THE (MAGAZINE) DOCTOR IS IN — Megan Schertler wants to help you make magazines. Yes, you … and you … and you too. But she also wants to ensure that once you make a magazine, you make another one. And then one after that. She wants to make sure that you know it's not easy to create a magazine or to run one or to publish a second one or to sustain a magazine or media brand or to run a business. Megan is big on print. She's one of those extremely rare people who's held down numerous magazine jobs while never working on the digital side of things. Yes, really. People like her exist. So she knows more than many her age that print is more engaging, produces more loyalty, and creates a deeper and more meaningful connection with the message on the page than any other medium. And so with her partners, Megan now helms In Real Life Media to help would-be magazine makers sure, but also some of the world's largest brands navigate the realities of the magazine world. Because while we all love print here, it's hard, it's expensive, and it is, quite frankly, a pain in the ass. But it also results in something glorious, and Megan travels the world speaking at conferences and to people like me to spread the word.. — This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press.

THE PRIME OF MR. NEVILLE BRODY — “Once you have broken down the rules, literally anything is possible.'” In the business of magazine design, few names resonate as profoundly as Neville Brody. And, to this day, he lives by those words.  Renowned for his groundbreaking work and commitment to pushing design boundaries at magazines like The Face, Arena, Per Lui, and others, Brody is a true auteur in the world of design. We talked to him at the launch of his spectacular new monograph, The Graphic Language of Neville Brody 3. Nurtured on 1970s British punk music, which rejected anything that appeared self-indulgent or overwrought, Brody found the perfect launch pad at The Face, the London-based music, fashion, and culture monthly, created by editor Nick Logan in 1980. The Face inspired an array of fellow magazine rule-breakers, including the late Tibor Kalman, David Carson, and Fabien Baron, who calls Brody's work “powerful, aggressive, and simple.” Since then, Brody's journey in graphic design has been marked by a relentless, almost unforgiving pursuit of innovation. His magazine design challenged conventional norms and redefined visual storytelling. Brody's design approach is characterized by a rejection of conventional grid systems and editorial hierarchies, and a willingness to break free from established design rules. And he thinks magazines today are missing a giant opportunity: “That's the beauty of print, that you can't achieve in the same way digitally. Digital is so commoditized. We're not expressing content anymore. We're just delivering it. Neville Brody's legacy in magazine design lies in his fearless approach to challenging the status quo and his ability to capture the zeitgeist of his time. By pushing the boundaries of traditional graphic design, he not only influenced the look and feel of magazines but also inspired a generation of designers to embrace innovation, experimentation, and a spirit of creative rebellion. Brody's work continues to be celebrated for its enduring impact on the evolution of graphic design and its role in shaping the visual language of contemporary media.

BAD BUNNY — Playboy is many things to quite a few people. We don't have to go into its history, but the thing you need to know is this: it's back. Yes, there will be photos of women in various stages of undress, and yes, there will be sharp writing from sharp minds. But mostly, the people behind it are going to try and build up the media brand, and that's important, because Playboy was arguably the first magazine that used its content at the center of a much larger and much more diverse brand ecosystem. The new editor-in-chief also comes with another title, Chief Brand Officer, which gives you an indication that these people aren't messing around. Philip Picardi has a long history in magazines and has also worked in brand. He's also gay, which honestly, I have some trouble saying here because it doesn't matter that he is. But when I tell my friends that the new editor-in-chief of Playboy, an heir to Hugh Hefner of all people, is gay, well, that raises an eyebrow. Because Playboy is a lot of things, but it's also a very male, very heterosexual brand. But what if I told you that some of the best writing coming out of Playboy now was being written by a cadre of hyper-talented young women, that Philip's boss used to work at National Geographic and Disney, or that Philip received his master's degree from the Harvard Divinity School? Should I keep going? Because I could. Just listen to our discussion. We're going to dispel some misconceptions and then some. — This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press.

