Jeanne Robertson "Don't go rafting without a Baptist in the boat!"

[mickeycrazy1]

I would love to meet u! I'm a 20year old Baptist from North Carolina and I've seen many of your videos and not only do I laugh till I can't breathe but I appreciate how decent your videos are. It's very refreshing and rare to find nowadays. Keep em coming cause I'm gonna keep on laughing:-)

[Davrodeo]

Very funny video and great performance! It was hilarious! Please keep more coming when you can!

By the way, is that Rue McClanahan at 4:31?

[JeanneRobertson]

@Davrodeo No, 'fraid not.  That would be been fun! Keep laughing! Jeanne

[blessedkids1]

I first heard the Don't Go Bunjee Jumping Naked and I laughed so hard my stomach hurts.....This too is hilarious!!! This woman is a blessing.....Keep em Laughing!!!!Laughter does a soul good....

[larry2043]

That was hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[alpratt84]

Oh my Lord, this is just funny as all get out!!! Im 26 and I would deff. come see her!!!!! I showed my nanna and she nearly died laughing. Almost lost her at the tender age of 67 tonight!!! LOL

[JeanneRobertson]

@alpratt84 Oh, I'm so glad she's still with us. :) Y'all keep laughing! Jeanne

[webbwoman61]

This is so funny! I can see this happening as you're talking. I've gone canoeing several times down some of the more sleepy rivers here in Mississippi. There are loads of stories for sure!

One thing though....one time me and my friends went canoeing and absolutely no mishaps happened. Nobody got a bruise, no turn overs....That was the quietest trip home....we had nothing to talk about!

[justcuz71]

Jeanne, I just love you sense of humor. You make me laugh everytime I hear your stories. Just yesterday I was able to hear your perk trip and I think the people that were driving next to me were thinking I had lost my mind because I was the only one in the vehicle and laughing so hard I had tears running down my face. Will be ordering your CD's soon. Thank you for all the stories. Your the best.

[dabthe1st]

I wish this particular piece continued....it gets better as it goes...having heard her on xm radio comedy channel, I have heard the entire set....gotta love jeanne robertson

[JeanneRobertson]

@dabthe1st Thanks dabthelst, I know what you mean. We hated to just pull out a little segment but length is a great concern on a youtube clip. So, just chose this segment. The entire story is 24 minutes long. We may post another clip from this long story next: lb and I sleeping in tent. Not sure, just thinking. So many stories. So many punchlines. Thanks. Keep laughing

[smokydreamer]

OMG .Sooooooooooo Hilarious!

[towncar008]

One funny Lady

[mickerin64]

You are great!! I just heard of you today. How true everything is. LOL Thanks for the good, clean humor.

[tranquillitybase3]

Jeanne, Thank you for your wonderful stories and humor. I recently discovered you on Sirius radio and am buying dvds for my family.  Anytime you make it to Dallas for an open engagement, my husband and I will be there!

[dolphinsqueen]

I love this 1 as well. God has blessed you with a funny & warm sense of humor! You can take what can be a tragic thing & turn into something easy to handle, "laugh your troubles" away!!!! Thank you MS JEANNE ROBERTSON for sharing your videos & talents with the world. May God continue to Bless you daily!!

[3martijns]

Hilarious!!

[gulfgypsy]

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! For seeing the humor in everyday situations that everyone can relate to. You're genuinely funny and classy and just fantastic! When I listen to you, I can't help but smile and be happy.

[tkleinforever]

Seriously laughed soooo hard! Keep it up, you make my day!

[TexasMobile]

This was really fun.  Thank you.

[llindsay1925]

Someone sent me the 'Naked Bungee Jumping' clip, too (I live about 90 min. from Nanaimo) - loved it! Passed the clip about 'Don't go rafting without a Baptist' to my pastor, and asked him to pleeeease try to work it into one of his sermons sometime. So glad to have found Jeanne!

[thecathancegroup]

This is good stuff.

