Nateland | Ep #22 - The Wife

[@Trobtwillis]

I like Laura's attitude about being a subject of Nate's jokes. "It pays the bills." She gets it. When Anna Romano complains about being a subject of Ray's jokes, he tells her: "Go cry in a bag of money." 😄💭

[@lornadoone65]

😅😅😅😅

[@sharonjack8582]

"When people are BAD at comedy, they do DIRTY". So TRUE. I have turned off so many raunchy boring comedians. Nate is refreshing with clean and no cursing. His wholesome humor is what the world needs NOW. He is FUNNY.

[@kelliejones6899]

Harper looks just like Laura and seeing Nate with Harper is the cutest thing. What great parents!

[@IsItTrueThat]

Very impressed by Laura, particularly her thoughts on family finances which were roughly, "If I am unhappy with how much income we have, I should go make more, not rely on my spouse". She tempered it with, a "if he isn't making much he shouldn't be spending much" counterpoint. Love the self-reliance and it was clear, she absorbed her dad's work ethic and expectation that she would be content whether scraping by or doing well financially.

[@nicholehough6933]

I have a feeling that someday Nate will see family above all is something time doesn’t give back, you can tell a new joke everyday, tour and work so hard at becoming what other people need you to be, but you can’t get the time lost with your wife and your kids and those are the ones who matter the most

[@dawnrivlin1368]

Condensing is fun and funny :)

[@angelahart4863]

Nate has made me laugh during some really hard times. So, when everyone agreed on that comedy is needed, I teared up a bit. And I actually used what Laura said on a dating app. That the perfect first date is a comedy show. It’s a make or break when you find out what they laugh at. Laura is amazing.

[@lindadickinson1310]

Loved the show

[@lesliejarboe3596]

I say “Great parenting” to Nate and Laura’s parents for raising two incredible people and “fate” or Appleby’s for uniting them! Great families!

[@nancym4049]

3 years later but good to see Nate and his wife and get to meet their adorable daughter.

[@melief469]

I’ll bet Laura’s parents are totally blown away now! SNL, GRAMMY nominations…. 😊

[@TaylorSmith-dy5ju]

As a healthcare provider I can tell you this. MOST medicines don’t actually expire. However, the drugs in the tetracycline group (doxycycline and minocycline are some popular ones) do become much more nephrotoxic after the expiration date.

[@katesander93]

Yeah they put that in steel magnolias. She took some old medicine and it boxed her kidneys.

[@suewalker3603]

So fun to watch! Nate is my favorite comedian. Hands down. I’m a Tennessee girl! Loved the ending with Harper! She is adorable, just like your wife. I think you are a lucky man to have 2 great girls! ❤ I’m happy I found your podcast! God bless!!

[@JGLy22086]

I’ve only recently found Nate. He is hysterical, I’m definitely becoming a fan.

[@panop1725]

Man, Nate hit the jackpot with Laura. Not many women would be so understanding and independently minded in similar circumstances.

[@fearofaflatearth]

Yeah most women are terrible

[@susansmith493]

It behooves her

[@justinschultz4325]

Seriously dude - This is the best podcast. Funny, honest, and clean. Please keep doing this.

[@nikbrownell]

Very sorry to hear about your grandmother, but I couldn’t stop laughing hearing you talk about the shenanigans of the funeral. About 10 years ago I was a relatively new pastor and had to do my first funeral. Just a few seconds into it, my newborn son ripped the hugest, juiciest fart of all time that interrupted me mid-sentence. There’s now a mix of people crying and people giggling and I’m just frozen in shock. I learned that day that a moment of prayer is very handy way to get people’s eyes off of you for a minute while you recoup. Thanks to all of you guys for the laughs and for sharing your stories with us. On a side note, congratulations to Nate on getting your hands back to a normal human color instead of that traffic cone orange.

[@taristazin2073]

I LOVE how he points out that people who are bad at comedy go dirty. He is SO right!

[@bardiam8284]

Swearing a lot too. Excessive swearing is a waste of the necessary punctuation that swearing can be. That's one of the reasons he and Gaffigan are sooo good. It's the everyday stuff that's the funniest and there's such a large amount of the ridiculous happening everywhere around us it's so relatable.

[@wolverine3344]

I would add Brian Regan to the clean funny group.

[@maverick33guy95]

Nah he's wrong...comedy is comedy you're either good or not...there's plenty of shit clean comedians out there

[@MindyU-t1s]

@@maverick33guy95 there really are good comedians who swear and are dirty, and are hysterical, and clean comedians who are hysterical.

