Perfect Podcast for Serial Captionists

These guys are my new caption therapists! Love their witty discussion and opinions. I share my weekly New Yorker Cartoon Caption submissions on Insta @NEWYORKERCARTOONCONTEST by Winifred. The scientist working on a problem addressing someone entering the room. ‘I just figured out how to kill time.’

Enjoyable banter … but images aren’t described!

It’d be the best podcast ever if they’d remember that we can’t see the pictures; so they need to spend 5 seconds describing each drawing or it’s babble without context :( .

The Art of Humor

or is it the humor of art? Either way, this is a great podcast! I’ve been entering the New Yorker caption contest for years and have never seen my caption after I’ve entered it. Now here are three winners of the contest talking about their strategies and how they come up with their captions. You bet I’m going to listen to this. As a bonus, they talk to the New Yorker cartoonists that come up with the cartoons for the contest. Now that I think of it, you shouldn’t listen to this podcast, because I don’t need the competition!

Finally!

Finally a podcast about the Caption Contest! Definitely looking forward to tuning into future episodes.
