End your punchlines with a ‘K’

Why do comedians love consonants? And why is ‘flank' so funny to say? Delve into the science and trickery of being funny from the perspectives of a neuroscientist, a standup comedian, a scientist, and a copywriter.

Listen to Sophie Scott, Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience at UCL; Ash Dunne, Scientific Director at Merk; Marion Miranda, Copywriter at Leith; and Ria Lina, award-winning comedian as they discuss the science of being funny.
