In this episode Host Jill Lyons talks with Comedian Mike Bobbitt. Mike is back in Michigan with a darkly funny new show, Tragedy + Time = Comedy. In it, Bobbitt (along with two fellow comedians) looks at the surprisingly funny moments of very serious things --like death--and how comedy can help with the process of mourning. This show is both poignant and hilarious, but is not intended for young or sensitive viewers. Think of it as some very funny, R rated grief counseling.
