Winning captions for New Yorker contest #902 (Egression Therapy). 

Finalists for contest #904 (Grazing the goat to the right). 

Current New Yorker contest #906 (This dive is for the birds). 

We also pick our favorite cartoons from the current issue (we all picked the same one as our favorite and due to the wording of the caption, we will need to have a mature listeners only warning for this part of the podcast).
