The Machine is based on Bert Kreischer's iconic stand-up routine about his brief stint with the Russian Mob. While on a field trip with his college Russian language class, Bert partied with some Russians, only to discover they were Russian mobsters. He then helped them rob the train, including his own classmates. While this story sounds impossible, The Machine takes it to the next level with a fictitious follow-up set 25 years later. The Russian Mob kidnaps Burt and his father to help them find a piece of jewelry that was lost all those years ago during the train heist.
