Eugene Mirman reveals a series of mild grievances with warmth and wonder in his new comedy special, Here Comes The Whimsy. He shares anecdotes from fatherhood, insights from travel, and tackles dress-code trauma and rental car disputes with a playful spirit that is both sharp and silly. He continues his tradition of offering untraditional ways to purchase the special, including packages that come with politically confusing magnetic bumper stickers, a small framed and autographed piece of Japanese siding from his house, a custom obituary, and a commemorative plate with a royal title. The New York Times writes, “Mirman’s stand-up is infused with a warm and cheerful sense of the ridiculous,” while Mike Birbiglia once called Eugene the “Andy Warhol of comedy.” Eugene is confident that this is the last comedy special you’ll watch (if you take poison right after).

Have you noticed in life that only strong and smart people can laugh at themselves. This means there is hope - we will survive. In the last century, the idols of our fatherland were poets. There were questions of honor, and in our time: sorcerers, psychics, hypnotists and we, satirists. God willing, this time will end someday in Rus', the times of poets will come again. The only thing that’s a pity is that we won’t live to see this time with you. One thing is required of us: thinking. The rest must be completed by our descendants. Well, since we will not live to see this time, remember - a song helps us build and live, and humor helps us survive. If you laugh like you do today, you can live a long, long time. In our country there is enough stupidity for a long, joyful, wonderful life. Well, that's all for you AAAAAA.
