equipment or operations. The conversation took a comedic turn as they jokingly pondered whether such incidents could have caused the Challenger disaster.

The star-studded panel of this particular episode of the "Kill Tony" podcast, saw host Tony Hinchcliffe and guests Bert Kreischer and Jim Norton explore Korean Facebook.

One Church, Many Uses

Bert Kreischer and his wife, Leanne Kreischer were guests on an episode of the "Are You Garbage?" podcast, hosted by H. Foley and Kevin Ryan. The discussion began with a look into Leanne's rural Georgia upbringing, including her life on Dot Road where she was related to everyone. The road led to a community called Bugscuffle, which H. Foley joked was home to doctors. Leanne revealed that her family's land had a church dating back to 1840, where she and Bert got married. Both of her grandparents also attended school in that church. Jokingly, Bert thought the church could have been a one-stop-shop for everything in town, like a hospital and a swingers lounge.

In an episode of the "Tuesdays With Stories" podcast, co-host Joe List shared a story about fellow comedian and friend, Chris Distefano, who was once a physical therapist prior to becoming a comedian. Joe recalled playing basketball with Chris and a group of friends around 10 to 15 years ago. When someone in the group sprained their ankle, Chris stepped in as a physical therapist and offered up some advice on how to treat the injury.

Chris revealed that he received clarification from the band that they do indeed enjoy his comedy, especially after he mentioned them on Joe Rogan's podcast, "The Joe Rogan Experience." Bert, however, expressed skepticism, accusing The 1975 of changing their opinion to gain fame through Rogan's podcast. He argued that the band should have stayed true to their artist roots and maintained their dislike for Chris, like it was prior to the Rogan mention. In response, Chris joked that if the band had doubled down on their dislike for him, he would have been even more excited about it.

In an episode of the "Tigerbelly" podcast, guest Eddie Huang jokingly accused host Bobby Lee of sabotaging his guests' microphones to make them less funny than him. Eddie noticed that the microphone seemed to cut out every so often, making it difficult for guests to maintain their comedic timing and flow. He humorously compared it to speaking like rapper Ice Cube. Bobby Lee dismissed the accusation, telling Eddie to just speak normally.
