New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest Podcast

Episode 117 - Sara Lautman


Listen Later

On part 2 of this week's episode, we interview cartoonist Sara Lautman.  We ask Sara about the path she took to being a cartoonist, her early submissions to the New Yorker and her ability to come up with really great cartoons with long captions. She turns the tables on us and asks about how we got into submitting to the caption contests (Paul, Vin and Nicole Chrolavicius. Beth was unable to do the interview portion of the podcast). 

Sara also talks about her current project, A graphic novel titled "Jason". She is currently publishing chapters of it at:

Paul mentions the very informative website, A Case For Pencils, which can be found here:

On Part 1 of the episode, we discuss...    

The winning caption for New Yorker contest #855 (couple in their house with a road going through the room). 
  
Finalists for contest #857 (Giant ant on a plane. We have some harsh words for one of the captions). 

Current New Yorker contest #859 (Man at large chalkboard).
