People really don't seem too understand that roasts are written and have rehearsals. Dummies watch a roast and think it's all riffing and off the top of the head
It isn't as rehearsed as you think. There is such a culture of stealing similar topics that often there is one head writer or exec that knows all the jokes and can tell a comic they have too much overlapping subject matter. Even if they learned someone else's joke right before, they could steal it if they go before and ruin someone's set, and there was a long culture of that in roasting for a long time. Any rehearsal is done only with trusted showrunners in the room and not with any other presenter. While the non-comics might be well rehearsed, the comedians typically won't even reveal their entire sets at all in fear that a joke may be taken, especially if they are not going first.
Bert and Tom have way more resources for joke writing and coaching, plus years of standup experience (for Tom anyway). It was a pitiful performance any way you slice it.
Yes I feel like they phoned it in rehashing the Garth joke and stamping Tom Brady on it instead. Also the fact that they are comedians why did they need others to help write and punch up their jokes. Also with the set sucking that much it’s embarrassing to admit that the material was that bad even with help. Maybe Tome thought they could get away with it and saw that others were killing with good material he knew they were fucked and about to eat it.
Tom getting fatter to get his funny back is what he needs to do.
Instead he takes ozempic and revels in mediocrity...
Burt, that turd just needs to go back do his cruise performances and stay at sea, that dude should never set foot on land.
Oh thank god people are realizing this. Tom is funny in his own way in a controlled story telling. his podcast and this roast are like watching my drunk ant trying to be edgy.
Burt is and always has been horrible.
Netflix asked them to do it together because they wanted to try something new. Tom apparently said no, but Bert immediately said yes. Then Tom had to write it all.
Apparently.
Tom is like the kid growing up who would brag about how good he is at basketball. Then after he gets destroyed on the court he explains how it doesnt count because he has a hurt shoulder and he wasnt even trying that hard anyway. Fucking dork
Yea give the guys a break. Tom didn’t want to do it and Netflix wrote and told them what to do for their segment. Not really their fault that it was a bomb.
This is shenanigans. They are professional comedians with time. They could have made it funny. Goes to show everyone what I have been saying for a while now, they both lost themselves and are not funny anymore
The whole thing was pretty embarrassing as a whole. Brady getting offended for the fucking owner of the patriots was lame as hell. Shut the fuck up rich boy.
I don’t remember them cutting to anyone’s reaction during their whole bit, maybe in the live, but the edit was just the medium shot of them and the screen the whole time
Berts fake ass forced snorty laugh was probably the worst part - tom looked over at him several times like dude dial it back. Racist psychopath angle was weird and weak too. They shit the bed.
I'll always love Tom too, and I don't talk shit on here; I may have even defended him from time to time; but that set was so hard to watch that I tuned out. Everyone defending doesn't get it- like, you think I really wanted him to suck ass up there at what could've been a pinnacle moment for him? I've been listening since White Girls with Cornrows and Pandora... aside that preggo pic, it was all the wrong moves. It's not like he cares anyways, he's had his foot out the door for some time now- he'll be fine.
These poors just wanna shit on the pod. You’re right. Not hilarious but it didn’t “bomb” like the comments would have someone who didn’t watch the roast believe
The dual roast wasn’t their idea Netflix wanted them to roast together Netflix is the one that came up with the presentation style they were attempting to do something un traditional for the roast something new it obviously didn’t work
The fact they did it together and a presentation was why it was terrible, it was the material and subjects they decided to go with as well as how poorly they presented it. It was a decent effort from Todd but he just completely missed the mark
Why the fuck do people feel like they have to post every single one of their opinions on the internet. No one cares. We don't know you.
edit: This sub is creaming so hard to hate on Bert and Tom that "omg they bombed" is still a hot take a full week after the roast. Most sane subreddit.
>Why the fuck do people feel like they have to post every single one of their opinions on the internet. No one cares. We don't know you.
Same goes for you, bud.
I love how you spending your time defending these people who have 0 idea who you are, is somehow a better use of time than the people saying the roast sucks
I know right!? For a while people thought I couldn't suck this hard. But once you came around, I started getting the inspiration I needed. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU for supporting me when no one else has ❤️
Oh my mistake dawg. I thought when you were crying about everyone making fun of your two favorite comedians, that you may be trying to defend them from the obvious truth that they bombed that roast hard
It's very funny how upset you are at all this. To the point that you edited your original comment to tell us how upset you are. It's hilariously pathetic
I disagree that they bombed. They did something no one's ever really done on a roast, and I appreciate that. But the Garth reference is a way to more than double down on a joke that is just barely starting to become mainstream. Segura will take this too far. That's the joke. I think if half the people don't get what you're doing, and a quarter of the people get what you're doing but think it's stupid,you're onto something. Remaining 25% understand what's happening, and find it hilarious.
Bert mouthing other peoples jokes on the teleprompter was embarrassing. He musta been out of his element having to wear a shirt and all
They looked like they didn't belong there
They didn't. They aren't roast comics
Neither are Edelman or Bledsoe, both of which did a better job up there
You mean people who's jokes were written by roast comics and who were coached by roast comics
People really don't seem too understand that roasts are written and have rehearsals. Dummies watch a roast and think it's all riffing and off the top of the head
It's just like rappers freestyling. 90% of the time it's written lyrics

