  • -Mike Birbiglia, I am so happy that you are here.

  • Thank you so much for coming back to

  • "The Tonight Show: At Home Edition."

  • -Here we are. Yeah, this is it.

  • -This is it.

  • I mean, Mike, we were -- How was the Father's Day, by the way?

  • Did you have a good one? -It was good.

  • My Father's Day and my birthday melded together.

  • My birthday was Saturday. Father's Day is Sunday.

  • -Happy belated, buddy.

  • -A lot of pizza, a lot of cake.

  • My whole new show is about aging and middle age,

  • and so it was momentous.

  • I'm 42, which is exactly halfway through your life.

  • Not technically.

  • Not everyone dies at 84, but no one is ever like,

  • "80 through 100 -- those are the years.

  • They're like, "I was 83.

  • I reached for a grape and I never walked again."

  • You hear that sometimes.

  • -Oh, my God.

  • -But, you know, it's -- How old are you now?

  • -45. -45.

  • So we're like -- "Over the hill" is the term.

  • And I never understood that term until I got on the hill.

  • And then I'm looking around and I'm like,

  • "Oh, there's natural causes.

  • They're not close, but they're coming."

  • -Hand me those binoculars.

  • Oh, no.

  • There's so many things on this side of the hill I don't like.

  • Can we go back down the hill? Oh, gosh!

  • -The other side of the hill, by the way, not as fun.

  • -No. Not at all.

  • You think --

  • -That front part is fun. You're climbing.

  • You're learning how to climb.

  • -Sledding, skiing, those -- That's fun.

  • Anything like that.

  • Walking down the hill for your life is not --

  • -It's like -- Well, it's like Trump coming off the plane.

  • It's like...

  • That's the hill. That's coming down the hill.

  • -Hey, can I see the cover of the book?

  • I want to see -- -Oh, yeah!

  • It came out this week. -Dude!

  • -"The New One." -Look at this.

  • Wait. Can I see the artwork?

  • -So, the artwork is -- Wendy MacNaughton painted it,

  • co-designed by Crystal Sacca.

  • It's an Earth of toys.

  • -Ah, that is so -- -Isn't that beautiful?

  • -Yeah, it's fantastic. -So, it's co-written by my wife.

  • It's by J. Hope Stein, my wife, Jen.

  • And I will say this, 'cause it's sort of a he-said, she-said

  • about us having a child together, and --

  • Or it's a -- But she writes poems,

  • so it's a he-said, she-poems.

  • He-said, she-poetry.

  • -Oh, my gosh. Was it fun working with her?

  • -It was awesome.

  • I mean, I have to say, like, Jen is so talented,

  • and it's like, it -- I'd have --

  • In my Word document, when I was writing, like,

  • I'd have these beautiful poems, like, at the end of a chapter

  • or beginning of a chapter, and I would be like,

  • "I have to make it as good as that."

  • You know, and it sort of, like, forced me to, like,

  • raise my game.

  • -Oh, really? That's fun. -You know what I mean?

  • Like, I felt like you probably had it over the years

  • at "SNL" when you're playing with different actors

  • in the cast and you're like, "Oh, I got to bring

  • my game for this person 'cause they're so good."

  • I bet people felt that way about you, too.

  • -But I know what you're saying, though.

  • But, I mean, I had a great cast when I first walked in.

  • It was, you know, Will Ferrell and Molly Shannon

  • and Ana Gasteyer and Cheri Oteri.

  • -And Parnell. -Chris Kattan. Parnell.

  • -Yeah, yeah. Yeah.

  • -Dude, everybody was good,

  • and I was just like -- I was out of my league.

  • -But, yeah, that's how it felt.

  • Jen was my Will Ferrell is what I'm getting at.

  • I feel like we could be brothers.

  • Like, I'm looking at you next to me

  • and I'm like, "Brothers in a movie."

  • "Taxi 2," baby.

  • -Oh, dude! Let's do this right now.

  • I wish had a pen. Come on! We could do this.

  • We could play brothers. I could see us.

  • -I think so.

  • -You have "The New One." -Yes.

  • -I talked to you on our show when it was a Broadway show.

  • -That's right. That's right.

  • -So, then it became a Netflix special.

  • -Yes.

  • -And now it's going to be -- knock on wood --

  • a best-selling book.

  • -It's going to be -- And it's going to be

  • a breakfast cereal and it's going to be the home game.

  • -It should be a home game.

  • You know what it should be, really, though?

  • You should make an app. I would make an app.

  • -Well, we're going to do the app.

  • The... [ Laughs ]

  • I was going to read you something from the book,

  • because I thought it was relevant to the two of us.

  • I think we have been married the same amount of time.

  • I'm 13 years in July.

  • -Yeah, I'm 12 years. Yeah, I'm going to be 13, yeah.

  • -This is from -- This is my piece of advice

  • for married couples or newly married couples.

  • This is the only piece of advice I have,

  • which is, I think that there's a --

  • In all marriages, no matter how perfect

  • you think your marriage is, I think there is an undercurrent

  • of tension at all times because you have two people

  • experiencing often the same events at the same time

  • and then have two completely different memories

  • of the same event.

  • So, my best example of this is --

  • a few years ago, we were in Chicago, where we love to be.

  • We love to visit.

  • And we were staying at this hotel.

  • And we're coming down the elevator.

  • And we'd stayed there before. We love this hotel.

  • And I said -- I go, "Oh, I just remembered

  • there's this café in the hotel that you loved

  • the last time we were here."

  • And Jen said, "Who did?"

  • And I thought, "Oh, no,"

  • because the subtext of "Who did?" was,

  • "A," that wasn't me,

  • "B," that must have been another woman you were dating,

  • "C," I'm not happy about this.

  • And we get to the lobby, the doors open, and she goes,

  • "Oh, my God!

  • I love this café!"

  • And I go, "I almost died in the elevator from a heart attack,

  • and you just casually remembered that I'm right?"

  • And so now whenever we have a shared memory

  • that departs from one another, one of us says --

  • And this is advice for everybody.

  • You can always use this. One of us says, "Who did?"

  • And it's our way of saying,

  • "We're both probably wrong."

  • -Oh, "Who did?" is good then. I like "Who did?"

  • -Who did?!

-Mike Birbiglia, I am so happy that you are here.
