Nate is the top grossing male comedian in the US. We saw him, Jim Gaffigan, Jerry Seinfeld, and Sebastian Maniscalco at the Hollywood Bowl last year. He’s pretty funny. Nice guy, too. His opening act was a send up of his SNL George Washington (not the school 
) set. He’s definitely a Hollywood outsider, though, to @tsbna44’s point.
Leanne Morgan, also from Tennessee, presented earlier and is the top grossing female comedian in the country.