[TheJonathandinkins]

Mrs. Robertson I am not your crowds average age from what I seen on the videos I am a lot younger and I just love to hear you tell your stories on the internet, sat radio and cd. I guess I have an older soul than people my age

[4U3BIGJOHN]

Funny, Funny, Lady :)

[Mamasan41]

@4U3BIGJOHN  Rolling on the FLOOR here!!!! MERCY!

[margania5]

I declined the opportunity to accompany my husband on a trip down The Colorado. The guide briefed them on the bathroom procedures. He said if I had been there I would have said, "I do not care how much it costs, get me out of here!" Of course, I never ever would have wanted him to break my leg. Your presentation is wonderful. I laughed and laughed.

[HDHJr891]

I got satelite radio 4 christmas. I flipped through the channels and found the comedy station. Let me tell you I now have it programmed into a locked channel. Everyday on my way to work I listen to it and have a great laugh. This is such a great way to start off your day. If you have a tough day it's also great way to end the day. Sometimes I laugh so hard I'm crying. I now have my husband hooked on it. I was so thrilled to find you on u tube. I now need to go shopping for your tapes. Thanks

[luigitricia]

Funny story!

[lawndaisies]

heh heh.... this is fun

[MrButler218]

funny stuff

[yetmost]

Some one sent me an email with "Bungee Jumping in Canada" and I plum fell out laughing..tears down my cheeks, lost my breath..well you get the picture.

I am so hooked that I am now a proud owner 2 books and all of your cds.

I have yet to play the cds as I fear that I will run slap out of the road.

So I am working my way up to trying them on a long car trip I will be taking soon.

I have checked your appearances and was sadden by the fact Jacksonville, Fl. is not among them.

[JeanneRobertson]

@yetmost Oh, I spoke in Jacksonville, FL last Saturday for an event open to the public. I'm sorry you missed that one but I"m sure I'll be back that way soon. We will be announcing more shows soon. I'm thrilled you enjoy my work. Keep laughing! Jeanne

[octgirl62]

i wanted to let you know i haven't laughed this much in ages. i laughed so hard. i really enjoy your videos. I am a new fan....thanks for the laughs.

[063637981]

This woman is very funny and has great comedic timing.. We went on a rafting trip down the Colorado River and it was fun, although very scary at times. Gotta watch those huge rocks that come up on you all at once! The river was not muddy when we went, it was beautiful.

[jlperth]

this one is worth a look at

[smashinglassdesigns]

I got a clip of your's sent to me by a friend from Canada. Slowly you are gaining fans overhere in The Netherlands, Europe as well.

You are a very funny lady and not using bad language makes you even funnier.

I'll be checking regularely for you on here.

Thanks for the laughs,

[kaley3646]

lmao!!

[KayD1010]

Love it!!!! Us tall gals of a certain age learn to laugh at an early age!

[Tracey12345678901]

Oh Jeanne, you are so incredibly funny! I don't know if you attract humor the way others attract trouble. Maybe they are one and the same from another person's perspective. I am so glad to see you here on YouTube. I will always tune in to you when I am feeling down and need to smile. And to make you smile, may I just tell you that you have incredibly beautiful legs!

[LivingLDS]

Makes me laugh every time keep up the good work I love how you keep your jokes clean and not dirty unlike other popular comedians thanks for the humor.

[sophia15jonas]

Omgosh, when we were there our tour guides name was Sparky

[JeanneRobertson]

@sophia15jonas Well, if you had the same "Sparky" as we had, we both got lucky. We felt safe with Guide Sparky and the rest of his team and appreciated the fun they added to our trip.  Keep laughing! Jeanne

[elainecleo]

I always laugh so hard with your videos that my parrot joins in with me. Just who are the two people without a sense of humor that did not like this, I do feel sorry for them. lol

[randysmyrealtor]

Being raised a Baptist and now an Episcopalian, your story cracked me up! I can just see it now....that first night the Anglicans were first in line for the wine, eight days in they had to fight through the Baptists! All in good fun. Thanks for sharing your gift with us.

