"Mom? Those kids over there said they don't like me."

"How is that for you?"

"I guess I'm disappointed."

"I'm sorry."

"But you know what? They don't even know me, I mean for real know me."

"Their loss, right?"

"Mom? It really is."

--------------------------------------------

So you guys? The show is this weekend. Have I mentioned lately just how amazing Listen To Your Mother Los Angeles is going to be? Because it is. The writers and their stories are funny and moving and compelling and inspiring and other great adjectives that end in "ing." If you are in Southern California, I hope you will join us on Sunday at 3:00pm. Buy tickets here.

If you're in Austin, Madison, Spokane or Northwest Indiana there are other phenomenal Listen To Your Mother shows coming up soon. Get on it. Bring your mom.

  3. I love how you ask him things like, "How is that for you?" rather than jumping in with a statement or advice. What an opportunity for him to think through these things and be freely honest with you, too.

    And Bob, you are an inspiration.