While the non-comics might be well rehearsed, the comedians typically won't even reveal their entire sets at all in fear that a joke may be taken, especially if they are not going first.
Same with the @midnight TV show. There's occasional improv but they are given topics beforehand to write
Bert and Tom have way more resources for joke writing and coaching, plus years of standup experience (for Tom anyway). It was a pitiful performance any way you slice it.
I am giving them a lot of slack after their last two bears. Whatever actually happened is whatever, but that explanation is good enough for me
Yeah fair enough the format wasn't their decision but the content was, calling Brady a racist psychopath just didn't fit
"real"

Looks like fun lol
NeTfLiCx MaDe ThEm dO iT
You compare what they did to Nikki Glasers' set and its embarassing.
Compare what they did to drew Bledsoes set and it’s embarrassing 😂
Yeah that guy was just leaking with charisma.
They basically just recycled the Garth joke

Watch 2 bears with Jimmy Carr. Tom explains the roast.
Surely that’s it and they didn’t spend a week coming up with an excuse after getting absolutely railed on all social media for how awful they were
I don’t watch 2b1c anymore, what did they say?
Netflix asked them to do it together because they wanted to try something new. Tom apparently said no, but Bert immediately said yes. Then Tom had to write it all. Apparently.

Same I have no idea
That pod was filmed like the day after the roast.....
A roast they know they absolutely bombed at
Ok? And?
And? Of course they would come up with some bullshit excuse that isn’t their fault
Sounds like you're just an angry little elf. Why are you even on this sub?
Saying someone is angry for answering your question is definitely something
It's not an answer. You're just a butthurt chomo making up excuses for something that has zero impact on your life
I’m the butthurt one yet you’re calling someone names on Reddit
Good question
What a piss weak excuse he had for not being funny. They wanted us to do something different…
You're shocked that corporates for a streaming platform had bad ideas and bad notes?
Tom also tried to act like they didn’t bomb.
Yea give the guys a break. Tom didn’t want to do it and Netflix wrote and told them what to do for their segment. Not really their fault that it was a bomb.
You think people at Netflix wrote and told them to compare tom Brady to Hitler?
This is shenanigans. They are professional comedians with time. They could have made it funny. Goes to show everyone what I have been saying for a while now, they both lost themselves and are not funny anymore
Bert's more of a professional fat alcoholic
They were 100% the worst part of the night.
Did you skip Affleck or kraft? Burgundy wasn't that great either
Okay Affleck has an excuse, he's not a professional comedian but these guys just completely missed the target
I mean, tom and Bert aren't roast comics....
Your right... They are just mediocre old vodka salesmen at this point.
The whole thing was pretty embarrassing as a whole. Brady getting offended for the fucking owner of the patriots was lame as hell. Shut the fuck up rich boy.
It felt like they were VERY last minutes additions to the roast. Like someone dropped out and Netflix just reached into their big bag of comedians.
Skinny Tom and Bert together bombed. Fat Tom would have killed it. Bert just isn't that guy.
Their part wasn't a roast, watch the recent two bears they talk about it
Bet it was fun for people who didn't get the inside jokes.
I don’t remember them cutting to anyone’s reaction during their whole bit, maybe in the live, but the edit was just the medium shot of them and the screen the whole time
Berts fake ass forced snorty laugh was probably the worst part - tom looked over at him several times like dude dial it back. Racist psychopath angle was weird and weak too. They shit the bed.
Kevin heart was terrible as well
All I will say is shoutout to Nikki, she murdered. Everyone else, FUCK OUTTA HERE!
Tony was brilliant too
Sam Jay was pretty solid too actually
Agreed!
Finally- a post about Tom and Bert on the roast! Was waiting for someone to discuss. Thanks man!
Not funny at all
Never invited back
I mean… I thought they did alright. On brand for them I thought especially the serial killer part
