@@HappyValleyCrawlers hey Wheely, I made the comnent in jest, I appreciate Charlie's videos and find them quite humorous. no hate from my end. Get over yourself
Any mom with more than 6 kids is almost automatically a comic genius. This puts Charlie's mom at God(dess) level. No wonder the merch is so well executed.
My grandma had 5 daughters and 1 son. You’d never tell cause she’s a tiny sweet mature woman. She’s close to 100 yrs old and she’s still coherent and productive. I know it sounds cliche but she can sew and knit and grow almost any damn plant you can think of. This woman also seems like a sweetheart.
ikr. And I'm willing to bet she doesn't whine that the old man doesn't help load the dishwasher like a lot of Moms do today. She has a great can do attitude about life.
@@edisonlima4647 My point wasn't about her... It was a about the women today who whine about the hubby not helping load the dishwasher or unload dryer. Like that's really hard work.. smh. I don't recall either my Mother or grandmother complaining about Dad / grandpa not helping. And they raised a family with no running water. It was carried in. I imagine she does tow the line when it comes to the kids doing their chores. What good parent wouldn't...
I actually don't. I mean, a bit, but I think Charlie absolutely pretends to be more of a goof in his family than in reality. Like when he was making his dad a father's day gift but couldn't get the drill press to work.
It's the first joke every good bartender learns, for when drunks are singing along with the jukebox. The second joke is, "Can you sing tenor? How about singing ten or twelve miles away?" Enjoy those classics at your discretion. :)
We loved seeing Charlie’s dad in the workshop, Charlie’s grandpa on the boat, and his sister going off to college. Mom, though, is truly the queen of the castle. Wonderful. (Also, I want to make potato salad.)
It's totally mom-thug 101. My mom, would say, "WHY don't you just go ahead and try it?" I have my own version with our kid. I give "THAT look" and say, "Go ahead...I dare you."
Thanks! You made my 21 year old laugh out loud. He's had a horrible end of summer, it was great to hear his laugh again. Even though you hate Illinois. Love from Illinois. 😂
Come on now -- he doesn't hate Illinois; just the Bears! Big hugs to your son and I hope he has a much better Autumn than he did end of Summer. ~Raine in Dallas
The exasperation in her voice and that flickers across her face at different moments in this video is absolutely palpable. She would have to be one of the best actresses ever if this were scripted instead of an organic typical interaction between the two, LMFAO.
Omg! Best lunch break video ever! Alternate title would be: "When you cook with a 30 year old going on 3." Loved it, Charlie! Also your mom needs to be in more videos. She's the bomb!
It reminds me of baking with my toddler. He says he wants to measure himself, I say go slow and I will help, and the next I know everything is covered with flour.
As a mother of 10 myself, from almost 20 down to just turned 1, I thoroughly enjoyed the mother/son banter and I absolutely felt that “who’s your favorite kid” response in my soul! Haha! I’ve always had a reputation for being slightly crazy which really just translates into humor. I’m pretty sure you need that I’m order to spawn your own army of tiny minions. Ahh, I can’t wait to mess with my adult children someday and pass the fun on the grand kids.
The chopping part gave me flashbacks to every time I have cooked in the kitchen ever with my brother. Also the saying "it's washed" when it probably isn't. That's why I always wash everything myself, before handing it over for mutilating... I mean chopping. ;)
I miss my mother so much I always used to watch her cook and prolly the only reason I am able to cook for myself today, your mother and you are so awesome, much respect ✊💛🌟✨💯💯
My Mom never taught me how to make her potato salad, she's gone now, and not even my aunts can make it right. Very troublesome. I've had dozens of kinds of potato over the years and lots of them are good, but none of them are quite like Mom's. I can't figure out her secret.
Yesterday, my 17 year old and I worked on her college applications and while it's in no way the same thing as making potato salad, I feel like the experience was identical.
This video was great; thank you! My Mom unexpectedly passed away nearly a year ago; I never got the chance to ask her for her recipe for her Midwestern Potato Salad. I will definitely try this recipe the way your Mom intended; it is basically what my Mom would make. ❤️
If you want to make it a little bit easier you can do what my MN mother did and skip adding vinegar and sugar to the mayo and just use Miracle Whip! I've done it that way myself for years and my friends always wonder why my potato salad is so good! 6:42
You know what would be good with that tater salad? My grandma's pickles. Also, when you or one of your siblings got in trouble, would your mom run through the list of names until she got to the one who messed up?
