In Jeanne's latest video Fabulously Funny you'll find out what happens when Auburn gets a second chance, how Norma Rose became a creative salesperson, and the triumphs (but mostly trials) of Left Brain learning sign language.
Humorist Jeanne Robertson says that the most often asked question at this point in her
50+ year career is if she writes her own material. “Oh noooo,” she usually replies in her
deeply Southern accent. “It’s easier to just watch people and wait for the fabulously
funny stories to happen.”
You’ll hear the latest stories about the regular cast of characters you’ve met
on Jeanne’s first seven CDs/DVDs. Oh, yes, that includes her husband Jerry, a.k.a. “Left
Brain.” You’ll also meet new friends you will enjoy getting to know.
Produced by Elon University faculty, staff and students at the Historic Paramount
Theater in Burlington, NC. Special thanks to those who Jeanne knows personally and
those she has met in her travels who help her illustrate that if we keep our eyes and
ears open, we’ll find “fabulously funny” people and stories!
Jeanne Robertson looks for humor and finds it. Best of all, she likes to share it!

“Jeanne, you’re flat-out funny.” That’s what an audience member proclaimed after hearing humorist Jeanne Robertson at one of her numerous speeches each year. And “flat-out funny” she is. Now, she delivers her special brand of flat-out funny humor to an enthusiastic audience at the historic Paramount Theater in Burlington, NC.
Jeanne has won every top honor in professional speaking, a career that evolved from giving more than 500 speeches during her year as Miss North Carolina, an obscenely long time ago. She’s been making people laugh since then. On this fifth video, she shares more stories from living and traveling with her husband Jerry, a.k.a. “LB” for “Left Brain” to running her large speaking business out of a tiny speaking office with her assistant Toni. But while the audience is holding their sides from laughter, Jeanne slips in some important reminders about accepting things we can’t change about the people around us, looking for humor in everyday experiences and finding humor in stressful situations.
Humorist Jeanne Robertson looks for humor every day . . . just for fun! You might think that she does so in order to have plenty of hilarious material for her speeches and you would be correct, to a degree. But the truth is, after forty-five years of giving humorous speeches, looking for humor has become a way of life for this award-winning professional speaker.
On this program . . . Just for Fun! . . . Jeanne shares more humorous happenings she has seen when looking at herself, everyday situations and of course, her family. You’ll meet new folks - the weekend visitors from Ohio, the Mississippi and Alabama “Branches” of her family, thousands of women in a sea of purple and red, and people who do and do not speak southern. The regular cast of characters reappear, i.e., “Queen of the Tickets” Toni, Jane Tucker (from NYC!), “bestest” friend Norma Rose, grandsons Ryder and Gray and of course, husband Jerry, a.k.a. “Left Brain.”
Recorded by Elon University Television before a fun-loving crowd at the Paramount Theater in Burlington, NC. Special thanks to those Jeanne knows personally and those she met in her travels who appear in her stories . . . just for fun!

"Not Just for Laughs" Jeanne does it again! Another presentation that keeps the audience holding their sides and wiping tears of laughter from their eyes while she slips in some pretty important stuff. Filmed at Elon College in NC for broadcast on the North Carolina Center for Public Broadcasting. Hilarious beyond words!
Here She Is - Produced by Kentucky Educational Television before an enthusiastic audience at Renfro Valley, Kentucky. Jeanne rolls 'em in the aisles with favorite stories from her books and audio cassettes.
"Rocking Humor" 1 hr 50+ minutes of fun!
Humorist Jeanne Robertson doesn’t sing. She tried it in the Miss “Ahmorica” Pageant decades ago, but they listed it as comedy. (She was singing the best she could.) She doesn’t tout playing a musical instrument either because to many, knowing only four chords on a ukulele and one original song barely qualifies. But once Jeanne walks out on stage in packed theaters, she quickly has her audiences roaring with laughter. That’s because with her hilarious, original stories for the whole family . . . Jeanne Rocks Humor!
On this 9th video, you’ll hear the latest stories about Jeanne’s regular Cast of Characters
you met on her first eight programs: husband Jerry, a.k.a. “Left Brain,” Toni “Queen of the
Tickets,” “Bestest” friend Norma Rose, Jane Tucker (from NYC!) and son Beaver to name a
few. You’ll also love meeting new folks who enjoy life and love to laugh.
Produced by Elon University before a fun-loving crowd at the Historic Paramount Theater in
Burlington, NC. Special thanks to those Jeanne knows personally and those she’s met along
the way who appear in her stories to assist her in . . . Rocking Humor!
