Since getting his start in the late 2000s cracking jokes on Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Nate Bargatze has conquered the comedy world. Now he's ready to pass the mic.

The boisterous, vaudeville-trained Caesar and the petite, fey Coca specialized in antic comedy that often careened ... spectaculars called "Max Liebman Presents." He died in 1981 at age 78.
