Mike Birbiglia | January 14, 2026



This week, SNL’s Sarah Sherman returns on the heels of the release of her new HBO special, “Live + In the Flesh.” Sarah and Mike discuss why Sarah goes to therapy three times a week, which SNL cast member Sarah is jealous of, and the difference between Sarah Sherman and her stage persona Sarah Squirm. Plus, the Weekend Update character that Lorne Michaels himself thought of for Sarah to play.

    Sarah, I loved your special so much. It is completely original and the only person I have seen using music equipment in their comedy is Fred Armisen but you used the special FX sounds in the most original way.

    I’m loving this media blitz Sarah has gone on. Not only do we get the special but my fav people get to interview her and bring out unique sides of her

    if you have ever dealt with people shooting up and selling sexual favors in your public restroom you are going to make that sucker impossible to remove from the ladle and take to the hardware store to copy.

    Sarah's special is so funny and absurd that I've watched it three times. Once by myself, second with my mom (69) and my daughter(18), and again by myself. She makes me laugh so hard i wanna puke. She pushes the edges of absurdity and comedy. She is already a LEGEND in my book!

    I think her chair bit would work, if the joke is about the guy who has to build the chairs, he doesn't know why they keep breaking them and turns out an amateur wrestler is commissioning these IKEA chairs by the dozen and the maker is frustrated
