Comedian Mike Birbiglia discusses his new book The New One: Painfully True Stories from a Reluctant Dad including the seven reasons he originally never wanted to be a parent, the lies couples tell themselves when they decide to have a baby, and the scourge of parents who try to push babies on other people.  He opens up about he and his wife's initial troubles conceiving, reveals that President Barack Obama was the first person to learn that they were pregnant, and shares some pretty good parenting advice that they got from the leader of the free world.  He talks about the moment when he finally felt like a member of his own family again, the pleasure of seeing the world through his daughter’s eyes, and whether this reluctant father might be ready to give Oona a baby brother or sister.  Plus sugar-fries, snot suckers, magic sleep suits, and more!
