ONE CITY AT A TIME—There are two kinds of travelers. The first group are those that need to see as many attractions as they can. The second are those that would rather wander around, get a feel for the place they're visiting, and live as much like a local as possible. Neither is better. There's no judgement here. But the people who are behind the bi-annual Fare Magazine are definitely of the latter group.Founded almost ten years ago, each issue of Fare explores a single city, using food as an entry point to talk to locals and tell stories that you won't find in your typical guidebook. You do not read Fare to find lists of must try restaurants. You read it to meet the people that make a city worth living in and worth visiting. You will learn something. And, maybe, this city will go on your list of places to visit. Going from city to city is, of course, not the easiest way to make a magazine, but ten years in, Fare is still going strong, and the business is growing to include new titles and new offers. It's a big world. And I get the sense Fare is going to keep wandering it, meeting the people who make every city taste better.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press.

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.

A MODERN MAGAZINE EDITOR IN A POST-MAGAZINE WORLD—In the media storm that is 2025, the person you want captaining your ship is smart, decisive, and cool, calm, and collected—in other words, she's Nikki Ogunnaike.The editor-in-chief of Marie Claire, whom we got to know when we worked together at Elle, is the very model of a modern magazine editor, in that—unlike the lifers of old—she hopscotched through a ton of jobs, accruing skills as a writer, a fashion editor, a digital editor and a print editor, and, oh yeah, a social-media savvy multi-platform operator—to become what she is now: someone uniquely equipped to lead a new era of Marie Claire.We talked to Nikki about what it's like to run a modern media brand in a post-magazine world—what does the job of “magazine editor” even mean now? Also: how is the post-Hearst Marie Claire evolving to meet a new reader, or should we say “follower,” and which parts of its original DNA Nikki is working to preserve. Also: Is the “girlboss” back?—This episode is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type and Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

Talking Tim Poll shooting, Rubio going back to Times New Roman, Weed making you sick and more. We will have steven back on Next episode and have him call in.

TOMORROW. THE RETURN OF SERIF.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has ordered diplomatic correspondence to stop using the Calibri font and return to the more traditional Times New Roman, reversing a shift by Joe Biden's administration to the less formal typeface, which Mr Rubio called “...wasteful, confusing and unbefitting the dignity of US government documents”.Should we care about the fonts we use?Joining Ciara Doherty to discuss is Saoirse Hanley, Features Writer with the Irish Independent and Red FM's Eimear Hallahan.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has ordered diplomats to start using the Times New Roman font again, reversing a change made under the previous administration. Rubio's predecessor, Antony Blinken, made the switch to Calibri in 2023, saying it was more accessible for people with visual disabilities - a change Rubio labelled 'wasteful'. Monolith typeface designer Alistair McCready says Calibri's more suited to readers by design, but it depends on the individual. "There's all sorts of things that go into reading, not just the way you see or how clearly you can see - it's how you interpret letters and shapes."

THE PURPOSE OF TRAVEL—The world is adrift in travel magazines that tell you to go here and stay there, to order certain foods at “of-the-moment” restaurants. And when you go to these places you find yourself surrounded by other travelers like you, and the only locals you interact with are, maybe, the waiter, or your Airbnb host, or the tour guide taking you on a generic definitely-not-what-the-locals-do tour of the trendiest neighborhood in town. Or you might not even meet a local. Or ever stop looking at the screen on your phone.You will have ticked items off your travel bucket list, but will you have actually traveled? Travel becomes consumption and as with all manner of consumption, you are never quite sated, and hey, there's a media ecosystem out there to help you along.And then there's Ori. Founded by journalist Kade Krichko, Ori bills itself as a “travel, art and education platform” that allows local storytellers to tell their stories on a global scale. It is a magazine that understands travel is an experience first and foremost, and that traveling well means an immersion into people and places, an opportunity to grow and to heal.It's a magazine that assumes you should think about and experience the world around you, and that if you think about it and experience it enough, the world becomes a more interconnected and better place; it becomes a place of wonder.And isn't that why we travel?—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press.

