Mike Birbiglia Tour Week Five - The Basketball Finale

Mike Birbiglia ends his "I'm in the Future Also" tour in memorable fashion in Philadelphia and Atlantic City.

Comedian Mike Birbiglia has appeared on The Late Show With David Letterman, Late Night With Conan O'Brien, The View, and Late Night With Jimmy Fallon. In 2008, Mike Birbiglia teamed up with producer Nathan Lane to present "Sleepwalk With Me," a painfully funny one-person show about first love, denial, and how the sleepwalking disorder that nearly killed him might have saved his life. The New York Times called the show "Simply perfect," and it was twice extended, earning Mike nominations for both a Drama Desk Award and an Outer Circle Critics Award for "Best Solo Performance." The Boston Globe has described Mike's stories this way: "As honest as any Richard Pryor confession and as engaging and inclusive as an old Bill Cosby record." Mike is a popular contributor to shows as diverse as "The Bob & Tom Show" and "This American Life." In 2009 Mike headlined his own Comedy Central tour, called the "I'm in The Future Also" Tour. He performed standup in more than 30 cities and universities across the country. Mike Birbiglia is also hard at work on his next comedy album and next one-hour special, and is currently working on a screenplay adaptation of "Sleepwalk With Me," as well as a collection of short stories to be published by Simon & Schuster. Mike Birbiglia is a very busy guy.

How did you go from shooting a three-pointer to half court? I think half court is a little farther away, but then again I never played basketball. I just watch it sometimes on TV. That was a heck of an effort though. Nice lefty form! Hope to see you perform in Philly sometime soon. p.s. that Hip Hop dude is one scary critter.
