I want to do more blog pieces about humour, I think that I can be a little earnest at times?
This was an extremely funny and insightful podcast from the Australian Broadcast Company (ABC).
This podcast while focusing of the "psychological side" of humour, really made me laugh. Typically the "All in the Mind" series tries to a light and good humoured view of the world, even if this themes are often truly tragic. However in this episode, Natasha really let her hair down and had a blast:
Good comedians push us where few of us dare to go -- we find ourselves rolling in the aisles with shock and delight. Two top-of-the-bill acts at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival reflect on Freud, the comedic psyche and the power of the potty mouth. And, New Yorker columnist and science journalist Jim Holt unravels the rollicking history and philosophy of jokes.