THE INDUSTRY'S LITTLE SISTER — In early April, what's left of the magazine industry gathered at Terminal 5 to see who would win this year's National Magazine Awards—the ASMEs. Throughout the evening, the usual suspects stepped up to accept their Alexander Calder brass elephants—the ‘Ellies'—on behalf of their teams at The Atlantic, New York, and The New York Times Magazine.  Then came the award for General Excellence, Service and Lifestyle—a category that covers every food, fashion, and fitness magazine in the business. And the Ellie went to… content juggernaut Highsnobiety—a sneaker blog-turned-cool kid media amalgam that encompasses a twice-annual $20-per-issue print magazine, plus a flood of social media, a website that is also an e-commerce platform, and a creative agency that does 360-degree marketing and storytelling for brands. Before the crowd could start scratching their graying heads, a Billie Eilish lookalike in a gray Thom Brown skirt-and-pant suit took to the dais. There were plenty of people in that room who had never given Highsnobiety much, if any, thought.  But in that moment, this woman, Willa Bennett, Highsnobiety's 30-year-old editor-in-chief, had officially become a force to be reckoned with. Not only that, but Highsnobiety's business model, which bends rules that had long been sacrosanct in magazine journalism, suddenly appeared to have won the seal of approval from the oldest of the old guard.   The post at Highsnobiety was a major leap for Bennett. Just two years ago, she was the social media manager at GQ. Our friends who worked with her there tell us they thought of her as “the industry's little sister”—hungry, passionate, and looking to translate the magic of magazines to a new generation. They said that even though she's disrupting the magazine as we once knew it, at heart Bennett is a “a magazine junkie who really venerates  the old ways.”  And now the surprise win has put her in the spotlight of the establishment media, with The New York Times Styles running a portrait of Bennett in her signature suit-and-tie look on its cover. The win inspired a segment on the Slate Culture Gabfest in which the hosts pondered, “What Is a Magazine Now?” Over in Spreadlandia, we thought, Why not turn that question directly to Willa Bennett herself? In the end, this conversation left us feeling more optimistic than usual about the future of media. It also made us feel old as shit. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did. — This episode is a special collboration with our friends at The Spread and is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type, and Freeport Press.

Break/Fix Podcast interviews author Jesse Fresco about his pulpy, fast-paced novella Drive Like Hell and the expanding Autumn Frost series, including upcoming sequels Black and Blue (set in Baltimore) and Funland Fury. Fresco discusses his background in the film industry and stagehand work, how writing became his escape, and his inspirations for characters, pacing, and car-centric action while keeping rules like having Autumn drive most of the time and never fire a gun. The conversation also covers his longer, more personal sci-fi novel Skyhawk, inspired by the NES game Captain Skyhawk, his choice of relatable “used future” worldbuilding, and plans for a seven-book arc, plus his self-publishing experience via Ingram-Spark, audiobook plans, and a new AI-themed sci-fi project. ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== 00:00 Jesse Fresco's Origins 03:19 Film Industry Burnout & Becoming a Writer 06:21 Who is Autumn Frost? 09:05 Writing Fast Novellas 12:03 Future Books and Villains 13:57 Cars and Chase Craft 20:35 Switching to Skyhawk 24:24 Worldbuilding Choices & Relatable Future Tech 31:18 New AI Film Novel 33:36 Advice For Authors and the Self Publishing Reality 37:24 Audiobook Plans 38:46 Covers, Fonts, and Pricing 40:50 Wrap Up And Credits ==================== The Motoring Podcast Network : Years of racing, wrenching and Motorsports experience brings together a top notch collection of knowledge, stories and information. #everyonehasastory #gtmbreakfix - motoringpodcast.net More Information: Visit Our Website Become a VIP at: Patreon Online Magazine: Gran Touring Follow us on Social: Instagram

ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST — Where do magazine designers go after all the magazines are gone? That's a question we've often pondered in recent years. Well, if you've been paying close attention, you'd probably guess, as it turns out, a lot of them go to Cupertino. And much of this migration can be traced to 2014, when today's guest, AIGA Medalist and Emmy award-winning creative director Arem Duplessis, left his storied job at The New York Times Magazine to go to work at Apple. You might be asking yourself, "Why would one of America's most high-profile magazine designers leave a coveted job at an iconic publication—one that brought him global recognition, countless awards, and deep creative satisfaction—for a famously secretive company known, well, for locking away its talent in a vault of non-disclosure agreements?" But the better question might be, "Why wouldn't he?" Duplessis is arguably one of the most influential creative directors of his time. His ten years of covers for The New York Times Magazine shaped its vision and identity. As creative director at GQ, he helped create the now-ubiquitous Gotham family of fonts. And he's blazed the trail for print designers in search of digital futures. While the departure of big-name magazine designers like Rem to Silicon Valley may strike fear in some, it reaffirms what many of us have long known: Despite years of slumping newsstand sales and magazine closures, the all-purpose skills of elite creative directors are still very much in demand. As former ESPN creative director Neil Jamieson says, “Why wouldn't Apple be hiring magazine designers? No category of designer is more multifaceted. Beyond the fundamentals, they do branding, packaging, identity, storytelling. They have experience on set, with video, social, and short-form storytelling.” There's no question there's a dire need in the corporate field for these kinds of skills. The question that remains unanswered, so far, is: Can that kind of digital work ever deliver the same creative fulfillment that magazines do? We talked to Duplessis about learning to scuba dive in his Dad's Virginia quarry, the modeling career that wasn't, cutting his teeth at the controversial hip-hop magazine, Blaze, adapting to life on the West Coast, and what he's planning for life after work. — THIS EPISODE IS MADE POSSIBLE BY OUR FRIENDS AT COMMERCIAL TYPE AND FREEPORT PRESS.

CHECK, PLEASE — Thanks for tuning in. Just a note before we get going: This is the 50th episode of The Full Bleed, and I, along with the team here at Magazeum, truly appreciate the time you spend with us. Waiting is what I consider a perfect magazine. Not because of its design or the writing, though both are stellar. But mostly because it functions as a closed loop. How? The subject and the audience are one and the same. Waiting, you see, is a magazine about creatives in New York's service industry. And it is a magazine for creatives in New York's service industry. That's a neat trick and also makes me wonder why no one had done this before founder, editor-in-chief, and complete magazine neophyte Adele Blanton hit upon the idea. Adele has done the math: 10 percent of the estimated 700,000 people working in the food and beverage industry in New York are artists of some kind. Artists, actors, writers, dancers. You name it. And that number is a healthy baseline for any publication. Waiting has published three well-received issues and now she and the team behind it has to figure out how to maintain and grow the media. That's one of the many things we talk about on the show. Did we tell you this is our 50th episode? Because it's our 50th episode. — This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press.

Episodio: 287 El problema de la IA no es tecnológico. Es de mentalidad.La mayoría de las organizaciones llevan meses experimentando con inteligencia artificial sin encontrar el retorno esperado. No porque la tecnología falle, sino porque siguen aplicando herramientas nuevas con formas de pensar antiguas.En el último episodio de tatxe.org hablé con Giovanni Juliao, fundador de Agentsy Pro, sobre algo que cambia el enfoque por completo: convertir el conocimiento experto de un consultor, formador o coach en experiencias de IA diseñadas con su propia metodología, sus propios límites y un propósito claro.El caso de Núria Fonts, de ONA Mind, lo ilustra perfectamente. Sus clientes siguen interactuando con su conocimiento después del proceso formativo. Y ella, por primera vez, puede ver dónde están las lagunas, qué genera fricción, qué necesita mejorar. Eso no es soporte. Es inteligencia sobre tu propio proceso.La conclusión es poderosa: el valor real de la IA no está en el algoritmo. Está en el conocimiento que pones dentro y en la claridad de para quién lo diseñas.La IA no cambia esa ecuación. La amplifica.

