Ever notice how some of the sharpest minds belong to comedians?

There may be a reason for that.

Comedians spend their lives looking for patterns, making unexpected connections, spotting contradictions and learning to see ordinary things from a completely different perspective.

So I took almost 40 years of doing that professionally and turned it into a game.

TRAIN YOUR FUNNY BRAIN is fun and ridiculously easy to play. You get a topic. You tell us what it makes you think about. The Kazam Humor Engine helps turn your thought into a joke while you explore different angles and make choices along the way.

But here's what makes it different:

The game isn't just writing the joke. It's training you to recognize the patterns behind the funny.

At the end of every round, you get a Joke Index that scores the comedy-thinking skills you used, plus personalized training notes showing what you did well, what to work on and what to try next.

The more you play, the more you start looking at everyday life a little differently.

And the best part? It's actually fun.

I'm opening it up FREE for the next few days. No credit card. No download.

At 58, my body may be a hot mess, but my mind is as sharp as ever.

I think after almost 40 years as a professional comedian, comedy probably has a lot to do with both. LOL

Comedians spend their lives exercising a very particular way of thinking — making unexpected connections, spotting contradictions, changing perspective and finding something in an ordinary situation that other people might miss.

And there’s actual science behind it.

Researchers studying professional comedians have found differences in how experienced comedians create humor, including greater reliance on spontaneous associations, along with research connecting comedy expertise to verbal intelligence, abstract thinking and divergent thinking.

George Burns was still performing at 98 and had sold-out shows planned for his 100th birthday.

I’m not saying comedy keeps you young or makes you smarter.

But it got me thinking:

What if you could practice thinking like a comedian without actually becoming one?

So I turned joke writing into a brain game.

TRAIN YOUR FUNNY BRAIN gives you a topic. You find what it makes you think about. Then you explore connections, perspectives and different comic angles while the Kazam Humor Engine does the heavy lifting of building the joke.

But it doesn’t stop at the joke.

The game scores the comedy-thinking skills you used and gives you personalized training notes showing what you did well, what you can work on, and what to try next. Then you can go back, apply what you learned and see if you improve.

Because the joke isn’t really the exercise.

Finding the funny is the exercise.

So I’ve been on the clock to come up with a game app for the holiday season.

I created two family games, but then I started wondering… do families even gather around and play games anymore? 😂

So I decided to go where the heat is: Brain Games.

I took something I’ve spent my entire career doing and teaching — finding the funny — and turned joke writing into a brain game.

You get a topic. You give us whatever thought, opinion, story, complaint or observation pops into your head. You don’t have to write the joke. You just have to think. The Kazam Humor Engine does the heavy lifting, turns your thought into a joke, and then shows you the comedy-thinking skills you used along the way.

Basically: I turned joke writing into a game.

I’m looking for a few people to test it before I take it any further. If you want to give your funny brain a workout, drop a comment and I’ll send you the link.

I think you’re going to love this one.

GOLD'S GYM.

Joe Gold didn't invent bodybuilding.

He built a gym where people could train their bodies.

That's pretty much what we've done for your sense of humor.

We didn't invent Humor Training.

We built the gym.

Because here's something I've learned after almost four decades of writing, performing and teaching comedy:

You can get funnier.

And you don't do it by sitting through a lecture about comedy.

You do it the same way you get better at almost anything else.

REPS.

That's what we built into the software.

You bring something real from your life—an idea, a story, a frustration, a presentation, a wedding toast, something that happened at work, whatever.

Then we write the joke WITH you.

You see how your original thought becomes a setup.

You see where the turn happens.

You see the pattern, the structure and the process.

You try another angle.

Punch it up.

Change something.

Keep what works.

Throw out what doesn't.

And because you're an active participant in the process instead of just asking AI to "make this funny," something starts to happen.

You start seeing it.

The patterns.

The angles.

The possibilities.

You start understanding the language of funny.

And eventually, you start finding more of it on your own.

THAT'S Humor Training.

The Kazam Humor Engine may be powered by AI, but the AI isn't what we're training.

YOU ARE.

Think of it as a workout for your funny bone.

Just with a lot less sweating and grunting. 😂

HUMOR TRAINING?

Because When They Laugh, You Win.

Why It Matters More in a World with AI

I've been working on this book for a while.

A LONG while.

I first had the idea about 17 years ago.

And the truth is, the book has actually been done for a while too.

I just haven't released it.

Something wasn't right.

It wasn't the idea. I've believed for years that people should train their sense of humor.

I've taught thousands of people over my career, and I've watched people who didn't think they were funny discover that they were. I've watched them become better communicators, more confident speakers, make stronger connections with other people and learn to find humor and perspective in their own lives.

That's why I've fought so hard for this.

