Emmys Host Nate Bargatze's $100k Donation Plan & Polite Comedy Style

Emmys Hosting and Donation Plan

• 🎤 First-time Emmys host Nate Bargatze plans to donate $100,000 to the Boys and Girls Club of America during the event.
• 💰 The donation amount is contingent on Emmy winners' acceptance speeches: it decreases by $1,000 for every second over the allotted 45 seconds.
