Happy I Love My Feet Day! Hello, I’m Geoff Plitt, and welcome to What You Need to Know, the brief, weekly newsletter where I share the best comedy videos I’ve seen all week. It will always be free, and you’re welcome to become a friend by following me on Twitter, Threads, Instagram, or TikTok, where I share my own jokes every day.
Note: There will be no newsletter next week. Enjoy yourselves, don’t get into trouble, and I will return the week after that.
And now, the funny videos you came for:
