Welcome to Week Sauce, where I share some jokes I wrote about the past week’s events.

And this week, I’m trying something new for people who want me to read some of the jokes out loud.

If you like even one of my dopey little gags, I hope you’ll buy a subscription. It’s the only way I can keep this newsletter going.

Either way, enjoy!

In India, strongman Vispy Kharadi [Sounds kinda like “wispy” and then either “karate” or “Carradine” without the “n”] broke the Guinness World Record for holding up two Hercules Pillars weighing almost 600 pounds each.
He plans to use his newfound fame to find someone willing to wipe his [BLEEP] for the rest of his life. See, because he can’t use his arms anymore.
