Oh, hey, how's it going? Amazing. I just finished paying off all my debt with the help of the Credit Counseling Society. Whoa, seriously? I could really use their help. It was easy. I called and spoke with a credit counselor right away. They asked me about my debt, salary, and regular expenses,

gave me a few options, and help me along the way. You had a ton of debt. And you're saying Credit Counseling Society helped with all of it? Yep. And now I can sleep better at night. When debt's got you, you've got us. Give Credit Counseling Society a call today. Visit no more debts.org.

Hi guys. You guys are awesome. This is a pretty special night. My name's Greg Warren, if you don't know. I've been a guest on the Nate Land podcast, and I'm very grateful for that. All right, let's welcome the stage some pretty important people, starting off with Brian Breakfast Bates. Nick, I think we have one more. Nate Bar! Welcome to the Nate Land podcast. I'm Nate Bergergettze. Brian Bates. and dusty sleigh. This is totally comfortable and normal. Yes.

You did not, you were not with us, we did a live one before. A live one is fun. A live podcast before. Yeah, that's pressure. Yeah, you got to get laughs. Yeah. Yeah, you've never done one live. You know, not this one.

No, you know. Oh, you've done a live podcast. Yeah, but, you know. How long would your live podcast be? Well, if it were by myself, I mean, could go on and on. There really, there's no pressure to get last if I could just talk.

We need to start at 4 o'clock. Yeah, yeah. Well, we usually get into where we were this past weekend and we can certainly do that, but also want to talk about where we've been for the last five and a half years. Oh, look at that.

Yeah. That's very sweet. Yeah. Or do which one do you and do first because you just brought up both. It did not. I could talk about where I was in this weekend. Go ahead. Go ahead.

So, because it was very fun this weekend. We were in Eugene, Oregon, Yakima, Washington. All right. We're glad we did this. No. Missoula, Montana, Billings, Montana, and then Bismarck, North Dakota. But the reason I bring it up, we were in, Montana. So I have, so there's a story, I don't know if I've told, I'll tell it here, we might

have a video where I told it on stage in there, but so when I first started, when I first started comedy and I was, you know, I lived in New York, I had Tennessee license plates and I was trying to keep them. I didn't want anything to be New York, not against New York, but I was just like, I want everything to be Tennessee. And so I would have to drive down once a year to go through MARTA, like a car inspection, to keep that license display. So this is when we first started. So I would do gigs, like these weird gigs, with all those gigs that you'd get like $100,

and you might grab a couple of them to try to pay for gas on the way home. This is, I mean, over, this is 20 years ago. So I remember doing a gig in West Virginia, and it was at a place. They rang the buzzer to get in. So the whole show would be interrupted by, you know, like a buzzer at like a restaurant, like when there's, like it's real loud and it's a, you know, I can't do it. Like your tables ready buzzer?

No, no, like when someone's like delivering something and they ring that loud buzzer and it's just, like, very like, it was that, the whole show. And it was because they were having a dance afterwards and people were coming for the dance. No one wanted comedy. The owner was like, oh, let's start with comedy And he did not ask any of the people Who were upset Like a grown people dance?

Yeah, it was already kind of weird Yeah, yeah, yeah A middle school dance. No, yeah, yeah, yeah It was like a grown people dance And it was like for that Like that was it Some real West Virginia stuff Yeah, yeah, yeah

And then, because I feel like that's West Virginia. West Virginia is one of the most beautiful states I've ever driven through. And then, you know, it really is. I'm not going to stop, but I will drive through it. Well, I'm saying that was my joke. The point is, when you stop, it gets a little different. But driving, I mean, it might be one of the prettiest things. No, I am, so we, I thought we're doing this show.

Anyway, so, you know, the show's terrible. I'm three years in comedy. So I go on first. And then the comic that was with me, I asked him, I go, what do you want me to say when I bring you up? So you know, I don't know if you all know, but you say, like, credits, like, you, the one used the most is like, this guy's performed in colleges

and comedy clubs all over the country. Please welcome Brian Bates. somebody. And then, I just said that. Nate, I think you mean the state. Yeah. He's not even supposed to be up here.

Have you done a college? Yeah, you've done colleges. Come on. Colleges. I've done two. They didn't go well. All right. Because I was older than their parents.

So, yeah. This professor is pretty funny. So the guy told me, he goes, just tell him I've performed in almost all 50 states. So that was his credit. So I would say, this guy performed in almost all 50 states and I'd bring him up. But I remember even, I mean, three years into comedy,

I was like, that's so weird of a, credit. Like, I've almost performed in all 50 states, I guess, at that point. Like, we've all almost I've almost performed an entire world. Like, you could, because he didn't give a number. He wasn't like I'm at 25.

Yeah, yeah. It's just a random almost. And so I thought, I mean, I've thought about that my whole career. I was like, such a weird kind of thing. But, in my mind, that day, I thought, I want to

perform in all 50 states. Because I thought even no matter all the stuff that has happened were as my career and the stuff that is unimaginable that I wasn't really thinking could happen, I was like if I can perform in all 50 states, I'd imagine

I'd be a working comedian and that's at least the goal of what I was trying to do it. But even that is not really that good of a credit. But I mean, it's like, did it go well? Well, yes. But I just thought I looked at it as like that means I'm doing this professionally.

So if I could do that. And so that was like my first kind of like, all right, I want to do that. And it took, I mean, 20 years. But Montana was the final state. So now I have officially. All 50. Yeah. Performed in all.

And weirdly, I think it means, it's one that means, it's like, it's way higher than you would probably think of some of this. stuff I've done. Because it just, I remember it was like, just if I can do that, because your goals are not, you know, Bridgestone or Madison Square Guard.

I mean, you're just kind of like, that's a working comedian. Like, that's a guy that's like, I don't have to go back to a regular job. I'm actually making more money than I'm making waiting tables or whatever. So that's why I bring up where I was. So I'm officially done with America.

So now we're going to Middle East. And I've done almost Middle East. I've done more than you think. Where? Hey, Camel. Hey, Camel. Hey, Camel. Yes.

I got a podcast. That's good. The podcast, Naila and Podcast is still going on in the Middle East. And it will, I have different versions of these guys. Yeah, yeah. The version of me is not allowed to have opinions. No, yeah. Oh, man.

Yeah, yeah. Dusty is the opposite, so Dusty's a woman on that podcast, and she hasn't talked. But that's their conspiracy theorist over there. Yeah. Sandy Slay. Is that funny? Sandy? Sandy? In the Middle East East, he's Sandy Slay. Yeah. I don't want to, yeah. I don't want to, yeah. The last podcast is where I get canceled because I got to sit next to Sandus. I did not agree with that. It's a topography joke, dude. I bet it can be taken a few ways. And Aaron, you're in Canada this weekend.

I was in Canada. I'm almost done every country. Yeah? Yeah. I've done two. But it was great. Shout out to Canada. It's tough that there was no full circle moment

while I was there, so it's tough to follow your story. But I was in Canada. But one day you will. Yeah, thanks, man. But it was your first time in Toronto, right? First time in Toronto. That's big. All right.

Yeah, Toronto's hard to get into. Hour and a half flight in there. Yeah, it's closer than you think. Yeah. Yeah. I was off this weekend. I could have been working, but I was, yeah, yeah. There it is.

Could have been. Don't judge him. He chose it. I could have been, but I was off. And it was great. Built a fire with my family. We burned a lot of sticks. I had to wear different jeans because my others smelled like a campfire.

And I don't want to do that too. From where? Like tonight? No, not tonight. Listen, you don't wash the jeans, really. You get, you know, you know, You gotta just hang on to the... If you wash them, they're ruined.

Everybody knows it. I wash jeans the most. I think I've heard that, but I wash jeans. We talked about it before. You put them in the freezer. Put them in the freezer, yeah. You don't wash them. Once you wash them, it ruins them.

Yeah. Should I get ice cream out of your house, and you're just got to be going through size 32s? They're not 32s, I'll tell you that. 32 in-scene, maybe. Is that where you get dressed in your walk-in cooler? You just have... It's like, Harry, that's word...

Your closet would be there. That would be perfect. Oh, it's the dream. That's the dream. Just to fully get dressed in a walk-in-cuh. And you wouldn't be sweating while you're getting dressed, yeah. All right, so,

Where were you at? I was in Snyder, Texas. I drove. Yeah. Easy to drive. No, I did not drive, but I was in Snyder, Texas. Is that a city they invented? I'm joking.

It's a big city. It's tough to get into as well. Yeah. Do they make the pretzels there? Oh, that's a good question. Snyder's pretzels. That's in Pennsylvania, pretty sure. Oh, of course.

Of course, Greg. Pennsylvania right there. Yeah. Okay. All right. That was the camel guy. Yeah. So for where we've been the last five years.

Yeah. We started July 8th, 2020. It was the first podcast. Yeah, Harper's birthday. Harper's birthday. Yeah. There's 13 now. So she turned eight the day that came out.

