On part 2 of this week's episode, we interview Cartoonist, Tyson Cole.
Tyson is a fairly new contributor to the New Yorker, but his cartoons have been published in many other magazines such as Saturday Evening Post, Reader’s Digest, Yahoo!, The American Bystander, Weekly Humorist, the Funny Times, and the Cole Family Christmas Newsletter. He has been nominated for the Best Gag Cartoon Reuben's Award three times since 2019.
We talk with Tyson about him switching his career path from biologist to cartoonist and what being creative means to him. A fun and very thoughtful discussion.
