Why We All Love Memes More Than News [Episode 60]

Welcome back to Jokes Out Loud! I’m your host, Thomas Smith, and today we’re diving into a very serious topic… well, not really. We’re talking about memes — the only thing keeping humanity emotionally stable since 2009.
Let’s be honest: we all claim we want to stay “informed,” but the moment the news gets depressing — which is always — we run back to memes like they’re emotional support animals. Why? Because news tells us what’s happening, but memes tell us what’s happening… but funnier.
In today’s episode, we’re exploring why we’d rather scroll through chaotic meme pages than watch a five-minute news update, how memes somehow tell the truth faster than journalists, and why your brain picks SpongeBob over CNN every single time.
So grab your snacks, open your favorite meme page, and let’s jump into the hilarious world of Why We All Love Memes More Than News — only on Jokes Out Loud!

So grab your headphones, keep your hands and feet inside the emotional rollercoaster at all times, and let’s explore the hilarious world of Fandoms That Scare Us (But We Love Them).
