until it's told!
It is up to you to save the jokes that are trapped in joke-limbo.
A text joke's existence is two-dimensional and soulless.
Turn one into a real audio-joke here!
Your karma will improve and a puppy will get a pair of sparkly angel wings!
(Don't worry if someone else has told the same joke. Tell it better!)

Top Joke-Telling Tips
- Don't read your joke
- The best jokes told are the ones not read from a script. Try to memorize and practice your joke before telling it. If you can tell it without looking at notes, it will sound much more natural. NOTE - No one really says, "he replied" or "she responded." These are purely written joke phrases. Get rid of them!
- Get into character
- Change your voice or accent for each of the characters in your joke and try making some impromptu sound effects to accentuate the story.
- Embellish
- Joke-telling is storytelling. Use details (place names, character descriptions, etc) to make your joke sound more like a real story that you are recounting to a friend. Details draw the audience in and disguise the impending, and hopefully hilarious, twist ending.
- Go retro with a Land Line
- If you don't have a great cell signal, or a high quality cordless phone, you may be better off going old-school with a landline.
- Don't distort
- Don't hold the phone too close to your mouth and don't yell. You'd be surprised how sensitive telephone microphones are.
- Record it again
- If your train of thought derails halfway through the joke, re-record it. Umm's and missed cues should not make it into a Comic Wonder-worthy performance.
