Show Notes

Working can be hard work… obviously. But that doesn’t mean it should only be hard work.

 

Studies show we laugh and smile less as we enter our 20s - which is when most of us enter the full-time workforce. 

 

Given how much of our lives we spend at work, we all want to make it a bit more fun. But the good news for the boss is - laughing more often at work makes us better at our jobs! So the question is: how do we become funnier? 

 

Naomi Bagdonas teaches humour at Stanford University (yes, that’s a real job) and shares some concrete, actionable tips for being funny, and for making humour a habit.
