Want to instantly connect with your virtual audience?  Humor might be your secret weapon.  In this Minicast Mastery episode of the Virtual Presentation Skills Podcast, we reveal how to use laughter as a science-backed engagement tool in virtual meetings and presentations.

You’ll learn five quick humor hacks to help your audience connect, refocus, and remember you:

1. Know your style and stay self-aware.
2. Tell short, relatable micro-stories.
3. Use light visual humor (a slide or image that makes people smile).
4. Laugh with your audience, not at them.
5. Let your timing breathe — humor works best when it feels natural.

Even one authentic laugh can transform your virtual room — replacing fatigue with focus and formality with connection.

If you want to show up online with confidence, warmth, and personality, this episode will help you find the perfect balance between professionalism and playfulness.

🎧 Listen now — and discover how the humor hack can make your next online presentation your most engaging yet.
