Mike Birbiglia's Working It Out

108. Nimesh Patel: Comedy is Cancer Plus Time

<p>Comedian Nimesh Patel joins Mike this week for a joke-filled conversation about how to find your comedic voice, how to turn your saddest stories into standup, and whether or not Buddhism and comedy can peacefully co-exist. Plus, Nimesh goes deep on the infamous time he was yanked off stage at Columbia University for making what he didn’t think was a very controversial joke. <br/><br/>Please consider donating to <a href="https://www.saaforchange.org" target="_blank">South Asian Americans for Change</a></p>

Comedian Mike Birbiglia welcomes a different comedian or creator each week and together they work out original, untested material. And, occasionally, uncomfortable topics. Join them as they work it out.
