The redemptive power of humor (Interview with Josh Mancuso)



In two years, he's gone from virtually obscurity to having 450,000 followers, collaborating with major universities, and being featured on ESPN and CBS Sports.

All because his videos—most of which poke fun at the college football powerhouses and their fanbases—make people laugh.

Wanting to make people laugh is what persuaded Josh Mancuso to go from behind the camera to in front of it. He sees humor as a high calling, because God wants everyone to laugh...especially those who know Him best.

Our interview with Josh will encourage you to follow God's calling on your life. And it will make you laugh. Because that's what Josh does.

You can follow Josh on YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, X, his website, and . . . what, you need other places, too? Seriously?

This episode originally appeared at The Redemptive Power of Humor — guest: Josh Mancuso on Throwing Mountains.


Chris Bolinger is the author of three men’s devotionals – 52 Weeks of Strength for Men, Daily Strength for Men, and Fuerzas para Cada Día para el Hombre – and the co-host of the Throwing Mountains podcast. He splits his time between northeast Ohio and southwest Florida. Against the advice of medical professionals, he remains a die-hard fan of Cleveland pro sports teams. Find him at mensdevotionals.com.
