Episode notes
When we laugh, we get a dopamine hit in our brains. That helps us or that first of all, it's like a, you know, essentially a pleasure hit. And so we're more likely to funnel things to our short and long term memory when that happens. When people laugh before taking a short term memory challenge, they will retain more than twice the amount of information than those who don't laugh ahead of time. There are also studies around students whose professors use humor in their teaching. Those students later retain more information. They do better on tests.
