Adam Sandler
and
Kevin James
. More recently, Nick has performed in movies such as That’s My Boy, Blades of Glory, 30 Minutes or Less, and
Bucky Larson
: Born to Be a Star, which he wrote, acted and produced. His first CD/DVD, Party on Comedy Central Records (produced by Happy Madison), went Platinum, which he followed up in 2010 with his first one-hour, stand-up special on Comedy Central, Seriously, Who Farted?
In addition to his career in film and in the world of stand-up comedy, Nick continues to have a prolific career in television. His Comedy Central sketch show
