It’s almost Valentine’s Day! Hi, 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, some humor snacks to fill your tummy:

1. Comedy Central released a great compilation of Kevin Hart’s funniest roast comebacks, proving once again why you don’t mess with the Roast master:

2. We’re finally getting official YouTube clips from old Letterman shows!

3. Here’s something different. Dana Carvey and David Spade have an awesome new podcast where they share SNL stories and bring on an SNL alum guest each time as well. You can listen to them on your favorite Podcast app, but they’re also on YouTube in case that’s your style. In this one they talked boomer toys, classic movies, and the most exciting gig in show business with Tom Hanks:

That’s all for now! See you next week.
