This was my second special by Mike I had seen and wow is this possibly his magnum opus. I mean he's so vulnerable AND hilarious.
Funny as always. Such a great voice and delivery. Just naturally funny.
Mike always delivers quality specials. Nothing groundbreaking or challenging, but his comedy is comforting.
Polished and poingent, a one-man show for fans of thoughtful but irreverent standup. You'll crack up.
I really enjoy Mike Birbiglia’s comedy style. It’s more conversational and story based vs punchline. Long build up but worth it, imo
I love Mike’s silly takes on the day-to-day—worth watching for fans of observational. The underlying meta ideas here have stuck with me, too
One of the best stand-up comedians out there right now. He is a master story-teller. Funny and poignant.
So funny. His form of humor gets you in all your feels
A great reflection on the importance of comedy. Not as strong as some of his other work, but great nonetheless.
Any other comic & you'd assume as a religious person you'd be the butt of his jokes, not with Mike. Funny without ever being offensive