Yeah, yeah. That's crazy. You know, I didn't celebrate her birthday. I started a podcast. That didn't make sense. Funny thing is... What was that? COVID? I don't know.

I'm sure that'll be brought up the rest of my life. Harper and Aaron are the same age difference as me in Aaron. Oh, really? It's 20 years apart on all of us. All right, so... It's not that funny. It's 20 years apart. So you were doing theaters.

So you were on the good problem to have tour. Yeah. And then COVID hit and shut everything down. You started a podcast. Kind of a weird tour name for getting shut down for COVID. Good problem to have. Yeah. Yeah, it was.

We were in it. That was like, I have footage all this. We, we're going through. One day I would like to show it. Like we have, I mean, the day it was happening when the NBA teams are getting canceled. And like, because we were driving. I mean, it was funny, though, because everybody, you know, everybody's really worried about COVID and, like, on the news and all.

It's like, don't talk to anybody. I mean, I was doing a meet and greet's heavy. Like, I did meet and greet's that night that COVID got to exist. It was the opposite of what the news said to do. I was like, well, I just met everybody. But you were just doing little bitty theaters then. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, yeah, a thousand seat theaters, stuff like that.

Yeah, I'm joking. So since then, since this podcast, this podcast is coming out, you've released three specials. Yes. The greatest average American, hello world, and your friend, A. Bargettzee. You set the attendance record, your Bridgetown Arena. Also, with us in attendance. I like to put it. I went first.

I probably saw a couple of days. Yeah. Yeah. And you've hosted SNL twice. Yes. Jeez. Yeah. It's crazy.

Yeah. Aaron, how long have you been doing comedy full-time when this podcast started? I quit my job September of 2019. What job is this? The salt-looking job? No. I mean, I was doing that, but that wasn't the job. It's so great to be able to just do references that y'all get. I know, it's crazy.

It's crazy. This is the... This is what it feels like being you're with comedian. We're so thankful. Now, Dusty has no clue what's happening, but you guys. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, five years ago, I wasn't even around on this. And when you started this podcast, were you still doing your podcast?

Somebody Stop Me? Somebody Stop Me Podcast lasted, I think a month. And it was me alone in hotel rooms. It was a good podcast. I did like it, though. Really? Yeah, I liked it. Who stopped you?

That thing's done? The audience? Yeah, the audience stopped you. There was no audience. Oh, thanks, man. And since this podcast has started, you put out an album, you put out your first special. Wow. And you got married and had a baby.

Wow. Yeah. How about that? Dusty, you joined May 22, episode 100. All right. Yeah. And when I first met you, you weren't doing this character. You were just yourself.

Ha ha ha ha ha. So when did this start? Well... When I met you, I was doing the character. It took me a while to come out as myself. I was pretending to be a normal guy. Yeah, yeah, that's fair. You put out two Netflix specials since the journal podcast.

Working man, wet heat. Yeah. Working man's leaving Netflix soon, so go watch it. It's gone. That means you got it back. Yeah, I got it back. I own it. So, you know, so I have it. You can't watch it, but it's... But it's...

You got to go to his house. He'll show it to you. But it's mine. Look for the fire. And you had one child? Since the podcast, yeah. And now what do you have? Children.

You have two kids. You don't want to mention anything else? Oh, but I also have another baby on the way. Sorry, you didn't know that. That's okay. All right. Those are Dusty's credits. Yeah.

A lot of kids. I would like to say if you notice, typical Nateland fashion, Abigail could only find three of the cups. And so I guess I get a bottle. So we stay Nate land until the end. That's right. That's right.

Aaron, I brought you over here from the other studio, from the other room, because I wanted to tell you about IQ bar. Oh, thank. Thanks. It's our excitement. Exclusive snack, hydration, and coffee sponsor. I didn't want Nate and Dusty to know about it because, you know, I want to keep them all to myself.

We haven't, I should do. Yeah, Philly's been doing great. Fun. She's been at home. Has not been on the road with me. Harper got a hold of her, so it's been pretty tough.

15. 15. 15. That's too much. Yeah. Yeah. I think so, too. I'll tell you what.

We were hanging. We were hanging on at the end. 11 was a sweet spot 11 was a sweet spot Yeah I said it could have been me It could be nine yeah Nine's perfect

You're not you're not a nine guy You don't know what it's like to go on for your ninth time A lot of pressure Tell them about the 10th time It was a 10 man you don't even know At 11 it gets a little easier and then 12 These guys are tough So the guest that had by far the most views of any episode we ever had,

we got a little clip to show the episode. Take it away. Where? Right here. All right. This week we are, I believe we have a ton of questions. We're bringing the producer of this podcast. We have a very inappropriate relationship.

This is a producer on the podcast. and it's not good for business. So we got Laura Bargetzi. Laura Bargetzi, or Blair. Laura Blair. So before I ever started comedy, when I told her I wanted to go do comedy, the whole beginning was you supporting me.

Thank you, Laura. Yes. I mean, as y'all mentions when you were talking about, I could not do any of this without Laura. I talked like it's, you know, being, it's great because we've been together before any of this. Like, I wasn't even started comedy. And so for her to come along, but even just the sport she is for how much I talk about her, her willingness to come on this podcast, and everything else.

And I love you. And I, and we could never, I would never do it without you. and she's coming actually back on this podcast. Y'all's to produce it. No, I'm joking. She'll tell you I fired her from producing. That's not true. But if you ask her, that's what she'll tell you.

I had to set the tone quick at the Nate Land Company. I go, I go, I'm going to fire my wife first. And then everybody's a little on edge. Yeah, the staff has grown greatly over the last few years. What you still don't have, though, is H.R. and that's what I'm looking for. Yeah, yeah. I got a big old file.

Nick's HR. That's right. Yeah. You're all fired. And I don't even think HR can do that. You're all fired. I need fire the audience. Make it easy, man.

Just take it easy. She's everything. Laura's getting the drinks and putting them all up there. She would pretend to take our temperature when we showed up to your house in 2020. I forgot about that. She would go, if our sponsor was AG1, she would go get us all a cup of AG1, so we could drink it so we could honestly say on the podcast we had our AG1.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Which is so good and I use it every day. I don't have to hold my nose when I drink it or anything. It's that good. It's that good. Get all the vitamins. We also want to thank some of our crew. Lauren?

I'm sorry, Lauren, I can Borg. Let's just say Laura's not going to work anymore. Bougoir. Well, thank you, Lauren. Gregory Taylor, Chris Cameron,

Abigail. Yeah. And Tristan, thank you, Tristan. Yeah, and Tristan. Yep, yep. These are the people that have been in the room with us every episode.

It's us at the table, but then we're just looking at these people. So they've been every step of the way all these people have been. here with us. It's very cool.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, Tristan's with us now at Nate Land and then Avigoths see. The other words we were like, eh. No. They bit too many people. We can't take too many.

Yeah. No, everybody was, yeah. I mean, from the, it is crazy from the beginning, they were in charge of Aaron Land. Yeah. Yeah. We got an Aaron Land video. We'll pull up real quick. We get that.

Aaron Land. Nah. We don't have that. And, yeah. And, you know, and with dementia with Abigail, Abigail's done, she's loved this the whole time.

She loves talking to you guys and a lot of y'all have talked to Abigail a lot. She's a nice buffer. Yeah, yeah. She does a wonderful job of that. And so she's me and her exactly the same.

So it's amazing. It's amazing that we've worked, that we still work together, because we're the same. So there can be some fights. But I love her, and again, she's been great too. So that's awesome, Abigail. My little Abigail. All right, you want to get some of these comments?

That started off with you guys' comments. All right, Joy Smith. Oh, no. I told them to take that off. Joy could not make it tonight. she had some health issues. Okay, sorry. Get well, Joy.

Get well soon, Joy. Yeah. Oh, okay, so that's a tough, that's a tough comment to read if she couldn't make it. I was going to say, why does it matter, but then I read it. Brian said her name. Take that out all the other. Sorry, Joy.

She'll be watching it home. Look, can we read her. Yeah, go ahead. Yeah, we read her comment. Curious, who is traveling the furthest for the finale. Could we? Has the new podcast already started?

You just say it. Joy's asked, so Joy, if she could have made it, we would love to be here. She was 1,800 miles. It would have taken her to get here. So she was curious. Who has traveled the furthest, furthest finale podcast?

Anybody? It's Natalie. It's Natalie. How far is Natalie driven, flown? How far? I'm not. She's in the third match. Yeah. Couldn't make it that last quarter mile up to the stage. Oh, okay.

That's great. That's really nice. And then you beat her as far as their miles. Yeah, that's right. Where are you from? Where's 1,900 miles away? California. Oh, yeah.

Sounds about right. I'll believe you. Yeah. Well, Natalie, thank you for coming. Serena Charlene Lynn. Where you got, Serena? I'm right here. Serena.

Oh, yay. Hi, Serena. I'm not used to the people being in the room that were really good. I know. It's wild. Pretty tough for me to trash your comment. Yeah, yeah.

