Mike Birbiglia Tees Up an Awkward Performance
For most of his career, if you asked comedian, author, and director Mike Birbiglia (Don't Think Twice, Sleepwalk With Me) about his worst gig ever, he would say it was the time he attempted stand-up at a charity golf event. Eugene Mirman brings Mike into the studio to tell the story of that challenging gig, while making sure to pause the narrative to ask some probing questions and crack some jokes. It's all par for the course in this sporty episode of Hold On with Eugene Mirman!
In each episode of the Audible Comedy series Hold On, host Eugene Mirman (Bob's Burgers, The Flight of the Conchords) pauses the funny stories of comedians and performers to get the skinny behind the story. Featured and future guests include: Andy Richter, Lisa Lampanelli, Mike Birbiglia, Reggie Watts, Kumail Nanjiani, Maria Bamford, Hasan Minhaj, John Mulaney, and more! Enjoy new episodes weekly!
