    I’ve definitely learned more during this episode than any other episode with 100% thanks to Graham Kay. He is so knowledgeable. I could listen to him spit out facts and give historical references all day. Is he married? Asking for a friend..... in all seriousness, loved this episode. I love every episode. Don’t ever stop!

    If the 3 of you were vegetables, Aaron would be the onion. Seems simple enough, but its actually layered, and can be prepared a number of different ways yielding distinct tastes and textures. Brian would be cilantro. You never eat it by itself, lots of people say it tastes like soap, but its an integral part of a lot of great dishes. Nate would be the potato. Not much on paper but it's the greatest average American vegetable.

    As a proud Canadian from Saskatchewan, it was nice to hear my province get a shout out. Nate, almost everyone mispronounces it so you get a pass. It is always cold and winter here, but no polar bears. The fact that there are so many in Churchill makes me want to go more. If that’s how I go, I’m strangely ok with it. Awesome episode.

    This past weekend my husband and I were in Indy to see Nate and we actually got to meet Graham. We saw him walking around with a guy that looked like Nate, but was actually Nate's friend from high school. Anyway, Graham was a really nice guy and we enjoyed chatting with him for a few minutes. After we left we thought it would be fun if they did a Nateland on Canada with Graham as a guest. Guess they were reading our minds. Great episode guys. Keep it up!

Graham kay was well versed in all things Canadian which made it interesting and fun. I think I even learned things about my own country I didnt know! I grew up in the Okanagan and the Ogopogo was kind of our local mascot for the region. So cool to hear you guys bring it up. I really enjoyed this episode, keep it up!

    Brian, I’m glad I finally searched your standup after watching you on Nateland and loved your texting yourself joke. I just did this last week when I woke up at 2am and sent myself a question intending to use it as a reminder to find the answer to the next day. The next day in the middle of the day I looked at my phone and saw the text, not realizing it was from ME, I texted back an answer. then co-workers had to ask why I was laughing so hard after I realized I was answering a middle of the night text to myself.
    Also, I’m going to find it hard to believe you’re talking about anyone other than Nate in your stand up when you tell of crazy things “your buddy” said to you.

When I listen through my headphones I can pass off my “snort” laugh as allergies. I think if Buckets is Newman on Seinfeld then Aaron has to be Puddy. I can definitely picture him painting his face Notre Dame blue and gold for a national championship game!

    Hello Folks 👋
    As a die hard Mariner's fan I can say that Graham is 100% correct about the Blue Jay's fans coming to Seattle. They are somewhat less polite than your average Canadian, but still far more tolerable than Yankees or Red Sox fans. On a completely different note I was raised outside Seattle, but am adopted with Canadian ancestry. Even from a young age I have always been able to skate and frequently say "Soary" in completely unprompted situations. Love the show and I'm so happy to enjoy a podcast with two of my top seven favorite comics. Barometric Pressure brought the thunder this episode too with facts that are interesting and not worrisome. Soary for the lengthy comment as well.
    Thanks and love the show,
    Graham H. (different Graham, not Graham Kay)

As much as Newfoundland sounds nice, I think Nate would fit in well in the prairies. If 68% of canada has post-secondary schooling, we are the 32%.

Seven of us drove 9 hours from rural Illinois to Tennessee with the women and children in the back of my dad’s pickup. Don’t worry, he put down some carpet scraps and a couple bean bags for the women to sit in. We kids laid in our sleeping bags. Don’t remember one thing about the World’s Fair, just riding in the back of that truck.

    Graham just confused the Napoleonic wars with the French and Indian war (Seven years war if you're talking about it in a global context). In that war, George Washington actually served with the British army, as a lieutenant. Quebec became British in 1763 at the conclusion of the Seven Years war, along with any French held parts of India - there was also a bit of a reshuffling on the European continent. The Napoleonic wars weren't for another 50 years after that, and to us here it's better known as the war of 1812 - that actually involved an American invasion of Canada that didn't go very well, and led to the sack and burning of Buffalo, NY by British forces, in relation for the sack and burning of York, ON, by American forces. Also, famously, the White House was burned, Fort McHenry was shelled (which is described in the Star Spangled Banner), and Andrew Jackson won the battle of New Orleans for the Americans a few weeks after the war ended (neither side had gotten the news yet). A flurry of unconnected fun facts for all to enjoy! (Which I'm about 90% sure of)

    Nate asked about Chicago's World's Fair. They did host a couple. The most popular one was where HH Holmes scratched his serial killer itch in 1893. His "Murder Castle" was right by the fair. He opened a hotel with torture devices and hidden rooms. Maybe Nate, Aaron, and Baba Ghanoush should do an episode on serial killers?
    Also, something similar to Nate's "Gymbership", I think altar call songs should be called, "Hymnvitationals".

    Personality wise, Aaron is most like Pam from the Office. Started out timid, growing into his own and slowly becoming one of the favorites.

    Hello Folks! I think the most Tennesseean thing I’ve ever heard is that the world’s fair came to Knoxville, gave them a Sun sphere, someone shot it, and no one really cared. I imagine folks saying, “To be honest it looks a lot better now.” Great show, lots of laughs, keep it up! P.S. From now on whenever I hear someone say something smart or have a good idea I’m going to tell them, “They have 7 on the board.”

    This podcast has officially superseded it's category of "educational podcast." They're teaching us things that are unknown by anyone else. Nate says that land can be ice (27:55) when it was previously believed that only water could be ice. Aaron told us last episode that the War of 1812 was only 1 year long when it was previously believed to be almost 3 years long. And virtually the only thing Barry Bonds contributes to the podcast is pre-screened, typed out, "fun" facts....

    Nate, Gymbership is perfect! It goes with one of my favorite words a child has ever come up with; I was a nanny and my work kid came up with nummins. IMO this was a way better name for gummy vitamins.

    I think there should be a contest where people send in video submissions to be a guest on the show for the obscure state they are from. I am thinking about my home state of Connecticut and I am wondering if they will ever have a guest for the Connecticut episode. The winner can come on the show and also help Beanbags prep the info for that episode. I bet you could find some pretty entertaining people for some random states.

    The fact Aaron has been to Knoxville, but never noticed or saw the sunsphere is mind-boggling. Albeit, the sunsphere is smaller than the space needle, but you don’t have to go out of your way to see it.

    The term 'kitty-corner' has nothing to do with cats. Instead, it stems from the expression 'cater-corner,' which is derived from “quatre,” the French for “four.” The term was used to describe the way the dots are placed on a dice positioned at number four, diagonally from one another. So actually its better to say CATTY then KITTY

    The sun sphere in Knoxville was featured in an episode of the Simpsons Aaron! Bart ran away from home to go see it. Of course, when he got there it ended up being full of old baseball caps that nobody wanted. But still, you don't get much bigger recognition than the Simpsons! Also, thank you Bristol for always knowing something about northeast TN! That's where I live, so it's nice when you throw out info about it.

    I worked retail for 20 years, and I can confirm Nate is correct regarding 12/26 being a bigger shopping day than Black Friday... at least with my previous employer. This might have been the first time Nate was right and everyone else was wrong.

    I saw Aaron in Kelowna B.C Canada. He was 10x funnier than the guy he opened for. He must be embarrassed to have preformed here if he didn't even mention it in the Canada episode, even when they gave 5 minits to the ogopogo which apparently lives here. Still love him though, Nate and Graham aren't bad either.