You're right. I'm sure he'll find a way. More we're going to tell you. It wasn't nice. Nate, there are so few public figures that are creating what you have, and I'm thankful to be a part of it. I have honestly felt over the last five years

as if the band are my good buddies. Well, thank you. That's wonderful. Thank you very much. That was the goal of this. She don't remember writing that, though. She's like, I don't know. I don't know.

I don't think that was man. Yeah. She goes, that doesn't sound like me. Jody Whitaker. Before I discovered the Nate Land podcast, I'd been to a total of one comedy show in my entire life. Last year alone, I went to 40 comedy shows. And in 16 of those shows, we're seeing members of the band who I love and now called friends.

I'll miss it. But I'm excited to see all the wonderful things, Nate, Brian, Aaron, Dusty, and all the Nateland comics continue to do. Thank you, Jody. I've seen you at, yeah, where was one, DC, 10, D.C. was pretty far, right? Didn't you come to, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, look at us. Traveling the world.

All 50 states, all 50 states. Almost. Almost. We've been almost. Uh, Angie Wilkinson. Where you had, Angie? Angie. Come on down.

Oh, no, Angie? All right. Skip this one. Yeah. Yeah. Good. Angie Wilkinson. I own a coffee shop slash bakery.

People often ask to try our coffee before they order. Of course, that is crazy. Are you allowed to do that? Can I get a sip of your dark roast? That's kick you out of the store. Have some people have all done that? I've never heard of that ever. It is kind of like an ice cream sample, but I feel like we've had this debate.

Yeah, yeah. You're against... Don't you have to make it? Yeah. Like, and then... Yeah. Well, that could be in the urn or whatever. Of course, we let them taste, but inside, of course we let them taste, but inside I may be rolling

my eyes just a bit, especially if it's during a rush and the entire line comes to a stop. Thoughts on this. Yeah, I agree. I think that's crazy. I think only if you do it, like wine. Your boy right there, Nick Novicki. I have tested quite a few coffers. He loves it. I tested a coffee today in Nashville Airport.

The airport? Airport coffee. After he got here. Starbucks. It's in a Starbucks? You've never had Starbucks before. He hasn't had Nashville Airport Starbucks, and he doesn't trust it. Yeah. It was a new flame.

The whole coffee, the whole airport is the same beans, I think. Yeah. It's the same thing. Well, there was something new today. Nick, did you have to determine if it was worth a lactate pill? Is that why you took a sample? I took one just in case. We got some donuts.

One of you all gave us donuts. Yeah, thank you. And we've already got into those. He brought extra lactate pills for it. He do this night was going to be big. But I want Angie to know I'm against it. She says thoughts on this. I'm against it.

Well, yeah, I think everybody is. I don't know. I mean, Nick is for it. I would imagine that's like something you're trying to be nice, and then it just ends up, like, people start doing it. And then you're like, what are we doing? Yeah, just drink the coffee. Yeah.

If you don't like it, don't order it again. Throw it away outside and never talk about it again. I think it'd be funny if Angie said no. They go, could I try a sample when she goes? You look them dead in their eyes. No. No, you can't. I guess if it's like in a pot, you could say you could have a sip.

I'll pour a little in your hand. Wet heat. That's right. Wet heat, yeah. Wow. Wet heat. The crowd's writing great callbacks for us. Kayla Lasseter Eamon.

Yeah. Hey, she turned around. Scale of 1 to 10, how correctly did Nate say your name just now? Eamon. Eamon. Dehant. Die, hell this. Wow.

So when you tell somebody how to say your name, you just say, ignore most of the letters in the name. Yeah. And just go for it. How would you set it? Uh-huh, man. It's tough to do with an audience. Yeah. A hemmin?

A hemmin. It's E-H-E-M-A-N-N. Eamon. Okay. I'm sorry. Get it right, it's a family that gets to the point. You get one right in five years, saying you're pretty arrogant about it. Because...

But maybe I've been right the whole time and we haven't had them here. That's true, that's true. That's a good point. Yeah, we don't know. Thanks to a recent replay of the Florida episode, I was able to help my 15-year-old son when he developed the devil's itch from a sunburn.

I knew from Aaron's experience to give him Benadryl and have him take a hot shower. He only had to suffer for a little while instead of hours, thanks to Nate. How about that? Helping people. How about that? Helping people.

That sounds like child abuse to me, huh? Dusty, ever have the devil's itch? No. But you would call it something else. Yeah, I would call it something else. But if you had it, you would go, this is from the devil. I'd be like, yes, okay. Yeah, yeah.

It's not saying it's a good itch, it's a bad one. Yeah. Yeah, I wouldn't call it that, though. I'd be like, this itch is pretty bad. Yeah. That sounds horrible. Yeah, exactly. Nancy Hodges.

Nancy, hello. On an old pod episode, Nate talked about a guy who would always be in the same seat at a New York comedy club to help comedians laugh a lot, constructive criticism, et cetera. I remember Nate was sentimental and talking about the man. I've been wondering if he's still around

if Nate still knows him. I do not. You know what? Do you remember him? I remember. Yeah, what was his name? There would be literally two people, and he was the greatest. The greatest.

No one knows his name. Yeah. It would really be a great reveal if he was here right now. It would be awesome. Let's bring him up! Yeah. Yeah, I felt like there's been times when I've been able to remember. When I performed for one guy, the one time I performed, it was him.

and because we'd be at the comedy club and so when we started with me and Nick and Dustin Chafin and we're at Boston Comedy Club and Vecione and we're you know people would kind of come and go so that's like kind of how New York that club ran

it would start at 8 p.m. and just go to 2 a.m. And so you would just kind of people would come for a couple hours and they would leave and then we would just kind of keep going and so the younger comics us would get up pretty late. But he was a guy that had just the best laugh and would laugh no matter what

and kind of with your jokes. And like, it just was very a cheerful, wonderful person. So you actually did get to go on stage and try your stuff. So, I mean, I remember him. I can't remember his name, but I, like, yeah, we, I mean, I think about him all the time. He was a great guy.

He probably lost his job from this. Yeah. And now we talk about it. He was there late at night, every night. Every night. He would never just, he would wait He was... I'm kind of thinking he never had a job.

He might not have. He might not. Melissa Sedlack. All right. All right. Say Sedlick. Sedlack. Oh, yeah.

Both, I guess. Last year, on January 20th, I was in a medically induced coma after having emergency surgery. My Nayland hoodie had to be cut off, man. And I missed watching my Buckeyes win the National Championship. The podcast helped me get through this last year as I have adjusted to my new life. My family played it for me when I was unconscious.

And once I was awake, I looked forward to watching while I was stuck in the hospital in rehab. Tonight, I'm wearing my new hoodie and sharing this experience with all the folks. Thank you for all the laughs. That's awesome. That's awesome. That's awesome. That's awesome. That's very cool.

That's, thank you for sharing that. We cut that, we cut the sleeves off that hoodie. That wasn't much of a game you missed though. The Ohio State? Ohio State winning the National Championship. That'd be nice to see to win it and not be in a coma. They beat the joke. I mean, sorry.

Melissa, I'm sorry. Hey, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. Yeah. They played Notre Dame in the chain. That's when I was referenced. It was a great game.

It wasn't the Reliqquest Bowl, but it was pretty good. Well, if you joined a conference. Aaron, I used to think I had a pretty good handle on my finances until I actually look closely. One month opened my bank statement. realize I was paying for multiple subscriptions. I didn't even remember signing up for. Some of them more than once. And that was my okay,

I need help moment. Right. So then I downloaded rocket money. All right. Rocket money. It's when I started using it. It showed me exactly where my money was going all in one place. It immediately flagged subscriptions.

I wasn't using anymore. Being able to cancel unwanted subscriptions right inside the app was just a few taps save, with just a few taps, save me time and stopped those charges from quietly. draining my account. Rocket money is a personal finance app that helps find and cancel your unwatch subscriptions, monitors your spending, and helps lower your bills so you can grow your savings. What I really like is how it automatically categorizes transactions across my account. Seeing everything organized makes it obvious where I was overspending and Rocket Money helped create a budget that actually made sense for me. So let Rocket Money help you reach your financial goals

faster. Join Rocketmoney.com slash Nate. That's rocketmoney.com slash Nate. Rocket money. com slash Nate. All right. So we've had so many great moments on the podcast for these last five years.

We asked the folks to come up with their favorite moments of the podcast. And Greg, I believe you have a top 10 moments. All right. Here we go, guys. Can I ask Dusty, how does it feel? You love making lists, how does it feel to sit back

and watch one that somebody else has met? Well, yeah, I love a list. There's a great chance you're not in. Well, if Greg picked it, that's probably true. It's all Greg moments. Yeah, no. Now, the problem is Greg didn't pick it

the audience. This list was compiled by the dumb dusty. Dumb dusty guy. He compiled this list. Well, then it's all me then, because he's obsessed with me. There's a guy that's like the dump dusty guy on the consumers' podcast. He's a little less eloquent.

