    Do you mean the least funny mega-star touring comedian ever? Because certainly open mike nights are full of comedians who are much less funny than Brian Regan.
    Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

      He just doesn't swear much or talk about his dick.

      For the record, my whole family loves Nate. With the exception of my youngest. She has a Tick-style aversion to him.

          This explains so much.

            Nate is funny.

              If it wasn't for the LDS population....this dude would be performing in Pahrump. Not that there is anything wrong with that. I would hardly consider him a mega-star.

                Regan isn't my favorite comedian, but he's much closer to the mega-star level than Pahrump - with or without the LDS population.

                • I don't like Regan's bits when he goes nuts and starts yelling, but overall I think he's very good (his observations about being the hospital always make me laugh). I know Jerry Seinfeld is a big fan (see, e.g., Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee).

                        To be fair....I didn't say anything about the intellectual capacity of the LDS fan base. I just said that a lot of his fan base is LDS because he is a clean comedian.

                        The only folks that I know that share his clips are LDS. The only folks that I know that swear he is funny is LDS. That is all that I am saying.

                            That likely speaks to the circles you run in more than anything.

                              Ehhh just because he's popular in Utah doesn't mean he's not popular elsewhere. I hardly think it's the LDS population buttressing his national tours playing big theaters.

                                I saw him in 2 liberal enclaves, Newport, RI and Eugene, OR. Both venues were full, and I’d wager I was the only Mormon at the Newport show!
