Fireside Chat with Pendleton Ward: Joke Theory
Thu, Nov 10th
6:15PM - 7:15PM
Online: Crowdcast
A talk on joke theory; the mechanics of lulls and lols. A deconstruction of humor pulled out of my poutine days before the talk. BE THERE!
... "The birth of a giggle, the moon-like suck and swell of timing, how to ostracize and how to firehose candy with jokes - these topics will be stabbed at from the shadows by Pendleton on Thursday..."
