We’ve got a couple of our favorite recent Bullseye interviews this week, first up: Margaret Cho, from last year. She’s made a career of searing and revealing comedy. Lately she’s been performing on the street to raise money for the homeless, marrying couples on stage, too. She also just launched a huge international tour of standup, called “Fresh off the Bloat.” It kicked off just last week in Scotland. Then, Lisa Hanawalt, the cartoonist and author. When she was a guest in 2016, she’d just released her book Hot Dog Taste Test. Hanawalt’s work is full of child like energy. She’s obsessed with animals and also animal-human hybrids. Hanawalt also produces and runs the visual elements of the hit Netflix animated show BoJack Horseman, where people and animals live together in a kind of weird, hyper-real Hollywood.
