This is my brother Sean on the left, and me doing what I love. This spotlight picture was taken at the NACA Northern Plains Conference where Christine and students first saw me live! Thank you ELIZABETH! We missed you!!!

That was a great show, the greatest of the year by far.
Thanks for coming to Carroll!
Bernie,
I’m Lauren– the girl at the beginning who almost didn’t stay because I had too much homework! =) I just wanted to tell you that I did stay, and I’m so happy I did. You do a wonderful job of mixing comedy and a serious message. Thank you for coming to Carroll!
Don’t worry– I’ll do my homework as soon as I’m done leaving this message. ; )
Thanks so much again.

Such a good show! I sat just to your right with 2 other guys and a girl all by ourselves haha. it was a good message for sure. thanks for coming to carroll.
Easily the best comedy/inspirational shows I have ever seen. The show was great tonight. Even better than when I saw you at NACA.

hey bernie. thanks for the show tonight. i really think, if you haven’t already, you should go to the University of Mraquette. it’s downtown milwaukee. i’ve got some friends there that you might influence. my friends and i had a blast. i was the one in the back laughing about the electric slide. the reason it was so funny was because i had before the show proven that i knew how to do it. and it was the original. thats why we were laughing so hard. it was a great time. thanks again
great show. i was definitely not expecting the twist. i also lost a family member due to the exact same situation as you. congratulations on your sobriety. keep it up.
I Loved the Show…it was truly inspirational and very funny…I had an awesome time watching the show!!!
Thank you so much for coming to Carroll!! I thought that you sent out a great message and a story that every person SHOULD hear!! Congrats on being sober for 21 years thats a great accomplishment that you should be very proud of!! And I think that your brother Scott would be very proud of you and your message that you are sending to everyone!

Bernie!
You were great!! as I’m sure you always are
I had a really good time tonight and your show gave me a lot of great laughs, but also very helpful insight. Your message is wonderful and needs to be heard… especially by college students. Once again you were great, keep doing what you do!

Great show tonight! Thanks for coming to Carroll and sharing your message in probably the most entertaining way possible
And don’t feel bad about being short….I’m only 5 feet tall, and not growing any more.

Thanks for coming to Carroll University (and not calling us Carroll College!!) I really enjoyed your message and fresh ideas that you shared. Congrats on being sober and keep it up!! Hopefully we will see you again on our campus in the future!
Thanks for coming to Carroll! I loved the show!
Thanks for coming to Carroll! It was a great show with a great message. Congrats again on continuing to be sober. Hope to see you again!
Bernie,
Thanks a lot for coming to Carroll. The message you sent was very influential. Your show helped me decide that I will not put myself in the situations that you did. I appreciate your going all around to share your story with everyone because we really do get a lot out of it. I am sure you will save some people’s educations and lives by them learning from your mistakes. Thank you again for coming! It was a great combination of funny and serious, and I will definitely recommend that others come to see your show.
Hey Bernie! You were awesome, I’m your #1 fan!!
I hope you enjoyed the pizza that Mama Leones brought you! But really your message and story was very inspirational and funny! Thanks for stopping by CU!! Tell Sean I say hi!
(and Debbie)
I loved the show and laughed so hard my face hurt after it was over. Also when I was out walking outside, I found it really funny that one of the kids you made a drug comment about was out smoking something within 5 minutes after you had finished.
