Few people can claim the prolific surge in popularity that Nat, aka Nat’s What I Reckon, experienced as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Declaring a public and hilarious war on jar sauce after witnessing the bizarre panic buying that left fresh food untouched on supermarket shelves, while pre-made jars were bought in droves, Nat emerged as the Aussie hero us at home and all over the world needed.

But diehard fans will be quick to tell you, Nat has been entertaining and expressing his hilarious take on social commentary for years now, with his YouTube channel and social media pages firmly lampooning everything from preppy boat culture to tissue boxes in the back of cars - but it was his unparalleled knack for fusing profanity, genuine advice and kick ass delicious meals that set his star even further on the rise, going on to claim Dave Grohl as a fan and firmly embraced as the true champion of the people.

As if this hilarious human wasn’t generous enough with his recipes and sharing his partner Jules’s infectious laugh with the world, Nat’s also a mental health ambassador, a musician and honestly one of the nicest humans you could ever cross paths with.

With 2021 drawing to a close, Nat’s now ticked off yet another milestone, with his second book Death To Jar Sauce: Rad Recipes For Champions officially out this week - and to celebrate, he swung by the Green Room to chat about his natural career progression, positive mental health practices and Colgate beef lasagne.
