Ireland-born, Chicago-forged, world touring Michael Rice is one of the best comedians I know. He talks to me about maybe becoming a tree when he dies, how meditation makes you annoying at parties, and the under-16 hurling championship that was the greatest moment of his life so far.

Check out the extended episode at patreon.com/davemaher with bonus intro banter about Mike's past year plus his "Paint Your Hell" segment.
