Dude, I relate SO much to Nate on this. I watch my kids play Minecraft and I just DON'T GET IT. I could play SIMS for hours and hours. Making people, locking them in a small space b/c they annoy me only to find they are dead....meh.
The discussion around how the word mature is pronounced connected with me on a deeply spiritual level. My mom can’t pronounce anything on the menu at a Mexican restaurant, but she has the nerve to say mature the way Boondoggle says it...like she grew up in the Monopoly guy’s mansion. Unbelievable!
Hello, Folks! I feel like every episode we are one step closer to finding out that Aaron didn’t actually go to Notre Dame, but instead went to the South Harmon Institute of Technology from the movie Accepted, where the students just made up their own classes and everyone gets in. Also, hearing that Butterfinger took a class with JUST the teacher is the most predictable thing I’ve heard on the podcast. Love the show guys; keep up the great work!
In a humorous twist, Bartelby is the name of the main protagonist in the movie Accepted. And yes I truly hope they make Nate read this as a double comment feature in the next episode.
I dont mean to be so offtopic but does someone know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account..? I was dumb forgot the login password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me.
Awesome! An episode about video games! This is going to be hilarious! Nate: Here's a story about the day my grandfather died. Also, let's discuss animal murders.
Aaron, I was 100% that guy in high school. When friends would ask “Wanna play some Guitar Hero?” I would always scoff and say “Guitar Hero? PUH LEEASE! I can play this in real life!” I would even play along on my real instrument when someone was trying to play the game, and they’d say “Can you like, stop? We get it.” I was great at parties. Love the show. Thanks for everything you guys do.
Nate your comment "What did you do ,throw a ball against a wall?" Brought back a memory of me growing up in the seventies, bored, my mom taught me a game called 7up that consisted of 7 different ways to throw a ball against a wall. I spent some considerable time at it.
@1:21:49 My Wii joke! Since Bingo is doing my material on the podcast now I feel like I should get a writing credit and a cut of that advertisement revenue. thanks for the shout-out, boys. I'm pretty sure I've been mentioned on this podcast more often than any other comic (besides Seinfeld).
Y’all should do an actual Aaronland episode for a topic of one of your podcasts. Record it on Aaron’s birthday and just give he and Brian free reign to interrupt Nate whenever and lead their own podcast.
I laughed way too hard when Nate said a kid would slap Billy Bob in the face if he called them immature and then laughed even harder when Nate said the parents would ask what happened and then slap him too 😂😂 I can’t express enough how much I appreciate the mindless comedy (compliment) during this year’s busy season as a tax accountant. I just started the podcast a couple of weeks ago but I am almost caught up. You guys help me get through the long days!
My parents got my sister and me a Nintendo for Christmas of probably ‘90 with mario bros and Tetris and after making us go to be early on Christmas night, my mom stayed up till about 3am and beat Mario bros. She was up waiting on us to wake up the next morning to tell us she beat it. I’ll never forget being mad that my mom beat my game before I could. We were home-schooled in elementary and she would make us do our school work while she played Dr. Mario. To this day my mom was always my least favorite teacher because of that.
I left this comment on the last podcast, but I left it pretty late and I wasn’t sure if you’d see it. Pasting it here because I really want y’all to know how great I think you are. Guys, thank you so much for this podcast. From the bottom of my heart, I don’t know how to say thank you enough. You’ve gotten me through the loss of my grandmother and two dogs (it’s been a rough few months). Example: we just euthanized one of our dogs yesterday. Our vet is still mostly curbside due to covid. While we were in our car waiting to go inside and say goodbye to our beloved dog of 15 years, we saw the cremation guy pull up. How did we know that’s who it was? He brought in two bags of ashes (we recognized the bags because we received one exactly like it when our other dog died a few months ago), and then he brought out two trash bags that most definitely contained deceased animals. He put them in the back end of his pickup truck and just drove off. My first thought was: I didn’t think they rolled these guys up in red carpet, but I could have lived without thinking about it at all. My second thought: this will make for an excellent dark joke someday. I like to think that months of dedicated listening helped me cope with such a heartbreaking moment. So, thanks again, guys. Y’all are the best. I tell all of my friends about you in hopes of getting you some new fans, but nobody really listens to me. Maybe if I continue to badger them about how great you all are, they’ll eventually turn in just to shut me up. Here’s hoping. Update: my sister and her husband are now HUGE fans.
I own a food truck and one of my cashiers also works at Liberty Christian. He texted me saying you were there and I literally lost my mind. I was 30 minutes away working an event and never wanted to go back to school so quickly!
Nate always strikes me as a really sharp, intelligent and kind comedian. One of these surmised traits is consistently being proven wrong. This makes everything better in my opinion. Such a fun pod!
Watched this episode with a growing sense of anticipation for a mention of Frogger and the Seinfeld where George tries to save the machine with his high score on it. Didn’t happen. UNBELIEVABLE!! Well, at least there was a reference to the Human Fund. Was never into video games, but Seinfeld is another matter. Dashed hopes aside, thanks for a great show. Keep up the good work guys.
I was volunteering at a nursing home once, and a smiling old man calmly wheeled up to me , leaned in and whispered “please get me out of here” in a quiet panicked voice. I still wonder if he was just insane, or if I was part of a kidnapping. Thank you Nate, Aaron, and Black Bean!
Love the show boys! Tuning in every week has been a great way to keep smiling and laughing throughout a very horrible year. Nate, Aaron, and Bagel Bite.. keep up the great stories and the great work!