We train our bodies. We train our memory. We train leadership, communication and public speaking. We learn other languages.

Why don't we train our sense of humor?

Humor Training isn't something I invented. People have been studying and teaching versions of it for years, including in most of Europe.

Think about Gold's Gym.

Joe Gold didn't invent muscles.

He didn't invent bodybuilding.

He built the gym.

That's how I've always thought about what I've been trying to do with humor.

But 17 years ago, there really wasn't a gym.

If you wanted to seriously get better at humor, you could take my comedy class, attend a workshop or hire somebody like me to coach you.

Public AI chatbots weren't a thing. Hell, some people were still using dial-up. 😂

Eventually technology gave me a way to solve that problem.

I could build the gym.

The Kazam Humor Engine and the software around it gave people a way to actually train—to bring their own stories, frustrations, presentations, speeches and real-life situations and work on finding THEIR funny.

So I finally had the HOW.

But something was still missing.

I needed a reason to take up the fight to make Humor Training a thing...again.

Not a reason for ME.

I already knew why it mattered.

I needed a reason for everybody else to care.

And then, ironically, AI dropped it right in my lap.

With the AI sh*tstorm people are starting to take notice that AI is here and people are going to not only have to compete with AI, but with each other in a way we have never seen before.

For the first time, I didn't just know why we should train our sense of humor.

I knew what we were training FOR.

Maybe it's finally time we start taking Humor Training seriously.

Not because everybody needs to become a comedian.

Because becoming funnier means becoming better at speaking and understanding a language that can help us cope, communicate and connect with other people.

The idea didn't change.

THE WORLD DID.

Here's the short synopsis:

Humor isn't just about telling jokes. It's a human capability that can help us cope when life gets hard, communicate what we really mean, and connect with other people.

As artificial intelligence gets better at doing more of what people do, the challenge isn't simply whether humans can compete with machines. People will still compete with people—for jobs, clients, attention, trust, relationships, opportunities and the chance to be heard.

Humor Training? explores why your sense of humor isn't a fixed trait reserved for comedians or the "naturally funny", how it can be developed using the stories, experiences, frustrations and point of view you already have—and why now may be the perfect time to start.

You don't need to become a comedian.

You just need to become better at expressing the person you already are.

Because when they laugh, you win.

I think this is finally the book.

A human is what you are.

A person is who you are.

There’s a difference.

The human is the hardware.

Bones. Muscles. Organs. A brain.

But the person?

That’s your stories. Your experiences. Your personality. Your point of view. The way you cope. The way you communicate. The way you connect with other people.

And your sense of humor.

Humor doesn’t make you human.

It makes you YOU.

That’s why I believe your sense of humor is worth training.

Not because everybody needs to become a comedian.

Because becoming better at humor means becoming better at expressing the person you already are. Connecting with people. Communicating what you really mean. Finding perspective when life gets hard.

You're not training yourself to tell more jokes. You're training a part of yourself that you use every damn day.

And in a world where AI is getting better at doing more of what humans do, I think getting better at being a PERSON matters more than ever.

That’s what Humor Training is about.

The Kazam Humor Engine is powered by AI.

But the AI isn’t what we’re training.

You are.

Not to become someone else’s version of funny.

To find more of yours.

And yes, it will write you a joke for your speech tomorrow too. 😂

Every sales team has a Jake.

Naturally funny. Quick on his feet. Gets the room laughing without even trying.

And you've been competing with that a-hole your entire career. 😂

Well, Jake's advantage isn't quite as special as it used to be.

I took 38 years of comedy experience and put it into software so you don't have to be "naturally funny" to find the funny.

Being naturally funny is overrated.

For everyone else, we've got you covered.

Go where the traction takes you.

An entrepreneur told me that a long time ago, and when it comes to the Kazam Humor Engine, by far the most traction I've gotten has been from my wedding toast posts.

Not really surprising.

In fact, it's one of the reasons I built this software.

I didn't want to teach somebody a class on how to write jokes for a wedding toast. I wanted to give them something they could use to find the funny quickly, easily and safely—with some guardrails to keep them out of trouble.

Because giving the toast is hard enough.

Trying to be funny is where things can go very wrong.

I still believe a whole lot more people can benefit from this technology, and I'll keep shouting that from the rooftops.

That's my mission, and I've chosen to accept it.

The Best Man doesn't have that luxury. 😂

He got thrust into this situation and a big part of his mission is to be funny.

A wedding toast without humor isn't much of a wedding toast—and that's some third-act tension no wedding needs.

I believe the Best Man can be the hero.

We're just here to make the hardest part a whole lot easier.

Accept your mission: KazamEngine .com or on Google Play

And now I’m curious...

Who’s seen a wedding toast blow up?

And was it usually right around the moment they started “trying to be funny”?
