There’s this thing called Red Nose Day.
In the U.K., there’s a charity called Comic Relief, and since 1988 they’ve had an annual comedy event to raise money for children in poverty. Lots of famous people tell jokes for a cause.
NBC has finally brought Red Nose Day to America.
They made some funny videos to go with it. Rather than explaining it in detail and boring you to death, I’ll just show it to you.
Here’s Anna Kendrick as Indiana Jones finding the Holy Grail. With jokes.
If you can’t watch it, here’s the best joke:
The knight says something mildly condescending.
IndiAnna (yea, I went there) Jones is not amused. She whips him into shape.
She educates him on the 20th/21st century.
Then she sets him up for the punchline.
Wait for it…
Ba dum dum. Tip your waiters. So they can pay for Knight school.
If you want to be entertained and help some kids tonight, here’s what to do.
- You can watch the show tonight, May 21, on NBC.
- You can also donate to Red Nose Day and help a bunch of kids in the process. (If you need to do some due diligence, here’s all the charities they’ll be funding.)
- You can pass the comedy around. Your call, though.
Choose wisely!
