Jewish Humor Central is a daily publication to start your day with news of the Jewish world that's likely to produce a knowing smile and some Yiddishe nachas. It's also a collection of sources of Jewish humor--anything that brings a grin, chuckle, laugh, guffaw, or just a warm feeling to readers. Our posts include jokes, satire, books, music, films, videos, food, Unbelievable But True, and In the News. Some are new, and some are classics. We post every morning, Sunday through Friday. Enjoy!

Throwback Thursday Comedy Special: Red Buttons Gives NY Alumni Award to Fyvush Finkel
At the New York Alumni Association in 1998, Red Buttons presented an award to Fyvush Finkel in recognition of his many years on the Yiddish and Broadway stages.
During the evening, Buttons showed off his Hebrew and Yiddish (actually Japanese) singing abilities.
Finkel entertained the crowd with a solo performance of Tradition and If I Were a Rich Man from Fiddler on the Roof. He also sang I'm Glad I'm Not Young Anymore from Gigi.
Enjoy!