When Beanbag said “5 million dollars worth of money” and nobody caught it, goes to show that neither Aaron nor Nathaniel really listen to the little old fella on the end.... love the show guys!!!
I took a course when I was in college called Sleep & Wellness, where we would spend the first 30 minutes of an hour long class meditating. The highest grade I’d ever received while at college
I am a student at Virginia Tech and I can confirm that Enter Sandman is the most exhilarating experience I have ever had. We have registered on the seismograph (Newt and Baghdad, that's a tool that records seismic activity (i.e. earthquakes), (i.e. is an abbreviation for "id est" meaning "for example")) 3 times. That is the most out of any other college stadium.
Yes! A Nate rant! It took awhile to get to it but always a bit satisfying probably because I usually agree with them and I love to rant too! Btw saw Nate in Phoenix and it was a fabulous show. I know he is fine tuning material but I felt like he had the entire room from the opening line to the final one! What a great time. Really hadn’t been anywhere in a crowd for literally a year. Thanks and continued success on your shows!
Hey Nate, Aaron, and bag of bones, Love the show! Saw you perform in Phoenix this weekend and it was worth every penny. Wanted to yell “hello folks” when you didn’t open with it, but i wimped out. Keep up the good work. Only comedian I’ll pay to see! Dr. Cameron
I think a 'Research of Surveys' episode would help Nate immensely. He gets so flabbergasted by stats and percentages of any kind. My favorite part is that he truly doesn't trust what the news or what popular media says because they can be fabricating it (which I respect) but the minute you start talking about Big Foot or Aliens he's like "hey listen, I believe all of this stuff because no one has science against it"
Speaking of lay-away and video games, in 1988/1989 my brother and I were in 3rd and 4th grade. We split a paper route in our neighborhood and each put a big ticket item on layaway and paid toward it with our paper route money each week. (I desperately needed a ten speed bike, my brother: the NES). The night he finally paid off the Nintendo at Best, he had just enough time to figure out how to set it up and connect it to our TV before my parents sent him to bed without even turning it on (school night, 3rd grader). The next day, my brother Joe raced home from school (literally, we walked to and from school each day, but thay day he ran home) only to find our mom in the living room "just trying it out." She was several levels into Mario Bros on the game system my brother had delivered hundreds of papers to earn money for, made weekly payments for over 10 weeks, and waited a whole night and eternity of a school day to finally play. To this day, this is one of those stories that comes up at every holiday family meal: "Remember the time you wouldn't let me play my Nintendo the night I bought it but then played it the next day while I was at school?!?!?" ******* Joe and I saw you (Nate) in Indy in October 2019 and LOVED the show. Missed out on tickets for April 2021 while trying to figure out our soccer schedule for that weekend. Indy loves Nate - they sold out first and fast! 😭
Comment for AaronLand, great show today Aaron. So inspirational and moving. This Brian Bates guy you have on, top notch! You should see if he could stick around for Nateland. He could replace Bloomingdales, that guy is just...I mean just...he’s so...I I don’t remember what I was saying.
Folks, I clocked it... Nate, Bishop, and Friendship went on a "ma-chure/ma-tour" rant for over 4 minutes. True ground breaking podcast! Keep up the good work, makes my Wednesday worth getting out of bed. Joe File
How about an episode on childhood? I love the comparisons between Nate, Aaron, and Balloon’s experiences. Playgrounds?Recess? Parenting? How much freedom did you have as a kid? What crazy things did you do? How does it compare to how kids are raised today?
My brilliant scientist wife took a class in college that cut up dead bodies. It was called "Gross Anatomy." I think they took gross from the Latin meaning "complete or large scale" and not "disgusting." I took less intensive classes like "Film Appreciation." I'll go proofread this now.
2010 My collage roommate played one video game for 6 hours a day and didn’t talk to much. After a month I asked what the heck are you playing all day. He said “Minecraft $15 it’s not out yet still in alpha”. I downloaded the game just so we would have something to talk about. It’s basically playing legos on the computer but with zombies and was really fun. I had no idea it would be the most successful game ever. Great episode guys keep it up.
The podcast has grown so much since the first episode back in July. I thought Aaron was a Luke Combs wanna be and I thought Bald Brian (not from Adam Carolla) was just the sound guy. Nate has come a long way since the milk joke. On other podcasts he's referred to as "Red State Nate" even though he started comedy in Chicago and moved to New York. It's fun to know that Nashville is another comedy hot spot with you three! You guys giving each other a hard time makes me laugh. Thanks!
FINALLY!!! an episode on video games!! This is one of my favorite topics and I'm so glad you guys could do this!!! I love this podcast, but no matter what I say my friends won't listen. I try and tell them that this is the greatest thing ever but they won't hear it! I feel like Bridget defending the HedgeFund people...... Anyway I love this PodCast and I believe that it is the greatest Pod to ever be cast! Bye Folks!!
My freshman year of college I took an Intro to Cinema class. However, I partied so much I got a C in the class. Granted, it was the beginning of online homework and I would just always forget to do the homework before the deadline. I graduated from high school 8th in my class and got a C in into to cinema. Don't worry though, I got my life together and I'm doing UNBELIEVABLE! Love you guys!
In episode 14 Nate says “it’s the Paul Allen cruise I don’t like to mention it” but he brings it up practically every episode. Barnacle boy need to stop him from repeating himself. Love the podcast despite what my comment may suggest. You guys are the best
Hello folks! I’ve been a fan of Nate for several years, and I’ve converted all my family to fans as well. We’re going to one of your shows in October. But I only recently discovered the podcast and I kid you not, I’ve watched like 95% of the podcasts over the last two weeks while playing that golf game - 2K21. Anyway, I love the podcast and I love Barndoor and even that Weber guy is okay for a genius. Love you guys, and keep up the good work!
