Nate Bargatze is back to make up dates on his Raincheck tour

Not everything is a joke to Nate Bargatze. The veteran comic sincerely appreciates the fans who held onto their tickets for shows from the early days of the pandemic. “It means a lot to me that people held on to their tickets for two years,” Bargatze said while calling from Lake Tahoe. “That means a lot to me.”

Bargatze, who will headline Friday at Bing Crosby Theater, is delivering a new set on his aptly dubbed Raincheck tour that will be captured for a TV special in September. “I’m going to talk a lot about my family,” Bargatze said. “I’ll talk about being first born and just go with some life stories. I’ll talk about how I lost weight and what it’s like to be 43.”

It’s not easy to explain the box office appeal of Bargatze, who doesn’t have a TV vehicle or notable film credits. The same goes for his pals Tom Segura and Bert Kreischer. However, all three standups have blown up as live entertainers.

“Comedy has changed so much from when I started in this business (in 2003),” Bargatze said. “There wasn’t Netflix or podcasts. Those are huge reasons why guys like Tom, Bert and I have such an audience without a sitcom or movies.

“The other huge thing is that comedy is everywhere. Comedy is in your pocket. Pull out your phone, and you have access to some amazing comedians. Appearing on a podcast, not just having one, but appearing on a popular one can change your life.”

UFC commentator and comic Joe Rogan’s podcast “The Joe Rogan Experience” has been a game-changer for Bargatze. “Joe’s podcast is massive,” Bargatze said. “His podcast is more influential than a sitcom. If he stopped doing a podcast to focus on a sitcom, that would be a step down. That’s how much the industry has changed.”

What hasn’t changed for comics is that they still have to be amusing to attract and keep an audience. Bargatze, who hails from sleepy Old Hickory, Tenn., jokes about relatable subjects such as travel, family and pop culture. The married father of a 10-year-old daughter delivers a hilarious bit on how the young mothers from MTV’s “Teen Mom” have the right idea.

“It would be a lot easier to have kids when you’re 16 years old,” Bargatze said. “When you’re my age and you have a young kid, you get tired. But, I love being a father and a husband. I talk about the fights my wife and I have, and not only is it something people can connect with, what I talk about comes from a place of love. I’m not an angry comic. My family comes first.”

After living in Los Angeles for the past decade, Bargatze moved back to the Volunteer State for the sake of his daughter. “I wanted her to have a normal life,” Bargatze said. “Los Angeles is full of the abnormal. The cool thing is that I can have a career, and she can have a regular childhood. It’s all worked out for us.”

There was a time when Bargatze wondered while working out material in New York during his early years if his career in comedy would pan out. “You never know what’s going to happen in this business,” he said. “You pay your dues for years. When good things happen, it might not work out as you hoped.”

Timing is everything in comedy. Bargatze laughs at how his first Netflix special debuted when iconic boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr. battled the legendary Manny Pacquiao in what was dubbed the “Fight of the Century” in May 2015.

“Nobody watched my special that night,” Bargatze said. “I didn’t even watch it since I wanted to see that fight so bad. Talk about bad luck. But that’s the way it goes sometimes. It was just one of those things that was out of my control. But what I can control is my material, and that’s the cool thing about what I do. There’s no gatekeepers. It’s all me when it comes to the important stuff.”

Bargatze is sincerely looking forward to returning to Spokane. “When someone says, ‘Is there a town you love that people don’t necessarily think of?’ I say that town is Spokane,” Bargatze said. “I always mention your city. I’ve been there a bunch of times, and it’s always amazing.

“The first time I went there, you were having that basketball tournament (Hoopfest) with the three-on-three games. It was awesome. I stood around and watched people play basketball. I’m a big fan of Spokane. It’s such a cool town, and I get to come back to it.”

Nate Bargatze: The Raincheck Tour

Don’t be deceived by Nate Bargatze’s soothing southern drawl—his punchlines pack a major punch. The squeaky-clean standup might remind you of Jim Gaffigan or Jerry Seinfeld, but Nate’s chill style is entirely his own. With well-spun stories and deadpan one-liners, Nate is on everyone’s list of “comics to watch,” including  Variety ,  Vulture ,  Rolling Stone ,  Esquire  (and just about anyone who’s seen Nate perform live). His albums  Yelled At By A Clown  and  Full Time Magic  paved the way for two spectacular Netflix specials,  The Greatest Average American  and  The Tennessee Kid .

Saturday Night Live  is preparing to dance the night away on May 4 with host and musical guest Dua Lipa . 

During Ryan Gosling 's hosting gig on April 13, SNL announced that the 28-year-old singer will take on both coveted roles next month as she continues to promote her upcoming third studio album,  Radical Optimism.

