Your Mom's Gonna Love Me

By: Matt Rife

Narrated by: Matt Rife

One part memoir, one part comedy special, one part crazy first date. Just you and Matt between the covers. What could be better?

Matt Rife is well aware that he’s both the most loved and the most controversial comic in America today. And honestly, he thinks that’s your problem.

Matt reveals (without apology, of course) what led him to becoming comedy’s biggest lightning rod before he reached thirty, in a story full of bold and hysterical takes on everything from Justin Bieber tramp stamps and rap battles with ex-cons to Matt’s struggles with depression and his many brushes with failure before finally hitting it big.

Born in trashy backwoods Ohio, Matt was saved by his foul-mouthed but loving grandpa Steve, who fostered his passion for standup. He started hitting comedy clubs before he could even drink, cutting his teeth in front of crowds who dared him to succeed. Matt honed a brand of razor-sharp, brutally honest standup that took no prisoners—and took him to the most famous stages of Atlanta and LA before he finished high school. Along the way, he broke the hearts of MILFs everywhere, finally hit puberty at the ripe age of twenty-two, and never, ever backed down.

Full of Matt opening up, at his unfiltered best, about his life for the very first time, this book will give his millions of fans everything they want and more—and might even get his insecure enemies to change their minds.

Best Book Ever

If you love Matt Rife you’re going to love this book.
He writes about his life to stardom all the way from the beginning since he was young. His writing is so genuine and he definitely adds some of his humor that we all love. I don’t read much but I sure do love this book! 10/10 would read again!

Authenticity

Okay, so I got this book because I was seeking and expecting more of the hilarious Matt Rife and his transparent, intelligent wit. This book is not funny (unless you are one of the 5 people who haven’t heard the few jokes he retells). Unexpectedly, this autobiographical narrative shares the same origin as his humor. It’s raw and genuine, tender and unassuming, and leaves you rooting for his future and proud of his tenacity and determination. He deserves every bit of the success I hope he’s enjoying. It’s a book I would encourage my kids to listen to when they’re a little older and life isn’t unfolding in the way they hoped or expected. If you’ve ever wondered why and how he can get away with his fair but irreverent commentary on life, this book will clear that up. Go Matt

My new favorite autobiography

If you like his stand up comedy, you'll love the book! It's a great book about Matt growing up and becoming the famous guy he is now, with happy and sad moments that he shares. Makes me love Matt Rife even more!

Funny human being

Good story telling. Glad he let us in to get to know him even if we don't "know" him. I had only seen 1 of his specials before listening but will be looking them all up now. Keep up the great work Matt and hold on to those future dreams. You & Grandpa Steve got this.

Loved It

Matt Rife is the comedian our world needs right now. He’s reopening the door for people to see that it’s ok to laugh. It’s ok to not take yourself too seriously. His crowd work, like his book, shows that he is able to find light in any dark area.