Hey y’all. I love the podcast and you guys are the only show I listen to religiously. My favorite part is yall name each show based on the topics but then the episode gets hijacked by Nate going off on a tangent about something unrelated like bojangles pronunciation of the word mature. And then the last 10 minutes of each episode is scrambling to wrap up the actual topic. Can’t get enough of this podcast. Great work!
Aaron is spot on with Red Dead Redemption 2. I’ve played it through 4x and still love it. I’m so glad someone mentioned this game, and I was pretty sure it wasn’t going to be Butter Biscuit.
i pulled out my Super Nintendo from 1991 and it wouldn't turn on. I took it completely apart, cleaned it with duster and alcohol wipes, put it back together and now its as good as new. didnt take me long to get through Mario Bros, they don't make them like they use to. The Japanese were way ahead of their time, I also learned there is a little watch battery in every single one of those old games... mind blowing
I'm the same age as Nate and can't believe it's honestly taken this long for someone to call me Nest-eater. Made my day, love the podcast guys! (Also, I'm an adjunct professor and get a massive kick out of your adjunct professor jokes.)
24:30 had me concerned he was having a stroke "less yea uh we're do one extra just to uh uhhh S. C. I uh ah hnn" I was legit concerned until Aaron addressed you with laughter. Thanks guys, love the podcast
You all talking about college reminded me of the Patton Oswalt bit about a class he took "physics for poets" y'all are great can't wait to see Nate's new special
Hey guys, love the show. Today in one of my classes my professor used the word 'germane' and I'm happy to report that after all your talk and teasing about it I still have absolutely no idea what the word means. Anyway, if Nate, Aaron, and Biblioteca would do some kind of video game playing challenge/special episode, I think that would be hilarious and the fans would love it.
Nate, you are 100% correct, kids today have lost the innovation of figuring things out. Nothing has made this more apparent than having my son home from school this year, he thinks I am the answer for absolutely everything and my most used phrase to him is, “What are your resources?” (Not to be confused with, ‘What are your sources.’) Being resourceful was a natural ability for those of us who grew up in the 80’s, which is why it drives me insane when he doesn’t consider any solution before asking me.
I remember going to Sears and my parents buying me the 1st Nintendo. Came with the console, Super Mario Bros, Hogans Alley and the shooter gun. All for $99. So much fun.
When Aaron was describing his WoW experience, I couldn't help but think of Leroy Jenkins. I could just see Aaron's guild making plans; his fellow player opening a present; and then Leroy Jenkins just storming in mid present opening. I guess that's not how it happened, but it would have been so much better if it did.
I love that this pod makes me question so much of my own vernacular. I actually had to google "mature" so that I could hear it pronounced. Arron, I'm sad you didn't mentioned "Leroy Jenkins". Nate would LOVE this story/video.
Hello Nate, Aaron, and Brown Sugar! This is Alex Holehouse in Detroit Lakes, Minnesota. What is the origin of comedians saying they "killed" or they "murdered." I mean it sounds right when you say it, but when Nate was talking about doing that high school show and he says, with such emphasis, that he murdered, I couldn't help but chuckle. I just imagined, "Nate was so funny, and they laughed so hard, that he decided to make sure some or all of the people in attendance weren't alive by the time the show was over." Kinda a wild thing to do to a bunch of high school students and 10 o'clock in the morning. Love the show! Keep it up!
My guess is that they probably looked at the average number of guitars sold over a certain period prior to Guitar Hero being released and then saw a massive uptick in sales after the game was released, then subtracted the new number by the old number and divided that by the number of Guitar Hero games sold over that timeframe to get that percentage.
Nate, as a Tennessean I can confirm people say “ideal” when meaning to say “idea.” This is totally a Tennessee thing, a couple other misused words specific to Tennessee and perhaps the South as a region; “FUTHER” when meaning to say “FURTHER”, “somewheres” pluralized for only God knows why when meant to say “somewhere”. Shout outs to AaronLand and BraStrap, Aaron is usually somewheres else in his own world and Brain, being futher along in age is always supportive of Nate’s ideals, like a nice uncle.
The Mount Rushmore of Things That Make Nate Furious: - Pronunciations - People who don't have kids because they think the world doesn't deserve their kids - Tomatoes and/or onions - College Honorable mention: 1.) Stats 2.) People hating Dane Cook
Guys I dated a girl named Emma Tour in college and I'm here to tell you she didn't think my immature jokes were nearly as funny as I did. On the flip side, I did just make that up so take it for what a grain of salt is worthy.
I was 10 when the PS2 came out. I remember saving money to buy it, walking in to Toys R Us with cash in hand and looking at the brand new PS2’s. As Nate would say, my “Mayberry head” thought it would be better to buy the recently discounted PlayStation 1 (Gray one), a few games, and a Razor scooter that I could share with my friends. Two days later my scooter was stolen and I was stuck with a game console that couldn’t support the games I wanted to play. Thanks for what y’all do, Wednesdays are better because of y’all!
