Show Notes

Are you funny?

Don't beat yourself up if you're not. Humour is definitely the hardest thing to get right.

In this episode, we explore what it means to be funny and how effective humour can be for public speaking. We'll talk about the mechanics of a good joke and what mistakes to avoid when trying to be funny in a speech.

I'll even reveal the world's funniest joke...apparently!