[JeanneRobertson]

@randysmyrealtor Thanks. And yes, my many Baptist buddies as well as the ones on the "adventure" tell me they love the story. Keep laughing! Jeanne

[rastagirl007]

Jeanne, you are just amazing...true stories about life that are funny...and clean...oh, except when you're being smacked in the face with muddy water! P.S. I am a Baptist! 

[JeanneRobertson]

@rastagirl007  And I do love my Baptist friends. Espcially the ones with us on the rafting trip. We really had a ball and .... no, I won't tell it. What happens on the river . . . Jeanne

[geena6]

This is what we need more of in the world, humour & a good laugh.

Thankyou Marcus(oldtexasmusic) for sending

Thankyou Jeanne for a good hearty laugh.

God Bless

Geena

[TheNana1937]

My daughter gave me a CD of yours and I've traveled Texas laughing at you. Baptist are truly different. Love your style and you are a lovely lady.

Keep up the good work.

[jtbgood8843]

Enjoy your talents. God blesses you and me through you.

[tjwalker]

[JeanneRobertson]

[tjwalker]

[SallyBrown44]

[B5131T]

[ellen82793]

I have friends going for a raft trip and ask them to watch this posting. We are a bunch of gay men. These guys and I laughed for hours over some of your lines ie: break a leg.. Thank you so much for being part of our laughs.

[pinesongwoman]

i love listening to you ms jeanne so much, such a lovely southern accent that reminds me of my parents and their family from bertie cty north carolina, and how you can make humor out of hardships and trials in life, course i'll not go bungee jumping or rafting anytime soon, lol....and i had a lobotomy with my left brain in 2003, feel much better now....god bless you!!!

[Ravenchild12]

That is really funny. You have an amazing sense of humor. :)

[drew9288]

Very funny!

[dlg73]

Thanks again for writing Jeanne. I know i keep repeating myself but you truly are Brilliant! Just today at work i was eating lunch in my car listening to sirius blue collar comedy channel, and they were playing your story about Jane Tucker and new york and FABulous! I was laughing so hard. You truly are an inspiration! So gifted and i know i've said already but i must be one of your biggest fans. Thank you for always uplifting my spirits, and I am so honored that you write back! Many Blessings.

[dlg73]

Dear Jeanne..Thanks again for writing back, you can bet i make sure all of my friends hear your humor! I told you i was a huge fan and that is no lie! I am so honored and flattered to have you write back. Tell Miss Jane Tucker that the magnetic bracelet has caught not one fork, the Pashmina is draping beautifully..ZIPPER and all..Ha Ha..and Left Brain was overcharged for the ring. You are truly ONE OF A KIND, and I am just so honored to tell you so! You're a JEM for the world to see...Much Love!

[JeanneRobertson]

@dlg73 The bracelet too? You're something else. Again, thanks. Keep laughing! Jeanne

[dlg73]

Jeanne thank you so much for responding.I honestly consider it an Honor because i think of you as one of the GREATEST speakers&humorist to EVER hit the stage.You have got one of your biggest fans right here in Syracuse, New York.I'm about 5 hours north of New York City, but let me tell you i was crying laughing so hard hearing your stories about not only the Pashmina, but also about the Kingston toll booth, and who can forget the "212's" at the outlet. I wish you every blessing life offers!

[JeanneRobertson]

@dlg73 Oh, my. Thank you. You sure know many of my stories.  I'm flattered. What 'til I tell Jane Tucker from NYC!!!! Please do keep listening and telling your buddies. Most of all, keep laughing! Jeanne

[dlg73]

oh Jeanne I am so happy to see your humour on here. I am such a big fan! I am 37 years old from new york, and my favorites are the bungee jump, the rafting, the grocery store, left brain carrying the bags to the hotel, and may others..but my favorite is definitely the trip finding THE CRYSTAL BLUE WATERS! You are such a brilliant speaker and gifted humorist!! The one with the Pashmina is top of my list also. I wish i could see you live someday..you uplift the heart and soul like no other can!!

