Why Laughter and Playfulness Are Essential for a Healthy Marriage | Guest: Ted Cunningham

Laughter is not just fun, it is essential to a healthy marriage. In this episode of Marriage on the Daily, Julie B sits down with pastor, author, and Date Night Comedy Tour speaker Ted Cunningham to talk about the powerful role humor and playfulness can have in strengthening your relationship. With nearly 30 years of marriage experience, Ted shares why couples naturally laugh together early on but often lose that playfulness in the grind of everyday life, and how being intentional about laughter can help you reconnect. Ted explains that you do not have to be a comedian to bring humor into your marriage. Instead, it starts with learning to look for the funny in everyday moments, creating shared memories, and choosing playfulness over frustration. You will hear practical insights on timing, sensitivity, empathy, and how humor can help couples navigate stress, avoid unnecessary conflict, and build deeper emotional connection. Julie and Ted also talk about why comparison is dangerous, how shared humor is unique to every couple, and how remembering that your spouse is your companion, not your enemy, can change everything. If your marriage has started to feel more serious than joyful, this conversation will remind you how laughter, empathy, and intentional playfulness can bring life back into your relationship. Because often, it is the small, joyful moments you create daily that carry you through the hardest seasons.
