Mike Birbiglia Redefines The Good Life

Comedian Mike Birbiglia (The Good Life on Netflix) opens up about navigating his father’s stroke, his daughter’s spiritual education, and how meeting the Pope shaped his artistry. Along the way, Mike explores mental‑health honesty, delusional optimism in auditions, and why he believes live storytelling is almost sacred.
