My Mother Really Said This In Front Of A Live Audience | Peggy Rowe #483 | The Way I Heard It

I recently sat down with my mom in front of a live audience for something we haven’t done before on camera—a completely unscripted, in-person conversation that somehow turned into one of the most real and funniest episodes we’ve ever recorded. If you know my mother, Peggy Rowe, then you already know she can turn a trip to CVS, a lost purse at Walmart, or a game of scrabble at the retirement home into a full-blown comedy special. If you don’t know her yet, buckle up. We talk about Dirty Jobs, worth ethic, writing, family, and why the best stories in life usually happen when you’re paying attention to ordinary people. Along the way, Mom explains how she became a three-time New York Times bestselling author in her 80s and why she sees “material” everywhere she goes. Honestly, this might be my favorite episode we’ve ever recorded. It’s funny, a little chaotic, and probably the closest thing we’ve ever done to a live stage show. If you’ve ever loved your parents, worried about them, laughed with them, rolled your eyes at them, or simply needed a reminder that humor is one of the best survival skills we have, pull up a chair. Mom’s got stories, and yes…they’re all true. Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there—and especially to mine. #podcast #mom #comedy A special thanks to: Our friends at American Giant, making the softest sweatshirts made in America.
