Mike Birbiglia
The Guy Who Sleepwalks Through Life, Awake
I tell stories about my life so you don’t have to.
I’m from Massachusetts, which explains a lot. I tell stories on stage, usually about things that went wrong—my body betraying me in my sleep, trying to be a husband, becoming a dad, and how terrifying that is. People laugh, but it’s not really comedy. It’s just me trying to figure out how I got here.
What I'm Into: notebooks filled with awkward details, diner coffee, sleep disorders, telling stories without punchlines, fatherhood