I grew up in WI, my wife grew up in TN. For a while when we were traveling between the two often, we'd bring good WI pickles south and take good TN moonshine up north. Weirdest smuggling operation I've ever been a part of.
At least in this family, the Mama doesn't have to worry about her baby growing up! Although not one myself, you've demonstrated well that being a mother is a life-long job!
You are brilliant. I love that you have your mom in videos and love your content. So original and you have started your own brand of humor. ** Also the chemistry you two have is so funny and homely
Charlie, let me just say that I love Wisconsin, I was raised there as a child. Matter a fact your sister babysat me, I have met you before (although you probably don’t remember). And let me just say that I think that you are such a nice guy. Keep er’ movin’ and as always, Go Pack Go.
Charlie, I think you're great but your parents deserve a medal for not using you for compost.
I loved how she tried to push the plants around the decomposing peel to hide it from the camera.
He would have made great compost. After all he is full of $h!t most of the time.
@@HappyValleyCrawlers hey Wheely, I made the comnent in jest, I appreciate Charlie's videos and find them quite humorous. no hate from my end. Get over yourself
Hahahahahahahaha 😂
"sick burn mom" - she's right ya know.
Any mom with more than 6 kids is almost automatically a comic genius. This puts Charlie's mom at God(dess) level. No wonder the merch is so well executed.
As a mom of 10 myself, I accept the title. Is there a crown that comes with that at all, or.....
@@KJeske8274 Yes. It comes in a few flavors, but it seems most prefer the apple variant.
My grandma had 5 daughters and 1 son. You’d never tell cause she’s a tiny sweet mature woman. She’s close to 100 yrs old and she’s still coherent and productive. I know it sounds cliche but she can sew and knit and grow almost any damn plant you can think of. This woman also seems like a sweetheart.
@@theadskipper2928 What does your grandma use for fertilizer in her garden? Does she recommend banana peels for extra potassium?
Any mom with more than six kids should be locked up for good because they are the reason we over populated
We need more of Charlie’s Mom. Keep her showing!
AGREE!!
100%! 🙌❤️
shes the best... if we dont see more I will be hurt
Yeah no she kind of a fox though...
For real though she does have pretty good comedic timing!
Here here!
This woman has 12 kids and she looks frigging amazing
ikr. And I'm willing to bet she doesn't whine that the old man doesn't help load the dishwasher like a lot of Moms do today. She has a great can do attitude about life.
Really?
@@PK-bh1ww
Hm... I wouldn't bet on her being the type to lower her head and buckle when those around don't do their part, dude.
@@edisonlima4647 My point wasn't about her... It was a about the women today who whine about the hubby not helping load the dishwasher or unload dryer. Like that's really hard work.. smh.

@@PK-bh1wwHuh...and hear I thought 1957 had come and gone. Weird, that.
Why do I feel that this is an honest interaction between Charlie and his mom and this is how it really is?
how much do ya wanna bet that ALL of Charlie's teachers distinctly remember him?
Because literally all sons act like that... Especially in the kitchen!!! LMAO.
Oh because it is lol
Because only fake mom's believe their children are angels. Even when the kid seasons her potato salad with deer guts & hair.
I actually don't. I mean, a bit, but I think Charlie absolutely pretends to be more of a goof in his family than in reality. Like when he was making his dad a father's day gift but couldn't get the drill press to work.
Mom doesn’t allow the rude language…love it!
"Who sang that?"
"Simon and Garfunkel."
"Let's keep it that way."
Absolutely priceless
And, I will be stealing that,
of course.
It's the first joke every good bartender learns, for when drunks are singing along with the jukebox.
The second joke is, "Can you sing tenor? How about singing ten or twelve miles away?"
Enjoy those classics at your discretion. :)
Sounds like me cooking with my mom
That's why whenever someone asks me who signs this song, "I just say I do!"
My son said he ran, not walked, right into that joke. Lol
I've been using that for years 🤣🤣
We loved seeing Charlie’s dad in the workshop, Charlie’s grandpa on the boat, and his sister going off to college. Mom, though, is truly the queen of the castle. Wonderful. (Also, I want to make potato salad.)
I know me too! Potato Salad on the menu for tomorrow lol!
Lol, when she said "try me" I got concerned for Charlie's life.
You don't raise 12 kids with empty threats.
Yeah that tone of voice said she wasn’t joking!
