Christian comedian Tracy DeGraaf (along with her bff Cathrine) will drop weekly episodes (Wednesdays) on topics you care about like how your marriage can survive your husband’s loud chewing, how you can laugh about your kids driving you nuts, and how to scoff off those lady whiskers and not worry about your Howdy Doody sleep wrinkle.

They have truly learned the secret of Life Happens Laugh Anyway.

Hi Friends, Tracy here. My husband and I survived raising 5 boys and there were so many funny stories along the way. Now is my time to "show and tell." 🥳 I put these stories in my book and on stage in my comedy act. It's so much fun.

If you're new to my comedy, here's a little about me.
I'm from the Chicago area and I perform my one-woman clean comedy show “Life Happens Laugh Anyway” nationwide for both corporate and non-profit organizations.
My comedy combines two of my passions: Christianity and breast cancer awareness. (I was diagnosed in 2016 with stage 1 Invasive Ductal Carcinoma...a fancy name for breast cancer. Currently, I'm doing great and am cancer free!)
As a Christian and a breast cancer survivor, I use my platform to inspire women spiritually and motivate them to schedule their breast cancer screenings. I like to tell women “I want you to know Jesus, but I don’t want you to meet Him face-to-face just yet.” 🙏❤️
I pull material from my experiences as a wife, mother of five grown sons and middle-aged woman. I love performing for Girls Night Out Events, Women’s Conferences, Fundraisers, Breast Cancer Awareness Events, Cancer Survivor Events and more. I was trained for comedy at The Second City in Chicago. I'm happily married to my husband, Ron (a.k.a. Muffin) since 1989 and we are now empty nesters! 😁 We can't stop smiling. Our boys are spread out between Colorado, Illinois and Indiana.
I publish a weekly podcast called Life Happens Laugh Anyway with my bff Cathrine and it is so much fun. We started the podcast when the world shut down during Covid since all of my shows were canceled. It's a hoot. We tackle a new topic weekly that we think our audience will care about and discuss it in an entertaining way. We close each episode with some spiritual encouragement. 👍

Hey Humor Consumers,
Does your personal style need a little boost? Tune into episode 124 Personal Style for 2023. You will hear all about what it is and how to find or refine yours. We both fell in love with two style experts. We think you'll love Molly Bingamin and Linda Paige. We've listed them here in case you'd like to go deeper. Molly has a really cool TedTalk that drew us in and Linda has oooodles of Youtube vids that are addictive.

Are you age 45 or older? Do you know someone age 45 or older? You or someone you love may be due for a colonoscopy. Some of you may know that Tracy is a cancer survivor and considers herself an ambassador and advocate for screenings.

ENJOY.

Hey Humor Consumers,
Remember the many scandalous news stories of the 90s? The OJ Simpson trial, Lorena Bobbitt, Monica Lewinsky? They don't hold a candle to Vernon Howell. Who is Vernon Howell you ask? He is none other than God....in his own mind of course. We know him as David Koresh, the 33-year-old mad man who was responsible for the deaths of dozens of people in Waco, TX.
On today's episode, you'll hear about the perfect storm that led to hell on earth in a small unassuming town just south of Dallas, TX.
ENJOY.

Hey Humor Consumers,
Girls Trips....yay or nay? We say YAY of course. Hello friends. Cathrine and I just returned from a week in sunny Venice, Florida. What a blast. On episode 121 we are talking about the health benefits of taking a girls trip. We also chat about our own experiences and give some helpful things to consider before you plan your next girls trip.
Here's a link to an article on the subject that we mentioned in this episode.https://www.healthywomen.org/content/article/girls-trips-really-are-good-your-health

Hey Humor Consumers,
Episode 120 has lots of "LOL" opportunities for you. We laughed so we hope you will too. We were under the "time gun" to get this one in before we left for a Florida girls trip (a first of this type for both of us as we went with our friend Angie to visit her mom. So much fun.)
Anyway, Cathrine prepped for the 90s episode, but I prepped for the next episode which will be on the topic of what happened in Waco with the cult and raid and fire etc.
We decided to record even though I wasn't ready because WHY NOT? Right?
ENJOY.

Hey Humor Consumers!
Remember Government Cheese?
Did you know that it started as a government program to bail out dairy farmers? It continued for decades and perhaps still to this day there are cows out there giving milk for cheese that no one is going to eat. Yup yup.

***MORE ABOUT TRACY DEGRAAF COMEDY***
Hi Friends, Tracy here. My husband and I survived raising 5 boys and there were so many funny stories along the way. Now is my time to "show and tell." 🥳 I put these stories in my book and on stage in my comedy act. It's so much fun.

If you're new to my comedy, here's a little about me.
I'm from the Chicago area and I perform my one-woman clean comedy show “Life Happens Laugh Anyway” nationwide for both corporate and non-profit organizations.
My comedy combines two of my passions: Christianity and breast cancer awareness. (I was diagnosed in 2016 with stage 1 Invasive Ductal Carcinoma...a fancy name for breast cancer. Currently, I'm doing great and am cancer free!)
As a Christian and a breast cancer survivor, I use my platform to inspire women spiritually and motivate them to schedule their breast cancer screenings. I like to tell women “I want you to know Jesus, but I don’t want you to meet Him face-to-face just yet.” 🙏❤️
I pull material from my experiences as a wife, mother of five grown sons and middle-aged woman. I love performing for Girls Night Out Events, Women’s Conferences, Fundraisers, Breast Cancer Awareness Events, Cancer Survivor Events and more. I was trained for comedy at The Second City in Chicago. I'm happily married to my husband, Ron (a.k.a. Muffin) since 1989 and we are now empty nesters! 😁 We can't stop smiling. Our boys are spread out between Colorado, Illinois and Indiana.
I publish a weekly podcast called Life Happens Laugh Anyway with my bff Cathrine and it is so much fun. We started the podcast when the world shut down during Covid since all of my shows were canceled. It's a hoot. We tackle a new topic weekly that we think our audience will care about and discuss it in an entertaining way. We close each episode with some spiritual encouragement. 👍
