Why did we Evolve to Become Funny?

Did you know that no other animal really laughs? The closest to laughing is the "play sounds" that some apes make when tickled. So then how come humans laugh? And why did we evolve to wield and perceive humour, as a species? 

In this episode, we trace the origins of the funny bone, and discuss why we often don't need impeccable jokes to make us laugh.