Send us Fan MailToday's guest is Elliot Jay Stocks, designer and author, known in typographic circles for his work as the co-creator of Google Fonts Knowledge, founder of 8 Faces magazine, and creative director of Typekit (now known as Adobe Fonts). In this conversation, you'll hear why Elliot wanted to make his new book (Fine Specimens) and what it contains. You'll hear just how small the type design world actually is (Hi Jamie! Hi Mark!), as well as Elliot's take on traditional type classification systems. He explains why he chose to integrate non-Latin typography throughout the book (versus it living in a separate section) and where type designers who want to expand into multiple new, unfamiliar scripts can start to think about collaborating with other foundries. Finally, Elliot shares his advice for designers creating specimens today—what to keep and what to consider reinventing. Let's Connect on the web or via Instagram. :)

THE INTERNET WILL NOT BE TELEVISED — The tech industry is easy to dislike, admire, ridicule, resent, need, and all of the above. Look, this podcast doesn't exist without tech. But there is also no "enshittification" without tech. Coined by writer Cory Doctorow that word has entered the general lexicon with a speed and ubiquity that might make someone like, I don't know, Shakespeare envious. If he knew what was going on. Which he doesn't. All of this to introduce InFormation, a magazine about tech, but more importantly, a magazine about “what tech is doing to us.” The people behind it work in the industry and so understand it, which makes them dislike it even more. Twenty-five years ago, InFormation was like the Spy magazine of the dot com boom, a bit of a kick in the pants to an industry and a group of people who saw themselves in utopian if not messianic terms. And while they might still see themselves that way (spoiler alert: they most certainly do), a lot of people in the world do not, and so InFormation is back, it has reformed, and is being published again, with the same attitude, that is it continues to kick ass but with more feeling, because Silicon Valley is no longer a place but a mindset, techbros are a thing and a wealthy thing at that, and, well, there's a general feeling that the world has been thoroughly colonized and completely enshittified. — This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press.

Send us Fan MailThis is the third episode in a 4-part guest lecture series, speaking with an incredible range of design and typography pros from across North America! In this eye opening look into the history of typography, signage, protest, and histories, Tré Seals thoughtfully explains the ways in which type has caused a lot of harm to various communities, but the ways in which it's also a hopeful gateway to make meaningful change. You'll hear Tré's origin story, back to his early childhood learning cursive and calligraphy, as well as the incredible family artifact that's been translated into a font for broader audiences. You'll hear how he uses historical references and deep research as the foundation of much of his work at Vocal Type. Tré shares examples of what “diversifying design” really means, as well as the systemic barriers that perpetuate in the type design world. This episode was recorded as part of a guest lecture series in GCM 806 - Advanced Typography in Winter 2026 at The Creative School at Toronto Metropolitan University. Let's Connect on the web or via Instagram. :)

SUNANDBASS Recordings proudly presents its next release, welcoming a new talent to the label: Fonts from Tokyo, Japan, with a brand new single, All Good, Alright? / Hold On Me. This release marks another exciting addition to the SUNANDBASS Recordings catalogue, bringing a fresh sound and a continued forward-thinking approach. With previous releases on Integral and Halogenix's Gemini, Fonts has quickly been making a name for himself with his techy yet soulful productions, and we're very excited to present his next release as he joins the SUNANDBASS family. Fonts played at our label party in Tokyo with the Human Elements crew. That performance and time spent together sparked the relationship with the artist, and now we're proud to present this transnational talent with his brand new single. On the A-side, All Good, Alright? showcases Fonts's signature soulful style in full dancefloor form, lush pads and techy synth patches cutting through crisp drums and mesmerising vocal sampling. The track channels the spirit of La Cinta beach in Sardinia: open-air, euphoric, and alive, without ever losing the introspective musicality that defines his compositional voice. It speaks to Fonts's ability to compose deeply expressive music that also moves a crowd. Hold On Me takes the release into deeper territory, where Fonts's classical training becomes the foundation rather than the background. Growing up immersed in classical music, and drawing on the textural, emotionally layered world of Studio Ghibli soundtracks, he weaves these influences, Western and Japanese, formal and filmic, into something distinctly his own. Thoughtfully crafted drum arrangements and signature vocal chops ground it firmly in drum & bass, while the emotional architecture reaches far beyond it. We're honoured to welcome Fonts to the SUNANDBASS Recordings family, an artist whose sound reflects our love for all corners of the genre while paying homage to the music that brings us together in Sardinia year after year. SUNANDBASS Recordings continues to push the boundaries of drum & bass, fostering connection through music that transcends borders, unites listeners, and celebrates rhythm, movement, and culture.

