“The Standard in American Immaturity” — weeklyhumorist.com ↗
Founded in 2017 by former National Lampoon creative director and Late Show With David Letterman staffer Marty Dundics, Weekly Humorist has been called a “gatekeeper of contemporary American humor” alongside The New Yorker and McSweeney’s — and it’s the magazine every other Humorist division grew out of.
A new digital issue lands every week, covering satire, cartoons, pop culture, lists, and short humor fiction — plus a print-style app edition, a Friday newsletter, and audio readings of published pieces.
