On this week's episode, Vin, Paul, Beth, Nicole and this year's best captioner, Mark Strout, review past and present contests from 2024 and choose our best and worst of the year.  We also talk with Mark about how he started entering the caption contests and his process for coming up with winning captions.

And of course, we discuss...  
The winning captions for New Yorker contest #922 (Rodent you invite them up?)  
Finalists for contest #924 (Do androids dream of spreadsheets?) 
Current New Yorker contest #926 (Stand-up Consommé.)

Happy Holidays to all and good luck with your captions!
