Anytime you open your mouth there's going to be someone who's put off. I try to deal with that by keeping the topical portions of my show brief. I realize that some people wish my comments were briefer.
John Hall
I feel that I belong to the 19th century. Some composers' music is very topical. It almost says, 'This is about what I read in newspapers yesterday.' Not mine.
Gordon Getty
In a more intellectually rigorous age, I wouldn't be talked about as a satirist at all. I would just be a topical comedian.
Rory Bremner
It is in the nature of the New Yorker to be as topical as possible, on a level that is often small in scale and playful in intention.
Brendan Gill
Most important to any fake story is a plausible, realistic edge with a satirical twist that is topical.
Joey Skaggs
Of course, sometimes when you write personally, you are also writing about society, obliquely reflecting topical issues, but not in a way that people would expect you to or in the way that someone trying to make a point would.
Suzanne Vega
The comics that are just conversing with you up there and drawing on their own life, yeah, I guess so. I guess some do political humor, some do topical humor, but the ones that I like, the ones that are appealing to me, were guys who were just talking to you about their life.
