Nate Bargatze: The Tennessee Kid

I stumbled across this title while looking for something to watch on Netflix. At the time, I had no idea who Nate Bargatze was, but as a causal fan of stand-up comedy, I watched. I was not disappointed. Like many of the successful modern comics, he tells stories, and he does it very well. His delivery and timing are exceptional. This is one of the few titles on Netflix I have watched multiple times.

But The Rona has us all watching stuff we'd gloss right over normally, so figured I'd give him a shot.

It's worth noting, his horse bit? Completely relatable. I consider myself fairly intelligent, and I recall being told a few times that horses and cows do not lie down unless they're ill, so one day driving past a field, I see a horse on its side and immediately thought 'NOMG that's so sad! I should let the farmer know...' so I make my way to the farm house, for which I was sized up and down, then told 'are you effing re****ed? How do you sleep? Lying down? Well, that's how our horses sleep. Thanks.' So I definitely related. Maybe a little too much.

Funny guy; relatable, good delivery style, but my only complaint would be, we get it, you procreated. We don't need to see your kid doing your intro.

Surely worth a shot. Not the ROFL kinda standup, but if you like dry humor, this is almost a constant chuckle throughout the hour. Will be following this guy and will be watching his other content.

He did it, he swayed me into standup! I love Nate and his jokes. Very realistic and not too political, just simply enjoyable! I have watched it twice in a few days and I highly recommend!

Bargatze's jokes are good, but what makes his comedy work is him. With a conversational delivery, his relatability is his unabated strength. Being a not-super-masculine man from the south myself, that relatability is all the more enticing.
