Episode 239 - Lawrence Wood

This is an off week for the New Yorker (double issue last week), but we do have Larry Wood joining us for our monthly discussion about the CartoonStock contest. We dive into our likes and dislikes about the captions selected as winners for that contest and talk about captions we liked that didn't make it into the finalists.In the first half of the podcast, we talk about the New Yorker contest in general and discuss the pros and cons of entering an obvious caption.You can order Larry's book, "Your Caption Has Been Selected: More Than Anyone Could Possibly Want to Know About The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest" here:   https://www.amazon.com/Your-Caption-Has-Been-Selected/dp/1250333407/You can watch the judging video of the recent CartoonStock contest here:https://youtu.be/ss69roKniyc?si=mhT2iWbYWYgi4cmeAnd read Larry's commentary on the CartoonStock contest here:https://www.cartoonstock.com/blog/bigfoot-and-reporters-caption-contest-commentary-with-lawrence-wood/You can purchase original New Yorker cartoon art from Curated Cartoons here: https://www.curatedcartoons.comSend us questions or comments to:  [email protected]
