I'm producing your show, which is, which I love is a show called Just For Us.

And I'm always perplexed about with a movie or show is how do you explain it to people without giving away what it is.

So with Sleepwalk with me, it's like, well, how do I explain that this movie or show is not going to land in me sleepwalking through a window?

I mean, that's sort of baked into the title and it's sort of whatever.

And Just For Us is like, do you mind if I try and explain it back to you?

Please, I would be like really actually thrilled about that.

So what I tell people when I pitch it to them is like, you got to see this guy Alex Edelman, he wrote this show about this real life experience where

he's a Jewish person and he was accidentally invited online to sort of a white supremacist social gathering and being the comedian he is and sort of curious of what that life experience would be.

He went and that's all I'm going to tell you. It's hilarious. It's got a thousand jokes. It's heartwarming. It's sad. It's all of the emotions and I won't tell you anymore.

I mean, that's a really good description. It also raises some questions that people were like, well, he was invited and he was, yes, people are like, dear Alex Edelman.

Everybody, it's Mike Breglia. We're back. I'm going to do episode of Working It Out.

That was the voice of Alex Edelman, comedian, writer, performer, solo show artist. We're talking about his new show, which is called Just For Us.

I am presenting it myself at the Cherry Lane Theatre in New York City, off Broadway in the month of December. It's the exact same place where I produced Jacqueline Novak's show about 18 months ago, Get On Your Knees, which is also fantastic.

You can listen to my episode of the podcast with her. But Alex is great. We have a great chat today. You should definitely get tickets to see his show.

Also, I should mention I'm going to be in Denver, Colorado, a few tickets left. Berkeley, California. I'm at Berkeley Repertory Theatre with the old man in the pool show for three weeks in January. That theater is incredible.

So, Get Tickets for That. Also Seattle. And if it might not be announced yet, but Portland is coming soon. Charlotte's coming soon. There's a handful of exciting ones. I don't even know what I'm allowed to say.

Go to Burbix.com site for the mailing list. That's when you'll find out when you're supposed to find out as opposed to me just riffing on here with half-truths about my own tour.

But Alex Edelman is great. This show just for us is phenomenal. It was nominated for Best Show in Melbourne, Australia at the festival. Best Show in Edinburgh is nominated for one of the Harold Angel Award.

He's just a fascinating comedian, very one of a kind. And we have a great conversation. And we begin with something else we have in common today. Enjoy my chat with Alex Edelman.

So, your dad's a doctor. My dad's a doctor. Are you trying to heal people with your comedy?

No. I'm trying to heal one guy and it's not going well. It's going so badly. You wouldn't believe. This guy sucks. He's miserable.

He's in his kitchen in front of a color coat of bookshelf doing his best. Do people ever ask you are your parents okay with what you do?
