Mike Birbiglia: Thank God for Jokes

I only knew his post-2020 material before watching this and I thought his earlier material would be similar. This was not the case though. His later stuff is a lot better.

I thought the audience interactions were horrible. Every single one of them. The first one with the group of people who were late was clearly staged. They won't let you in when you're late during a recording of a Netflix special.

But the worst part was when he was standing next to the guy with the cop story. You could really tell that he was angry at the guy, which was kind of unprofessional. The scene was also way too long and you could tell even the audience was tired of it. One could really feel the audience cringe during that scene. Not sure why it was included. I cringed so hard during that scene I had to turn it off.