He just says Greg sucks. Sorry about the language. You said it in your special. I said it. You're not supposed to say it. But you said it. But I said it the way that you're supposed to say it in how you're not supposed to say it. I guess we're rated R now.

It was in his special. It was a family podcast until Greg got involved. The 15th time. Does it every time. It does it every time. All right, we're going to start with number 10. Emu with a gun. That was a very fun.

Did we just, is that it? Number nine, last cross-section of America. Are they going this fast? No, no, no, no. The last five, we're going to dwell on them. Okay. Okay. Number eight, nursing home French fries.

Yeah. That's a good one. That's an all-timer. Yeah. Oh, gosh. That's disgusting. Number seven. Peanut butter salesmen.

Yay. Thank you. Yeah. Number six. Yeah, that was a big one. That was awesome. And I believe these five we're going to show clips of? Yeah.

Civilian. Number five, civilian station. I've never seen this. I want to believe in aliens because it shows that some civilization didn't blow themselves up and were able to get out in space and have some fun. Is that a whole thing? Yeah. You see it.

Yeah, so there should be other civilian stations that. It's one big happy It's one big happy civilian station You're trying to say civilization? Yeah, okay. It blew me a while, it's like civilian station. I want people to take that seriously. How are they going to take this seriously?

I mean, I don't know. I don't think they're... Oh, boy. Maybe they... But I hope something is called civilian. That's what Earth is called. We are a station for civilians. Yeah, that's a good one.

I think I'm ahead of the game. I feel like an alien talking to dumb humans. Because people make fun of what I say. And I would just go, you're going to one day use this civilian station. A lot of weeks in the comments, the next week someone will say, Nate was actually right. He's ahead of his time somehow. There's no such thing in civilization.

It's a conspiracy. Is there been other civilizations? Is there been other civilian stations? Is that, I don't think it's a... Critical comedy reaction. It's a meltdown. In all seriousness, there's, there's been other civilian stations, that's what we're going to call it for you.

Where civilians have lived is what they say, and they're gone. I would think they're... The argument, the argument is the reason we've never found in all our vast... searching a air may need to step out to see some life out

the argument is in all they're searching of all the cosmos one argument is maybe because they've long since destroy themselves and they advance

like we do with nuclear weapons or some sort and then they eventually just kill themselves and so the are Yeah.

Like it, Aaron. Civilian stations. That's what we're going to call this episode. That's how to describe Earth. Nobody's ever made that mistake. Adribling vacation. Civilization. I just got to stop.

He was at the breaking point, and that was to shove he needed. It was like I was walking down the road. I looked the other way. Then I go, where was I? But I was still in the same word when all that happened. So I said civilian station. Wait till you're 60. Things come out of your mouth.

You don't even know. It's not my fault. I was raised. I was taught by. What I'll say about that clip, I don't know if you could tell from the clip, that wasn't the healthiest point of my life. That's when you got it all started. I was battling some demons. Yeah, but there's a point at the very beginning where Brian goes,

Aaron, are you okay? And I thought I was going to pass out. I have never felt, I got so lightheaded. I think I'm going to pass out. on the podcast. That's how hard I laughed. And then like five minutes, and I just, we weren't even done yet.

And then like five minutes later, I'm just looking at Nate. I just started thinking about it again. And I just lost it. That was the first time. I mean, there was no getting me back. I was out of it. And I was also, this is early enough

that I was, I still thought Nate might kick me off this podcast at any point. So I was also like, am I ruining the episode? So, because I can't, you can't, I was gone. Did you know I said civilian station before he said it? Yeah, but I was going to let it. And then once he pointed, I was, I mean, I didn't register at the time.

What a crazy leap your brain. Like, what misfired in your brain? I still will laugh about it occasionally if I think about it. He was so serious, too, in the clip. I never saw the clip. Yeah. But the way you're saying it. you're like, you're really going for it.

Oh, yeah, yeah. We haven't seen him since that day, but I'm told that Kevin Jada is here tonight. Kevin? Where is he at? Oh, yeah, Kevin. Hey! Incredible.

Okay, he is real. Yeah. Kevin was our original Dusty. Yeah. I want y'all to meet. He paved the way for me. Oh, yeah. Y'all, y'all need it.

He walked so I can run. You definitely need to. to meet. All right. Number four? First, Mace, Mace. I stole a mace once

and thought that somehow the guy found the ball back. And I ran back to my first. It confused them so much. I was on second. And I thought I only found So I started right back for about halfway there.

He was like, So I went over from the first. And I had to slide head first into first base. Back to the base. And I'm back right where I was with the first base coach. He's like, what are you doing, man? You were there. That's like, I thought they fouled it. I thought they fouled it. I didn't know.

So in a way, I stole two bases. That's never happened before. You're the only one. He stole a base, and he stole him back. The look on my first base coach's face when he saw me coming back there. Oh, dude, I mean, just to be, just to have to dive in,

just to like have to, you have to slide to fix a problem that shouldn't be a problem. Like, you're getting back to the original. You could be like, dude, you could just stay here, man, and we would be going through this, and for you to get all the way to second, That's like, I feel like with you, anybody else that's like, maybe you'd be it back to first, but you just go back to first and you're like, well, that was a stupid. And you're the only one that gets in a battle situation.

Just trying to get back to the original spot. I mean, it's a full on real play. I mean, I wouldn't head first. The op had a call safe. I think that was my first and maybe only time I laughed Yeah People bring that story up on the road all the time And about being so funny

But what makes it so funny is your reaction Yeah well It's yeah I mean that was early on in the podcast Episode 5 episode 5 I know him just so well And so once he starts it I can just picture him And then I just

And I mean, I lose it Just because Yeah, when you tell stories about your childhood I'm just picturing you Yeah As you are right now Just like a smaller but still I picture smaller, younger

But it's still It's not, it's this His whole thing is still, yeah How old were you? I was little league so I was 10 Yeah, just 10 11 something like that Just oh man

I just why I because I I think I saw where it was going like right when you started it you laughed so quick I thought I already told you the story no I mean I made the picture was already drone the picture was drone in my head did I it's like it's like it's what I love is like because when you know something so long and then they throw out a story that you just haven't heard Nick's the king of this. It's because Nick will throw out stories that I haven't heard. I'm like, how have you never told this? Which, you know, I don't know what the list is,

but Nick has a good story on here too. Yeah, yeah. All right. I don't know either. Number three. Number three. Very well. Yeah.

That was a good one. Well, as far as a bear attacks, it basically said don't do what you suggested. Don't try to run from the bear. the grizzly bear that is because no one's trying they can run as fast as a horse and they can't run as fast as a horse

it doesn't it doesn't matter it's the um shakin bag Barry Sanders could evade a grizzly bear I bet so I bet he could tackle it

but you tell me though he couldn't tackle him Timmy Sanders couldn't tackle He felt like a guy, it felt like you slurred that. He said like an old drunk bestie. You tell him a best, huh? You said, very sense.

You said, very sense, can't take time? Are you driving? Did you? Did you? He could, though. Very sad. You know what you're just saying. He's on occasion.

Right now in the face. You know, look, little, nice. This guy, son's, this guy's like I can't take a good bill. Beyeson. Can't take their present, but. He said, he said, he's going on. He said, something's wrong.

Bayes Sanders. Bayes Sanders. I stand by it, though. We, didn't Barry Sanders tweet? Yeah, he tweeted us. He answered the question. He answered the question. The question, which is the closest we've come to Barry Sanders.

What did he say? But it was pretty cool. He said he agrees that he doesn't think he... Well, he doesn't think he could... He disagrees with us. He was just being humble. He's not confident in himself like we are. I still think Barry Sanders could do a couple jukes.

You got to just juke. I think if the bear's standing up on its back legs, Barry Sanders comes right at it. I think it's going down. Yeah. I think, well... Prime, prime. You might be, Derek Henry would probably be more of...

Well, yeah, but, you know. Yeah. But yeah. Yeah, but Barry, I think, is like, I picture running, it's running at it, and Barry's just, like, spin mood. Well, of course. Yeah.

Yeah, yeah. But I think you could tackle him, too. Yeah. I don't know why he's a running back, but I guess... You guys keep saying this. Like, this guy's not super strong, but... I think.

He's very strong. He's not built for tackling. If we were talking about Lawrence Taylor, I would, or, you know, Ray Lewis. Ray Lewis. Yeah.

But I mean, I think Barry, I always thought about the jukeing. Yeah. No, I'm with you. I support it, but I still stand by it.

Yeah. Like you could tackle him. Yeah. All right. If there were only a way, we could see it. He could draw it. We have challenge time.

Number two. There you go. Nate, the worst word I butchered while reading it loud was horse divorce. Or nerves. Or nerves. He, I pronounced it as ours devourous. Probably, I don't know, probably got rid of killed by my friends. I'm curious how you're pronouncing it right now.