"DOUBLE DUTY DUA," the "Levitating" singer wrote on Instagram late Saturday evening, just one day after dropping "Illusion," the new song off the highly anticipated release. 

The hosting gig will immediately follow the May 3 release of Radical Optimism , which Dua first announced back in March. 

She previously stopped by Studio 8H at 30 Rockefeller Plaza back in January 2021 to sing "Don't Start Now" and "Levitating" with host Kristen Wiig , who just recently returned to her old digs for the April 6 episode alongside RAYE. 

It's been an epic season of SNL thus far as Saltburn star Jacob Elordi helmed the first episode of the new year, alongside musical guest Reneé Rapp. Following Dakota Johnson and Justin Timberlake 's SNL return on Jan. 27,  The Bear star Ayo Edebiri made her SNL debut, alongside returning musical guest Jennifer Lopez . Season 49 has also included host and musical guest appearances from Josh Brolin , Ariana Grande , Emma Stone and Sydney Sweeney . 

The NBC sketch comedy show kicked off its 49th season on Oct. 14, and brought SNL alum  Pete Davidson back to Studio 8H to host the premiere.  SNL was forced to go dark and cut its 48th season short  earlier this year due to the Writers Guild of America strike. However, with the WGA reaching a deal with the AMPTP, Saturday Night Live  was able to return to TV.

Check out the full list of the hosts and musical guests who are lending their talent to season 49.

SNL Episode 1 -- Oct. 14, 2023

Pete Davidson hosted the season premiere, alongside the night's musical guest, rapper Ice Spice. The  Dumb Money  star departed the show following season 47, after eight seasons -- most in which he was the youngest cast member. Davidson joined the show when he was just 20 years old and was perhaps most popular for his self-effacing "Weekend Update" appearances.

SNL Episode 2 -- Oct. 21, 2023

Bad Bunny pulled double duty as host and musical guest on Oct. 21. He previously performed back in season 46, during an episode hosted by Regé-Jean Page, in which he made an appearance as an old-timey sailor in one of the night's more memorable sketches.

SNL Episode 3 -- Oct. 28, 2023

Acclaimed comedian Nate Bargatze -- best known for his GRAMMY-nominated stand-up show,  The Greatest Average American  -- made his debut SNL hosting appearance on Oct. 28. He was joined by the Foo Fighters, who made their ninth appearance as musical guests, and their first time back in Studio 8H since season 46.

SNL Episode 4 -- Nov. 11, 2023

Timothée Chalamet made his return to the SNL stage on Nov. 11. The Wonka star previously hosted the sketch comedy series in December 2020, during season 46. This time around, Chalamet was joined by musical guest boygenius.

SNL Episode 5 -- Nov. 18, 2023

Jason Momoa hosted  SNL  for the second time on Nov. 18, with Tate McRae making her musical guest debut. 

SNL Episode 6 -- Dec. 2, 2023

SNL Episode 7 -- Dec. 9, 2023

Adam Driver returned for his fourth time hosting on Dec. 9, in support of his upcoming biopic, Ferrari . Olivia Rodrigo, meanwhile, made her second appearance as musical guest.

SNL Episode 8 -- Dec. 16, 2023

Kate McKinnon returned to Studio 8H for her first time hosting since leaving SNL at the end of season 47 in 2022. She was joined by Billie Eilish as a third-time musical guest.

SNL Episode 9 -- Jan. 20, 2024

The Priscilla star made his SNL debut, hosting the first episode of the New Year. He was joined by musical guest  Reneé Rapp , just a week after the release of her feature film debut, playing Regina George in the musical reimagining of Mean Girls -- and a special appearance by Megan Thee Stallion on her Mean Girls collab with Rapp, "Not My Fault."

SNL Episode 10 -- Jan. 27, 2024

Dakota Johnson hosted  SNL  for the second time, with Justin Timberlake joining as the episode's musical guest. Timberlake made his return to Studio 8H for the first time since December 2013. He's previously served as a host five times and performed on the show six times, including his March 2000 debut with *NSYNC.

SNL Episode 11 -- Feb. 3, 2024

Newly-minted Emmy and Golden Globe winner Ayo Edebiri made her SNL hosting debut on Feb. 3. The Bear star appeared alongside musical guest Jennifer Lopez, who made her fifth appearance on the variety series. 

SNL Episode 12 -- Feb. 24, 2024

Standup comedian Shane Gillis -- who was originally cast in SNL season 45 before being fired for racist and homophobic jokes -- will return to 30 Rock to host, joined by musical guest 21 Savage.
