Bert opens by describing a surreal phenomenon: Bad Thoughts Season 2 is dominating Black social media, with viewers filming their TVs and sharing clips saying 'y'all got to watch this crazy shit,' often without knowing who Bert even is. [1] — Bert Kreischer "Bad Thoughts Season 2 is dominating Black social media — and Bert Kreischer didn't see it coming. Fans are filming their TVs and saying 'I …" 00:14 He frames this as a perfect illustration of his creative philosophy — you make something, throw it out there, and whoever responds, responds — it's entirely out of your control. Tom congratulates Bert on topping charts for weeks and points out the remarkable feat of Season 2 outperforming Season 1 despite being made in half the time: just 2 months of post-production versus 6. The mood turns mock-sour when Tom reveals he only discovered at 3am — while getting up to urinate — that Shane Gillis, who praised Bert's work, never once acknowledged Tom's own TV show. Tom notes he's known Shane longer and considers himself closer, yet Shane offered only vague 'acting coaching' when Tom was going into production. Robert Kelly also comes up as another no-show on the congratulations front. The segment is a masterclass in comedy-world social politics delivered with complete earnestness.
Bad Thoughts Season 2 is dominating Black social media — and Bert Kreischer didn't see it coming. Fans are filming their TVs and saying 'I don't remember old boy's name but y'all got to watch this shit,' which Bert calls a perfect illustration of his philosophy: you throw creative work out there, and you have zero control over who responds.
Bad Thoughts Season 2 went viral primarily among Black audiences online, with viewers sharing clips saying 'y'all got to watch this shit' without even knowing Bert's name.

Bad Thoughts Season 2 was edited in just two months — half the time of Season 1. Bert credits the post team and directors entirely, calling the schedule 'insane.' The payoff: the season is outperforming the first, which Tom says is virtually unheard of.
Bert Kreischer said hearing from a fellow comedian about your comedy output feels like hearing from 10,000 regular fans.
A broken pipe turned the Bad Friends studio into a hydrogen sulfide chamber. The crew denied smelling anything — which, as Andrew pointed out, makes their home lives deeply suspicious.
At a childhood sleepover in Sacramento, Bobby Lee's friends drew penises all over his face while he slept. He woke up, cried, and walked 7 miles down a dirt road before Eric Purvis's mom drove out to retrieve him.
On KSI's Make Me Laugh show, Bobby Lee got slapped so hard he fell and briefly blacked out — 5 minutes into the event. The rule was to use a tortilla, but the contestant used his bare hand instead.
What starts as a riff on Amber Alerts turns into an elaborate Speed remake: Bobby is a Hollywood tour guide whose bus shares a route with a kidnapper's identical bus, there's a bomb on board, and Keanu Reeves needs to be called immediately.
Their producer riffs a conspiracy theory about Lindsey Graham's death in Kyiv, which somehow leads to Bobby and Andrew discovering that every lyric of 'A Whole New World' from Aladdin secretly describes 9/11. They are disturbingly convincing.
Bobby Lee woke up Saturday morning to find three children splashing in his pool, along with a professionally hired swimming teacher — all arranged by friends who have keys to his house. His response: 'There's just too much joy here.'
Harold Ramis told a story about Caddyshack's cast doing drugs all day and night during Florida storm delays, with half their pay going to cocaine. Bobby Lee immediately wants to make that exact movie — and offers to relapse to do it.
Robby Hoffman had never heard of 'new towels.' A towel, in her world, was built with the house. When Sarah Silverman announced she'd bought new pool towels, it was a class-gap revelation.
Will Arnett pitched the perfect rich-person home for Robby: seven-hundred-thread-count sheets and brand-new towels — but a tiny, wrecked kitchen with a coil stove, chips, and Sprite. Best of both worlds.
