If you’ve ever watched the Comedy Central series Nathan For You, you’ll know that Nathan Fielder is not your average comedian. His awkward demeanor, deadpan delivery, and unorthodox business advice make for a unique brand of humor that consistently leaves audiences in stitches. However, there’s more to Nathan Fielder than just his comedic chops.

Born in Vancouver, British Columbia, Nathan Fielder started his career in comedy in Toronto, where he met fellow comedian and future co-star of Nathan For You, Jon Dore. Fielder’s big break came when he was hired as a writer on the Canadian sitcom This Hour Has 22 Minutes. From there, he landed a job as a consultant on the Comedy Central series Important Things with Demetri Martin.

But it wasn’t until Nathan For You premiered in 2013 that Fielder became a household name. The series follows Fielder as he helps struggling small businesses by coming up with elaborate and often ridiculous marketing schemes. In one episode, he helps a struggling frozen yogurt shop by creating a viral video in which a pig rescues a baby goat from drowning. In another episode, he helps a struggling electronics store by creating a rebate program that requires customers to climb to the top of a mountain to claim their refund.

But while the antics on the show are undeniably hilarious, what sets Nathan For You apart is the underlying commentary on the nature of capitalism and the American Dream. In an interview with The New Yorker, Fielder said that the show is “more about the psychology of small-business owners than it is about the crazy things we do.”

Indeed, throughout the series, Fielder’s interactions with the business owners often reveal their desperation to succeed in a system that seems rigged against them. By showing the absurd lengths they’ll go to in order to make a sale, Nathan For You becomes a commentary on the larger cultural obsession with success at all costs.

But what truly sets Nathan Fielder apart is his willingness to take risks and push boundaries in pursuit of his comedy. In one memorable prank, he created a Starbucks parody called “Dumb Starbucks” that drew national attention and eventually led to a legal battle with the coffee giant.

And in 2020, Fielder once again made headlines when he released a “private investigator” service through the website gasdigitalnetwork.com. Though the service was technically legal, it sparked controversy and criticism for its potential invasion of privacy.

So what’s next for Nathan Fielder? Only time will tell. But one thing’s for sure: with his unique brand of comedy and fearless approach to pushing boundaries, he’ll continue to be a force to be reckoned with in the entertainment industry.
