Birbiglia also talks about his own health and how it might affect his breakfasts. "A few months ago, Jenny made me pancakes," he says. "She knows my health inside out, so she knows the right amount of pancakes to eat. Pancakes!"
Birbiglia began touring "The Good Life" in October, performing it six times at New York's Beacon Theatre. He developed the show after the premiere of his 2023 Emmy-nominated special, "The Old Man and the Pool," which also aired on Netflix.

"At certain points during the tour, I thought on stage, 'Wow! Am I really going to tell this story?' But that's the idea behind these shows. I try to dig into the most painful things to uncover the funniest things," he added.
"The Good Life" is directed by Seth Barrish and designed by Beowulf Boritt and Aaron Copp. Birbiglia, John Skidmore, and Joe Birbiglia are executive producers, and Best Kept Secret is the producer.
Birbiglia is also known for his specials "The New One" and "My Girlfriend's Boyfriend," among others. He also wrote, directed, and starred in the 2016 independent film "Don't Think Twice" and hosts the podcast "Working It Out."
