Matthew Broussard, a stand-up comedian, draws material from his mother Ann, a retired biologist. Ann embodies the classic Jewish mother, being loving and dramatic. During a video call, Broussard shared a story about a birthday card Ann sent to his now-wife, Laura, which he performed on stage. Ann humorously downplayed its humor, stating, 'I still don't think it's funny.' The card humorously expressed her acceptance of her son's independence while acknowledging Laura's role in his happiness. The joke resonated with audiences and went viral on social media.
"When I told her I was going to read it during a set, she said, 'OK, but no one is going to laugh.' The audience howled, and the clip later went viral on Instagram."
"Dear Laura, almost sent it to wrong address. Deleted old one, so no more mix-ups. My role is definitely over... Have a happy day. -Ann"
