The Jollytologist® Sneak Preview Comes to 2026 AATH Conference in San Diego

SAN DIEGO - April 20, 2026 - PRLog -- San Diego, CA —In a world that could use a little more laughter, the 2026 AATH Conference is bringing a special sneak-preview screening of  The Jollytologist® to San Diego.

This isn't your typical documentary. It's a heartfelt, funny, and surprisingly moving look at how humor can help us survive life's toughest moments… and occasionally even enjoy them.

Join us Friday, May 15, 2026, at the DoubleTree by Hilton San Diego Bayside for an evening that just might change how you look at stress, setbacks, and the absurdity of being human.

The evening kicks off at 7:30 PM with opening remarks and the introduction of special guests, including Allen Klein (yes, the actual Jollytologist®), editor Jaime Ryan Heintz, and director Sky Bergman. The film follows, offering an exclusive early look at the PBS-bound documentary.

After the screening, stick around for a live Q&A. Bring your questions, your curiosity, and your sense of humor. (If you've misplaced it, Allen may help you find it.)

Open to both conference attendees and the public, this pre-screening invites everyone to experience a film that explores how laughter can shift perspective, lighten the load, and remind us that even in difficult moments, there is room for joy.

The Jollytologist® is already generating buzz for its uplifting storytelling and transforming lives with one  laugh and red nose at a time.
