We learn about writing monologue jokes with Ben Alper who has written jokes for several decades and has seen them performed by the likes of Jay Leno and Dave Letterman.
We discuss his recently published book: Live from the Beginning of Time: Late Night Comedy Monologues Through the Ages.
The book imagines if there were late-night talk show hosts during things like the discovery of fire and the development of democracy.
The episode will give you tips on writing jokes for topical news stories.
