Busting Balls Is Love with Michael Timlin

New segment alert! Standup Michael Timlin (Shameless) is the first guest to tell me the superlative he'd get (and the one he'd want) in his eulogies. He talks about showing up for loved ones, and worrying about their wellbeing. He starts the show committing to never having kids, and he ends it with abundant, specific declarations of love for his wife. It's a complex episode with a lot of feelings!

To get the full experience, start by listening to my episode of Mike's sanity-bestowing podcast, Work Sucks, I Know! Who doesn't love a crossover event?

I think this show's worth the cost of a coffee or a meal a month, and if you subscribe for $5 or $15 at patreon.com/davemaher, you can get my full convo with Timlin, every installment of the companion podcast This Is Your Aftershow, and shoutouts in future episodes.