I can't pick seats for shows. I'm terrible. Saw you in Dallas, Texas, in October 2019 at the Majestic Theater. Great set. My wife had just finished cancer treatments in August and got the all clear from her doctors. We're both huge fans and I wanted to surprise her with tickets to your show. I looked online and thought I picked pretty good seats. I clearly can't figure out a theater diagram. We were on the VERY back row on the first level of the theater. They set up a row of chairs behind the actual seats at the very back of the theater. We could barely see you. If we hadn't seen all your stuff online and on NETFLIX we couldn't verify it was even you. That's how small you looked from the temporary seating. The couple next to us were almost as entertaining as you. The guy was hammered. I mean he was lock yourself out of your hotel room naked drunk. She was not happy. I mean really not happy. He passed out on MY SHOULDER about 3/4 of the way through your set, and she got up and said, "he's all yours" and left. Never seen these people before. Unlike Nate, this dude was not one of the better facer forwarders in the room.
I find it unbelievable that Nate, Aaron, and Brady have managed to make calendars more fun to listen to people talk about than video games. Also, I think Nate has a whole bunch of college fueled frustration built up so maybe consider an episode about colleges.
My five year old daughter and I look forward to Wednesday nights every week. She loves Nate, Aaron, & Banana! Keep up the great work gentleman, stay germane!
Love the Nateland aka Aaronland show! Nate, if VA Tech intro gets you fired up, you, Aaron and Bill need to visit Fayetteville, AR to hear a Razorback “Hog Call” in a packed FB stadium, BB arena or Baseball field! (But not against Vandy because the crowd won’t be as big-sorry it’s the truth) Go Hogs Go!
I forgot where it was, but when Nate mentioned kids that were really good at Mortal Kombat as UNBELIEVABLE.. I think that's when it first became his word. Young Nate 'IT'S UNBELIEVABLE WHAT JASON CAN DO PLAYING MORTAL KOMBAT'
Fun fact: in grand theft auto 4, there’s a comedy club you can go into snd katt williams is the act. It’s a great easter egg but I wonder what kid out there is tired of killing cops and hookers and decides I could use a laugh right now let me see if there’s a virtual comedy club in here. Love the pod, keep up the great work
Second comment...Video games have been a significant part of my life in terms of bonding with my brother. I think Nate would love to watch Speed Runners. My brother is one now. Bascially, people who play games over and over until they can play them almost blind folded. Games that take people months take these people hours and sometimes minutes. It's wild. Shout-out Breakfast Bates, who still sees in black and white.
One of my semesters of "college" included the courses of Fluid Mechanics, Physics II, Mechanics of Deformable Bodies, Multivariable Calculus, and Differential Equations. Nut Butter's holistic review of the importance of college is spot on. "College is a joke"...such fundamental classes are unnecessary and everyone knows it!
We had a Magnavox Odyssey2. KC Munchkin was their version of Pac-man. Other games were Monkeyshines, Thunderball and Pickaxe Pete. Fun times all around
I love the idea of Bon Jovi’s empty speech class being a bringer show where the professor makes him bring five people to class or he doesn’t get to do his speech for the day.
Commenting from 41,000 ft in the air on a flight back to Birmingham. Talking about the turkeys made me think. This Thanksgiving, you guys should do your own Turkeyr drop like WKRP in Cincinnati did. I think our buddy Bates would make the perfect Les Nessman. The First Annual Nateland Turkey Drop at Opry Mills. I think it would be a hit!
Hello Folks! This was the only episode I was hoping for more golf talk from Nate. Tiger Woods always was my jam. What is Bernard’s twitch name? I could watch him wander around confused for hours. “Who just shot me? Why won’t they leave me alone? I don’t like this game!”
I used to think Nate was a pretty boring guy, but after discovering he plays the most exciting of all games, golf video games, I think he's one of the most exciting people out there.
I would say as a kid who grew up with games I never felt different after playing one but music and gangster rap did have me feeling like a 5th grader with enemies
Hello folks! First, it's unreal that you read my gym membership comment. My family thinks I'm famous now. Second, listening to Aaron talk about World of Warcraft gave me serious flashbacks. When you go to college sometimes you don't pick your roommates. Living in an apartment off campus with 5 other dudes, one was addicted to World of Warcraft. He would play all night and sleep all day. He was also 29 living with 20 year olds. It was so bad that he would start cooking meals IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT and go back to playing. He would then forget about them instantly and leave them on the stove or in the oven. I woke up several times to smoke alarms. Ever wonder what happens to hard boil eggs after you boil all the water out for hours? I know...and it's not cool, I can tell you that much. I wish that was my only story...it is not.
The dude also had a pretty attractive girlfriend somehow. He would forget about plans he made with her. He slept through a date they planned. I have no idea how he lived like that. Long story short - They are married. Sometimes life is unexplainable.
Nate on Minecraft: I never got it, you just build a world?
Nate on Sims: It’s great you get to build a whole world, it can be really fun
Dude, I relate SO much to Nate on this. I watch my kids play Minecraft and I just DON'T GET IT. I could play SIMS for hours and hours. Making people, locking them in a small space b/c they annoy me only to find they are dead....meh.
Duality of Man
Haha loved this
L
Aaron's refusal to admit he was wrong to call the PS1 white was a marvel to behold.
The discussion around how the word mature is pronounced connected with me on a deeply spiritual level. My mom can’t pronounce anything on the menu at a Mexican restaurant, but she has the nerve to say mature the way Boondoggle says it...like she grew up in the Monopoly guy’s mansion. Unbelievable!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hehehe

There could be a whole television show tracking Nate's journey through college. I'd watch it on repeat.
Y E S, sign me up...also... Aaron's sounds fun too. He found friends!
Do you really want to watch a show that revolves around a bunch of people waking early and doing class outside at a picnic table.
Aaron acts like his chair is a helix mattress
It might be. #nextsponsor
Awesome! An episode about video games! This is going to be hilarious!