REALITY BITES —  I am Gen X. I'm telling you this because, well, this is hardly something that is ever relevant to any conversation when, in fact, it is also always relevant to everything. But I just don't talk about it because who cares when I was born, or that we Gen Xers all live in the long and darkest of dark shadow of Boomers, or the loud echo of Millennials, or the annoyingly brash and unknowing living of whatever the other younger generations are called. I'm Gen X, and I just know one thing: there are more of you than there are of me, and there always have been. I'm saying all this because today we're gonna talk about Geezer magazine, as if any Gen X-er in their right mind would ever call themselves a geezer, because that's Boomer stuff. And hey, did you see we're turning 60? For fuck's sake. As if. So yes, Geezer, a magazine by and for Gen X that is both completely irreverent and surprisingly serious and even tender, that balances nostalgia with irony. And while Gen X's favorite word might be whatever, the secret is we care what you think. We always have. You just have to first extract a whole lot of other stuff, that cold exterior built up as a defense mechanism against a world that is stupid, and that for whatever reason the Boomers keep running. Meaning sure, we like to say never mind, but we also sang “Don't You Want Me” and “Debaser.” So just take a chill pill. I promise we'll talk about a rad magazine on today's show.. — This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

THE MAGAZINE'S THE THING — When you chat with a filmmaker who has become a magazine editor you start to note the parallels between filmmaking and magazine making that you never considered before. Ok, that I hadn't considered before. The relationship between editors and art directors, and the relationship between a director and cinematographer, well, that's actually almost the same thing. Editors and writers. Editors and actors. Copy editors and film editors. On and on. It's uncanny. Seen is a magazine about the art of film and filmmaking that comes from BlackStar Projects, home of an annual film festival in Philadelphia and a creative space that “uplifts the work of Black, Brown and Indigenous artists.” Seen grew out of the program notes for the festival and it is everything cinema magazines used to be: thorough, intellectually stimulating, challenging.  Heidi Saman, the editor, trained as a film maker and then worked at Fresh Air for over a decade. She doesn't come from the magazine world. But she's a storyteller. And after you listen to our chat, you, too, will see, perhaps, that making a magazine is a lot like making a movie. — This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press.

THE JOY OF READING — Newspapers are in trouble and that's not news to you. Print is expensive, the ads moved to Facebook and Google, the classifieds bled over to Craigslist. You know all this. So, hats off to the newspapers that succeed today. And the ones that do, the big ones, the legacy media, have a surprising thing in common: magazines. The New York Times. The Times of London. Le Monde. Germany. Italy. All over Asia. A lot of them produce print magazines as editorial add ons, supplements, not just for reader loyalty and engagement, but as a way to expand inventory for advertisers and a way to diversify business and the brand. That's what The Guardian newspaper is doing and, being The Guardian, they are also doing it differently than their competitive set. How? By taking an existing feature of the newspaper, The Long Read, and reproducing their favorites in a stand alone magazine. A kind of greatest hits package if you will. Well designed. Very printy. Heavy stock. Debossed covers. So why do it? Who benefits? What is the business rationale behind it? To answer those questions, I spoke to David Wolf, the editor of The Long Read, the section and the magazine, about these topics and, mostly, about the joys of immersive storytelling, the state of journalism today, and the absolute joy of long reads in a world of shortened attention spans and general slop. — This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press.

