PODCAST: Sara Greenberger Rafferty
Artist Sara Greenberger Rafferty paid a visit to my kitchen this week to talk about her recent traveling survey “Gloves Off,” as well as childhood pranks, context and timing, television shows like Mr. Robot and Nathan for You, dissecting mainstream comedy, the influence of syndicated sitcoms on her Midwest sense of humor, making work that’s about being alienated without it being alienating, and her two-volume book project Women Aren’t Funny that we put out through Social Malpractice Publishing. This week’s episode is sponsored by holiday video messages from your family, cashiers who steal from their idiot bosses, Mark Cuban’s obvious erectile dysfunction, and the sinking of the bulk carrier SS Edmund Fitzgerald in Lake Superior on 10th November, 1975.