Nate: Here's a story about the day my grandfather died. Also, let's discuss animal murders.
Aaron, I was 100% that guy in high school. When friends would ask “Wanna play some Guitar Hero?” I would always scoff and say “Guitar Hero? PUH LEEASE! I can play this in real life!”
I would even play along on my real instrument when someone was trying to play the game, and they’d say “Can you like, stop? We get it.” I was great at parties.
Love the show. Thanks for everything you guys do.
Nate your comment "What did you do ,throw a ball against a wall?" Brought back a memory of me growing up in the seventies, bored, my mom taught me a game called 7up that consisted of 7 different ways to throw a ball against a wall. I spent some considerable time at it.
I could not breathe when he said the "tennis ball against a wall" quote. I couldn't even get through telling my husband why I was laughing so hard.
You guys treated Caleb like an adjunct guest on the show. Arguably the most knowledgeable guest to date but couldn’t even get a seat at the table..
Ya he's apparently the resident video game expert. Could've been a real guest for this episode 😂
At least give da dude a flippin 🎤 mic!!

Y’all should do an actual Aaronland episode for a topic of one of your podcasts. Record it on Aaron’s birthday and just give he and Brian free reign to interrupt Nate whenever and lead their own podcast.

As an Auburn grad, I appreciated the shoutout for the eagle, but I lost it with the reveal that Felix went to Auburn. So good

It’s official. Nate, Aaron, and Bouncy Castle need to dedicate an entire episode to “stats.”
Hahaha agreed
I think Nate would really enjoy the book HOW TO LIE WITH STATISTICS by Darrell Huff, but that would just add fuel to the fire.
I laughed way too hard when Nate said a kid would slap Billy Bob in the face if he called them immature and then laughed even harder when Nate said the parents would ask what happened and then slap him too 😂😂 I can’t express enough how much I appreciate the mindless comedy (compliment) during this year’s busy season as a tax accountant.

Guys, thank you so much for this podcast. From the bottom of my heart, I don’t know how to say thank you enough. You’ve gotten me through the loss of my grandmother and two dogs (it’s been a rough few months). Example: we just euthanized one of our dogs yesterday. Our vet is still mostly curbside due to covid.

I love how Banjo claims to have not played video games in 27 years when it's obvious that he's the guild leader from the Leeroy Jenkins video.
LEEEEEEROYYYYY JENKINS!
I was desperately hoping for a second that Aaron was going to go there with his story. Hilarious clip...😂
Nate always strikes me as a really sharp, intelligent and kind comedian. One of these surmised traits is consistently being proven wrong.
This makes everything better in my opinion. Such a fun pod!
I love how Aaron shows a black screen with a white dot and static noises, and old man Bates is impressed
Watched this episode with a growing sense of anticipation for a mention of Frogger and the Seinfeld where George tries to save the machine with his high score on it. Didn’t happen. UNBELIEVABLE!! Well, at least there was a reference to the Human Fund. Was never into video games, but Seinfeld is another matter. Dashed hopes aside, thanks for a great show. Keep up the good work guys.
I was volunteering at a nursing home once, and a smiling old man calmly wheeled up to me , leaned in and whispered “please get me out of here” in a quiet panicked voice. I still wonder if he was just insane, or if I was part of a kidnapping.
Thank you Nate, Aaron, and Black Bean!
Love the show boys! Tuning in every week has been a great way to keep smiling and laughing throughout a very horrible year. Nate, Aaron, and Bagel Bite.. keep up the great stories and the great work!
When Beanbag said “5 million dollars worth of money” and nobody caught it, goes to show that neither Aaron nor Nathaniel really listen to the little old fella on the end.... love the show guys!!!
Aren't you him, "Brad"?
I took a course when I was in college called Sleep & Wellness, where we would spend the first 30 minutes of an hour long class meditating. The highest grade I’d ever received while at college
Where did you go? I actually had to try and learn?! This is such crap that people go to college and get classes like this!
I can confirm these classes exist. I am a TA for a class called “mindfulness and mental health” and we spend about 30 min meditating each class...
I absolutely lost it when you talked about Broccoli getting ready for his career by being the only one in his speech class.
I am a student at Virginia Tech and I can confirm that Enter Sandman is the most exhilarating experience I have ever had. We have registered on the seismograph (Newt and Baghdad, that's a tool that records seismic activity (i.e. earthquakes), (i.e. is an abbreviation for "id est" meaning "for example")) 3 times. That is the most out of any other college stadium.
“Half grey half white” - There’s actually a name for grey mixed with white called Yep, Still Grey or light grey if you wanna get specific.
Yes! A Nate rant! It took awhile to get to it but always a bit satisfying probably because I usually agree with them and I love to rant too! Btw saw Nate in Phoenix and it was a fabulous show. I know he is fine tuning material but I felt like he had the entire room from the opening line to the final one! What a great time. Really hadn’t been anywhere in a crowd for literally a year. Thanks and continued success on your shows!
Hey Nate, Aaron, and bag of bones,
Love the show! Saw you perform in Phoenix this weekend and it was worth every penny. Wanted to yell “hello folks” when you didn’t open with it, but i wimped out. Keep up the good work. Only comedian I’ll pay to see!
