That's Not Funny, That's Sick is an American album of sketch comedy that was first released as a vinyl record in 1977. It was a spin-off from National Lampoon magazine. The album is a collection of sketches, several of which were taken from the National Lampoon Radio Hour, a radio show that was broadcast on 600 radio stations and ran from November 17, 1973 to December 28, 1974.

The sketches on That's Not Funny, That's Sick star John Belushi, Brian Doyle-Murray, Bill Murray, and Christopher Guest, and feature, among others, Richard Belzer.

In 2003, the full 27-track album was released on CD by Uproar Entertainment. In August, 2020, a "Digitally Remastered" version was released on YouTube and miscellaneous streaming services. The digital release shuffles the track order and omits one track, "Confession".
