Without a single person named Nate Nathan or Nathaniel for half the shows!

Hello Folks! I discovered Nate last Summer towards the end of a 12 hour drive when I was driving and the only one still awake. I was laughing so hard I was crying, which I needed so badly after the tough few months of driving back and forth from NC to IN to take care of my mom who had emergency surgery due to dementia. I’ve had a lot of driving time over the past year because I had to clean out her house and move her across the country to be closer to me but living in a memory care unit. I decided to go back and start listening from the first episode and after listening to the comment from the gentleman who started playing the show in his car while driving his autistic son, I decided to try that with my Mom while she is in my car. It’s hard to find things to talk about with her since she now doesn’t even remember that I am her daughter. From the first time she listened to the podcast she started smiling and laughing. It made my heart happy that you all could reach her with your stories and laughter. I now play an episode every time I have to drive her to a doctor appointment, etc. and she laughs each time. Keep up the great work! I love that it feels like we are just sitting in the room with all of you. The laughter is always contagious and I can’t thank you enough for continuing to do this podcast even though you are all a lot busier than when it started.

I listen while I’m driving and I’ll be laughing, by myself, knowing that if anyone is looking at me has got to be wondering what I’m doing or I’m on? Keep up the great work, love the show!

Hey y’all, I’m also from Nashville and went to eclipse in Paducsh as well. That’s where my dad from so we met with one of his high school buddies and went to see the eclipse, and the hippies around us where going nuts! It was a great time and the dogs where acting nuts. We where by a pond and the frogs where croaking like crazy!

My sister Chrissy and I just went and saw Greg Warren live in his hometown of St. Louis. It was an awesome show and we just realized we are Nateland groupies! We are see Dusty Slay on May 31 and Nate the middle of June (after he dissed us for SNL 😂). When are Buckwheat and Aaron coming to the Show Me State?? We need to make it a perfect five for five! Seriously we love all that you do and man Warren was a complete hoot as always! Missy Brown St. Louis, MO

Best podcast ever!! The week when Nate shortened it to an hour was torturous. I wish the episodes extended as long as 3 hours sometimes. It feels like I’m listening to a new comedy special nearly every week with each episode.

This is what a podcast should be. Always funny, usually unpredictable and wholesome entertainment.

Thanks for all the laughs!

AARON THANK YOU FOR THE EMINEM REFERENCE

Spoiler alert? Just wrapping up the Poetry episode. Obviously love when Nate’s headlining, but I had so much fun listening to this episode. From the train wreck-style laughs on “poims” to Dusty’s dismissive ad-read over Ode to Joy. You guys convinced me I need to listen to every episode no matter who is on the road. Thanks for the laughs!

Hey Guy’s, I think my name is one you will be able to pronounce. From last episode, talking about the popularity of kids on YouTube. I think the next guest on Nashville Hot with Dusty should be a kid. your welcome

Hey Bears, saw the guys in Boise; Fantastic! My husband and I saw the Raincheck tour in 2022 as well. I realized tour openers Nic Novicki and Gary V have been on the podcast, but Joe Zimmerman hadn’t. What a great surprise to hear him the following week! We missed Grill-Master Aaron for sure, but Jalopy Joe was a great foil for Nard Dogg Nate, Dusty Springboard, and Bacon Bits Bates. P.S. Nate and Joe, loved the shoutouts on stage to Boise. Hopefully next time you’re in town you’ll get a chance to visit the World Center For Birds of Pray; they have condors, peregrine falcons, a harpy eagle and all sorts of rad wildlife. Though small, the Boise Zoo has some fun birds, as well, including penguins. There’s also a reptile museum. It’s every bit as stinky and sketchy as you could hope for. Thanks for all the laughs guys. We, also look forward to Dusty, Aaron and Boiled Beets making it out to Boise sometime.

I’m a newer Nateland listener. I’m enjoying it. I just found out I have the same birthday as Nate except I’m a year younger. I just listened to the food episode and am glad to know I have another year before I have to schedule a colonoscopy. I came for the comedy but stay for the expert health and diet information 😁

Love the guys, but my personal opinion is podcasts shouldn’t really be longer than an hour (1.5hr max). If it’s longer than that, I just mark as played.

