I recently watched Nate Bargatze's stand-up comedy special, "The Tennessee Kid," on Netflix, and I was thoroughly entertained. What impressed me most was Bargatze's ability to deliver hilarious, relatable jokes without relying on profanity. His clean humor made for a refreshing change of pace.

If you're looking for a comedy special that's both funny and family-friendly, "The Tennessee Kid" is an excellent choice. Nate Bargatze proves you don't need to sacrifice humor for decency. Rating: 3/5 stars