I said horse divorce. A horse divorce. A horse divorce. divorce. It's been happening a lot around here. Horse divorces. What if you get a lawyer? That looks like a business card. What do you do? I do horse divorces. And then he goes, oh, specialize in horse divorces? So they get divorced a lot more than you think. Imagine what do you think it is? And you go, I think it's zero. And he goes, it's every one of them. There's not one horse that I've met that stays

along with his running mate. They're all so unhappy. They're all so unhappy. And I deal with horse divorces. I got more than I want. And then someone comes over and gives him some caviar and he goes, oh, thank you.

That's going to say the horse divorce party. Upscale. Upscale. Upscale hours devours. You know, if you don't say, what is it, or, uh, hors d'oeuvres. How did they get to that? Do you think anybody says that word correctly the first time they see it? There's not a chance.

Yeah. And even if you know it, you don't see that in your head when you say hors d'oeuvres. Yeah. You know, nobody does. Horse. You're about to say, Brian? I was going to say, I can see how many hours of hours. I can kind of say.

see that week. Horse divorce is a little more. Horse divorce. I guess duvres. I could have said horse de duvre. Horse duvres. Excuse me, would you like any horse duvres please? I will. You know, I don't mind if I do. You as a waiter at like a fancy event walking around some pigs in a blanket. I tell you with some horse diivore. What's that? Horse divoray. Is this horse?

This is horse? No, no, no. Pigs in the blank. What do you need cutlery for this? What's the matter? You don't need any... Cutlery? Cutlery.

You don't need any cutlery for this? This is a horse divorce. We've got it going here. This is a civilestation. Just add every... You can almost make that a whole sentence. Yeah. Forrest divorce, cutlery, and...

Validity? Validity? Yeah. Validability. Valandibility. What's that? What's the Mary Poppin's song? Valid.

S.B. I was... I was... I knew what I was saying. Now when I knew, I was like, for me, the right words were coming, and then I thought, well, let's just see what words. It's got to doches part at the end.

Yeah. Yeah, the doches. You know, horse to wars. Just seeing a horse in court. You just sit there both? I don't know we want to look at it. Every judge. Why's the long face?

All right. All right, I always start like that. All right, I always start like that. Potsiprock. She just want to be name me anymore. Flaw jokes like that. That's where the lawyers have a good time. It's a good, it's a fun place to be.

And a horse divorce to go in there. Horse divorce court. Horse divorce court. And they go in there and they bring in the little, the ponies. The ponies. And they're just sitting there. Branding them.

Get back. Golly. One shows up with a bunch of brands all over him. Oh, boy. He's no trouble. He's got a bunch of his got. He's all branded up. I love your, the 90s outfit you had on, Brian.

Yeah. Playing in Hollywood. That's what I thought. It looked like someone that we like were like, hey, we got a special guest on the podcast today. and Brian and you showed up and you're playing it on from the 90s you're playing an Hollywood thing

yeah horse divorce I can't even think of what number one would be I know what it is maybe number one the grand champion I've been to some bad some sad zoos I haven't been at a really good ones

what's a sad I went to one in Arkansas that was just there's just trash and every a lot of trash yeah and and the sad part was there's like a penguin exhibit. It's

Arkansas in the summer. So it was just these penguins all hovered and standing in front of the fan in this except. Yeah. It was just, I was like, why are they here? How do you say it? Yeah, what was the thing? Yeah, what was different? Penguin. I say penguin. I say penguin. Penguin? Penguin. I mean, that sounds like the guy that would run that

penguin. What do you got going on here? And there's penguin. I got a couple penguins. And we got bought, put a couple penguins down to the other night I bought her a couple of penguins. And you would seem like a guy that someone that says like that

sells penguins to zoos that are kind of under how are you supposed to say it? Penguin. Penguin? Yeah. It's an A. P-E-N-G-U-I-N-G-U-I-N? You're saying it like an A. You're saying it like an

I and E-N-E-E-E-C-S-E-E-E-E-C-S-E-E-E-E-E-C-E-S-E. You should be P-A-N-G, I mean. He looked this up. He looked up the, I mean, this might be. Brian had the computer. How crazy was that? We'll get the results in 10 minutes. March of the Penguins.

I mean, I would like to say, if two people in this room. How does Morgan Freeman say it in March of the Penguins? Penguin books. Here we are. P penguin. Hey, you got some. What do you sell them? I got a couple of paintings.

Clear a nice box. That's how. Very nice box. I thought usually Wikipedia shows you like the pronunciation. Yeah, you could do if you usually if you just type in penguin pronunciation. Just hear someone say pink. Oh yeah. Whoa, you got to go.

I want to hear somebody who, I want to hear the legit. One of those said penguin prostitution. Penguin, there it is. Well, yeah, well, click the, click the button, right? Let's hear it. Right. Right. And they'll directly to the right of it.

I don't know. Click, click. Penguin. Penguin. Hey. We're both here. Just like I said it now. Penguin.

Penguin. Penguin. Slow it down. Slow it. Yeah. There you go. Penguin. It's not clear.

I still take a problem. Not quite. I think we're both thinking we're saying that right. All right. This is like a Yonty Laurel type of. Yeah. So you're hearing pangue? I'm hearing penguin.

Because I'm hearing penguin. Penguin? How you doing? What do you got back there? Got a couple of pangoonies? One of them's all white. Is it? I haven't ever seen one else.

It's all a lot. It's all a lot. Blacker, black. Like that tuxedo jacket? No. It doesn't have. I did a pot. How did you get that one?

He goes, where is it at? It's in the front with me. It doesn't get too cold. It doesn't need... It's 95 degrees in Arkansas right now. Yeah. Got a couple, how much they, a couple of things? How much they go for 50 bucks?

I mean, a guy like that wouldn't know what to say. Like, he wouldn't know that he can make money off of it. He goes, he goes, how much you want for about those 50 bucks? Get on that. You can great for 50 bucks. I'm playing with one of them in a rock cover. Um, um, that you're going to buy him. He said he goes,

9.25. Yeah. Anyway. Penguin. Pinguins. And then they sell that some penguins. I take two pine ones.

Two penguin burgers. Go type in, when you were typing that stuff in, X out of the laugh. Go penguin pee. Now pee. I swear PR

Yeah, penguin prostitution Oh, it's a thing Oh, it's a thing Penguin prostitutions Oh, they want rocks more than sex Do penguins have Oh, I wish not be talking about This is

This podcast is off the rails I mean, what happened? I mean, that's the best thing you could hope What did you think was going to be? The guy in McSbury, down the alley I thought it could be something that has nothing to do with penguins.

I thought, I honestly, I honestly thought it would be like, that's what they call some other thing. And then penguins are nothing. It's painful. But it's straight up penguin.

You got penguin problems. How much you want to, I love a guy selling that. And a couple penguins in the back, one's all black. Doesn't have any one. what? Feet are blue. Is it? Let me see.

Is you kidding me right now? I'm trying to start my own zoo, and I love some penguins is the thing that I think said of something to talk. I mean, I think that's what the guy says that. Because if I get a couple of penguins, I think we'll be just right at a chart. $8 to get in that place. Get a couple of penguins.

I love. But the official produces the issue is how I was saying it was, you know. No one says that. So that's your worst? I agree with Aaron.

That was it. Dark and so on. It's the boys that had a penguin that could. Okay. Pankham. I mean, it's funny. You could have really listened

to 14 of our episodes and really had at all. Because it's like they were all at the bed. Yeah, it's tough that all our best moments are from the first three months. And then we kept going another five years. Yeah, really, no neednese reason

for me to even join, I think. All the best moments. No, we actually needed you. Actually, you were up. We need you. Well, you moved with the gun. Yeah. You were there for that. Yeah, I was in the room. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, they have peanut butter, like, yeah, all that stuff. It was all downhill after that.

No, no, no. 108, I think, is where it started to tip. It is 2026, and instead of going full new year and new me, I'm keeping it simple. Small upgrades that actually stick, little changes that make everyday life better. One of the easiest wins for me this year has been upgrading my laundry routine with laundry sauce. You know, I love sauce. Oh, you do. And I love laundry.

And I didn't expect this, but it's completely changed how my clothes smell in the best way. Hey, laundry sauce is a premium. It smells really good. Thank you.

So we've had many challenges proposed over the five and a half years. Most of them we've never done. Most of them involved you losing weight. About once every six months, Nate makes a rant slash proclamation that he's got a new weight loss thing. Like and forth with it? Yeah. Episode 52, you said you're starting intermittent fasting.

Oh, yeah. Well, that's when it was working for you. It was working. You were doing it. You were doing four hours, 80, and 20 hours. It didn't stop working, right? It works the whole time. I stopped doing it.

So it's tough to blame the internet. When you look at you, you lost a ton of weight in this podcast. Like at the, again, from the beginning where it looked like it was you and Dusty were already there

and I have to tell that's a need. Episode 81 you and I had a challenge to see who could get down

to 165 first. I beat you. Yeah, you did. Yeah. And Aaron, we tried to get on that. If you could get down

to 200 before we could get to 165. That was that was the yeah, Hello World's first.

