Matt Roush says...
Emmy-nominated for his most recent Netflix special, The Old Man & the Pool, the master of observational comedy monologues returns with what he says is his most personal show to date. In The Good Life, Birbiglia reflects on his dad’s recent stroke and how it led him to reassess his own fatherhood. He explains his methods: “I try to probe into what’s most painful in order to figure out what’s most funny.”
