New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest Podcast

Episode 220 - David Gomberg

Vin Coca, Beth Lawler, Paul Nesja, Nicole Chrolavicius

Cartoonist, David Gomberg joins us on the second half of the podcast this week. David Started creating cartoons in 2019. In 2021, he started getting them published in Air Mail Weekly, Narrative Magazine, Wall Street Journal, The London Times, Alta Journal, American Bystander and Woman's World. The New Yorker has been elusive, but we think he'll get in there in the near future.
