Bill Burr is currently experiencing an ascent that is rare in comedy. The hard working comic has been doing stand up for decades, but is now reaching comedic Nirvana, being one of only 10 comedians to ever sell out Madison Square Garden.

An incredibly funny man, he's also garnered a loyal following via his podcast, The Monday Morning Podcast - which features just him and a microphone and is rather brilliant.

Now Bill has created his own animated series, F is for Family, which premieres on Netflix December 18th. Featuring the voice of Burr, Justin Long, Laura Dern, David Koechner and Sam Rockwell, it's a 70's set show based around the trials and tribulations of a dysfunctional, wonderfully relatable working class American family.

Burr talks to Mike about putting the show together, how Dublin had the best heckles he's ever had in his career and going on the piss with Will Ferrell and Paul Rudd while they were here.

 iTunes etc should be live ASAP.