AN ART BAR FOR EVERYONE — ArtBar is the perfect name for ArtBar magazine and that's not always the case with the names of magazines. Founded by photographer and filmmaker Sarah Ingram in LA, ArtBar is like a dive bar for artists and their art. It's democratic in its tastes, and wide in its scope. And fun. Sarah wanted to hang with artists and so she created a space for them. Literally. From a recent editorial: "Art Bar is a hole in the wall where the graffiti artists, punks and poets, filmmakers, philosophers, painters, photographers, musicians, and wild-eyed creatures find themselves at the end of the day to tell our stories and share our work." So. A dive bar. And that bar was going to be in print. And she wanted to get the magazine in your hands no matter where you lived. ArtBar is widely distributed, available on newsstands, and seeks more. Sarah wants to create a community, of course, all editors do, but she also wants to create a community of indie magazine folk. She wants to break things and rules and invite like-minds to her art bar and hang out and see some cool stuff and do some cool things. Think I'm taking the dive bar thing too far? Here's that editorial again: "We wanted to foster a place to gather, a common ground to share the stories of our human experiences and how they shape our work. This is a place where we can break things, break rules, get our hands dirty." I wasn't joking. I may joke about a lot of things but not about a magazine set up like a dive bar for artists. Are you kidding? Doesn't this sound like a place you might want to hang for a bit? Can you tell I love dive bars? — This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press.

Let's talk about branding – but not the fluffy Pinterest version. Forget logos, fonts, and color palettes for a second (even though we love those things). Your brand is the feeling people get when they interact with your business. It's the experience, the expectation, the identity they associate with YOU. And if you're trying to attract better clients, bigger budgets, and create work that actually inspires you? Your brand needs to support that vision. In this episode, Jeni breaks down the three pillars of a strong brand that will help you stop attracting random inquiries and start magnetizing the dream clients who value (and can afford) your work. Plus, she gets real about why being the CEO means setting boundaries – even if it means telling clients to F off when they don't respect your values.KEY TAKEAWAYS:• Branding isn't logos & colors – It's the FEELING when someone interacts with your business (the experience, the expectation, the identity)• Your design signature matters – Does your Instagram look cohesive or like "random shit"? If your feed is all over the place (rustic barn + tropical + boho + modern), you don't have a brand• Pillar 1: Visual Consistency – Your aesthetic = your signature. People should look at your work and instantly know it's yours• Pillar 2: Your Voice – How you communicate your value matters. Stop using words like "affordable" and "budget" if you want luxury clients• Pillar 3: Client Experience – Are you organized? A clear communicator? Or a hot mess tornado? Your process IS your brand• Set boundaries like a CEO – You dictate your business (hello, no evening appointments unless absolutely necessary). If clients don't respect your values, they're not YOUR client• You're the boss, not them – Lead the experience, lead the conversation. Stop letting entitled customers run your business• Building a portfolio is expensive AF – Styled shoots cost serious money (flowers, linens, models, the list goes on)• Bottom line: Your brand needs to support the income you want. No strong brand = struggle to attract better clients & bigger budgetsWant Help Elevating Your Business?Two ways to work with Jen:

THE MAGAZINE OF THE MONTH CLUB — One of the things I've learned while hosting this podcast is that there are a lot of magazines out there. More than I imagined. Meaning there was never a “death of the magazine,” simply a realignment of dollars and attention. If anything, there are more magazines being published than ever.  But, and it's a big but, they are harder and harder to find. There are fewer magazine stores. There are almost no newsstands, at least in North America. And bookstores, well, ok, go to your local bookstore and good luck. Which brings us to Steve Watson. He worked in the industry and he lived what was happening to it. And so he created Stack which is, essentially, a discovery system. Or a club. Call it The Magazine of the Month Club. Join it and you receive random independent magazines from around the world, chosen by Steve—or curated, let's use the word—curated by Steve, and if you like the magazine, great, go out and subscribe to it, and you've just expanded your world.  I asked Steve about the changes in the industry, how he builds community and what the future of magazines might be. He's an optimist. And that makes me feel good about things. — This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