You had the Hello World special. That was like I got very dedicated. That was like right before it all. Like after that it was like all right I could do that I was touring and all that stuff but then you started then after that and for me it's been getting busy like even outside of touring so I think it's been harder now.

And then a year ago this week it was a new year and you said I got to do something so you set a goal to get down to 20% body fat and you had a whole donut eating challenge with Eric that you told us about for some time. Oh yeah I remember that. Yeah yeah. Eric has to eat what? Yeah, a bunch of donuts. Yeah.

I was with Eric, Eric, because I think we talked about it last week, something like that. And then Eric was like, because he kept getting hidden up, everybody hit it. And he was like, were you talking about the donut thing again? Yeah. And I go, I think so. Yeah. But he never had to eat the donuts, though. He never did.

No. He never did. Nate spent more time talking about it than doing it. Yeah, I got, welcome to life. That's what my whole life is. But you know what though? It was, as I went through today looking through these and all the people who emailed us, you know the episode of The Office, Scott's Tots?

Yeah. Where very cringy, but at the end the kids say, hey, because of you, I graduated high school thinking this was going to happen. So many people emailed said, Nate, because of your thing, I've lost this amount of weight. Oh, wow. Even though you never did it, they did it. There they go. Yeah. Yeah. We're here for you.

Yeah. There was a Nate Dustin. swimming competition that's never happened? Yeah. Yeah. So, yes. Bring it on the cruise. I know we're thinking about the cruise,

but I think that those pools are tiny. It's okay. Yeah, it's okay. It still doesn't care. It's all right. Yeah, maybe we do it on the wheel. Can you do a good flip and kick off the wall and come back? I think so.

Okay. You sound like you've never done it. I bet I could do it, though. We'll see. We'd see if we do it on the cruise. Do it in the ocean. Yeah. Oh, yeah.

The Gulf of America. You're like, where are we going to find the water to swim in? I don't know. In the Gulf? We get off. I didn't think about getting off. Yeah. Are you going to have us swim to the boat?

From the port, yeah. Yeah, we could do it in the ocean. You know, I'm down, but I've not been training to be swimming. Oh, boy. I haven't been to training. We're to swim? No. I still say we have challenges.

We've had some. I'm still not against. I think we will do them. It will be on y'all's podcast. But the challenge could come back to play. The original challenge, though, I just want to say, was Brian said he could look like a professional soccer player. Yeah, which is, I don't think we fully appreciate how ridiculous that is.

That's what I'm saying. I think I could look more like a professional swimmer than Brian could look like a professional. professional soccer player. Yeah, my argument was I could blend in out there, just walk around in the middle, a big field. You've got to take your shirt off. Yeah.

I mean, that's ridiculous. I don't know. I think I could do it, though. I look like, you know, I got a little slack with it, but I... We've got the... Aaron and I are going to do a golf challenge. That's still to come.

That's still going to come. We're going to do... We have John Augustine, who is our first guest. The first never guest. He's here. Where's John at? I don't know. John

professional golfer John August he left he left a while ago no he's back there John Augustine

still a professional golfer a first guest he's uh yeah he's gonna come out because he said he would caddy and he

for whoever has the who's the underdog which is Aaron which he does John said he thinks Aaron he's like how do you caddy

for a guy throwing a ball yeah there's nothing to I guess he's just offering to hang out all day. Yeah, well, he might be throw it. He'll tell you to throw it like against this sort of roll. Have you go to by icy hot that he rubs on your shoulder.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I need it, yeah. We'll go get your snacks. Yeah. But we did have one challenge that we got to the bottom of it. That we did. We got to the bottom of it. Let's take a look. If I could throw it, I could...

He'd even throw it to a golf ball, full length of the baseball. Not a roll. Not a real. 350 feet yeah but it could roll that conversation warped and it was manipulated by Nate over time and basically it became not about Brian at all it just became about whether I can throw a golf ball a hundred dollars including a row yeah and I thought I think I have a decent shot of getting there If I hit the wall, you won't even really need that. That's true. Yeah. I've been talking all this trash for like over a year now. And now here we are.

Actually, I have to do it. Usually you can just make claims on this podcast, and nobody will ever expect you to follow through. Isn't it for one time we'll follow through that? Oh, God. Got it. You did dirt. All right, all right.

What was that? Should I go again? Do you want to go again? Yeah. Do you think you know what you did wrong? If you do it straight down, Alright, hold on. I threw that one down too quick.

I threw it too. That landed in the outfield. Oh, that died quick. That died quick. I feel. Outfield. Offer off. Thanks, man.

279. All right, look, I'm gonna, that's way farther than that. All right. All right. Tell you it, that's something. Back in with someone. So if we played the regular golf course,

we still be our hole number two. Brian, but you'd still be back by the teacher. trying to get that one will I think we will do that one they will be on y'all's podcast I think this is proof of concept that it's not it's not totally out of the realm of possibility like you think you could get it yeah I think a few months of training under my brother I think I can get it for all that probably yeah you have to invent the person that trades you this feels good I'm not going to watch it I think I think I think I feel good. I appreciate that man. Thanks for making this happen. Thank you to the

National Sounds. Thank you Brian. Thanks for the National Sounds. This step one, step two is playing Brian on a golf course. Yeah, I have a strategy. What's the strategy? Your arms were to give out. I'll just, you've thrown sick. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I feel it. Shouldn't have thrown that last. Oh, there's gonna get on the ball. The ones that went through big 10, but really good to be honest with it. That's tough. Come check us on the road, local high school, baseball. filled everywhere. This video is so misleading.

It was so misleading. And I know they work for you and you paid them, so they have to make you look good. Give me a break. It shows you hits. You got laughs. We were giving you laughs. It's misleading laughs.

Bates hit the ball great. Thank you. Bates did hit through it. I mean, he really did. He hit the ball great. That first throw is legit. That's what happened. And then the second one you threw was like with mine.

We were both me and he got a lot farther than us. And then we had him flip and he threw back to home plate. And it actually went 350 as it hit the dirt and kind of went down. So, but it was, you know, that was. And it was 50 degrees outside. It was, I mean, it's recent. So who knows? All right.

I believe it. Did anybody, did everybody, did everybody, not believe it? Yeah, I still don't believe it. I didn't believe it. I didn't think you could do it. Well, when people say the length of a football field, I don't think they mean 350. I think he mean 300, right? A hundred yards. A length of a baseball field is what we're talking about. Yeah, that's, we just did. That was a baseball field. Yeah, so that whole. But I thought the original thing was a football field. Well, you learned the original thing doesn't matter at all because we'll talk about it for three years and then it'll be a whole different thing

by the end of it and then Nate quits. All right, I think we've got some questions from the audience from some super fans, but I'm going to turn it over to Nick Noviki. All right. We've got some super fans here. So when I call your name,

come on down. It would want you to ask the question on the microphone. So I'm going to throw a couple days ahead so people just start coming down. Ryan Irvin from Nashville, Tennessee. All right, Ryan. I'm thirsty. Followed by Kim Sadowiser from Irvingdale, Iowa. And Candace Goines, Define Alabama.

I think it's Daffney, right? So, Ryan, where are you at? Daffney, Alabama. Ryan. Daffing. Ryan, are you here? There he is. Oh, let's get Rhyman.

Oh, well, up. Thank you. So when the theme park opens slash amusement park, whichever you decide on. Yeah. If you each hypothetically had a ride or attraction, what would it be? Oh. And, you know, maybe what would it be called? But what would your thing be in the park?

Yeah. Do we get to say what we think theirs would be? Yes. Definitely, please. Yeah. So the, yeah. Hmm. I want to be the guy that guesses your weight.

Yeah. That's a good one. It's not a ride, but we're... I would make it fun. Yeah, well, I think you want to just sit down somewhere for a while. I want a roller coaster that right when you think it's going to have fun, puts on the brakes. Yeah.

And you have to get out? And then it's called break fast. Oh. Oh, how about that? How about that? That's good. Yeah. Like, does it go fast and break?

Yeah, like, right when you're taking off, it just throws on the brakes real fast. And you're like, that's... And then you just go back and get out? I haven't thought this through. Like they give you a coffee right before, so you're on there with a hot coffee. Yeah, yeah.

And then they go, oh, we don't have any lids today. Yeah. We got some wet heat. Yes. Yes. We are ride together. A gondola man. A gondola man?

Yeah. Yeah, I like that. Yeah. What would I do? In a gondola, I think it would be low to the ground. And I think it'd be in a lot of people's way. If people would be... Duck?

I think people would be really like, why would they have it this low to the ground? Table high? Table high. Yeah. And just frustrating. It really, yeah. I love that. Dusty, I think yours is definitely indoors.

Yeah, I'd like one that holds people's eyes open like this. And then I just make them watch videos. Of what's really going on out here? I think you should have a moon one. You have a moon roller coaster, and at the end of it, you get there and they go, there's no moon. It's a studio, a movie studio.

