Nathan For You

boston gets screwed again

I loved the detail in the RS article where Nathan seemed "genuinely panicked" when the author ordered a turkey sandwich. "Would you be upset if I got a breakfast thing? Should I get what you get?"

Level of quality is so high
The path from promoting a restaurant to Nathan handcuffed to an ex felon in a hotel is so twisty

Also I gotta go to gramercy asap

the negotiation for 1001$ had me in tears

lol at Nathan taking the money from the holocaust charity on loan

I think the old man who used a soldiering iron on his dick could become a new fan favorite

Sometimes you just gotta grimace and soldier iron.

amazing that the episode also featured Nathan taking a hot iron to his *own* junk. man's got some dedication

The individual reservoirs would be linked by a network of tubes that would all lead to a battery powered peristaltic pump for dispensing the chili. Using our intake funnel, we loaded in over thirty pounds of Robert's product that had been blended into a thin paste to ensure an even flow without compromising the flavor.

the pig saves baby goat bit is, it turns out, an excellent object lesson in confirmation bias and bad sourcing. that poor gma woman who gets mocked for being suspicious...

Ok the Mambo No 5 scene is probably the hardest I’ve ever laughed at this show

i spit out my cereal milk when i saw the cd-r in the trash fire

lmfao

so far this season seems pretty forced compared to others

I guess, but aren't nearly all episodes of this show like that? This last episode was clearly not going to go in the direction it was "intended to", but I still think it was one of the best they've ever done

It's easily as good as ever so far imo.

"you can probably do a cup here? a cup or so"

Feel like this season has done good in lightening up after the utter headfuck "the hero"

I remember trying to describe that one to someone and giving up a third of the way through

nah

i wonder what would have happened if Andy would have enthusiastically supported sending the terrorist threat video to Uber lol

I would've liked to see that too

turtle face & vegetables

soft teeth in sauce

also TURN OFF THE MUSIC! TURN OFF THE MUSIC! TURN OFF THE MUSIC!

I can't deal with the fake marriage, so amazing, Nathan is full-tilt insane at this point

i love it so much

nathan is good at towing the line between scripted and actual real stakes - last ep was a mentalist shaggy dog story

Next Episode:

The Anecdote - Nathan hones his skills at telling stories.

just spitballing here but could this have to do with that bizarre appearance on Kimmel where he spends the entire interview telling a story about getting pulled over while in another guy's clothes? I've never seen him do an interview like that and, as mentioned in this thread, the story seemed completely made up.

I wonder how many hours of mediocre footage has to be shot before, say, you get a passenger who seems legitimately triggered by 'Mambo No. 5' or another who delivers a very earnest karaoke performance of 'Yankee Doodle Dandy'.

here's the kimmel appearance

kinda think you're onto something there frogs

I wonder if there will be an episode that explains Nathan's appearance on Conan a few months back pretending to play guitar in Mac Demarco's backing band.

that seems a lot more on-brand than him just rambling about lost luggage

Nathan's the best troll around today. Increasingly I don't buy the consequences of the show, I think it's just smartly edited - but it's always been a comedy show anyway I guess

Ha!! I knew it!!!

“which is typical for two strangers”

"we also got permission to snake her drain for any body parts that mightev fallen in during a shower"

kirsten dunst mustve done the same anecdote analysis research

anyway, next episode involves forming a band in order to sell discount smoke detectors, might explain his appearance with Mac Demarco? was there any loud beeping during the performance??

good call w/ the jimmy kimmel bit. i wonder if they really spent $350,000 making this anecdote a reality

Nathan at the wedding was so hilarious

Man I love Nathan Fielder

LOL this episode

nathan's the best

Lol @ the irony of how he lies to all these people in order to have a "true" story to tell on Kimmel.

Also loved this as satire of the late-night talk show format, which is a pretty lame, tired thing deserving of savage mockery imo.

Just caught up on the new season. This show fucking destroys me.

On season 4 but still weirdly niche. It’s probably the funniest thing on TV.
