- President Obama's appearance on "Between Two Ferns" made tens of millions of people laugh (and saved lives in the process). In a culture flooded with too much partisan information, comedy is the last great refuge of truth and access.
Brad Jenkins is the Managing Director and Executive Producer of Funny Or Die DC. For the last four years, Jenkins served as President Obama’s liaison and director of engagement to the creative and advocacy communities, bringing together creative executives, advocacy leaders, and some of the world’s biggest stars to advance the President’s agenda -- including his Emmy-award winning "Between Two Ferns" interview on the Affordable Care Act. See www.funnyordie.com
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

He has a great dad
When I first met my future my son in law, he told me, with a laugh in his voice, "I'm Jap-i-can!" Ha! He is half Japanese, and half Mexican! IT WAS GREAT!

What a difference our workplaces could be if we had more of this spirit in our culture.
This comment is so spot on (and honestly more relevant than ever) 6 years later
Genuine, authentic,effortless and lovable, great speech brad !
Wonderful and amazing story. Thank you so much for the inspiration talk. You're a beautiful person. And so is your father and family.
This is one of your amazing things, Brad. Keep up your hard work!
thank you Brad for sharing your story, and thank you TEDx talks and TED for sharing the amazing knowledge
17 minutes felt like 2 minutes .....very engaging speaker . Big thumbs up.
Brad Jenkins you did good. I enjoyed your presentation. Keep up the spirit and keep sharing
that video actually made me go to the website for the first time! and i was covered under obama care last year. i didn't know to sign up in time for this year but i cannot wait until december.
great inspiration- thank you so much
powerful message! And thank you for sharing papa J's words as well!
Well-done to your Papa J, great talk, great speaking and a great smile. Such a charismatic person.
Awesome point of view. Will listen again with my son.
how inspiration i get from u...!
incredible.............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I Really like The The #2 SENTENCE WORDS OF WISDOM FROM
POPPA J ..., "WELL HOW DID U PLAY THE GAME? HOW WELL DID YOU PLAY??". + DO NOT GIVE UP + More.
Reminds me of Ted's Philosophy. "Party on, dude!" and "Be excellent to each other!"
100 % implementing what u said.
This was hilarious and inspiring..thank u ted x for uploading
I like this guy.
I think he's married though
@@DrEboi477 I don't think he wants to bang him
Excellent advice from your Dad.
I am Chinese, and I am proud of myself
Laugh at yourself
hey, Brad! I would love to see your dad on Tedtalk :)! That was great lessons for everybody
His Father has a lot of wisdom. And he shared it with him. Awesome dad tho.
Way to go Brad!!!!!
His smiling is so infectious
He's not downing Chinese, he just didn't see himself as that so it felt alien to be called that. It would have been the same if they had called him "hey Icelandic boy." You get the idea... anyway he is handsome and funny no matter what his genes.
i will try not to forget papa J's words
I have learnt something on use of humor
Amazing , you're from Trenton my home town!
Thats good that you acknowldged yourself. I stay in Cincinnati, ○hio

Read the title as 'Brad Jenkin' and seeing the thumbnail with Obama's picture got me clicking this video immediately. 😂 Great though! 😀
I enjoyed this one
Just wondered what his mother was called! Did I miss that? I liked this a lot!
Still waiting for that one where TED actually talks!
TED never talks, its just the name of the organisation

Great Personal Testimony about being oneself. Unfortunately the affordable health care is a disaster.

If you can’t laugh at yourself or take anything too serious know I can’t relate, and I hope you find fun in your life because it’s ok too, except everyone will not care 😂 so be brave and just be you !
