Norm's always been one of my favorite comics, but this Reno story has solidified him as the GOAT to me. He realizes his friend is messing with him about moving to Reno, so he decides to just lean into it. Even calls him up later to be like, "so, when we moving to Reno?" Nick's like, "Norm, I'm not moving to reno, it was a joke." So what does Norm do, knowing he's probably not got long. Confide in a mutual acquaintance how much he's looking forward to moving to Reno with Nick, on the off chance they'll bring it up after he's gone.

[@STSGuitar16]

I think he was everyone’s family member in a way. I mean, it doesn’t matter the year, that man was in the mainstream for as long as anyone can remember. Whether it was his early SNL days, to his recurring character on The Middle, or his stint as Col. Sanders, Norm always popped in in our lives every little bit, and every interaction with him always left you just feeling good. Like you’d just seen a dear uncle, sometimes out of the blue. Norm just had that relatability and familial demeanor in a way that truly makes him feel like a family member. I really can’t think of another “celebrity” who I feel that same bond with than Norm, and like so many other family members his death was unexpected and made me really value all that he gave. One of a kind.

[@Katya_Lastochka]

Same. I just quietly introduced some Norm bits to family members a few years ago, and he quickly became our favorite comedian. When he died we all called each other to break the news, like if a family member died.

One thing I loved about Norm is that he never made fun of his friends when others expected him to. His bit on the Bob Saget roast was genius. If someone expected Norm to perform a different way, he did the opposite. Every single time. From the roast, to the Iowa State Fair, to his podcast and show. Even when Spade had him on his show and they wanted him to blast OJ and he refused to do it and claimed he was only guilty of being the “greatest man to ever carry a football.” One thing I did notice was that he LOVED Nick. On his podcast and show they had him on and he was so good. Norm loved Nick and you can tell it was mutual. Norm is my #1 comedian of all time. Yes that’s subjective, I love Carlin, and Pryor and Chappell and I really like Theo. But no one could get me laughing like Norm. The best of the best.

I love Nick's stories with Norm and how he imitates him

[@jimmiferfreddette8583]

Nicks stories of norm are the greatest. Spades as well

[@lolbored801]

Norm is hands down my favorite comic. His style of stand up and his delivery is absolutely hilarious to me. I wish I could have had a chance to see him live.

[@William.H.Bonney]

If anyone hasn’t seen the Norm Macdonald Live podcast with Nick you need to, it’s one of the most hilarious interviews of all time. RIP Norm.

The Mangrate ad is my favorite moment from any NML episode

Reminds me of that tradegy

Norm McDonald is a true legend, a true friend and a sweet heart for protecting everyone from his misery. R.i.p

A couple years back I worked at a nightclub in Vegas doing security and I was posted at Nicks table on the dance floor. Towards the middle of the night he was up on the platform where the dancers do their sets. At one point he stopped dancing, looked directly at me, smiled, ate his cigarette and dove like he was crowd surfing a bunch of ghosts and belly flopped the dance floor. 😆 He instantly got up from the ground and kept dancing. 🤣 It was hilarious!

[@swide2750]

that first story was actually really sweet always supportive for his friends

[@VangeliRock]

When Nick was on Norms vid podcast that was a hilarious epsiode. You could tell they understood each other.

[@MegadethTillDeth]

I never knew Swardson was close with Norm. This was a great clip, thanks for sharing.

[@tensegritywill]

The clip from The View demonstrated that Norm is hero. His calculated disruption of the The View's format transcends comedy. Norm was an honest soul and a generous showman. One of a kind.

[@Katya_Lastochka]

They claim to be half journalists, but they were just being aggressive partisans. Norm said he didn't intend to do the Clinton bit, but they brought it on themselves.

[@xavierpark5937]

Man it stills hurt , norm passing .

[@demetriuscooksey7147]

People will be telling Norm stories for generations to come.

[@TheGrenadeSlamDunc]

It’s always so sad to lose someone you deeply admire.

9:00 Theo busying out the “GTAC” 🧬 reference. Oh man, this boi has got serious range!

Yeah what the hell is that

I got to meet him 1 time in a casino. He was so nice and talked to me for over a half hour and didn't mind me asking questions. He lost and I won a whole $200. He got up and said "at least you won some toilet paper" and hugged me as we both laughed as he walked away ❤️

[@hatcherbyron]

Man, all those guys (Spade, Sandler, Norm, Nick) - all legends. I hate that I’m just now coming around to Norm. Should have given this guy a binge watch long ago!

[@GyzelE]

I envy the fact that you likely still have so many great Norm gems to uncover.

[@mrs.featherbottom5901]

There is so much to watch

[@yogibearstie]

Thank you for sharing Norm MacDonald stories.

[@pressedinproductions]

We’ve lost so many greats, but Norm just hits so much harder

[@NathanVarner1]

Norm’s phone going off during that interview is forever going to be a highlight of my lifetime. Really miss this man.

[@jengleheimerschmitt7941]

I'm sure Norm took the gun joke that far just to make people get mad at Swardson. Exactly his style.

[@newmanifest]

Norm was the best. And he was the ultimate troll on The View. The way he punked those sanctimonious cows will always remain a classic.

[@mrpancakedemon7454]

I miss norm ❤.

[@idab6864]

I deeply respect norm for his commitment to himself. There's a solitude in committing to long jokes that will only be understood later on, or even after your death. His ability to be him fully and truthfully always is so commendable. I miss him and hope wherever he is he's better off.

[@ragnarlothbrook4652]

Rip professor MacDonald. Theo definitely owns a doghouse.

[@mattcanfield6384]

Norm was a real genuine person and my favorite comedian I miss him constantly don't let his style go away he was amazing brilliant and witty

[@joemade7071]

This clip made weirdly comfortable

[@JonnyDIY]

Poor Nick, I loved anytime I saw those 2 together 😄💕👍

[@DustinMercer]

"All right, manslaughter" put me over the edge. And it wouldn't have been nearly as funny if those hairdos hadn't have been so clueless.

[@MRmanbearpig1993]

1st story......enough to make a tough man cry 😢

[@ohstirfry]

I like hearing these stories about Norm. I usually don’t care about celebrities, but for some reason Norms loss is an actual loss to me. True GOAT 🐐

[@Wade-22]

I agree, for some reason losing Norm hit hard on me.
