The Presentation: In January 2024, while in the midst of a late in life divorce, corporate comedian and business humor speaker Greg Schwem was diagnosed with a malignant tumor lying flat on his colon.
Divorce and cancer in one year. Other than that, how was the play, Mrs. Lincoln?
Facing an uncertain outcome, Schwem was forced to adopt what he had been preaching to corporate clients such as Microsoft, Oracle and AT&T for years: Locate humor in the unfunniest of situations, during times when everything seems hopeless.
With a laptop propped up on hospital pillows, Greg began writing… and writing… and writing. The result was Turning Gut Punches into Punch Lines, a hilarious, multimedia-fueled keynote speech that teaches audience members how to always be on the lookout for “the funny”… and use it to triumph over personal struggles, business challenges, or both.
It starts, Greg says, by admitting you are the “least interesting person in the room.”
Some insights from the presentation, most of which was written without the help of pain medication:
My surgeon kept telling me passing gas any time was a good thing. I handed him my phone and said, “Please call my ex and repeat what you just said.”
Everyone has a great, and funny story to tell, if you’re willing to listen and show genuine interest. Last month I booked two dates, simply because I asked strangers at airports what they did for a living.
I started watching TikTok videos of doctors giving health advice. One was called “Five Foods NEVER to Keep in your Refrigerator” After 30 seconds I realized it could easily be titled, “Five Foods Greg Schwem ALWAYS keeps in his Refrigerator.’
The Speaker: Greg Schwem is one of America’s most sought-after business humorists. Called “Your boss’s favorite comedian” by HuffPost, Greg also writes the nationally syndicated Humor Hotel column for the Chicago Tribune syndicate. He lives in Chicago and is cancer free.
His new book, Turning Gut Punches into Punch Lines;: A Comedian’s Journey Through Cancer, Divorce and Other Hilarious Subjects, will be available in Fall 2024.
