When the late, great comedian Jeanne Robertson went on her first date with Left Brain, she got a quick glimpse into how his mind worked. And hearing her recount the dinner conversation with her future husband, there’s no question as to why Jeanne began affectionately calling him Left Brain!
The video starts out with Jeanne sitting on a stage in front of a captivated audience. She shared about how they went to Jim's Tasty Freeze in Graham, North Carolina. She tells about how those conversations make no sense. Then she makes a joke about how there's not a lot of young people in the room.
