One day a tv exec will read your blog, find that it's not "lacking," and make Vox Populi into a sitcom too! Birbiglia's Secret Public Journal is not just the name of his blog, but the frame inside which Birbiglia centers the bits in his act, which are drawn from events in his life and his analysis of them. It is also the title of his recent critically-acclaimed album and tour, I believe. I have to disagree that CBS has ever been home, at least in my memory, to anything funny at all to those under the age of 40, or at least anything funnier than your strange hyphenation in "sort of-funny." Here's hoping CBS doesn't water down Birbiglia's vision into cliche and hackiness. Don’t give up, Voice.

Also, Seinfeld live-in girlfriend? I like the idea of just called it Birbiglia, but it’s better as a verb–”I’d love to make your wedding, but I’ve gotta Birbiglia bad”.
