If you pause this video at any point it looks like a successful dad talking to his still living at home unemployed pothead son.

“You don’t want to break any rules but you don’t know what the fucking rules are” literally me my entire Marine Corps enlistment 😅

"It's like drinking from a fire hose" such a good example.

Rob: “I didn’t know what to do” Military recruiters: *evil laughter*

"Rob tries to explain that he didn't go to boot camp"

I honestly love Bert’s interviews. There seems to be a wonderment and genuine interest when he ask questions which a lot of interviewers lack.

An officer failed at land nav? Weird....that almost never happens.

I love how in the beginning he avoids swearing. The deeper into the Marine Corps stuff he gets the more he just starts dropping F bombs. Oorah sir!

I’ve always loved & respected the HELL out of Riggle being a Marine. From an old Navy HM, Rob, thank you, brother. 👍🏼🇺🇸

Going Through Boot Camp and Becoming a Drill Instructor were the best times of my life! Rob Riggle Semper Fidelis! @Bert Kreischer thanks for having him on!

Great to hear Rob’s Marine OCS experience. I went to OCS in 1992 after having been in Marine Bootcamp 1989. Two completely different experiences to say the least. I actually got *boarded” at 6 weeks and was eventually allowed to go back into training. I got two chits (demerits) for “lack of physical courage” during hand-to-hand combat training (pugil sticks) and dropping out of a squad integrity run in which I stepped aside to vomit instead of puking in formation on the guy in front of me. Being *on-the-bubble” and not being able to fail anymore events, definitely upped the pressure level of OCS. It was like being a bushy-tailed squirrel living in a room full of rocking chairs.

That story about taking extra fire watch to practice is the essence of what being a Marine is to me. Doing WHATEVER it takes to accomplish the mission. That mindset has served me incredibly well. Semper Fi!

I went through Marine Corps OCS in the early '70's. It's boot camp for officer candidates. We had mustangers (former enlisted who got out and came back in as an officer candidate) in our platoon and they had been through enlisted boot camp. They all said OCS was worse. We had a DOR board and a bell. They pushed to get you to drop on request. Some couldn't hack it and they DOR'd. Others were cut. There is a high percentage of people who don't make it all the way through the program. Once you do graduate and you are commissioned, you then go to The Basic School, which is 6 months of intense training. After that, you go to you assigned specialty school. I was in artillery, so we went through 3 months of artillery training. So, it's a long time from OCS to finally being assigned to the fleet. A lot of pressure in every stage. Wouldn't trade that experience for anything.

Riggle clarifies the difference between Boot Camp and OCS. Then Bert repeatedly calls it Boot Camp.

Riggle knew what he wanted and took it by the balls. My man! Another great podcast 👍🏻

Rob Riggle is a joy to watch, especially Shark Week 2018 and 2019. He hit it out of the park with those shows.

“You don’t want to make any mistakes, but you don’t know what the fucking rules are.” 100%

Can’t spell lost without LT😂

I've always enjoyed his energetic comedy and satire. I'd heard he was a Marine. I did not know he was an officer. Gives me that much more respect for him.

My dog still hasn't recovered Bert. Thanks for scarring her emotionally for life.

This by far is one of the best bertcast. Rob Riggle is one of my heros as a Marine.

I love how he starts the video not cussing but talking about the military puts him back to saying fuck every other word haha. Rah.

First time I ever heard LtCol Riggle sound like a Marine. Would have loved to serve under him.

Burts looking at him like oh shit my worst life experience is one time the pizza delivery guy never showed up so I had to get in my own car and actually drive to taco bell and wait in line and get my own Taco Bell it was absolutely brutal like your story.

This is one of the best interviews, hands down. Lol

That is the quietest Bert has ever been on his podcast. 😁👍🏻

And that's the bottom line. " You make your choices, make your decisions ". And you own them. You made the choice, you bear the responsibility for it. It's a leadership quality that many lack.

Rob has a wonderful talent of story telling. nice cast Bert!

Look at the way Bert is sitting in the couch 😂😂😂

Love how he said "heck or high water" then says fuck 14 times rapid fire 😂🤣

Riggle talking about what he did to graduate in front of someone who hilariously couldn't. That's classic, Bert's face was the perfect expression, fuckin cajun

Great interview Burt!

First night of OCS was much different than boot camp. They had us lined up in a big room with boxes in front of us. Then had is all strip naked, put everything we brought with us in the box and put on pt gear. Definitely let you know you weren’t in Kansas anymore. Also, my mom got the pleasure of opening the box of dirty unfolded clothes that they mailed back home.

IN THE FACE!!! IN DA FACE!!!!! All time moment for Rob Riggle.

Fuck yeah Rob. That dedication right there is what made you a stellar Marine Officer. Proud to have served in your Corps, Lt. Col.

Love the descriptions Rob. Reminds me of AF basic training, though they were trying pretty hard to keep the recruits. Lost a couple guys but they really didn’t want to be there anyway. Thanks for your service-you are a patriot.

And thats how you do an interview!!! Bert gets it!!!! Totally great layout.

Hearing this brings back some memories of boot camp....Semper Fi Brother.

