4 Kwik Tips To Remember Jokes with Jim K...

Jim Kwik, Your Brain Coach, Founder www.KwikLearning.com
About this episode

How do you memorize jokes?

Tell me if this sounds familiar. You hear a fantastic joke, but when the time comes to repeat it, your mind goes blank. This doesn’t seem to happen with song lyrics or movie quotes, so why do jokes feel like they disappear moments after you hear them?

I work with stand-up comedians to help them memorize their sets by teaching them the methods we teach in our online memory course, and today, I’m going to give you four Kwik Tips to help you remember jokes.

When it comes to telling a good joke, it’s frustrating to miss the punchline or forget a detail that makes the whole thing falls flat. Listen in, as I go over the 4 C’s to ensure you recall every laugh-out-loud joke with ease.