[@taristazin2073]

@@maverick33guy95 If you manage to be hilarious while being clean, you are truly talented. There are "funny" comedians out there who would be nothing if not for being shock comedians and being as foul mouthed and gross as possible. I.e.: Amy Shumer. She is NOT a talented comedian.

[@elitewomanizer]

What happened to ‘hello folks’ ?!!!? We voted and everything! Can I just say I didn’t realise Nate, Aaron and Brokeback Munchkin were clean comics until you addressed it. That’s a sign of true talent when you don’t even notice and also...let me be honest...swearing isn’t needed to be funny. All three of you are the truth. Respect 👏🏽

[@WillieGoshh]

I wonder if BeanDip has ever sworn in his life.

[@WifeynJobin]

💯 to be a consistent funny clean comic takes talent and I appreciate them SO much. Don't get me wrong I love a Chappelle set, but it's great finding clean comics that are actually good.

[@elitewomanizer]

@@WifeynJobin Chappelle is one of my GOATs definitely. I just didn’t notice. Funny is funny 😄

[@JGComments]

Yeah if you don’t yell the f word every two seconds you actually have to be funny lol.

[@djstarsign]

When I first discovered Nate on Marc A Ron’s live podcast so many years ago, I was immediately struck by his hilarious storytelling. I was expecting some blonde, Californian stoner dude from his voice. And I found Yelled At By A Clown, which I listened to over and over, dying laughing. And I realized later that Nate was a clean comic. I think it’s so much tougher to be clean and to get laughs from pretty liberal, potty mouth, dirtbags like me. I would introduce my friends to his skits (he didn’t have much of a social media presence back then) and we’d crack up, laughing so much at his jokes. And then I’d tell them if they’d noticed he was clean. They were also impressed. It’s like being a bad ass chef and making food everyone loves only to discover the chef has no sense of smell. Nate is the best.

[@nicoletchidester]

guys! this episode almost made me cry. i have been isolated in my room in quarantine for 13 days because i had covid and live with someone high risk, so we are having to be extra careful. i have also been extra home sick this week since i’m not going home to be with family for thanksgiving. watching this episode was like hanging with friends and seeing Nate’s family was so sweet! love you guys and i appreciate the joy this podcast brings in tough times! ❤️

[@rellenoz]

I hope you're healthy and happy three years later

[@SeattleFunkDiscoChick]

Just seeing this the end of 2023 and loved seeing and hearing from Harper and Laura (Lara Bar). You two are definitely a great match! Loved seeing how Nate just starts rubbing Harpers back and they are such a loving family. Thank you for keeping it clean and acknowledging your relationship with Jesus Christ even tho it’s not “ cool” to a lot of people. He has made all the difference in my life! Oh and if you ever see this I totally related to you not being allowed to watch a lot of things growing up. My parents were the same except we couldn’t even go to the movie theater! Love the “who raised you?” bit when your dad took you to see a movie that had profanity! 😂

[@sandyevanski4929]

I’m such a huge Nate Bargatze fan and I’m really enjoying the podcasts. I really like his commitment to a clean show and keeping it politics free. Keep up the great work Nate! I’m sure SNL will invite you back again! 😉🦃🍀Happy Thanksgiving to your family!

I’m ashamed to say that i was not prepared for how sweet and grounded Laura is. I have a higher opinion of Nate now. 😂

[@ethanhiggins4649]

Every episode that comes out, I tell my wife “ME AND NATE ARE THE SAME PERSON”. Obsessed with golf, go on rants late at night that our wives don’t care about, spend way too much money on fast food. The more I learn the more it just hits the nail on the head. My dad even had a little magic kit that I’d beg him to pull out when I was a kid. He never made it in magic though.. mainly because he never paid his dues as a clown first. Love this show!!! Please never stop making it. You are all AWESOME!

[@ceoptimist]

Laura, your comment on keeping your personal concerns to yourself was quite an epiphiny for me...I realized that I NEVER do this! Any worry or concern I have, I broadcast to all that will listen! I'm going to try and really monitor and hopefully eliminate any unhelpful comments

[@you_beg_my_pardon]

If you watch people's reactions to different things in life, you can get a good gauge for what kind of filters you need to put on your future conversations with that person. People are judgemental by nature and most people don't like someone that is always talking. It gets annoying..

[@you_beg_my_pardon]

Good thing that you would least notice that you do that and you're taking action to change it. I used to do this when I was a teen, until I heard someone else doing it and then the comments that were made after they left, was enough for me to only add useful information to conversation.

