Episode 144 - David Ostow

New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest Podcast

On part 2 of this week's episode, we interview cartoonist David Ostow. David tells us about how he became a New Yorker Cartoonist (by the usual route of becoming an Architect first) and his current gig as a stay-at-home dad.
We also talk about our favorite cartoons of his and end up talking about the proper storage of ketchup and butter (Dave reported back to us after the podcast that the butter was in the fridge and there was no sign of ketchup anywhere).
