Laughter is the best coping mechanism and medicine. I have always had a very dark sense of humour and my list reflects it. Let’s see if you have any in common:

Ricky Gervais

He is one of my top favourite comedians. I love all his work but Humanity stands out. For many reasons.

Mo Amer

This stand-up talks about a number of issues but what really stood out for me is his experience of migration, identity and travelling.

Trevor Noah

This guy is not just funny. He has an amazing life story. Growing up under the apartheid, his unbelievable mother, becoming famous, accents…he is a perfect storyteller.

Daniel Sloss

This was a surprising find. You can joke about anything even if it’s painful and difficult. Often this can help dealing with challenging situation and see the funny side.

Comedians in cars getting coffee

OK, this is not a stand-up but a brilliant concept of a show. It’s simple, charming and I discovered a few new comedians.

And to finish off… when I need a laugh. Never stops to amuse. Have a lovely day and don’t forget to smile.