Me too. I don't mess with my mother's "Try Me "🤣
It's totally mom-thug 101. My mom, would say, "WHY don't you just go ahead and try it?"
I have my own version with our kid. I give "THAT look" and say, "Go ahead...I dare you."
😂😂
I’m a huge fan of this particular cooking show. Your mom is terrific!
Love when she brought out Charlie's life-in-a-box....hilarious!
He's still got the cheese hat
I was like, oh that's a great idea! Lol
Epic mom-move! Baby pics on deck, lol
Loved getting to see young Charlie! Thanks mom
That's an organized woman! With 12 kids, she has to be! I'm gonna steal that idea because I save too much stuff!
when she said "I'm not kidding" i tensed up a bit, have heard that exact tone before
Charlie: “Who’s ur favorite?” Mom: “Not u.”
Yup, different kids at different times. If ur the one askin, it’s not ur time. Lol
More like, "If you have to ask - you ain't it."
At least, that's what I was always told. And I'm an only child. :/
I miss the truth, big families will have some nuts. !
@@dogslobbergardens6606 🤣🤣🤣
That was amazing!
usually the one who is furthest away :)
_(speaking from experience)_
The look that your mom gave to the camera when you licked the knife... I literally doubled over laughing.
I wanna see Charlie Berens’ and Gus Johnson’s mom do a collab for the ultimate Wisconsin video
YES!!!
NOW YOURE TALKING
Oh, yes please!!!!!!
YES
Brilliant !!
I'm down
Thanks! You made my 21 year old laugh out loud. He's had a horrible end of summer, it was great to hear his laugh again. Even though you hate Illinois. Love from Illinois. 😂

@@user-bz3wq4bd1b nope not a bears fan. Live too far South in IL for that. Lol
We all hate Illinois, but not as much as Iowa
@@katiekoduvalil6049 past Grigsville?
@@victork.8860 not sure where that is.
"TRY ME!" Every mother from the beginning of time.
I'm 33 years old and still felt instant regret, lmao
@@Hexaven Yup. That isn't a challenge; that's a death threat.
And she wasn't smiling when she said it. You see he didn't try her?? Lol
@@studyingthewordtogether No. I'm thinking his older brother, Andy, unwisely accepted the challenge and Charlie vowed he'd never go down that road.
@@graceskerp whatever the motivation was, he chose wisely, lol
I absolutely ADORE your mother, Charlie! Tell her I says HI!
I’m torn between hoping this is scripted for his mom’s sake, and hoping it’s not cuz it’s too relatable 😂
I think it's actually a good mix: 50/50
I just hope the knife was actually clean for the potatoes sake.
IF it's scripted her delivery was perfect.
The exasperation in her voice and that flickers across her face at different moments in this video is absolutely palpable. She would have to be one of the best actresses ever if this were scripted instead of an organic typical interaction between the two, LMFAO.
The way she keeps saying "for the show", "just for show", I think she's a real mom. She wants to do the cooking show the right way!!! Bless her lol
"Who sings that? Let's keep it that way"
I hear that at least 10 times a week 😅
Love from Indiana!
Omg! Best lunch break video ever! Alternate title would be: "When you cook with a 30 year old going on 3." Loved it, Charlie! Also your mom needs to be in more videos. She's the bomb!
You are so right. That was funny.
You nailed it!
Charlie is not going to put his mother in more videos. Reason being answers she would take the Limelight from him. Can't have that
Sometimes I miss Wisconsin. But after 50 years of living in California, my accent still comes out and making potato salad like my grandma!
They are both wielding knifes in close quarters yet soap is the biggest threat = Midwest Nice
Yes! So relatable lmao
Nope. That's called being a mom.
I love that she has 12 kids and still box full of pictures for each kid. Shows her love of her kids and Charlie highlights her patience.
Love? Or blackmail…?
@@spacewolfcub She has 12 kids it's easily both lol
Your mother is a saint and has the patience of Job.
There is a special place in Heaven for Moms like her. And my Mom. She had 9 of us! And my husbands Mom, who had 8 boys!
That's right mom! No raisins in potato salad. 😂😂😂 I definitely see where he got his humor from. He needs to show more of her for sure.
I appreciate the line
“Who’s your favorite?” “Not you”.
He looks just like mom! you are adorable together!
This is a cooking show that's actually close to reality
It reminds me of baking with my toddler. He says he wants to measure himself, I say go slow and I will help, and the next I know everything is covered with flour.