Dr. Cameron
I think a 'Research of Surveys' episode would help Nate immensely. He gets so flabbergasted by stats and percentages of any kind. My favorite part is that he truly doesn't trust what the news or what popular media says because they can be fabricating it (which I respect) but the minute you start talking about Big Foot or Aliens he's like "hey listen, I believe all of this stuff because no one has science against it"
Speaking of lay-away and video games, in 1988/1989 my brother and I were in 3rd and 4th grade. We split a paper route in our neighborhood and each put a big ticket item on layaway and paid toward it with our paper route money each week. (I desperately needed a ten speed bike, my brother: the NES). The night he finally paid off the Nintendo at Best, he had just enough time to figure out how to set it up and connect it to our TV before my parents sent him to bed without even turning it on (school night, 3rd grader). The next day, my brother Joe raced home from school (literally, we walked to and from school each day, but thay day he ran home) only to find our mom in the living room "just trying it out." She was several levels into Mario Bros on the game system my brother had delivered hundreds of papers to earn money for, made weekly payments for over 10 weeks, and waited a whole night and eternity of a school day to finally play. To this day, this is one of those stories that comes up at every holiday family meal: "Remember the time you wouldn't let me play my Nintendo the night I bought it but then played it the next day while I was at school?!?!?"
*******
Joe and I saw you (Nate) in Indy in October 2019 and LOVED the show. Missed out on tickets for April 2021 while trying to figure out our soccer schedule for that weekend. Indy loves Nate - they sold out first and fast! 😭
Comment for AaronLand, great show today Aaron. So inspirational and moving. This Brian Bates guy you have on, top notch! You should see if he could stick around for Nateland. He could replace Bloomingdales, that guy is just...I mean just...he’s so...I I don’t remember what I was saying.
Folks, I clocked it... Nate, Bishop, and Friendship went on a "ma-chure/ma-tour" rant for over 4 minutes. True ground breaking podcast! Keep up the good work, makes my Wednesday worth getting out of bed.
Joe File
How about an episode on childhood? I love the comparisons between Nate, Aaron, and Balloon’s experiences. Playgrounds?Recess? Parenting? How much freedom did you have as a kid? What crazy things did you do? How does it compare to how kids are raised today?
My brilliant scientist wife took a class in college that cut up dead bodies. It was called "Gross Anatomy." I think they took gross from the Latin meaning "complete or large scale" and not "disgusting." I took less intensive classes like "Film Appreciation."
I'll go proofread this now.
2010 My collage roommate played one video game for 6 hours a day and didn’t talk to much. After a month I asked what the heck are you playing all day. He said “Minecraft $15 it’s not out yet still in alpha”. I downloaded the game just so we would have something to talk about. It’s basically playing legos on the computer but with zombies and was really fun. I had no idea it would be the most successful game ever. Great episode guys keep it up.
The podcast has grown so much since the first episode back in July. I thought Aaron was a Luke Combs wanna be and I thought Bald Brian (not from Adam Carolla) was just the sound guy. Nate has come a long way since the milk joke. On other podcasts he's referred to as "Red State Nate" even though he started comedy in Chicago and moved to New York. It's fun to know that Nashville is another comedy hot spot with you three! You guys giving each other a hard time makes me laugh. Thanks!
"Mindless Chores on a Digital Farm" - title of Breakfast's next album?!
When Brogans asks “which Wal-Mart you talking about?” he means “which county?”
also just LOL at that question
Perfect comment.
FINALLY!!! an episode on video games!! This is one of my favorite topics and I'm so glad you guys could do this!!! I love this podcast, but no matter what I say my friends won't listen. I try and tell them that this is the greatest thing ever but they won't hear it! I feel like Bridget defending the HedgeFund people......
Anyway I love this PodCast and I believe that it is the greatest Pod to ever be cast! Bye Folks!!
My freshman year of college I took an Intro to Cinema class. However, I partied so much I got a C in the class. Granted, it was the beginning of online homework and I would just always forget to do the homework before the deadline. I graduated from high school 8th in my class and got a C in into to cinema. Don't worry though, I got my life together and I'm doing UNBELIEVABLE! Love you guys!
In episode 14 Nate says “it’s the Paul Allen cruise I don’t like to mention it” but he brings it up practically every episode. Barnacle boy need to stop him from repeating himself. Love the podcast despite what my comment may suggest. You guys are the best
Nate, Aron and bookie ookie have made a truly baptacious podcast full of crambodacious moments and fligmagamical chemistry.
Hello folks! I’ve been a fan of Nate for several years, and I’ve converted all my family to fans as well. We’re going to one of your shows in October. But I only recently discovered the podcast and I kid you not, I’ve watched like 95% of the podcasts over the last two weeks while playing that golf game - 2K21. Anyway, I love the podcast and I love Barndoor and even that Weber guy is okay for a genius. Love you guys, and keep up the good work!
Hey y’all. I love the podcast and you guys are the only show I listen to religiously. My favorite part is yall name each show based on the topics but then the episode gets hijacked by Nate going off on a tangent about something unrelated like bojangles pronunciation of the word mature. And then the last 10 minutes of each episode is scrambling to wrap up the actual topic. Can’t get enough of this podcast. Great work!
Aaron is spot on with Red Dead Redemption 2. I’ve played it through 4x and still love it. I’m so glad someone mentioned this game, and I was pretty sure it wasn’t going to be Butter Biscuit.
47:25 "that's the other first one"
i pulled out my Super Nintendo from 1991 and it wouldn't turn on. I took it completely apart, cleaned it with duster and alcohol wipes, put it back together and now its as good as new. didnt take me long to get through Mario Bros, they don't make them like they use to. The Japanese were way ahead of their time, I also learned there is a little watch battery in every single one of those old games... mind blowing
Hello 4am folks! Crippling insomnia strikes again
I'm right there with ya folks!
