Tap into your natural humor persona and become (more) memorable, improve productivity, relieve stress and simply have more fun, here’s how…
curator, your humor is a superpower
Your Mantra - "Collect, curate, and share the laughter. One meme at a time…"
As a Humor Curator, you have a passion for collecting and sharing the things that bring a smile to your face – from funny memes and TV clips to amusing anecdotes and jokes. You’re always on the lookout for something new and exciting to share with your friends and loved ones, and you take great pleasure in seeing their reactions.
Your friends and loved ones appreciate the humor you share with them, not just because it’s funny, but because it shows thoughtfulness. The humor you choose to share is not only a reflection of your personality but also an appreciation and understanding of their personality.
Like your one friend who always sends you memes, DadSaysJokes account on Instagram and Jimmy Fallon you capture the humor you see so you can share it and re-experience it again in the future.

but it’s not all rosy in the land of the Curator
Do you ever find that you’ll share something you think is funny only for people to react ambivalent or confused?
Do people sometimes say to you, “Can you just stop,” or “I already saw that” because you tend to go slightly overboard with your selection of memes/jokes/puns/gifs/jifs/tweets/cartoons/knick-knacks/paddywacks/ and funny cat videos?
I bet your humor has gotten you into trouble once or twice before, hasn’t it?
Here you are, just wanting to spread some laughs, because, you know, fun should be shared… but the people around you somehow see it as an inability to be authentic.
here’s the good news!
Now that you know your humor persona, I, An(Drew) can help you master it in a way that will allow you to fully embrace your sense of humor without having to censor yourself or hinder your relationships with friends, family and coworkers.
what makes me so confident I can teach you?
I’ve been teaching people how to be funny’er for over a decade.
My TEDx talk has been viewed more than 14 million times. And I’ve had the privilege of working with such clients as Microsoft, the FBI, the U.S. Navy, ESPN, PepsiCo, GE, and the International Association of Canine Professionals (yes there were dogs in the audience).
Don’t worry, I got you.
humor is a language we all speak…
Whether it’s “hahaha” in English, “jajaja” in Spanish, “55555” in Thai or “wwww” in Japanese, humor is a language we all speak.
I know this because I’ve spoken to hundreds of thousands of people all around the world. And even though the language changes, the message always resonates.
Humor connects. It builds trust, defuses tension and creates a positive shared experience that brings people closer together. Humor forces you to put your guard down, to stop being defensive and become more receptive. It’s like a little reminder in your brain that says “let’s have an open mind here.”
And humor is just so… much… fun… What is laughter if not the physical expression of joy?
so how do we unlock this incredible skill?
I went ahead and distilled down all of the actionable information in all of my books, keynote presentations and workshops. And condensed it down into a short, insightful and actionable course.
It is exactly what I would teach you if you were sitting here, next to me.

BONUS 1
to sweeten the pot even more, I'm also giving you access to...
FREE DIGITAL BOOKLET
humor curator booklet
To ensure Humor Curators, like yourself, have every chance of success in incorporating humor at work and at home immediately, I’ve put together a very simple booklet.
It’s only 20 pages long, and I designed it specifically to give you just enough to get you some quick wins immediately but not so much that you’re left feeling overwhelmed.
It is immensely valuable when used by itself, but substantially amplified when paired with the Humor Curator Essentials Course.
(not unlike the perfect cheese and wine pairing.)
BONUS 2
remotely funny
A virtual comedy special my team and I filmed during the lockdown.
It’s full of stories, anecdotes, and one of my favorite jokes I’ve ever written (it’s about my wife and I getting married on Zoom and it is truly groan-worthy).
why others like you have joined our courses
“I want to be able to captivate people when I talk. Too often I start to tell a story and get interrupted.
Deep down everyone wants to be listened to as well. Perhaps humor will add that edge that keeps them hanging.”
SARA
“I’m tired of thinking, “What I should have said was….” I believe laughter is the shortest distance between two hearts.
This is a soft skill I wish I had been born with – but since I wasn’t – I’m all about learning it.“
CHANTAINE
“There appears to be a disconnect between my brain (which thinks it’s funny) and my mouth (which convolute the message into something lame) or my fingers (who freeze, stumble or mumble.)”
SUZY
“I find it frustrating that I’m not able to connect with people at the level I’d like.
Language is a structure of thoughts and humor is the penthouse."
VIVIAN
“I want to learn more on how to change language for real change, to be funnier or more relatable, to make a case for those who are not being heard.”
SABRINA
“I am afraid to trust myself and speak up freely. But perhaps there is a tool to change it – the humor. This is what I’ve realized now. In humor I trust.“
VERONIKA
“We take everything too seriously, especially at work.
Then I realized that the Megan in front of the PowerPoint was not at all like Megan chatting at the coffee machine and that both myself and my colleagues liked coffee Megan better.”
MEGAN
I work in dementia care. I see fear, pain, exhaustion, and depression every day.
I took it upon myself to greet everyone with a smile and a joke to help relieve that situation as best as I could. Over time I found it began to have an impact and people began to look forward to a daily joke.”
BRIAN
“I would like to transform the meetings in the company’s medical team area into a light, humorous, and yet full of content dialogues.
I believe that with humor and comedy, it is possible to take care of people… especially people who take care of other people.”
GEORGIA
“I work in a serious business, but I want to incorporate humor in useful ways and to show my personality more without losing credibility.“
SCOTT
“I need more laughter and light in my life. Everything about the world is so serious. I need a break.”
MARGARET
“I want to be a more interesting person. Funny people are always fun to be around, and I want to be someone who others want to be around more.“