As a mother of 10 myself, from almost 20 down to just turned 1, I thoroughly enjoyed the mother/son banter and I absolutely felt that “who’s your favorite kid” response in my soul! Haha!

God bless you!
10??? You need a new hobby. 😄
@@trossk As a matter of fact, I’m enjoying the current one just fine. 😏
Jesus Murphy 10 kids.......wow I can only imagine holidays especially when they Start having little window lickers of their own lol
@@halfassranch8363 Yeah, it's going to be amazing!
Please make this a regular segment. Thanks and tell your folks I says hi.
Love Charlie's mom!!! How does she look so amazing after 12 kids? I'm so jealous. Potato Salad looks delish!! Thank you for another great video.
And she is still sane!
RIP Charlie Behrens: Cause of death- Maternal Burn.
"Let's keep it that way"
She brought him into this world, and she can take him out. 😧
Burn
As a mother of seven, Charlie had me freaking out with the knife. Love his mom.
Two thumbs up to your terrific mom. Great burn on Charlie and his singing.
Best mom ever. She's even composting simply. You are one lucky duck.
Charlie, your Mom is adorable! Funny, beautiful and has the patience of a Saint! Here's to you Mrs B! 😘
Favorite parts“ TRY ME” , the baby pictures and the mom eyes. ❤
Wow 12 kids way to go!!
Mom said "get a facial" and Charlie didn't even giggle. Good job, Charlie. I'm proud of ya.
I would have snorted and my mom would have immediately realized why!
I would have laughed, my mom wouldn't get it!
I didn’t even hear that part! 😂
Absolutely love your mom and how she does not fall for your shenanigans!!
"I will wash your mouth out with soap. I'm not kidding." Your mom is awesome, Charlie, lol.
My Mom's favorite saying.
And she was NOT kidding 🤭😝😂
then she's says Try me!
Thanks!
Today we confirm his mom is a saint.
Parents who don’t laugh at their kids jokes or antics make the best comedies!
*"TRY ME."*
I'm 33 years old, and I still felt that.
Yup. My mom's been dead twenty years and I still felt that.
I’m 53 and felt that.
43 and yup. Wasn't going to reply also buy seriously, clearly we are counting by 10's and I couldn't leave it hanging.
The chopping part gave me flashbacks to every time I have cooked in the kitchen ever with my brother. Also the saying "it's washed" when it probably isn't. That's why I always wash everything myself, before handing it over for mutilating... I mean chopping. ;)
😂 Mutilating
The everything part gave me flashbacks to every time I’ve kicked out of the kitchen everyone with extreme prejudice. xD
@@spacewolfcub You should see what my brother did to my Pizza once...
Molly, I am truly surprised that Charlie lasted this long in life. Ya done good!! Keep er' movin'
I’m from Alberta and this makes me homesick. Howdy from your cousins in Canada!
Charlie makes me want to move to Midwest. Keep er moving.
You should it's great here in Michigan by the great lakes 👍😁
Not sure there's a whole lot to do in the Midwest. I mean, his mom had 12 kids... You know? 😉🤭
Mom is hilarious. Lov'ed it
OK I now get why my husband makes me cook. He is a proud Wisconsinite and baby of his family and his cooking looks a bit like this. 😂
I wish I could give this more than one like. I’ve watched it a couple two tree times, now, and laughed every time. Charlie, your mom is a natural.
More Charlie's Mom content, please!
Ahh, the raisins, ya, you know that had me Rollin.
“You’re mad it wasn’t clean, now it’s cleaner!”
Best line of the whole video!!
Mom is awesome!! More please!!
Now I see where Charlie gets his sense of humor!
I miss my mother so much I always used to watch her cook and prolly the only reason I am able to cook for myself today, your mother and you are so awesome, much respect ✊💛🌟✨💯💯
The video has to wait due to work, but first and foremost, bless your Mama for sharing her recipes! In the South, it's a coveted experience!
My Mom never taught me how to make her potato salad, she's gone now, and not even my aunts can make it right. Very troublesome. I've had dozens of kinds of potato over the years and lots of them are good, but none of them are quite like Mom's. I can't figure out her secret.
@@dogslobbergardens6606 I have family who guard cooking secrets. I think it's nuts. Share, people, share.
OMG his mom has a heart of gold...
Yesterday, my 17 year old and I worked on her college applications and while it's in no way the same thing as making potato salad, I feel like the experience was identical.

I enjoyed that so much and I cheered out loud when his mom took the raisins before he could add them. absolutely not to raisins!!
