A recording from Andrew Boryga and Leigh Stein's live video

In this conversation we dive into how each of us—noted satire authors—define the genre and the conventions that determine what qualifies and what doesn’t qualify as a satire. We also get into a bit of a debate around some of those qualifiers—namely, does a satire have to be funny?

Leigh made her case, Amran broke out the dictionary, I tried to play referee.

In any case, this was a great conversation, and I’m very thankful to the more than 100 people who tuned in on a Monday night to watch.

Enjoy!