[@jodidavis6595]

Good for you. That’s a sign of responsibility and maturity to realize you just might need to change a few things in your personal life

[@Trixie-k7h]

What a precious family! This gives me hope that it might all turn out okay after all. ❤

[@jennycallahan9746]

Its noticeable that no one is interrupting or talking over anyone else. Measured, thoughtful conversation. Respectful, and mature. Refreshing. Nice chemistry.

[@calexprenas]

Wow. First time listener/watcher, just discovered Nate a couple days ago (and love him). This is NOT what I expected! Laura is so chill and goes with the flow - she seems like she lets so much just roll off her back without even giving it much thought - props to her. Also expected a lot more humorous banter between them - wasn’t expecting them to be so matter of fact. And would never have imagined how dedicated and committed Nate has had to be to his comedy and career - his jokes and delivery are so chill I just figured the whole process was and that he was the same off stage as on stage. Educational. Adorable family - especially seeing Nick dote on his daughter.

[@jontydempsey8547]

Please never change ....I Iove every thing you do! Love your whole family!

[@sandirunge4841]

Great family. You can sure tell you both have been raised with by great parents. Laura couldn’t be more perfect. Looks like you have a great little girl too.

[@alisonpopolo5110]

This was adorable! Laura seems like such a sweetheart and you can really tell her and Nate really love each other. Harper is lucky to have parents like that, it’s something becoming less and less common! Harper was a show stealer at the end. 💖

I LOVED EVERY SINGLE MOMENT OF THIS PODCAST!!! IT IS SO WONDERFUL TO LISTEN TO ALL OF YOU TELLING FUNNY STORIES AND LAUGHING A LOT. IT WARMS MY HEART TO SEE THE LOVE YOU HAVE FOR ONE ANOTHER. NO SWEARING. JUST ENJOYING ALL OF YOU BEING TOGETHER. LAURA AND HARPER ADDED SUCH FUN AS WELL. LOVED HEARING HOW YOU AND LAURA MET. I REALLY ENJOYED HOW LAURA HANDLES YOU BEING GONE A LOT. MY HUSBAND HAS BEEN A BASKETBALL COACH FOR 56 YEARS......THE SAME NUMBER OF YEARS WE'VE BEEN MARRIED. SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE ASKED ME WHY IT DOESN'T BOTHER ME WHEN HE'S GONE SO MUCH. MY ANSWER IS, "IT NEVER BOTHERS ME BECAUSE THAT'S WHO HE IS." I THINK YOU, LAURA AND HARPER HAVE A BEAUTIFUL FAMILY WHO LOVES AND RESPECTS ONE ANOTHER. THE HUG YOU GAVE HARPER AT THE END WAS SO PRECIOUS. KEEP DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING, NATE. YOU ARE BRILLIANT. ♥️

Love your show! Listening to the comments about Discover Card reminds me of the first vacation my wife and I took almost 20 years ago. We went to Niagara Falls and stayed in Canada. Only card we had was a Discover card, which turns out wasn’t accepted most places in Canada, including our hotel. We didn’t have any other way to pay for anything. Thankfully we were able to use the card in the casino to get a cash withdrawal, otherwise we would have been stranded in Canada with no money and no place to stay.

[@paulm.e.mueller2903]

Aaron really missed a golden domed opportunity to shine the light with his Notre Dame wit and wisdom all while having Laura's back. When she was expounding on the fact that medicine continued to be effective past expiration (much to Nate's chagrin), Aaron should have pounced like the stealthy puma we all know him to truly be. Aaron could have said, "Medicine can never be completely useless no matter how much time passes. You see, it's like the terminal velocity of a squirrel. No matter how high it is, the noble squirrel will always survive a fall." I guess Brian could have added that too. Loved the episode. Nate and Laura's love for each other glows through the screen. Harper seems like a sweet young gal too. My wife and I are also blessed to have an 8 year old daughter (along with two rambunctious boys too) so we can relate to some of your family's adventures. I'll go proofread this now.

[@kimberlibrackett6404]

I seriously love you all ~ it's such a blessing to meet your family and see how supportive you are of each other. It's so refreshing to also listen for almost two hours and not hear anything negative or crude. I stumbled on some of your comedy a couple of months ago and now I just try and find everything I can on the internet that you have done because you are truly gifted and a complete joy to listen to and laugh with. I pray God continues to bless you and your precious family in every way - thank you for sharing your gift of comedy with all of us! :)

A good wife makes life a lot better.

Not from endless partying or multiple affairs.
