That is, until the summer after seventh grade when he slipped, fell off a cliff, hit his head on a rock, and \"my skull got, like, dented or something.\" Before this accident, he dreamed of being \"an electric engineer, or a doctor that does brain stuff, or a math teacher who teaches the hardest math on earth.\" Afterwards, all he could do was stand-up comedy.* But the \"brain stuff\" industry's loss is everyone else's gain because Nate went on to become one of today's top-grossing comedians, breaking both attendance and streaming records. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In his highly anticipated first book, Nate talks about life as a non-genius. From stories about his first car (named Old Blue, a clunky Mazda with a tennis ball stick shift) and his travels as a Southerner (Northerners like to ask if he believes in dinosaurs), to tales of his first apartment where he was almost devoured by rats and his many debates with his wife over his chores, his diet, and even his definition of \"shopping.\" He also reflects on such heady topics as his irrational passion for Vandy football and the mysterious origins of sushi (how can a California roll come from old-time Japan?). \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eBig Dumb Eyes\u003c\/i\u003e is full of heart. It will make readers laugh out loud and nod in recognition, but it probably won't make them think too much. *Nate's family disputes this entire story. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHailed as \"The Nicest Man in Stand-Up,\" by The Atlantic Magazine, and \"One of the Funniest People,\" by CBS Mornings, Grammy Award-winning \u0026amp; Emmy-nominated comedian, NY Times #1 best-selling author, podcaster, director and producer \u003cb\u003eNate Bargatze\u003c\/b\u003e is selling out shows and breaking venue attendance records with more than 1.9 million tickets sold on his 2026 \u003ci\u003eBig Dumb Eyes \u003c\/i\u003eWorld Tour. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 240\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.1 x 9.1 x 6.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 06, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53575177306419,"sku":"9781538768464","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/s3xxpj-vy.myshopify.com\/products\/big-dumb-eyes-stories-from-a-simpler-mind-hardcover","provider":"The Celestial Starlit Phoenix ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
