Fellow speaker,
Professional Comedian speaker Judy Carter suggests use this list formula to get laughs from your audience:
- Big issue
- Big issue
- Small issue
For example: "It's scary out there: the world is getting warmer, homicides are up, people think plaid is a good fashion choice!"
- Small
- Small
- Big
For example: "Here are three subtle clues that your husband is cheating on you: he doesn't kiss you as passionately, he looks away when you are talking, he introduces you to his fiancee."
Laughingly,
