United States2 years ago - 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.’

More than once you’ll think, wow, I didn’t know that. Next, you’ll be laughing out loud, while driving to work—a great distraction fro... more
Apple Podcasts5panthera.oncaUnited States2 years ago - 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 :( .
Apple Podcasts3Wwtttt1United States3 years ago - The Art of Humor

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... more