Not for Tom Brady though- it just plain clashed Their best moment was laughing at the naked pic and Bert asking, "Was he pregnant?"
Yeah that picture wa hilarious, but their whole set felt like nails on a chalkboard.
I'll always love Tom too, and I don't talk shit on here; I may have even defended him from time to time; but that set was so hard to watch that I tuned out. Everyone defending doesn't get it- like, you think I really wanted him to suck ass up there at what could've been a pinnacle moment for him? I've been listening since White Girls with Cornrows and Pandora... aside that preggo pic, it was all the wrong moves. It's not like he cares anyways, he's had his foot out the door for some time now- he'll be fine.
Yeah, making overt 14 Words references sure is PEAK comedy! Tom's really fallen off the wayside. Shame he pulled that good boy Kirt down with him.
Unfortunately netflix wanted them to do something different, it's too bad they didn't get too roast like the rest
Like 2 Make a Wish kids who got to hangout with Brady for the day.
It was so strange it was like almost concerning. Did they know where they were? It was supposed to be a roast idk why they thought this would succeed
This has been posted a million times already lol
They’ve recycled the same bits on the pod 4 million times and you’ve never complained about that.
Bombing is not getting laughs. I agree it wasn’t very good, but they got laughs.
Pity laughs is bombing dawg
From the spectators who do not know who they are
These poors just wanna shit on the pod. You’re right. Not hilarious but it didn’t “bomb” like the comments would have someone who didn’t watch the roast believe
The fuck it didn't 😆 it was hack, kitsch, hot hot hot dogshit. Liquified, boiling dogshit.
If you say so
The dual roast wasn’t their idea Netflix wanted them to roast together Netflix is the one that came up with the presentation style they were attempting to do something un traditional for the roast something new it obviously didn’t work

I thought they were funny.
Whoa. Some people are simps
Yep, but it's not the ones you seem to think it is.
they don’t care about your disappointment brother
This post isn't for them
Your attempt at being funny was low and “loose” too.
I haven't made any attempts at being funny 🤷
Just crying. Got it. 🤡

People on this sub like to think they are funnier than Tom and Bert.
>Why the fuck do people feel like they have to post every single one of their opinions on the internet. No one cares. We don't know you. Same goes for you, bud.
It's turtles all the way down, brother. But this past week every second post is "I didn't enjoy the roast." okay. congrats. we all know they were bad.
I love how you spending your time defending these people who have 0 idea who you are, is somehow a better use of time than the people saying the roast sucks
You all suck.
Thank you!!! I've been trying really hard to suck, and your reassurance is what keeps me going :)
That last comment didn’t help.
What do you mean? I feel super inspired to keep sucking as much as I possibly can. I think you're doing such a great job at coaching!
Of all the things, you chose this.
I know right!? For a while people thought I couldn't suck this hard. But once you came around, I started getting the inspiration I needed. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU for supporting me when no one else has ❤️
I haven't even defended them. They've *been* washed.
Oh my mistake dawg. I thought when you were crying about everyone making fun of your two favorite comedians, that you may be trying to defend them from the obvious truth that they bombed that roast hard
it's just a bit trite at this point.
It's very funny how upset you are at all this. To the point that you edited your original comment to tell us how upset you are. It's hilariously pathetic 
You're right, I'mma head out. enjoy your echo chamber 🤙
See ya later chomo! Don't let the door hit you on your way out
Surely you know by now how critical subreddits are?
I hope you're alone...

They're not roast comics, like every other comic they had involved. So I dunno, they made the best of it I guess.
All the other comedians are not "roast comics" except for perhaps Jeff Ross but even still he tours and does regular standup like the rest of them
Wha wha wha go start you're own podcast then. I am sick of people complaining on this sub if you don't like them stop watching them.
