Reversaroo! Part 1 with Me, Dave Maher

This episode is either the best or the worst introduction to this podcast. I, Dave Maher (This American Life), talk to my friends, fellow comedians, former guests and still-current fans of the show, Meaghan Strickland and Claire Favret, as they turn the tables and ask me all the questions I normally ask guests. A classic "reversaroo," of course!

The episode comes in two parts. In this one, I relay an embarrassing childhood anecdote that explains my personality and invent the "destination funeral."

This was seriously a blast. I hope you enjoy it. I hope you catch the conclusion next week, and I hope you join my Patreon to check out the extended episodes (for both parts!) at patreon.com/davemaher.