Aaron probably gasped when he first saw 'Tennis for Two'
I'm the same age as Nate and can't believe it's honestly taken this long for someone to call me Nest-eater. Made my day, love the podcast guys! (Also, I'm an adjunct professor and get a massive kick out of your adjunct professor jokes.)
Contra was SO Awesome! Up up down down left right left right B A select start.
24:30 had me concerned he was having a stroke "less yea uh we're do one extra just to uh uhhh S. C. I uh ah hnn" I was legit concerned until Aaron addressed you with laughter. Thanks guys, love the podcast
You all talking about college reminded me of the Patton Oswalt bit about a class he took "physics for poets" y'all are great can't wait to see Nate's new special
I love Aaron's laugh but Nate's laugh is the absolute best
Hey guys, love the show.
Today in one of my classes my professor used the word 'germane' and I'm happy to report that after all your talk and teasing about it I still have absolutely no idea what the word means.
Anyway, if Nate, Aaron, and Biblioteca would do some kind of video game playing challenge/special episode, I think that would be hilarious and the fans would love it.
Nate, you are 100% correct, kids today have lost the innovation of figuring things out. Nothing has made this more apparent than having my son home from school this year, he thinks I am the answer for absolutely everything and my most used phrase to him is, “What are your resources?” (Not to be confused with, ‘What are your sources.’) Being resourceful was a natural ability for those of us who grew up in the 80’s, which is why it drives me insane when he doesn’t consider any solution before asking me.
I like how this show is the embodiment of Nate’s joke of how his generation connects gen X with the millennials
I'm a millenial...granted an ELDER millenial and I relate more with Nate than my sister who is a Gen X. ::shrugs::
I can imagine Brine sitting in his 1 student speech class as the professor announces the class' average grade and Brine asks what he got.
I remember going to Sears and my parents buying me the 1st Nintendo. Came with the console, Super Mario Bros, Hogans Alley and the shooter gun. All for $99. So much fun.
WHOA FOLKS! Bunion and Hamburger Helper having never heard of Contra is unbelievable. Keep up the good work guys. Love the podcast.
When Aaron was describing his WoW experience, I couldn't help but think of Leroy Jenkins. I could just see Aaron's guild making plans; his fellow player opening a present; and then Leroy Jenkins just storming in mid present opening. I guess that's not how it happened, but it would have been so much better if it did.
I love that this pod makes me question so much of my own vernacular. I actually had to google "mature" so that I could hear it pronounced.
Arron, I'm sad you didn't mentioned "Leroy Jenkins". Nate would LOVE this story/video.
Hello Nate, Aaron, and Brown Sugar! This is Alex Holehouse in Detroit Lakes, Minnesota. What is the origin of comedians saying they "killed" or they "murdered." I mean it sounds right when you say it, but when Nate was talking about doing that high school show and he says, with such emphasis, that he murdered, I couldn't help but chuckle. I just imagined, "Nate was so funny, and they laughed so hard, that he decided to make sure some or all of the people in attendance weren't alive by the time the show was over." Kinda a wild thing to do to a bunch of high school students and 10 o'clock in the morning. Love the show! Keep it up!
My guess is that they probably looked at the average number of guitars sold over a certain period prior to Guitar Hero being released and then saw a massive uptick in sales after the game was released, then subtracted the new number by the old number and divided that by the number of Guitar Hero games sold over that timeframe to get that percentage.
A video game episode and not one mention of George Louis Costanza’s Frogger record. Sor Sigorb warned me about you folks.
Aaron playing so much World of Warcraft really just killed some of this podcasts cred. 😂😂
Nate, as a Tennessean I can confirm people say “ideal” when meaning to say “idea.” This is totally a Tennessee thing, a couple other misused words specific to Tennessee and perhaps the South as a region; “FUTHER” when meaning to say “FURTHER”, “somewheres” pluralized for only God knows why when meant to say “somewhere”. Shout outs to AaronLand and BraStrap, Aaron is usually somewheres else in his own world and Brain, being futher along in age is always supportive of Nate’s ideals, like a nice uncle.
Jedi (sounds like Jetty)
The theme song for Aaron's sister's "Magic of Numbers" class was the math song from The School of Rock.
The Mount Rushmore of Things That Make Nate Furious:
- Pronunciations
- People who don't have kids because they think the world doesn't deserve their kids
- Tomatoes and/or onions
- College
Honorable mention: 1.) Stats 2.) People hating Dane Cook
Isn't it "no tomato, no onions"?
Celebrities telling people to vote. He really hates that.
Guys I dated a girl named Emma Tour in college and I'm here to tell you she didn't think my immature jokes were nearly as funny as I did. On the flip side, I did just make that up so take it for what a grain of salt is worthy.
I was 10 when the PS2 came out. I remember saving money to buy it, walking in to Toys R Us with cash in hand and looking at the brand new PS2’s. As Nate would say, my “Mayberry head” thought it would be better to buy the recently discounted PlayStation 1 (Gray one), a few games, and a Razor scooter that I could share with my friends. Two days later my scooter was stolen and I was stuck with a game console that couldn’t support the games I wanted to play.
Thanks for what y’all do, Wednesdays are better because of y’all!