Hey guys Loved the Florida episode. Listened to it traveling to see my dad in LaGrange, GA. Dusty’s comments about the family taking lunch sandwiches to Six Flags had me rolling. My family did the same exact thing. Nothing like a hot ham and cheese in the middle of summer smelling that dirty asphalt parking lot. Good times! Also, I had a Dolphins and Cowboys starter jacket as a kid. Still have the Cowboys. Thanks for all you guys do! Patrick Williamson

I listened to one episode of Nateland and enjoyed it so much I decided to start from the very beginning, so I know this comment is very old news. However, Nate was correct when he said how he pronounced Elizabethtown, KY. I’m from near there and it is pronounced “Elizabeth - town” each word said the same way it would be on its own. Also, I have only ever heard penguin pronounced “pinguin” by anyone, anywhere, so Nate and Brian are spot-on there.

Our son was born March 7th. His name is Waylon Mato (pronounce Moth-oh) Bland. His middle name is the Lakota word for Bear. We chose that name to honor his mother’s side of the family, but also so we can yell “Hey Bear!” More often. His first name came from Waylon Jennings, of course. That’s for my southern side of the family. Love the show! Keep it up folks!!

Listening to Dusty talk about his experiences in Panama City Beach had me laughing so hard I nearly choked on my breakfast. From his dad’s 4th wife to toenail fungus, I laughed harder and harder as his story spiraled. Love this podcast!

So I was on a mission trip in Mexico where we handed out water filters and shared the Gospel. One of the houses our group went to actually had a dog on the roof! This wasn't a short house either; it was two floors high. It got even better when the dog stared down at us and started drooling. Then the lady who owned the house grabbed a towel and I thought it was to protect her from the dog drool. Turns out it was to block the Sun. One of the highlights of the trip for sure. (P.S. my last name is Skjervem, pronounced Sure-vum. Love the pod, keep it up!)

Can we please get another bracket episode! But don’t speed through it. Maybe best nba teams, players, football teams, college football teams, or march madness bracket. Love the show

Very funny show. Can we hear about barometer’s story when he was at an action for his Cd. Nate said he was crying laughing when he heard the story.

Just wanted to let you guys know I fast forward through every commercial on podcasts but I actually listen to yours because you guys actually read them and you go rogue sometimes and it can end up hilarious. Love the podcast, it’s always funny and not at all hard to listen to.

Hello folks and Hey bear! I discovered the Pod last summer and have finally caught up to the current week. Glad you decided to go back to 2 hours. Listening makes me feel like I am right in the room with you all. I’m a year older than Nate, so when he takes a trip down memory lane, I’m right there with the same memories whether it’s toys or TV shows. I checked tour dates for all of you to see when you might be in or near Richmond, Va…I even checked dates for Big Time Bates! Only Dusty will be there. So it looks like I’ll be having a good time either July 19th or 20th at the Funny Bone (your welcome for the free plug). My wife wants to buy me ticket for my birthday. I really do enjoy and appreciate ALL of you and what you contribute to the Podcast. You guys make my workday go by so much better. Thank you guys so much for putting something out there that my son can listen to as well. Hope these words were easy enough for Nate to read. Love you all.

Was driving across Ohio and PA on Friday to turn over my manual transmission car to my nephew who turns 16 this year. All sorts of thoughts about my history of driving manual transmissions going through my head - I even had the thought that it’s an ideal car for a kid as they can’t be on their phone. Had saved this week’s episode for the back half of the drive to keep me going and couldn’t believe it when Nate opened the show asking the rest of the crew about driving manual transmissions. This show often has its finger on the pulse of my life - which may not be the best given how random the topics covered can be. That said, there’s not a podcast I look forward to more than this one. The time you guys spend entertaining us all is not lost on me, and I love you all for it.

I have been a folk for about a year and a half. After my first episode I told my husband this was the dumbest thing I have ever heard. The next Wednesday I tried it again and I’ve been hooked. I anxiously wait for each new episode on Wednesdays. The announcement to 1 hr shows broke my heart but I understand you all have a lot going on. It felt like Christmas when you walked it back. This time brings so much happiness to my week because for 2 hours I can block out all of the stress and just enjoy the conversations and laughs. Looking forward to more laughs to come this year! Thank you for putting your feel-good energy out!

So fun!

I’m from Crenshaw County, AL (just south of Montgomery) and my dad also eats buttermilk and cornbread in a bowl as an after-supper dessert, similar to how some people eat a bowl of cereal late at night. I wasn’t big on the buttermilk growing up, but I LOVED some “sweet milk” and cornbread in a bowl after dinner. Thanks for keeping the memories flowing, love the nostalgia on this channel. God bless y’all!

