Mike Birbiglia’s extended interview on this week’s Daily Show not only shows some fascinating aspects surrounding his new movie, Don’t Think Twice, including making up a joke about Trump running for president before Trump announced he was running (The Simpsons did awhile ago, but the fact that Trump ran after anyone on TV and in movies joked about it is still pretty crazy) and the comparison of violent PG-13 movies versus the inexplicable R-rating that his movie got, but shows why you should follow anything Birbiglia is doing.

Watch it here.
