Summary
Today is #2 in a special 5-part series about moms in honor of Every Mother Counts. Amy Schumer is as sharp a writer as she is a performer. I love her always-on-point work in Life & Beth, Trainwreck and all 44 episodes of Inside Amy Schumer. She’s honest in way I wish more people were and you’ll hear that in this candid conversation about her mother, Sandra.
This series hopes to raise $100,000 to support maternal health in 9 countries through Every Mother Counts, founded in 2010 and led every day since by Christy Turlington Burns. Please join us with a donation here.

| 1:40.0 | I'm so happy to see you. |
| 1:41.0 | I'm just happy to be amongst women. Yeah. Women with glasses. |
| 1:47.0 | So Amy, I wondered if you could come up with three adjectives for how you would have described your mom when you were 16 years old and then how you would describe her now that she's a grandma. |
