One year ago today… up at Burrow Head for the 50th anniversary ritual; to cut some capers and be the village band… Happy May Day all…
So lovely to talk to Joel Morris @gralefrit about his new book, Be Funny Or Die. I honestly can't recommend it highly enough. He breaks things down in a way that makes complete sense. Writer friends, comedy friends - you want this book.

Citizens of Islington head down to your local @Waterstones for a copy of @gralefrit magnificent book!
The worst thing about ITV losing £1m putting out the most significant TV hit of the year ‘Mr Bates Vs The Post Office’ is that the people who own the ad sales tracking software won’t tell them how this is even possible, and are insisting they pay it all back from their savings.
I’ll be up at Hay, talking about Be Funny Or Die… see you there if you’re going to be there…

Fantastic sold-out @e17RnR_books event @stowtradeshall last night to launch @gralefrit's #BeFunnyorDie @unbounders. Such an entertaining and engrossing talk with Joel and @benwillbond (#Ghosts) making a great comic duo. Big 🙏🏼🙏🏼@markwhart and @WaterstonesE17 for making it happen.
All hail the almighty Clown triangles!!! 🤡 @gralefrit @benwillbond
HUGE THANKS to @gralefrit and @benwillbond for a fascinating delve into the workings of comedy. Big up the @unbounders crew and everyone who came along to the @stowtradeshall for an exceptional launch event for BE FUNNY OR DIE - HOW COMEDY WORKS AND WHY IT MATTERS 📕 🎭 🤡
THANKS to everyone who came along to the Be Funny Or Die book talk and signing last night (hosted by the wonderful Ben Willbond). We had an absolute blast, and the audience questions were bright, incisive and cool. You were fantastic. It was proper fun…
Voyager is alive again! Just one more middle aged dude wandering the universe aimlessly with a cool 70s vinyl collection.
Doing the book chat with one of the best in the biz… COME ALONG!

Last time we played an acoustic show at Cecil Sharp House, we blew the speaker limiters with our relentless block drone harmonies. Looking forward to testing them again… Maximum wall-of-folk. May 7th, London… Very excited. >> LINK >> BELOW >>
I’m no comedian (as anyone who’s read my more “amusing” tweets will attest) but I’m really enjoying this audiobook by @gralefrit about the craft of comedy writing. Full of funny gags and insight about story rhythm that would benefit any writer really. And it’s great company! 🤡
This is tomorrow night in Walthamstow with @gralefrit & @benwillbond and it will be an absolute hoot and also comedy nerd heaven. Handful of tickets left if you’re quick. eventbrite.com/e/be-funny-or-…
@gralefrit Finally started on BFOD. Already mindblown: an audience doesn’t care about your jokes, they want to know about you and make up their own jokes about you and feel satisfied they were right (paraphrased).
This is GLORIOUS.

Anyone looking for a quick read about stand-up, try @gralefrit's article on Substack about Steve Martin. I LOVE to dissect comedy (no learning, frog dies yada yada), but this is one of the most considered analytical love letters I've read in quite a bit. open.substack.com/pub/joelmorris…
@gralefrit I have done both and each of them are brilliant...💫 Love that my favourite Young Ones clip is in there!
@duke_prunes @gralefrit Could have made the film without showing the monsters and it would have been spookier. People go into the mist and every so often a bloody limb comes out. I kinda was hoping that was the film they were making until the tentacles came out and I had to go "fine, so it's this"
@gralefrit Hi Joel, I’ve just finished your book. Really enjoyed it and learnt loads. Thanks!
Gruelling analysis is my crack (Video in comments)
If you liked Be Funny Or Die but haven’t seen this video, or you liked this video and haven’t read the book… here’s two minutes of a classic episode of The Simpsons dissected with some fervour…
People go watch this, its really interesting. This is the level of nerdy information Eli likes like yes tell me exactly what is happening and why its funny.

So lovely to talk to Joel Morris @gralefrit about his new book, Be Funny Or Die. I honestly can't recommend it highly enough. He breaks things down in a way that makes complete sense. Writer friends, comedy friends - you want this book.

Citizens of Islington head down to your local @Waterstones for a copy of @gralefrit magnificent book!
@robmanuel @gralefrit That was the big misstep in Signs for me as well. An intriguing film until the big green guy appears.
@gralefrit @duke_prunes Mist, for me, made me meditate on parenting. You are in control of these people's lives. You could try your best and get it wrong. In this film the most brutal example, but for all of us, every day, smaller examples.
@gralefrit @robmanuel Have you seen Time Enough At Last from The Twilight Zone? Wondering how that works. Or if it doesn’t for you.
@gralefrit @duke_prunes Both parts are good. Reminded me of The Birds. For my money the only criticism that was ringing in my head whilst watching it was not liking some of the CGI, but that is just what films of that era look like.
@gralefrit @duke_prunes Not how the film ends. Doesn't kill himself, he kills family to prevent their deaths at hands of others coz he believes there is no hope. He lives on in despair. A real horror idea asking you to imaging doing the greatest sacrifice and events proving that you were wrong.
@robmanuel @gralefrit I’d have to watch it again. My memory, apart from being utterly stunned and shocked, was that until the end I thought the film was pretty cheesy.
@gralefrit @robmanuel TOTALLY AGREE!!!! Thank God I’m not alone.
Watched The Mist (2007) last night. Didn't know anything about it, just it popped up in the menu, IMDB said 7.1 and watched it, and bloody hell, that ending. You don't get that very often in Hollywood films.
@gralefrit probably (defo) should have asked this on Tues but only popped into my head now. What do you think it is about comedy that attracts so many autistic/neurodivergent stand up comedians? There seem to be so many nowadays, quite a few recently diagnosed.
So delighted to find @gralefrit citing my absolute favourite Simpson’s line in Be Funny or Die. It’s not that the line is laugh-out-loud funny, but it’s so profound I’ve been musing on it (and quoting it to generations of students) for maybe 25 years
