Whether it is a chuckle or a chortle, a titter or a giggle, a guffaw or a howl, we’ve all had a reason to LOL. It makes us feel good, we’re more likely to do it in groups, but why do we do it at all? Why do so many different things make us laugh (some of them painful)? Why do we make these spontaneous vocal eruptions and what makes them so enjoyable and infectious? Join Dr Karl and Jenny Wynter as they unravel what tickles your funny bone and if it really is humorous. Anything you don’t find out, you can ask our expert. We’ll be sure to make time for your questions.