You go get there and you hit a light and you go, Oh, it's not a thing we could land on. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. I'm trying to think what I would have. You should have your own theme. We're making one. Yeah, I have the theme park.

Huh? A penguin would be good. Uh, uh... Yeah, a civilian station. That would be, you should get sodas from. It's not a ride either. It's all the civilian stations you get sodas from. Did we tell the story about Nick what Nick does?

Did we? No. When Nick goes on roller coasters? Because he gets the, yeah, we did tell it. Yeah. Yeah, he's a lying skipper. It's so great to be with y'all that you go, yeah, yeah, that's enough. There you go, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, thank you. appreciate this more than me. Yeah. If you watch the podcast when he's on story number 10 that he's told before, I'm like, oh my gosh. We know why it's called Hot Tub Time Machine. That's a great joke, though. We've heard it 20 times. You should hear it more.

Greg Warren's right? Very intense. Very intense. It's an old one. It's an old one. He goes, they're going to need it. Yeah. You got, oh, yeah.

Jerks your head. Add back at the thrush. Yeah, yeah. I think that's it. You gotta get, it's a tent and you go in and you go, can you wrestle a 75-year-old man? But that's what we say. We know you're not 75, but that's just because then you take them. Yeah, so it's, but they believe that you are 75.

That's the hard part when they see you, when they go, 75. Yeah. Yeah. Peanut butter, splash, malon, burger. Oh, yeah. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Oh yeah.

Yeah, that's the winner. That's what that means, but it sounds fun. Yeah. Yeah, it does. If you ever listen to Greg Zach, Nick, you know what it. Yeah. Hey Nick, Greg Warren, I don't know if you've met him, but he does stand-up comedy. All right.

Thank you, dude. Thank you, buddy. Thank you, Ryan. Appreciate it. Hope that clears it up. Ryan. Next up we got Kim Saddleweiser, Irvingdale, Iowa. All right.

I wanted to know if we could meet neighbor Felix. Neighbor Felix. Oh. We're right? He's never been shown. Just partial. Partial. Yeah.

Of neighbor Felix. Is neighbor Felix? Here he is. Here. Here. Come up. He's real. Walk up here.

Just so. Huh? For the video. I still. Oh, that was. Oh. Oh, they got him on a video. Oh, they were doing the half.

This is Felix. There you go. He is real. Good to see you. Felix is now CEO of Nate Land for me. And, yes, all the stuff we do have a lot of crazy, we have a lot of stuff in the works. And so Felix is, you know, I love the organics of all this.

We really were neighbors. Phoenix is very good. He's the consultant, in my joke about the consultant. And so it's all come together. So, yeah, all the stuff we built forward. Taxes. And the bigger thing? No, that's Duane.

He's on the other side. Duane's the actuary. He was the consultant. So it's like that. And... Neighborhood sounds like a real hoot, doesn't it? We got to do it. Hey, we're good talking.

Thank you, Kim. All right, so Candice Goings, Dauphin, Alabama. All right. Roll-tide. Daphne. Okay. Wait, wait, it's Daphne, Alabama? What were you saying?

It has to be Daphne. What were you saying? Dolfing. You could just ask her if she would clear it up for you. Daphne. So what's something about the podcast that has surprised you that maybe you didn't expect when you first started? I would say this right here tonight. Yeah.

The fact that you are here, it really, the idea of it was, again, it was during COVID, and you know the story of that. But it's like, I think it's a comic, you want to be funny, you want to stay funny. I think being funny is a muscle. I did not want to lose that. And so that's when we started it. I liked the idea of Seinfeld, kind of this show about nothing, just trying to be this,

I don't know, break or whatever it is. And I mean, I think I kind of pictured this. I wanted this. I like, because when we do all the Seinfeld references, you know, it's like everybody knows it. You can almost meet a stranger

and you do a Seinfeld reference and then you're kind of like in with them. or whatever and that can happen with a lot of things and so i think creating it uh when i really could never imagine it being that i have done it for this long and uh just you guys like you guys uh being there coming here tonight for this uh how quickly you wanted to come here tonight for this that kind of stuff i couldn't have imagined the ones i've met on the road and all that that's the stuff that i think i could not have imagined uh out of all this so but that's that's That's you guys.

So thank you very much for all that, for you guys being here. For you following listening and checking in. And that's, you know, that's definitely one. Me, not as a hard, I did not think I would have done it this long either. But that might not be good. I don't know. I just did it because we started it for what we started for. Then I was going to get back on the road.

But, I mean, I really, I loved it. I don't, it's not I even want to stop doing it. I don't. It is just, there's a lot. And I hoped to be allowed to pop on their podcast. Like, it's, I still love it. We'll see. But, yeah, and then, you know what?

You guys following the other comics. That's another one. That's the, you know, there's, it's a big deal to, there's a lot of great comics and comics, you know, you know about them, you don't know about them, whatever. but finding the group and the comedy scene that we've even built here in Nashville, Nate Land has become much more than just stand-up,

but stand-up is what I love. So, yeah, we have all these other podcasts on their network. Just, yeah, just kind of how big it has gotten, I guess, would be for me. Yeah, I don't want to follow that. Yeah. I mean, I was surprised when Dusty joined, but...

And I would say what surprises me the most is how what I think of as just regular ideas and thoughts, they all think are so crazy. Well, that's what makes it fun. And the reason Dusty was added, what I liked so much was that, like that it was just fun. Like, you're like, I don't know, man.

I'll talk to anybody and let's see where anything and everything goes. So that's when you were, when we added you on this, it was a big, it made it so, it just made it better. I was tired of them. I get it, you know. I needed, yeah, I needed a veteran. Episode 100, about when you checked out. Yeah. So it was good timing.

Yeah. Not a lot of top 10 moments after that. Even the alternate. I think the even with the gun is great. You know what's funny? The top 10 moments, though, it's like when you, it's just because they were, we were just so new.

And it was just so ridiculous. And I think it's almost like stand-up comedy. You know how in stand-up comedy you remember your old jokes more than you remember like your last special like because you once you do a special you kind of kind of forget it and move on but you remember the jokes that you worked on forever and so I think at the beginning was like that

we didn't really know what this was we were changing the podcast a bunch during it like what episode did you take the computer from Brian yeah 40 episodes too late yeah it was pretty that never made that's that was a bad call

my fault That didn't even make sense while we did that. Well, Aaron is very tech savvy, too. Oh, yeah, yeah. No, it makes sense. I think I'm very tech savvy. Yeah. I think I'm good.

You're good. I'm not saying you're not, but I mean... We could release a podcast with him just looking everything up. Yeah. Well, I think the original plan was for me just to be like a producer, maybe not even in the room. Well, I didn't know for sure. Yeah.

We were trying to see. it was going to see how it goes you were the guys that I came to I did not ask anybody else to be on the podcast and yeah it was like you know because you've been a producer

and it was that and I kind of pictured that like we'd come to you and go to that and like because you're you're great at you know those little one line quip like that kind of quick stuff and I know you're good at that

so I was going to put like if I'm just trying to set you up in the position to where you're going to excel Aaron I knew the least about at the time just I did because he was a younger comic and I knew that he was doing very good and funny and then I mean then we're all here in Nashville but yeah it was

yeah you look yeah you looking this stuff up too was crazy local not a lot going on I called you but you didn't get service through your bunker So, all right. All right. We got two more. We got Frank Cacaballi and Sharon Lloyd. So come on.

Come on, down, Frank from Danville, New Jersey. And Sharon is going to close us out. Frank, are you here? There we go. There we go. There we come. Thank you for your question. by the way.

Appreciate it. I'm very nice. From Daphne, Alabama. Kansas, thank. Daphne. So we got Frank, followed by Shannon. Come on, half a roll my applause for Frank.

After all you've learned from the podcast and now that you guys have traveled almost all of America, can you settle for us once and for all where you can find what is truly the greatest cross-section of this country? The cemetery. Right here.

Yeah. You say a cemetery? Yeah. That's really funny. That's good, Brian. Occasionally I get a quip in. That's where I brought you. Yeah, I mean, out of all the places,

where would be the mix? The DMV? That's a pretty good one, right? Oh, wait, we're not saying states. We're saying actual... Like a place. Yeah, that's a place. Aaron's named like six places.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You've said a truck stop before, Ryan. A truck stop feels like that. Convenience store, the mall. Gas station, McDonald's. Buckees. They do say gas station. Yeah, there you go.

A lot of demons in the gas station. Hold on. They do? They do. Who says it? It's a hot spot for demonic activity. You know who said it. I like that.

A lot of it's going on. A lot of people. A lot of coming and going. You don't know what's going on in there. He's passing through. A lot of coming and going. Oh, wow. I like that.

All right. So you got to be careful. What should we do? because we need gas. Well, you know, you get in, you get out. You don't hang around. It's kind of the rock and the hard place. Yeah.

