We're not talking about the mechanics of humor this week -- we're talking about why we laugh. Is laughter really the best medicine? We talk about our first memories of laughter (and would love to know yours). Along the way, we realized there are dark corners when it comes to laughter; we walk down the alley and discuss at what point we began laughing at more...raunchy things. There are things guaranteed to make us laugh every time we see them, and we tell you what those things are.Why do people laugh at things they feel are taboo? The Internet: is it good or bad for laughter? Why can something as fun as laughter also be seen as an insult? We also talk about why some people laugh when they're nervous. Are comedies really all that funny? If so, what comedies make us laugh the most? Find out who makes us laugh the most! We close it all out talking about the hardest we've ever laughed and our favorite things about laughter.We're not saying this episode is a laugh-riot, but hopefully it will make you appreciate laughter on a much deeper level.
