What's your favorite Mike Birbiglia comedy special?
Mike Birbiglia is a comic that stands apart. Sometimes crass, always thoughtful and sweet, he’s comedy’s #1 Wife Guy, and I’m happy to report it’s not just because he’s constantly jabbing at Jenny, his wife, in his specials. As a matter of fact, she’s a starring character in his best work. Mike’s a bit of a favorite of mine because he feels like a storyteller first and a comic second, though that isn’t to say he’s not as funny as he is good at spinning a yarn.
This one I beat myself up for not seeing live, because I was actually a fan of Birbiglia’s when it was performing just a train ride away.marks a return to the more intimate storytelling of Mike’s best work and brings the focus back to his relationship with his wife. Specifically, it hones in on their road to becoming parents. But first, the special starts with a couch. This couch becomes a bit of a touchstone and a multifaceted one too.
