In “The Good Life,” a stand-up comedian reflects on the topics of parents and pancakes (specifically one pancake) which can be streamed on Netflix starting May 26th. This solo performance finds Birbiglia sharing intimate details about his father’s recent stroke and how it influenced his own perspective on parenting.
Birbiglia also discusses his personal health and its impact on his morning meals. “A couple of months back, Jenny prepared pancakes for me,” he notes. “Since she’s well-aware of my health status, she knows the perfect portion size for my pancakes. It’s all about the pancakes.
Starting from October, Birbiglia embarked on a tour for “The Good Life,” presenting it six times at New York’s Beacon Theatre. He created this production following the airing of his Emmy-nominated 2023 special “The Old Man and the Pool,” which was also available to stream on Netflix.
