Show Me The Funny
🔸 Gilbert Burns Street Fight
Burns recounts a crazy 2010 carnival incident in Brazil where he was stabbed in the back during a street brawl. Initially hesitant to go out, he was drawn into a chaotic fight involving bottles and punches, knocking out an opponent with his first-ever street punch.
The hosts marvel at the scar and Burns’ story, turning a dark memory into a funny podcast moment.
“I knocked the guy out…” explains Burns. “It was like that, you know, when the guys punch me, that was not first boom. And then we started fighting, and then the fight got crazy… I’m pretty sure I got stabbed by one of those bottles.”
