  • Ep 06: Nathan For You
    Oct 31 2023

    Jeremiah and Phil delve into their most contentious subject yet. A critical and cult favorite, Nathan For You is a docu-reality comedy show where Nathan Fielder helps "struggling" businesses. Phil hates the show because he thinks it's just a guy messing with people's livelihoods. Jeremiah shows him two episodes - The Anecdote and The Richards Tip - both from season four. The former breaks the format of the show and doesn't involve a business at all. The latter involves a plan that goes exactly as intended. Will Jeremiah move the needle in Nathan's favor? Listen and find out.
