Nate Bargatze on ‘Saturday Night Live’

Bargatze’s Oct. 5 appearance on “Saturday Night Live” will be his second time hosting the show.

He previously hosted on Oct. 28, 2023, when he was promoting his “Be Funny Tour.”

That tour is ongoing, according to Variety.

During Bargatze’s “Saturday Night Live” opening monologue last year, he made fun of himself, as he often does, and joked about getting addicted to Afrin nasal spray.

“If you don’t know what (Afrin) is, I would honestly tell you not to get involved,” Bargatze joked, as the Deseret News previously reported.