PART OF THE STORY—Susan Casey has won National Magazine Awards for editing, writing, and design—a feat that may well be unprecedented in the industry's history.In her native Canada, they call people like this “Wayne Gretzky.”She has worked—under various titles—for the following magazines: The Globe & Mail, Outside, Time, Esquire, eCompany, Business 2.0, Sports Illustrated Women, National Geographic, Fortune, and O, The Oprah Magazine. She also worked for the iconic 1990s fashion brand Esprit. These days—literally on any given day—you're likely to find Casey in the water, where she spent much of her childhood, later with the swim team at the University of Arizona, and, as an adult, as the author of four immersive books—all best sellers—about the ocean: The Wave: In Pursuit of the Rogues, Freaks, and Giants of the Ocean; The Devil's Teeth: A True Story of Obsession and Survival Among America's Great White Sharks; Voices in the Ocean: A Journey Into the Wild and Haunting World of Dolphins; and her most recent, The Underworld: Journeys to the Depths of the Ocean.A self-proclaimed “outspoken designer” early in her career, she refused to accept the career path limits others imposed and instead laid the groundwork for a rich creative life.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type and Freeport Press.

FOOD IS FOR EVERYONE—That meal your grandmother always cooked. Or your mother. Or your father, for that matter. The odors that permeated a kitchen or the entire house. The first taste. The idea of comfort food.So much of who we are and what we remember are about food, sure, but also about place, and most definitely about the person doing the cooking.While many food magazines go beyond food to create the context about the recipes they print, writer and editor Kyle Yoshioka felt they lacked the backstories that make food about more than taste or trends or wine accompaniments. And with no experience in the form, he was part of a team in Portland, Oregon that decided to launch Provecho, a magazine all about the backstories, and especially the culture and communities, behind each and every ingredient that goes into each and every lovingly created dish. And without a single recipe.Provecho, then, is not really a food magazine at all, but a cultural review that uses food as a focal point. It's anthropology that tastes good. One that is, in its own way, creating a community all its own.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

Picasso once said, “Good artists copy, great artists steal.” It wasn't just a quote, it was a warning. Because every great designer, from Rand to Scher to Draplin, has stolen their way to mastery. The only difference is that they knew how to do it right.Here's what most designers don't want to admit... we all steal. Fonts, layouts, grids, styles, everything you create is built on someone else's foundation. The problem isn't theft. The problem is that too many designers steal without understanding what they're taking. Lazy designers copy the surface. Great designers steal the soul.This week, on The Angry Designer Podcast, we dive into the controversial art of creative theft, and why it's not a crime but a craft. From dissecting the difference between imitation and transformation to learning how to absorb influences like a pro, we're showing you how to steal smarter and design better.In this episode, you'll discover:-The unspoken rules of creative theft every designer needs to know- Why copying can be the fastest way to build mastery- How to transform influence into something that's undeniably yoursDesign education isn't about learning to being original. It's about understanding what came before you and how to make it yours. You can keep pretending your work came from thin air, or you can embrace the truth: the best designers are thieves with taste, intent, and vision.Stay Angry our Friends –––––––––––Join Anger Management for Designers Newsletter at https://tinyurl.com/mr4bb4j3Want to see more?

Home to Allan and his company, Software Strategy Ltd. Let him take up the story:Once upon a time I was a programmer, people I worked with thought I was quite a good one. I was part of a team building a hand-held PC, which was a big deal in 1991. I worked on electricity modelling, I wrote programs for railway timetables, software for banks and real-time data feeds for Reuters. I built secure e-mail systems and mobile phone network diagnostic tools.The code was not the problem, the problem was the way the team was set up, the problem was the way we were asked to work, or the way work reached us. To fix that problem I needed to become a manager… but I didn't want to be a foolish manager like all the ones I'd worked for before, so I got myself a management qualification. And while I was getting that qualification, I discovered that modern management thinking was very close to the then newly emerging field of “agile software development.” When I look back at my experiences so much of the good times matched the thing, we call agile.I still love software, I love coding, but I don't code any more. (Actually, I do code a little, for love.) I devote my time to helping make software better. In my mind when I'm teaching, advising, coaching, consulting I'm helping the person I used to be. When I see programmers at work I see my younger self. And I want them to do a great job, I want them to be able to do a better job than I ever did.Today I call myself an Agile Guide – I guide people and organizations to greater agility. I provide coaching and direct advice on agile working to leaders and teams creating digital products (software!). The companies I work with come from many fields as different as healthcare and surveying. However, they all depend on software to deliver for their customers. Without software they are nothing. Yesterday… I started coding in 1982 on a Sinclair ZX81. By 1986 I was earning money as a regular contributor to BBC Telesoftware – PDP, PDR, Eclipse, Fonts, Demon's Tomb, EMACS (no, not that emacs), Snapshot and Femcoms to name a few, mostly in 6502 assembler. In 1989 I was a system administrator with Nixdorf Computer. In 1991 I was a software tester at DIP in Guildford building the Sharp PC-3000. Even as an undergraduate I was hired by the University to help teach other undergraduates and occasionally post-graduates.