Hadn’t heard of Nate until SNL and was only watching for the Foo Fighters. The cold open sold me. I’m married to and work with engineers who love the units and measures sketch. I immediately bought tickets to the Omaha show. Since then I’ve watched every special I can find and listened to Nateland non-stop. I was very pleased to hear Brian on the podcast too. I’m only to 2021 but thank you all because half my podcasts didn’t return from the strike. Ya’ll are better anyway.

Hello folks! I’ve been a long time listener of the pod, all the way back to episode 2! This is the 1st time I’ve felt lead to leave a comment regarding the buttermilk and corn bread comment Dusty mentioned. Cornbread and buttermilk is not only “chambers county” thing my grandparents often use to eat it as a treat! Hey bear all the way from GA! War eagle btw

What a callback from Dusty after the cow tipping conversation saying “and now tipping is out of control.” It got no love from the rest of the crew. Also here’s one vote for “Farming part 2.”

Nate reminds me of a friend who dipped Copenhagen and swallowed the juice. He clears his throat like a snuff swallower.

I need clarification. In the discussions about who would blend in with what sports team best - Bumble Bee or Dusty - a few references have been made to Dusty’s short stature. He has always seemed tall and this contradiction to my observations is unsettling. I find myself trying to figure out how high his chair is set, compared to the others at the table. Tall or short, the answer doesn’t even really matter. Just tell me, are my eyes deceiving me or did I miss a joke somewhere along the way? Perhaps if this podcast was only one hour, It wouldn’t be an issue. But I think we can all agree, two hours is WAY TOO LONG to be making unnecessary height calculations;) Height aside, y’all are the best. What I love most is that watching the podcast feels as natural as, and sometimes as awkward as, sitting in a room with a group of friends. Thanks for including all of us in your fun!

I love butthole bates

“How many pounds in a kilobyte?” Best unnoticed comment from Dusty! 🤣🤣

I just went to Nate’s show in NE. I loved it. Beezlebub you are a great comedian. I also loved Mike, Julian, and Justin. Guard that water tank with your life and your lantern.

Great podcast with funny clean comics!

Wow. Dusty goes on the Corolla Podcast and doesn’t even shout out Nateland. Hahaha.

The show could be one hour or ten, either would be great! Here’s a tip: You can listen at double speed! Be warned, you will be shocked if you see Nate in person and forget he doesn’t speak or think at double time.

I could listen all day!

It is chaise lounge like sh ae s. These are the chair of the elite 90 house wife! Come on bobcat

Absolutely love this podcast! I started from the beginning and each show just gets better and better. So sad to hear that y’all are going to shorten it. I understand time constraints - I think I would prefer every other week with 2 hours than and hour each week but we will see how and hour works. Love all of them and how they banter.

I realize my name is relatively easy to pronounce and apologize in advance for that. It’s imperative, however that I write in about a Midwest scandal currently in operation which may be of interest to The Nateland crew. I and and my husband have been enjoying weekly trivia night at a local pizza + pub in Joplin, Missouri. We recently discovered a rival table who calls themselves “Hey Bear.” I think they’re cheating because they’re almost always in the lead. I can never tell exactly which table it is, but I’m pretty sure they’re a bunch of college guys boozing it up and googling the trivia answers on their phones. Since I am a Christian woman, mother and wife, trash talking would be unconscionable. I hoped you might speak on my behalf and let them know…”We’re comin’ for you Hey Bear.”

Beautiful Bates with a boyish balding, Fossils were made in one day! They re-created the conditions that they believe took place and created fossils in the lab in one day. These fossils were identical to the ones they find out in nature down to the microscopic level. Dude, you gotta tell Dusty!

First no show because of snow… y’all travel for a living and don’t check the weather ahead of time? Followed by only an hour? Beginning of the end.

Just started listening and I’m starting at the beginning. I love to hear Nate, Jack McBrayer and Brian from the Family Guy talk about anything and everything. Keep up the good work. I’m hoping to be caught up by March!

This podcast is a huge breath of fresh air! The guys are entertaining while keeping it CLEAN and family-friendly. I appreciate that so much. It's also educational - and in a fun, interesting way. Keep up the great work and thanks for the entertainment!

Don’t shorten the podcast

I understand the time restraints but I’d be so sad if you shorten to an hour! Some of the best material comes from later in the show when you guys get a little more punchy.

My dad got surgery and he loves your podcast his name cal. Please give him a shoutout it would make his day

The banter and wit is extraordinary. Bartholemew is a perfect host
