The New Yorker magazine isn’t all stodgy, high-minded stuff — and comedian Andy Borowitz is proof. We speak with the award-winning humorist about the presidential election and the endless material it has provided him.

Andy Borowitz speaks tonight at the University of Kansas in Lawrence as part of The Commons' Lecture Series. The event is sold out, but there’s an overflow room. For information, visit The Commons website.

When I host Up To Date each morning at 9, my aim is to engage the community in conversations about the Kansas City area’s challenges, hopes and opportunities. I try to ask the questions that listeners want answered about the day’s most pressing issues and provide a place for residents to engage directly with newsmakers.

Kansas City needs journalists who show up not just on people’s worst days, but on their best ones — and the boring ones in between. I build relationships across the metro, so our newsroom can bring you critical information when times are tough, and seek out moments of joy to celebrate. Email me at lisa@kcur.org.
