Is it possible to laugh and still take life seriously? W.G. (Bill) Williams says yes—and he’s been proving it for over 20 years. A former FEMA communications director, journalist, and daily email humorist, Williams believes humor isn’t just a luxury—it’s a survival tool. Now the author of “20 Years of Internet Humor…and Other Interesting Things” is sharing the wit and wisdom that helped thousands of readers get through tough days. Williams will explore the healing power of humor in an age of outrage and anxiety and explain why laughter is a powerful social glue, a stress reliever, and even a quiet form of rebellion. With stories from his government days to his decades-long tradition of daily jokes, he offers levity that goes deeper than punchlines—without ever losing the punch.