I can't pick seats for shows. I'm terrible. Saw you in Dallas, Texas, in October 2019 at the Majestic Theater. Great set. My wife had just finished cancer treatments in August and got the all clear from her doctors. We're both huge fans and I wanted to surprise her with tickets to your show. I looked online and thought I picked pretty good seats. I clearly can't figure out a theater diagram. We were on the VERY back row on the first level of the theater. They set up a row of chairs behind the actual seats at the very back of the theater. We could barely see you. If we hadn't seen all your stuff online and on NETFLIX we couldn't verify it was even you. That's how small you looked from the temporary seating. The couple next to us were almost as entertaining as you. The guy was hammered. I mean he was lock yourself out of your hotel room naked drunk. She was not happy. I mean really not happy. He passed out on MY SHOULDER about 3/4 of the way through your set, and she got up and said, "he's all yours" and left. Never seen these people before. Unlike Nate, this dude was not one of the better facer forwarders in the room.
I find it unbelievable that Nate, Aaron, and Brady have managed to make calendars more fun to listen to people talk about than video games. Also, I think Nate has a whole bunch of college fueled frustration built up so maybe consider an episode about colleges.
My five year old daughter and I look forward to Wednesday nights every week. She loves Nate, Aaron, & Banana! Keep up the great work gentleman, stay germane!
Have you folks ever considered doing a special where the three of you play a multiplayer game together? Or even VR? Thanks for all the laughs!
Love the Nateland aka Aaronland show! Nate, if VA Tech intro gets you fired up, you, Aaron and Bill need to visit Fayetteville, AR to hear a Razorback “Hog Call” in a packed FB stadium, BB arena or Baseball field! (But not against Vandy because the crowd won’t be as big-sorry it’s the truth) Go Hogs Go!
I audibly gasped when I saw how red Bingo’s face was this episode
I forgot where it was, but when Nate mentioned kids that were really good at Mortal Kombat as UNBELIEVABLE.. I think that's when it first became his word. Young Nate 'IT'S UNBELIEVABLE WHAT JASON CAN DO PLAYING MORTAL KOMBAT'
I can't find the autotune video they refer at 31:30? Does anyone have a link?
Fun fact: in grand theft auto 4, there’s a comedy club you can go into snd katt williams is the act.
It’s a great easter egg but I wonder what kid out there is tired of killing cops and hookers and decides I could use a laugh right now let me see if there’s a virtual comedy club in here.
Love the pod, keep up the great work
Give it to Nate for remembering the code for "Contra". I'm the same with GTA Vice City.
Can we crowdfund Thomas Lennon (Reno 911) coming on and parodying Nate for an hour? Nate vs. Nate would be amazing and hilarious.
Second comment...Video games have been a significant part of my life in terms of bonding with my brother. I think Nate would love to watch Speed Runners. My brother is one now. Bascially, people who play games over and over until they can play them almost blind folded. Games that take people months take these people hours and sometimes minutes. It's wild. Shout-out Breakfast Bates, who still sees in black and white.
I am patiently waiting for the day Bates flips out and loses it on Nate for Nate being such a bully to him.
Not gonna happen. Bates knows how to roll. Also, would love to see Aaron and Bates come down on Nate.
@@WifeynJobin OR. Its all just an act between them.
And I was just joking.
You don't say? It's like this is a comedy podcast or something.
One of my semesters of "college" included the courses of Fluid Mechanics, Physics II, Mechanics of Deformable Bodies, Multivariable Calculus, and Differential Equations.
Nut Butter's holistic review of the importance of college is spot on. "College is a joke"...such fundamental classes are unnecessary and everyone knows it!
There is still layaway at Walmart. It’s a big thing around Christmas for celebrities or rich people to pay off everybody’s layaway.
We had a Magnavox Odyssey2. KC Munchkin was their version of Pac-man. Other games were Monkeyshines, Thunderball and Pickaxe Pete. Fun times all around
I love the idea of Bon Jovi’s empty speech class being a bringer show where the professor makes him bring five people to class or he doesn’t get to do his speech for the day.
Commenting from 41,000 ft in the air on a flight back to Birmingham. Talking about the turkeys made me think. This Thanksgiving, you guys should do your own Turkeyr drop like WKRP in Cincinnati did. I think our buddy Bates would make the perfect Les Nessman. The First Annual Nateland Turkey Drop at Opry Mills. I think it would be a hit!
Hello Folks! This was the only episode I was hoping for more golf talk from Nate. Tiger Woods always was my jam. What is Bernard’s twitch name? I could watch him wander around confused for hours. “Who just shot me? Why won’t they leave me alone? I don’t like this game!”
Great episode fellas. Not sure if I’ll ever be able to get over how Briefcase pronounced “mature” though
I used to think Nate was a pretty boring guy, but after discovering he plays the most exciting of all games, golf video games, I think he's one of the most exciting people out there.
I would say as a kid who grew up with games I never felt different after playing one but music and gangster rap did have me feeling like a 5th grader with enemies
Hello folks! First, it's unreal that you read my gym membership comment. My family thinks I'm famous now. Second, listening to Aaron talk about World of Warcraft gave me serious flashbacks. When you go to college sometimes you don't pick your roommates. Living in an apartment off campus with 5 other dudes, one was addicted to World of Warcraft. He would play all night and sleep all day. He was also 29 living with 20 year olds. It was so bad that he would start cooking meals IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT and go back to playing. He would then forget about them instantly and leave them on the stove or in the oven. I woke up several times to smoke alarms. Ever wonder what happens to hard boil eggs after you boil all the water out for hours? I know...and it's not cool, I can tell you that much. I wish that was my only story...it is not.
The dude also had a pretty attractive girlfriend somehow. He would forget about plans he made with her. He slept through a date they planned. I have no idea how he lived like that. Long story short - They are married. Sometimes life is unexplainable.
