About this listen

Want to learn how to make people laugh out loud?

How to Make People Laugh is a book that targets regular comedians, such as you and me. It does not try to transform you into a professional comedian. Instead, it puts comedy in the spotlight of everyday life. With this book, you will learn techniques that you can easily incorporate at parties or even in regular banter with friends and colleagues.

How to Make People Laugh maintains its hold on wholesome family goodness. After all, you are trying to create not just a comedic persona, but an overall persona. You want people to see you a certain way. Are you Hilarious Harry, Dad Joke Diego, Sarcastic Sharon, or Deadpan Dan? All of those are better than Offensive Oona, Dirty Joke Dean, and Literal Lisa.

This book will show you how to have a general sense of humor - or make full use of the one that you already have. After all, not all jokes are uproariously funny. Some can make you grin. Some can make you smile. So, if you start out making people smile instead of making them laugh, you are on your way.

In How to Make People Laugh, you will discover:

  • The science of charisma
  • How you can develop confidence and charisma
  • The role of body language in the equation
  • The role of personality in the types of jokes and delivery
  • Guidelines to great improv
  • Examples of possible improv responses
  • The value of thinking on your feet
  • Learning not to take yourself seriously
  • Using metaphors and definitions
  • Possible joke structures that you can follow
  • Examples for every joke style
  • Creating comedic personas with examples
  • And more!

There's so much material here that even those who think they're moderately funny can pick up the book again and again, listen a chapter or two, and go out into the world with some fresh ideas on how to inject more fun into their interactions with friends, colleagues, or strangers.

Very very impressive!

Instructional and insightful. Listen to this mainly for writing tips and there was plenty for me to take away. The tips on public speaking and stage fright (to understand and embrace it) would come in very useful in a business environment as well.

This book breaks the wall that I often hit with other business books. The knowledge here is actionable! If you follow the worksheets as you read you will walk away with better stories, funnier intros and a better sense of how to speak in public. A solid understanding of the basics leads into practical and useful tips.

Extremely Good

I bought this as a gift for my nephew who's heading off to college. He knows that girls like guys who are "funny"..."witty" "self-deprecating".... I think this will give him confidence. Really helpful.

Great book. From this book all listeners will learn something about themselves and come away from reading the book with some great ideas, I'd particularly recommend the book for high school, college, and young adults starting out in the social world or workplace, and adults of all ages who feel somewhat shy, introverted, socially anxious, or awkward.

Great for Everyone!
