Today, we’re re-airing one of Blakeney Schick’s favorite episodes:
an interview with her former yoga student, comedian and writer,
Mike Birbiglia. Aging, parenting by mortality and dying alone or
kinless: these are just some of the uplifting topics Kara and
Nayeema tackle before the interview. When we originally
published this episode, Mike was deep in his latest Broadway show,
“The Old Man and the Pool.” (The show completed its Broadway run in
January, and will open for a limited run in London next month.) In
it, Birbiglia doesn’t shy away from such heavy topics either.
Birbiglia and Kara discuss mortality, parenthood, their last words
and finding comedy in all of life — even the sad bits.