Despite what we're told, websites are not obsolete. Curators still look at them. Gallerists still look at them. Collectors still look at them. Commissioners still look at them.  Quietly. Carefully. Often before they ever contact you. Your website is where people go when they're deciding whether to take you seriously. Social media shows momentum. Websites show coherence. If your website feels overwhelming, messy, neglected, or like a project you keep putting off, that doesn't mean you're behind. It usually means you've skipped a step.   Most artists jump straight to design. Templates. Platforms. Fonts. Colours. And they do it before they've made the harder, quieter decisions. What actually belongs on here? What am I ready to stand behind? What story am I telling now, not five years ago?  So, today´s episode isn't about redesigning your website. It's about preparing for it.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Artist websites still matter - curators, gallerists, commissioners, and collectors actually use them.  Your website isn't dead. It's quietly doing its job when the right people are paying attention. Your website is not a performance space, but a catalogue of your strongest thinking. It is not an archive. This is a selection of your best work - If someone only ever saw this work, they should understand the kind of artist you are. I don't want anyone landing on your site and thinking, well, now what? So, decide before you design how people can connect with you. This episode is about deciding what needs to be included on your site. The next one is about shaping. BEST MOMENTS “Ask yourself something important - if someone only saw these pieces, would they understand what kind of artist I am?” “Have a portrait image of yourself, ideally in your studio or somewhere that feels human. Smiley helps, warm helps, approachable helps. People want to know who they're connecting with. They don't need mystery here.” “A blank contact page with just an email address or an Instagram handle doesn't feel welcoming. It feels like a closed door.” PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

NO RESERVATIONS — Welcome to a new season of The Full Bleed. This year, we're going to be talking to makers and creators, of course, but also more about the business of magazines. Because, let's face it, making a magazine is not easy. It never has been. But we're seeing more and more magazines—in print—out in the world and there's a reason for that. At a time where the digital world is a messy place, and that's being polite, magazines are perfectly positioned as a part of an “analog” wave that is going to become more and more important in the media and in marketing.  We open the season with Nathan Thornburgh from Roads & Kingdoms, a media brand that started out as a media brand—stay with me here—with the support of Anthony Bourdain, yes, that one, and then pivoted to becoming a kind of gastronomic tour company with loads of content on their website, and has now published their first magazine. And it won't be their last. Travel, especially these days, is pure analog, a completely human experience. It touches the senses in a way not many things can. Think about Anthony Bourdain's work and you think of how immersed he was everywhere he went. Whether he was writing about the reality of a kitchen or filming a meal of noodles at a roadside stand in Thailand, he was all in. His was a very human-centered media, full of sights and smells and sounds and people. And that's what Roads & Kingdoms will try and replicate. On the page. On every page. — This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

THE VIEW FROM THE WINDOW SEAT—Despite its name, Direction of Travel is not a travel magazine. Sure, it's a celebration of a certain kind of travel, but this is not a publication that takes you somewhere. Unless you think of Air World as a destination. Which I do.Founder Christian Nolle is an AvGeek. Which is not an insult. More an acknowledgement of a state of mind. Christian loves all things aviation. And mostly he loves how it looks and feels and, perhaps more importantly, how it looked and felt.Direction of Travel is a loving homage to route maps, in-flight entertainment, ticket offices, and airports. It is a magazine about the culture of flight and the aesthetics one finds in Air World. And for anyone with even the slightest interest in flight, it is a glorious—and loving—celebration of that world.Regular listeners of this podcast may have noticed that I've been speaking to quite a few people from travel magazines recently, and there are reasons for that. One could argue that no other type of magazine has had to weather such a variety of competition from the digital space. And travel itself is subject to forces that have nothing to do with travel itself. But it remains aspirational even to those lucky enough to travel often.So whether you're a frequent flying business person, or someone who might fly once in a while, the magic of lift off—and touch down—remains.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press.