[JeanneRobertson]

@dlg73 Wow! Thanks. You sure know my material. I'm thrilled you enjoy listening and laughings. Hopefully, I'll have a how your way soon. Keep laughing! Jeanne

[jettsetter69]

She is a real "hoot" as we say in Texas!

[JeanneRobertson]

@jettsetter69 Thanks. I consider "hoot" a bigggggg complilment. I have a show in Dallas on 9/17 at the Lakewood Theater. Come if you can and do tell all your "bestest" friends. Of course, in Texas, you could be w0 hours away. :) Keep laughing! Jeanne

[JeanneRobertson]

@JeanneRobertson Thanks. I consider "hoot" a bigggggg compliment! I have a show in Dallas on 9/17 at the Lakewood Theater. Come if you can and do tell all your "bestest" friends. Of course, in Texas, you could be 10 hours away. :)  Keep laughing! Jeanne

[roxieview]

Jeanne you are an inspiration to speakers, humorists and anyone who enjoys the irony of telling it like it is! I love your work, thank you for your perspective. ;->

[da5150ndn]

Good clean comedy! Loved it!

[JeanneRobertson]

@da5150ndn Thanks. Happy Fourth! Keep laughing! Jeanne

[rockin1953]

i like the stories she tells, they seem and can be real

[JeanneRobertson]

@rockin1953 Well, most of them are. But I do reserve the right to exaggerate. :) Keep laughing! Jeanne

[nancycott]

I can't believe I hadn't heard of you until tonight, when I watched your "pound cake" video and kept looking for more. You are wonderful, and this is my favorite yet! I'll look for you to show up in Charlotte.

[chibinski]

i am really delighted to learn about you, jeanne. three days ago i never knew who you were. now, your skits are running through my head. and, here i am, again --- checking your utube vids 6:30am. i absolutely adore your humor, your charming southern accent, and your sense of style. you are fascinating.

[mzhunter56]

Loved her and making me laugh

[yayagerl]

I'm only 37.. Laying in bed with my iPhone just wondering if maybe it's not too early to start wearing depends to bed for those" just in case" moments! Very Funny! I'm addicted! Keep em coming!! :-)

[tinkersbell80]

This is great!! Thanks!

[razberrybonbon]

Great stuff! Sparky is a friend of mine and would be honored to be part of your comedy since he has a dry sense of humor (pun intended). LOL

[JeanneRobertson]

@razberrybonbon @razberrybonbon Thanks. Sparky was a terrific guide and a neat guy. Actually, this clip is a little portion of the story. The whole rafting story on the DVD is about 24 minutes and ends with Sparky having the two best lines of the entire week. The two groups - speakers and the Baptist choir - had a ball and became great friends. Great to hear from you. Keep laughing! Jeanne

[franielee38]

I love her humor.

[227Jellybean]

Oh Jeanne, you are an absolute dream. My mom and I can't get enough. I haven't laughed so hard in ages. What makes it even funnier is that I'm Baptist and my momma was raised Methodist.

[honeygirl931]

"Our son graduated from Elon *SLAP*......Univerisity.

Bwahahahahaha!

[JeanneRobertson]

@honeygirl931 Go Phoenix!

[gomeljohn9]

You deserve to be much more famous than you are. I wish people listened to you instead of the likes of today's comedians.  I know I shall! :-)

[pjgal2000]

No Baptist were harmed in the making of this video, LOL!! Love it Jeanne!!

[emaffett]

Mrs. Robertson, you are my favorite!

[absherbone1]

Huzzah for the national Parks Service!

[JACKIEK821]

It is so great to be able to laugh so hard you cry over clean hunor, like the old day's! This woman is hysterical!!!

[pjgal2000]

LOVE this lady! No one is funnier!!

[almccree]

You are amazing. I have seen this clip at least three times and it gets better every time.

[karma1287]

I love your sense of humor. You keep it up!

[cman456100]

-claps- Well done, Jeanne, well done.

[sanfrancisco48]

Fabulous comedy!!!

[homeschmomof4]
