David Pogue, New York Times columnist, starts off with a funny song about tech support. Before the talk has ended he also did a funny “Bill Gates Song” and another funny song on Steve Jobs.

Here is a funny conversation between Alan Greenspan and David Letterman. Alan Greenspan, the former Federal Reserve Bank Chairman, tries to explains to Letterman what his role is when he was in that position. And I think he did a good job explaining it.

I always like to hear Alan Greenspan speak. Because as he says himself, “I guess I should warn you, if I turn out to be particularly clear, you’ve probably misunderstood what I’ve said”.

Alan Greenspan’s memoir is The Age of Turbulence: Adventures in a New World

In this hilarious speech, Tim Gard starts out explaining why he like flying and his comic vision. He ends with chicken feet.

Daniel Gilbert, author of the book Stumbling on Happiness, claims that the “impact bais” causes people to over-estimate the amount that events will affect people’s happiness.

Funny music video jokingly answers the age-old question, “What if God had a MySpace account?”

Humorous performance by Ze Frank at TED. He starts with a paradoy of an money mule spam email followed by playing on Google. He makes use of the screen to give humorous twists to his words.

For humor only. This is not a real event nor a real broadcast. It is a funny parody found on the internet about the internet.