WHEN EUSTACE MET FRANÇOISE— I first met Françoise Mouly at The New Yorker's old Times Square offices. This was way back when artists used to deliver illustrations in person. I had stopped by to turn in a spot drawing and was introduced to Françoise, their newly-minted cover art editor.I should have been intimidated, but I was fresh off the boat from Canada and deeply ensconced in my own bubble—hockey, baseball, Leonard Cohen—and so not yet aware of her groundbreaking work at Raw magazine.Much time has passed since that fortuitous day and I've thankfully caught up with her ouevre—gonna get as many French words into this as I can—through back issues of Raw and TOON Books. But mostly with The New Yorker, where we have worked together for over 30 years and I've been afforded a front-row seat to witness her mode du travail, her nonpareil mélange of visual storytelling skills.Speaking just from my own experience, I can't tell you how many times at the end of a harsh deadline I've handed in a desperate, incoherent mess of watercolor and ink, only to see the published product a day later magically made whole, readable, and aesthetically pleasing.Because Françoise prefers her artists to get the credit, I assume she won't want me mentioning the many times she rescued my images from floundering. I can remember apologetically submitting caricatures with poor likenesses, which she somehow managed to fix with a little digital manipulation—a hairline move forward here, a nose sharpened there. Or ideas that mostly worked turned on their head—with the artist's permission, of course—to suddenly drive the point all the way home.For Françoise, “the point” is always the point. Beautiful pictures are fine, but what does the image say? Françoise maintains a wide circle of devoted contributing artists—from renowned gallery painters to scribbling cartoonists, and all gradations between—from whom she regularly coaxes their best work. I thank my étoiles chanceuses to be part of that group.And now, an interview with Françoise. Apparently. —Barry Blitt—This episode is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type and Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

A 5-STAR MAGAZINE (DO NOT DISTURB)—Orlando is the magazine as hotel, quite literally—we'll explain what that means in a bit—a magazine that one can inhabit and live in, a love letter to culture in the most expansive use of the word. It's also very Italian. Maybe because it comes from Italy. More specifically, from the mind of Antonella Dellepiane Pescetto, who is Italian. But more importantly, she is someone with exquisite taste.And, yes, the magazine is set up as a hotel. Just go to the table of contents and you start to see how this concept works. Or visit the website, it's obvious there, too Ad the concept structures all various—and sometime disparate—ideas that go into the making of Orlando.And if you visit the website, again, you'll find courses and tours and podcasts and a Spotify playlist to accompany each story in each issue as well as a boutique, and you can sense the publishing plans as well. But mostly you'll find yourself in a charming confection of a magazine, kind of like something Wes Anderson might have come up with had he been Italian, which might work for you, or not—not everyone loves Wes Anderson, sure—but just like you know a Wes Anderson movie when you see or hear one, once you enter the hotel that is Orlando, you know. You just do. And it's the kind of place you can get comfortable in very easily.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

Brad and Dan return to unpack another week of chaos, contradictions, and creeping authoritarianism in American politics. They open with what seems like a small story but carries outsized symbolic weight: the State Department's decision to ditch Calibri and return to Times New Roman. It's a font change driven not by aesthetics but by politics, revealing how the Trump administration is using even bureaucratic details to signal exclusion, target accessibility, and roll back DEI efforts. What looks trivial becomes a window into the deeper logic of authoritarian control. From there, the conversation widens to the issues shaping the country's political landscape. Brad and Dan examine ICE's ever expanding budget, the ongoing manipulation of the election system through voter roll purges and gerrymandering, and a string of contentious congressional hearings, including Kristi Noem's abrupt walkout and the FBI's admission that it cannot define Antifa as a coherent organizational threat. They also discuss Trump's increasingly explicit racist and misogynistic rhetoric and the striking silence from GOP leaders who once claimed to stand for democratic norms. Despite the bleak headlines, Brad and Dan highlight signs that Trump's influence may be eroding. They point to GOP resistance emerging in places like Indiana, rumblings of discontent within the Heritage Foundation, and encouraging gains for Democrats in state legislatures and mayoral races. But they also wrestle with the central tension of the moment: does Trump's declining popularity matter if structural control continues to consolidate beneath him. Can the MAGA movement build enduring institutions, or is it fundamentally a brittle coalition held together by grievance and spectacle.
