THE GREATEST AVERAGE AMERICAN
A little levity feels like exactly what we all need right about now, and Nate Bargatze has plenty of silly, feel-good jokes for us in his spring 2021 special, THE GREATEST AVERAGE AMERICAN (trailer here). If you’ve never heard of Bargatze, he’s a Tennessee-born comic who doesn’t curse or touch politics. He calmly jokes about everyday slip-ups like he’s Sebastian Maniscalco on valium. Meaning, if you like TED LASSO, Nate Bargatze is your guy. Typically, I prefer stand-up that pushes the envelope, but even I chuckled through these bits about concussions, kids' homework, and a legendary waffle snafu. Plus, it’s perfect for your family-friendly Thanksgiving watchlist..
