How do I print this without quotation marks and brackets in Python?

Question

This is my code

keys = {"setup", "punchline"}

l = [{k:v for k, v in i.items() if k in keys} for i in response_dict]


print(json.dumps(l, indent=4, sort_keys=False))

    {
        "setup": "What's the best part about TCP jokes?",
        "punchline": "I get to keep telling them until you get them."
    },
    {
        "setup": "How many programmers does it take to change a lightbulb?",
        "punchline": "None that's a hardware problem"
    },
    {
        "setup": "What's the best thing about a Boolean?",
        "punchline": "Even if you're wrong, you're only off by a bit."

Deisred output setup: What's the best part about TCP jokes? punchline: I get to keep telling them until you get them.

do you want to print out the 'setup' and 'punchline' as well or just the sentences ? — Karan Shishoo

Please add more details in the question. How do you want your output to look like? — Shashank V

If you don't want quotation marks and brackets, what are you converting it to JSON for? Maybe... don't do that? — jonrsharpe

Welcome to StackOverflow!

Here are the ingredients which will help you to accomplish this task:

knowing how to access dictionary attributes by keys
print function
for loop to loop through the list l.

Think about how you would output a single joke in l[0]. What's inside of l[0]['setup'] and what's inside of l[0]['punchline']?
