David Sipress - WHAT'S SO FUNNY?

David and I discuss What's So Funny? A Cartoonist's Memoir, how he started creating cartoons for The New Yorker, using cartoons to process his emotions, how writing this book was cathartic and helped him better understand his parents, trying to connect to people through feelings, creating the cover, and much more.
David's recommended reads are:

The Pigeon Tunnel: Stories from My Life by John le Carre

Powers and Thrones: A New History of the Middle Ages by Dan Jones

Disappearing Earth by Julia Phillips

Bruno, Chief of Police series by Martin Walker