I legitimately read the title of this vid as: "How to make a potato sad".
I'm always drinking when I cook... ironically that's when the food taste best 🤣🤣🤣
a pleasure to meet your Mom. She looks surprisingly sane for having 12 kids
God bless your Mom--and you, too!
Who wanted to see Charlie getting his mouth washed? 😂
Not me. I need another year of therapy just from seeing the threat.
I’m surprised she didn’t pophim on the back of the head.
Yeah, I felt that, "Try me!" Mom was NOT having it, lol
@@dogslobbergardens6606 lol!
I wanna see.
Wow! That garden is IMPRESSIVE!
Dude this was super well done you guys are so natural on camera my mom watched this with me and laughed alot ❤️😂
Oh lordy! I realized I sound the same as your mother when I'm dealing with my son! Bless her heart, your mother has so much patience with you.
Charlie, I love your parents! I see you got a double dose of sense of humor from them 💜💜💜 OH, and go Lions 🦁...( I am so miserable)
I wish I would be just as half as calm as his mom. She's gold.
You know what would be good with that tater salad? My grandma's pickles.
Also, when you or one of your siblings got in trouble, would your mom run through the list of names until she got to the one who messed up?
I grew up in WI, my wife grew up in TN. For a while when we were traveling between the two often, we'd bring good WI pickles south and take good TN moonshine up north. Weirdest smuggling operation I've ever been a part of.
Man, sometimes my Mom got so mad she forgot my name like that... and I'm an only child.
Exactly. I'm #3 out of nine kids and my mom did exactly that! I Have 4 kids and I did it too with them.
Yup! And I felt that soap threat.
That's a good trade! Whereabouts in Wisconsin are you from? My Dad came from Manitowoc, but I spent most of my childhood in NJ.
I love Charlie's mom❣️ She is naturally witty!! His dad is, too! It's apparently a family affair.
At least in this family, the Mama doesn't have to worry about her baby growing up! Although not one myself, you've demonstrated well that being a mother is a life-long job!
100% the best potato salad tutorial I’ve ever seen in my life
Should've said "How To Take Four Times As Long To Make Potato Salad". Your Mom is a saint.
(Also, needs some mustard and bacon bits, just sayin'.)
Mustard SEED. ....and REAL bacon.
I think the vinegar replaces the mustard
The look on his Mom's face at 5:26 had me rolling on the floor. This was hilarious.
If we don't get a Captain Charlie shirt the packers will never make the post season
And as a Cowboys fan, I'm OK with that.
Watching this video brings back a lot of memories I've had with my mom helping her cook.
well done getting her boy Charlie to adulthood 👏
with all his fingers still attached
You are brilliant. I love that you have your mom in videos and love your content. So original and you have started your own brand of humor.
** Also the chemistry you two have is so funny and homely
Ok, I want mom and you to have a full blown cooking show
You mom should start get own channel-she is such a treasure!!!!!!
Good to know that messing with your mom is a universal thing 😂
God bless the patience that your Mom has with you!
"Mom I'm to old for that"
"yeah just try me!"
Mom's rule!
Love this so much! My son is 11. I could totally see him growing up to me this guy and me her. ☺️ The Lord is good!
Great video my dude, I was laughing the whole time, your Mom is hilarious! I wouldn't trust that knife either! :P
It's just some rust, some blood... it adds minerals to the deal.
Charlie’s mom is the most motherly mom in the history of mom
Your knife skills scare the crap out of me!!
Charlie, let me just say that I love Wisconsin, I was raised there as a child. Matter a fact your sister babysat me, I have met you before (although you probably don’t remember). And let me just say that I think that you are such a nice guy. Keep er’ movin’ and as always, Go Pack Go.
I’m amazed with how similar your mom and Gus Johnson’s mom are. Authentic Wisconsinites.
Every Midwestern family is the same
Your mom's adorable Charlie
Charlie’s life in a box 😂
It's a pretty small box...
@@GenXandProud Well, with 12 kids he is (un)lucky there is any box at all.
Love Charlie (and mom) even though Charlie wipes his nose while he’s cooking!!!
E-e-ew! This just confirms that many Wisconsinites aren't taking COVID seriously!
I love how his mom looks at him like his terrible 2’s are still in full effect 😂😂😂
WE NEED TO SEE UR MOM MORE ..LIKE EVERY EPISODE...SHE IS INCREDIBLE
