Eat Mike Birbiglia’s Oatmeal Song featuring the Mates of State!
Hey there friends,
Thanks to everyone for coming out to my fall tour! According to my tour poster, there’s only one date left in Atlantic City on Saturday, December 12th, pick a few up before they’re all gone.
Remember that time I said I was driving and a song came on the radio and it started out all nice, and it was about oatmeal, but then it turned out I was tricked into listening to Christian rock? And I was like, “Hey, what about the oatmeal?”
Well, on Thursday, November 5th, at my show at Town Hall in New York City, I realized that if I wanted an oatmeal song, I’d have to write it myself. So with the help of my friends The Mates of State, I did. Check it out.
I hope you enjoy. Send it to friends. Punch your enemies.
Have a great Thanksgiving!
love-
mike b
PS. Joe Bags is putting together some Black Friday online store specials this week, or, as he calls them, “doorbusters.” I don’t do Christmas shopping 4 weeks early, but apparently, America does.

Mike,
You really need to try some creamy peanut butter in your oatmeal. There is nothing like it.

My favorite part is the chorus. It just says so much. About oatmeal. And a song.

I had problems reading this with my Iphone, why is that?

So happy to digest such a insightful article that does not depend on lame antics to get the idea covered. Thanks for an entertaining read.

Nice work. I might have to give peanut butter in oatmeal a try, like the first poster says.
