Being a decent person shouldn’t be this complicated.
Unfortunately, we have group chats, dating apps, social media, coworkers, family members, strangers who stand too close to you in line—and absolutely no agreed-upon rules for dealing with any of them.
Happy Fun Times, streaming on YouTube from All Things Comedy, brings together comedians Leslie Liao and Jason Cheny for hilarious, brutally honest debates about the chaos of modern social behavior, the unwritten rules nobody seems to understand, and what it actually takes to become a slightly better—or at least more tolerable—human being.
Sometimes joined by their funniest friends, Leslie and Jason tackle everything from dating etiquette and friendship politics to annoying habits, questionable social norms, relationship expectations, cultural differences, and those tiny everyday interactions that somehow become much bigger arguments than they deserve.
The goal? Solve absolutely nothing while somehow learning something—and have a Happy Fun Time doing it.
