About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Everyone has an opinion about Matt Rife, who at twenty-eight years old is both the hottest and most controversial comedian in America. Now, in his new book, Matt gives his legions of fans and haters plenty to talk about, with hilarious and dangerously revealing stories about his insane rise to stardom—from the trashy backroads of Ohio to the bedrooms of MILFs in LA to sold-out stadiums around the world.


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.

In his very first book, Matt reveals without apology everything that 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 battles 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 and a passion for standup. He started hitting comedy clubs before he could even drink, cutting his teeth in front of mostly Black 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 graduated high school. Along the way, he broke the hearts of MILFs everywhere, finally hit puberty at the ripe age of twenty-two, never met a grudge he wouldn’t keep—and never, ever backed down.

Full of Matt at his most unfiltered best opening up about his life for the very first time, this book will give Matt’s millions of fans everything they want and more—and might even get his insecure enemies to change their minds. Your Mom’s Gonna Love Me is one part memoir, one part comedy special, one part crazy first date. Just you and Matt between the covers. What could be better?

I'm surprised, I have never picked an autobiography written by anyone in their 20s or 30s . I only just discovered Matt Rife while going through a really hard time listening to this young man made me laugh when all I wanted to do was scream .
Turns out this young guy has alot of a story to Tell. And does it very well .
It's funny . uplifting and at times I had a good Cry . I'm not into the American Roasting thing . But this Guy does it well , some of it I like some I don't and I skip those bits in his shows . he has been through alot . and has risen above it all and has from I pick up a humble unapologetic mannerly guy who just wants to make people Happy . despite people trying to cancel him . well done to him. enjoyed this book very much 👌

Surprised how good this biography is from a young guy..enjoyed it very much

First and foremost, social media is full of profiles claiming to be Matt, his family and his fans, I’m aware Matt has repeatedly said he’s not on social media now and to disregard those fake profiles.
Matt, I’m confident you’ll read this review, I’m a new fan of your comedy and I think your genuine, sharp, funny, clever and one of the best comedians I’ve listened to ever and I fuggin mean that.
I’m spreading the gospel man, your comedy not religion, I loved this audiobook, up there with other comedy heroes of mines like Billy Connolly, you’re that good.
Yet to see you live but I will one day, just get yourself back to Scotland pronto.
Ten on ten for this book.

Well worth a listen

The book was honest and interesting, I actually read it whilst in Ohio on holiday where Matt originated. Loved him talking about his Grandfather and his genuine affection for him I understand that. I like that he says it has it is and doesn’t layer it with political correctness.

As Good as I thought it would be.

"The best advice I ever got was to just be myself. It sounds simple, but it's the hardest thing to do, especially in this business." 🖤

This book is more than just a comedian's memoir; it's a candid and surprisingly heartwarming journey through the life of a rising star. While many, like myself, initially discovered Matt Rife through his viral TikTok clips, this book offers a deeper understanding of the man behind the jokes. Listening to Matt narrate his own story adds an extra layer of authenticity, making the experience feel like a conversation with a friend. He doesn't shy away from the less glamorous aspects of his past, offering genuine insights into his struggles and the relentless hard work that fueled his ascent.

I love how he talks about his relationship with his grandfather and buying his mum a house. These anecdotes are woven throughout the narrative, providing touching moments of warmth and humor that perfectly balance the other tales of his comedy career. It's clear that family plays a significant role in Matt's life, and these stories add a genuine emotional core to the book. Matt's authenticity shines through in every page, making his story a truly enjoyable and surprisingly moving read.

Whether you're a long-time fan or just curious about the man behind the viral sensation, this book is definitely worth a listen.