You know? Because we're not on board of the electric cars. So then in horses, I guess. You got to go, but. Yeah, you got to go. Pray while you're there, though. Yeah. Yeah, she said Bucky's.

I, Buckees could be. Yeah, Buckees is good. It's down here, but Buckees could be a, that could be it. There's a lot of, a lot of stuff going on. There's a lot of stuff going on in Bucky's. I was anti-Buckies for a long time, but now I find... That's surprising.

Yeah. But now I find I'm like, I don't even need anything. I'm like, let's pull in. Let's walk around. Yeah. It's a show. Just check it out, yeah. Yeah.

A theme park. How about that? How about that? A theme park could be Disney World. I hope it to be Nate Land. We're not there yet, so I won't be... But it's like a theme park, Disney World. That could be it.

That'd be great. Huh? Kings Island. Kings Island. I don't know about King's Island. I mean, it is for us, but I mean, I'm talking. I don't know if everybody's going to Kings Island. Maybe.

They should be. Cedar Point. These are all Nate's competitors. Yeah. Yeah, I've never been to Cedar Point. Roller Coasters. Talladega, that's what I'm talking about. Yeah.

Yeah, I like Team Parker Buckees. Okay. Yeah, I'll take it. The gas station with the good music. That was a great little, I like that, little edit. With him and the gas station. What are you talking about? I only want you, you get a monologue at the gas station,

and he's like, cross of America. Yeah, that's the whole reason we're... That's the point of the question, dude. Like is that he said that. I mean... I'm just trying to do my part here. Cross section in Nashville. Nick will be a ride and it will be just meeting.

It'll be meeting Nick. It'll just be a chair in a room and you go meet Nick. And you go meet Nick. The parking garage. Yeah. The parking garage, that's... What I, that could have been up there for me, the parking garage story. That's one of the best stories I've ever heard.

That's great. Yeah. Him me and Leonardo Caprio was pretty fun too. You didn't know that. I don't know who it was. Yeah. Yeah. He goes, all right, man, I'll see you.

He's wearing a hat. Yeah. All right. Thank you, buddy. Appreciate it, man. Thank you. Frank. And also, thank you, Greg.

for judging the out of the pronunciation of Frank's name. All right, Sharon Lloyd. Hello. From Tennessee, bring us home. Hey, Bear. Hey, Bear. Okay, you guys are all on the road together. There's only two hotel rooms available.

Who's rooming with whom? Oh, man. I think Nate's got his own room. That's exactly right, yeah. I like that. And I guess I sleep in the middle, because you need the plugs for the C-Mack. I mean, I didn't know we would solve that that quick. We're done.

Sharon? You got white noise just all around. Just dark baiter. You got to sleep. Sharon comes to Nate Land Live every Monday. Oh, Sharon. Thank you. Yes. Great to see you.

Thank you so much. You always ask me for a shirt, and I'm going to sell you one soon. Yeah. All right, so we're getting near the end of here. We've talked about the last few weeks a little bit where you're going, but kind of talk about your vision for the rest of the year, since we won't be seeing you as much, for yourself. All right, yeah.

So we have a game show coming out February 25th. ABC, Greg Warren is on it. Julian McCull is on it. It's a fun game show. That starts February 25th. it was a game show that I kind of came up with on the road so again it's you know I want to make I just want to make entertainment for people

and not that I'm going to do it right or wrong I don't know if I can not office going to be good not as well whatever I know I have boundaries in my head I know what I will stay what I like to try to stay behind I want you to sit with your family and watch TV and eat dinner and why it'd be a game show and I want you to, we have the movie coming out March 13th. Thank you.

Please go to that. They're all talking about movie theaters are dead in Hollywood. I still think people want to go to them. I know it's expensive. I know there's a lot of things, but I still believe that people want to go out and want to go do stuff, and I see it at the shows. And so, you know, getting to the experience

and the idea of the theme park is the same way. I just want to keep the trust I think that I have with you. That's my main goal of this is to just not break that trust. I want you to see when you see Nate Land, you can know what it is, and you're not going to have to worry about it. And like it's like, you know, we're not making stuff. I always say I'm not making it for kids,

but I don't want your kids, I don't want your kids just have to run out of the room because you got something on. I think we can make a lot of things that can fit. So I'm heading more into that direction. I'm still doing stand-up. And I know I've talked about stopping that. I'm not stopping it now.

We're going to do another tour. I think there will. I don't know. I said that and then you go back and forth. I don't know. I don't know what, I mean, honestly, I don't know what I'm being, you know. I just want to make it for us. to introduce you to other comics, to try to help bring up other comics, other actors,

other anybody, just make them, be able to have work and bring the excitement back. I love it. I love producing it and like writing it or like coming up. I love all this so much. And so, yeah, that's, you know, it's hard to exactly say the plan because I just don't know. but that's what I think is the most exciting part. And so, yes. And I do think there will be a point where I will feel,

I've always thought this from the beginning, because it's always like, you know, when someone says, when's enough is enough. And then so I'm going until I get to that moment. I don't think that will be long gone. I'm not trying to go for something exactly, but it's like I'm just trying to go to, I'll know when enough is enough.

So we'll see where, you know, we have a game. We have movies, a theme part, which is insane. This theme park is, it's like, yeah, it's insane that we're even, it's even a thing to be talked about, you know? I'm someone that I grew up here. You know, and again, this would be, just to say it to you or to your kids or for them to hear it. Like, again, I come from Old Hickory. We do not have, we did not come from any, you know, I don't know, we just didn't, it was, we lived as normal of a life as you could live.

And so for me to get to this point is, it's truly insane. But I mean, yeah, if I can do this, if you can envision anything and get it in your head and trust and just follow your process, follow what you think. is right. The best thing ever did was not, you know, there was moments where I felt I could have went another route or I could have gotten

political or dirtier. And I don't even, you can go, if that is your route, then go do that. Whatever your route be that is. But for me, my route was not that. And there was moments where you just could see like, man, it feels like it was taken too long.

But it's, I stayed the course. And since I stayed there from the beginning, I would just tell you, if you know in your heart, if you're doing something that you're supposed to go do it, just stick to it because it will, it just, it all comes and it comes big. And it comes when you're ready for it. And I mean, yeah, it is one of those. Like, if I can do it, I mean, there's no, I mean, you've heard the words I've said. it's unbelievable that I could even be here.

Everybody's like, how did this happen? Yeah. Yeah. Yes, I just want, you know, we have a lot of kids listen to this and I just, them just go do, just if you become obsessed, if you want to do something crazy,

you've got to be obsessed with it. Remember, no one cares if you're doing good or bad. No one really cares. They don't, just be. you got to care. And so you just care for yourself and you keep doing it. And then you can do really

whatever you want to do. I shouldn't be here. So the fact that we are, I think all of us would probably think that. So, yeah, I don't know. But that's the, I don't know if that answered any of it.

I didn't really know what's that. I forgot the question. How much do I weigh? Well, we're, the three of us, you're going to keep doing a podcast. There's been a lot of talk, a lot of guessing about what the title of the new podcast is going to be. And this is something we've mentioned in multiple episodes. So take a look.

I like that. I think maybe in the beginning of, you know, being a public figure at this point. Wow. Well, you know what I mean, though. I'm not saying a, come on, guys. That's crazy, dude. We're all public figure. I don't think Angel Jackson ever said that time.

This is public figure stuff right now. Yeah, this is public figure stuff. The public figure strikes again, hashtag team dust it. I'm not trying to be, you know, whatever. I am a public figure. I'm a public figure. I'm a public figure. And I'm a public figure in public.

Public public. I told you that I was a public figure. Ron's a public figure. Public figure. Yeah. To the public. Public figure. And he was dying for the public to know about it.

But public figure, I think, is better than saying, you know, a famous person. Big wig. But that's what I mean. I'm a slave. I'm a BIP. Big shot. Yeah. Top dog.

I'm a star. I'm eminence. Heavy way. Or just say I'm a comedian. Back to public. Public figure. Public figure. Public figure.

Public figure. Public figure. Public figure. You are going to allow the public figure. Some people know who I am. Public figures. Public figures. Public figures.

Public figures. I think it's America. It's the public figures out of America. Yes. When you're a public figure. That's awesome. All right. That's amazing.

I mean, Dusty, it's pretty crazy. You're the reason we got a title for this deck. Yeah. Yeah, I took over the podcast. You took over the podcast. That was the play in the whole time. It was a slow play. Get in, get made out.

That's right. And take over. And if you don't like the name, it was a text thread that lasted. like two and a half weeks, you should have seen some of the stuff. That was the best one. And it is what it is.

I know. Literally cannot say. The worst ones we would, yes. Was what? Well, the worst one. It's just like, I don't think, I don't know, nothing was meant by them, but we were like,

nah, we can't call it that. I was like, when you said bad land, like when you guys that kind of came up with that, but then it was, it's like, that's like a video game. That's like everything. And I wasn't into it.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