Met rob at the comedy tent at a Bonnaroo one year ... 2009? Not sure. Awesome memory

That's the longest I've seen Bert listen without interrupting

i think this is the first time I've seen Bert not interrupt someone 47 times during a story

OCS in 2009. TBS in 2011. Fun times.

Rob says he went through Officer’s school. Burnt Krysler still titles video as boot camp.

Great to hear these stories. I went thru basic training and loved it. Mind games galore. 50 min to make bed mil spec. Of course first time you couldn't and then you now get 40 min. I enjoyed every minute

Rob is a hero. We are in a brotherhood that no one will understand. Oorah Rob!!! Semper Fi brother

Thank you for your service Mr. Riggle sir.

Love how Rob corrected Bert and told him it was OCS and Bert still titled this video Boot Camp😂

OUTSTANDING, THANK YOU!

Becoming a marine is the greatest thing I could ever do. I can honestly thank the marine corps, leadership, and friends I made for making me a better person for civilization. I heard LtCol Riggle was a great leader.

Man he definitely loved it while he was in.

I keep half expecting him to yell POW POW!! at any given moment.

Rob is awesome man.. Love to meet him.

I really liked Mr. Riggle when he came on the entertainment scene not too long ago. I was really surprised when I learned that his 'funny'' guy was a marine. That's great! Very impressive guy.

Two of my favorite funny men!

Wait is this the Gym Teacher from 21 Jump Street?? 😂😂

Very real truths and experiences. Made great choices!

This guy has been in so many shows and movies and I learned his name from a Bert podcast clip....

My goodness! He's the cutest! :)

One of my favorite comedians, served in the military like a badass, and paid to get his grandfather to fly a plane. Robert Allen Riggle Jr. ladies and gents. 👏👏

Always like seeing entertainers like Bert asking about and getting knowledge from vets. Semper Fi, Rob.

I love his description of Kansas

THE MACHINE!?!😆😂🤣

Riggle: (entire story) Krysler: wow (thinks to himself, "so that's how discipline works")

Bert's ears perked up at "a bunch of puppies running around"...

Learn to be a follower before you get to learn to be a leader. Great observation.

brings me back to army basic training lmao

Woah, i used to machine the the parts for the mailboxes he is talking about

Rob is pretty badass. Semper Fi!

Great interview! Kinda glad I didn't submit my stuff after I graduated college. 🤣

I start saying the F word frequently when telling Marine stories too

I hated my life while is in the Army, now I miss it.

Bert’s treadmill in the back probably covered in cobwebs

I love rob riggle

As a former DI, I KNOW for fact BOTH officer OCS and enlisted boot camp are stuck with some that barely make it or slipped by in first phase. 9 out of 10 of those are dropped in the 4 weeks of basic warrior training (Camps Lejuene/Pendleton) or whatever they call it now. The other 1 out of 10 goes sometime during their enlistment. Example I was getting ready to drop a recruit because he couldn’t do the Obstacle and confidence course and some PT stuff I was told I had dropped too many recruits already and had to keep him. THIS IS THE SAME IN ALL MILITARY BRANCHES. And if you don’t believe that look at today’s recruiting issues, THEY ARE keeping some losers now. Unless you are a LGBTQ cuz +++, then you are DEFINITELY being kept 🥸

i couldnt finish this...berts mouth breathing right into the mic is fuxkin me up

Still have to get my medical at Pensacola done before i can contract - that volunteer firewatch might be key tho...damn

Right!!! That’s awesome

Bobby dukes! Best riggle character

Riggle: DROP Bert: DROP LIKE A ROCK SIR

I guess I'm the only one who failed land nav at an NCO school and OCS lol. I'm just a guy from a small/medium sized city ,who has always been a navigational challenged type lol.

An Office failing Land Nav, WHAT A SHOCKER! Semper Fi Rob!

Funniest thing in that room if the treadmill in the corner...!!! Yeah, right!

What he described was 30th AG at Ft. Benning.

I wonder if they called it “Riggleing” out of Firewatch 😂

I went to OCS at Quantico. All this is 100% true.

SFMF. And.......a boot Lt. Got lost in the woods......say it ain’t so Devil!!!

I went through Coast Guard boot camp. People may think that’s easy peezy but CG is the only branch that USMC shared their boot camp drill with. A lot of what he’s saying here translates to CG boot camp.

Fire watch! Hahahaha!

That's the truth 💯

"Square yourself away Marine!"... Man, did I hear that regularly and "Unfuck the area!"...

sounds like what i imagine air force boot camp

Hey Brent!

Dude has his shoe on the table

How the hell is someone too short to fly a plane in the military. Aliens reach us all the time and them sunsaguns are 4 feet tall on a good day

BERT we need more somethings burning

Bert....you need to change the title. He didn't go to Boot Camp....he went to Officer Candidate School here on Quantico. Its a pretty big difference

Mandatory 8 hours Ha. 😂😂😂😂 Must be nice!!

Your not allowed to break. DI's dare you to break 😁 let the games begin!

Imagine the Joe, Bert, Tom and Ari doing sober October BUDS

Rob Riggle is awesome. He's the reason I'm mispronouncing "avocado"
