Nate Bargatze is a Grammy-nominated American stand-up comedian and actor from Nashville, Tennessee, born on March 25, 1979. Known for his clean, observational comedy and deadpan delivery, he has become one of the most successful comedians in the world, with over 1.2 million tickets sold in 2024, making him the highest-grossing stand-up comic that year.
His career breakthrough came in 2017 when he was featured in Netflix’s The Standups, which significantly boosted his popularity. He has since released several acclaimed specials, including The Tennessee Kid (2019), The Greatest Average American (2021), and Hello World (2023), the latter of which became the most-streamed original comedy special on Amazon Prime Video with 2.9 million viewers in its first 28 days.
Nate appeared on the Kelly Clarkson Show during the week of March 2, 2026. Pink, who filled in for Clarkson revealed that her first name, ‘Alecia’ was misspelled on her birth certificate because her parents were probably on drugs.
The name Nathanael appears twice in the New Testament, John 1:45-51 and John 21:2
NATHANAEL, a disciple of our Lord. He appears to have been a pious Jew who waited for the Messiah: and upon Jesus saying to him, “Before Philip called thee, I saw thee under the fig tree,” Nathanael, convinced, by some circumstance not explained, of his omniscience, exclaimed, “Master, thou art the Son of God, and the King of Israel.” Many have thought that Nathanael was the same as Bartholomew. The evangelists, who mention Bartholomew, say nothing of Nathanael; and St. John, who mentions Nathanael, takes no notice of Bartholomew. We read at the end of St. John’s Gospel, that our Saviour, after his resurrection, manifested himself to Peter, Thomas, Nathanael, and the sons of Zebedee, as they were fishing in the lake of Gennesareth. We know no other circumstances of the life of this holy man.
