Summary
Written by a model from the transcript; not yet reviewed.
Tom Segura and Bert Kreischer discuss Jelly Roll's recent guest-host appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, where he made a joke addressing the president as a fat pig. The hosts examine the intense online reactions to political jokes and compare them to older cancel culture controversies, such as Mel Gibson's hand gestures. Later, the conversation shifts to Tom's severe sleep anxiety and panic attacks, particularly a 36-hour episode he experienced after a friend pointed out how often he yawns. They unpack how their childhood bedtime and morning routines shaped their adult psychological patterns, and they close with banter about Salma Hayek turning 60 and Jonah Hill's Brazilian jiu-jitsu training.
- Jelly Roll's primary regret from the Grammys was refusing to make a political statement, which ironically turned into a massive political statement itself. 6:37
- The hosts argue that public outrage online often mirrors the irrationality of an actual panic attack. 21:33
- Tom reveals that his severe sleep anxiety and nightly panic attacks were deeply rooted in a complete lack of childhood bedtime structure. 23:49
- Bert shares that he avoids brushing his teeth at night due to tactile sensory issues with toothpaste. 35:43

Welcome back to 2 Bears 1 Cave! This week Tom Segura and Bert Kreischer dive right in with Jelly Roll's headline-grabbing Kimmel monologue where he addressed the president as "from one fat pig to another." Bert then takes full credit for Jelly Roll's weight loss and the entire genesis of the Two Bears 5K, because technically he was in the room when that casually became a thing. They also have exciting news, a new 5K is coming in April and it's going to be bigger than ever. From there, Bert opens up about the panic attacks he's been having, severe, physical, and rooted in something he now understands: a complete lack of childhood bedtime structure. Tom grew up getting nightly Catholic prayers, a sign of the cross from mom, and the full rosary in the car for any trip over ten minutes. Bert grew up watching Letterman alone at nine years old at 3am while his dad slept off a ten mile run. The bears compare notes on childhood bedtime routines, how they each put their own kids down now, and what sleep anxiety looks like when it hits a grown adult, including Bert's most recent 36-hour panic attack that started when a friend told him he yawns too much and he forgot how to do it. He couldn't yawn for a day and a half. He finally yawned in couples therapy. That's where we are. They also get into Mel Gibson getting lightly canceled for mocking a sign language interpreter (on the scale of Mel Gibson incidents, this doesn't even register), a game of complimenting Salma Hayek on the one thing she's never heard in her 60 years on earth, Tom Hardy's new rap album, Jonah Hill's white belt jiu jitsu bravado and whether he'd actually beat Jason Bateman's ass, the Eddie Bravo black eye that made Bert walk out of a jiu jitsu class without ever taking his jeans off, and the Times Square Stabber whose fat padding made every taser completely ineffective and whose stabbing motion made this incident appear beyond ridiculous at first. 2 Bears, 1 Cave Ep. 338 https://tomsegura.com/tour https://www.bertbertbert.com/tour https://store.ymhstudios.com Gambling Problem?
