Both Kimmel and Birbiglia have daughters. While Kimmel’s daughter is older, Birbiglia revealed that it took him a little while to have children. He joked that “my boys don’t swim, which isn’t surprising since I don’t swim, or I swim but in circles and I’m always ordering hot dogs on the side of the pool.”
