I watched Alex's special the night it came out, & re-watched it again the next night, then last I watched 'The Old Man and the Pool' again (b/c wanted my neighbor to become a Mike Birbiglia fan so convinced her to watch it by agreeing to watch it w/her), so watching this video of you two together mixing humor with tenderness & grief, & w/appreciation for your 'chosen field,' along w/intermittently 'roasting' one another was such great fun, And also thought-provoking. Thanks very much❣

This will be an odd suggestion, but Hank Green of the vlogbrothers and Crash Course fame on YouTube recently filmed a whole comedy routine he developed over the time he had cancer and it should be airing somewhere soon It would be amazing if you had him on the show to talk about how he went about learning standup as he really went through the process (but like a speed run version) starting at local open mic nights in his hometown

Just for Us is BRILLIANT. Best thing I've seen in a very long time.
-
I love when Mike has guests on where you can tell they’re genuinely good friends. These are the best episodes.
-
I love you guys!! My truth and vulnerable parts fuel my standup. I am a dyslexic, Jewish, ER doctor with ADHD and scoliosis. Zetz😁Empathy is everything.
-
Great show, the first part was very touching
-
Omg 😂 poor Bert. It requires some holding still lmao😅 Also thank you for the greif talk. I can relate so closely to those feelings and how i handle them. I needed to hear this today fpr the tears and the laughter. Thank you guys ❤
-
Clearly some edits around Alex's mention of Farrakhan. Release the full clip, what did he say!?!
-
'You're gesticulating..." I've also got an issue with doing this too much.
-
Mike needs to lay down and rest his back after that one.
-
It's so weird to be like, "well, the two choices are - being made fun of behind your back (out of hate), or to your face, which means love!" Like, or neither? Maybe they're both bad, and 'expressing love' by Actually expressing love (aka, Not insulting someone) would be healthier?
-
Have you looked at Alex's fingers during this interview?
-
Great episode but Mike either needs to stop mumbling and then screaming in laughter (or even screaming!) or the producer needs the work on the levels. I had to change the volume 10x.
