Do you want to be more humorous? Have you ever watched someone effortlessly make a group laugh and wished you knew their magic? Well, wonder no more. The mystery of charisma is finally unveiled; the fallacy of "you either have it, or you don't" has been laid bare. Anyone can learn to make people laugh.

Observing a couple of surprisingly simple rules, Make People Laugh is a comedic tour de force, as it explores all the facets of laughter. The lessons and techniques found within this guide will help you write your own jokes, as you learn about the how's and why's of wordplay, slapstick, conversational comedy, and beyond. On the quest for a belly laugh, no grin is too tiny, no joke left behind. Understanding the biological imperative to laugh and social desire will give you a leg up when you try to get them going.

You’ll learn:

  • Timing isn’t an important thing—it’s the only thing; how to practice, improve, and master the perfect time and place for any joke
  • Why jokes work—the universal commonality that almost everything you might laugh at has in common
  • Why more than 50 percent of laughter you hear is not in response to intended humor—how to take advantage of that fact

  • And so much more
