On part 2 of this week's episode, we interview cartoonist Lynn Hsu. We talk with Lynn about her path from being an Architect to becoming a cartoonist and eventually making it into the New Yorker. We discuss her caption contest cartoons in both the New Yorker and CartoonStock contests. We also talk about our favorite cartoons she's created.

You can learn more about Lynn at her website:

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

The winning caption for New Yorker contest #862 (Political Theatre).

Finalists for contest #864 (Oh Deer, A Curtain Cull).

Current New Yorker contest #866 (I thought this bar would have more atmosphere).
