Mike Birbiglia's Working It Out

71. Alex Edelman Returns: The 25 Word Pitch

<p>Mike welcomes back Alex Edelman. Since his last appearance on the podcast, Alex has opened his solo show “Just For Us,” received rave reviews, appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and has been nominated for an outer critics circle award. He just announced a 3rd extension of his show at the Greenwich House Theater in New York City beginning June 13. The two friends discuss how two pitch your own work in 25 words as well as as horrible nicknames, accidentally reading other people’s texts, and how to finance a burrito. Plus, Mike is concerned his daughter might be turning into an insult comic or worse, a ventriloquist.<br/><br/>Please consider donating to <a href="https://www.tikvaodessa.org/support/" target="_blank">Tikvah Children's Home</a></p>
