Chris Distefano | Crowd Work With The Mob | Mike Birbiglia's Working It Out

This week Mike welcomes Comedy Cellar friend and comedy star Chris Distefano. Chris shares important lessons in failure: how a bad set got him booked on Letterman, and the advice his wife gave him about not listening to studio executives. Mike and Chris also dissect Chris’s famous 9/11 story, and why Chris’ “worst gig” story involves an actual knife at his throat.
