These Are Jokes is the first CD/DVD set from American comedian Demetri Martin. Some of the jokes have previously appeared on his Comedy Central Presents special as well as his portion of the compilation Invite Them Up.

The attached DVD contains Martin's Comedy Central Presents special, a few of his jokes set to his animation, some short documentaries, some songs, and two very early performances.

The disc also features some of Martin's friends, including SNL cast member Will Forte (who appears in "Personal Information Waltz") and comedian Leo Allen (who appears in "These Jokes").

The album was certified gold by the RIAA in May 2009.
