Happy National Hugging Day! 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, Instagram, or TikTok, where I share my own jokes every day.
And now, your regularly scheduled comedy distractions:

Hari Kondabolu remembers creating a dangerous game with his younger brother and compares religious texts to the “Back to the Future” franchise:
Lil Rel Howery imagines a lingerie store for men and breaks down how some of his older relatives struggle to use technology properly:
Comedy Central has released a new compilation of Snoop Dogg’s best roast moments:
That’s all, folks! See you next week.
