The Exchange for Dec. 3 is over. We discussed the value of a good joke, shared some silly one-liners, and talked about the role of humor in the Bering Strait Region.
Thank you to our very funny guests — Marjorie and Vanessa Tahbone — for showing off their comedic skills, telling funny stories, and helping us learn more about the Inupiaq style of humor.
Our callers included Fred in Stebbins and Mina in Nome, both of whom told knock-knock jokes; Richard in Nome, who shared an anecdote as well as his thoughts on the importance of comedy; and Barb in Nome, who gave great insight on why humor is an Alaska Native value and how it can help us heal and connect. We also had online comments from Laura and Maddie in Nome, both of whom shared their favorite puns.
From buddy comedies to knock-knock jokes — and from terrible puns to perfect punch lines — humor is a part of our lives.
This week on KNOM Exchange, we’re talking about jokes and good humor. So join us this Thursday morning and tell us:
- What’s your favorite joke or your best funny story?
- Who’s the funniest person you know?
- Where do you get ideas for your jokes?
- And why is humor an important part of your life?
Whether it makes us laugh or makes us groan, we want to hear what you have to say. Tune in this Thursday, Dec. 3 at 10 a.m.