LOST IN TRANSLATOR—There are more than 7,000 languages in the world and there's a good chance that you don't speak or read most of them. Being an English-language speaker is, among other things, a huge privilege in this multilingual world because while it may not be the most widely spoken first language, English is the language that is most widely spoken.There's a chance that you can get by in English almost everywhere. And so English speakers tend not to learn other languages. To their detriment. (And to the resentment of others. But that's another story.)Not all of the world's 7,000 languages are robust enough to support their own media. But guess what—there's a lot of media in this world that isn't created in English. Enter Translator, a magazine of translated journalism and reportage from around the world for, “the open-minded and the language-curious.”And in a world where much of our media is controlled by fewer and fewer people, this kind of wider view of what others are saying and thinking is, perhaps, more necessary than ever. Maybe the only surprising thing about Translator is that it wasn't created … sooner.”—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press.

AN ELEGY FOR THE ELITE—Michael Grynbaum is a correspondent for The New York Times, where he has covered media, politics, and culture for 18 years. He's reported on three presidential campaigns, two New York City mayors—they're always so boring—and the transformation of the media world in the Trump era. He lives in Manhattan and he's a graduate of Harvard.His first book, Empire of the Elite: Inside Condé Nast, the Media Dynasty that Reshaped America, was published by Simon & Schuster in June, 2025. In the book, Michael chronicles the origins of the company, its go-go boom days in the eighties and nineties, and its more recent post-print transformation into whatever Condé Nast is these days. We'll figure that out later.Michael's bestseller captured a lot of attention when it was published—it's a bestseller and it's the latest in the line of books by and about Condé Nast magazine makers—full of great anecdotes and good stories. The kind of stuff we love here on Print Is Dead (Long Live Print!), and it's extremely readable.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type and Freeport Press.

POP GOES PRINT—“Today, creativity feels like it's being squeezed into smaller and smaller boxes. Content is designed to chase likes, rack up views, serve a clear function—a purpose….we're here—to celebrate creativity for creativity's sake, no strings attached. Analog isn't dead; it's the new rebellion.”This manifesto is a part of a striking editorial in the first issue of Playground, a new magazine created out of Singapore by Pop Mart, the maker of the Labubu. I honestly never thought I would a) write that kind of sentence in my life, and b) understand it, but here we are. It's 2025! If  you're unfamiliar with PopMart you are unfamiliar with one of the largest creative companies in the world, one valued almost as much as Disney or Nintendo. Playground is an extraordinary editorial project, championed by creatives and executives in a company that claims its mission is to “light up passion” so that its brand can promote a “galaxy of creative possibilities.” Got all that? So by now you might be asking yourself a fundamental question: Why? Why this thing? And why print? Well, that same editorial anticipates this exact question:“So, why print? Because print makes you pause. You can't swipe past a paragraph in a magazine. You can't multitask while turning a page. Print demands your attention and invites you to linger, to savor, to think…So here it is: our first issue. Take your time with it. Flip through the pages, spill some coffee on it if you must. Just don't try to scroll.” Amen—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

SHE LOVES HER WORK—The word ‘unicorn' gets thrown around a lot these days. But in our book, Sarah Ball is the Real Deal. The editor of WSJ. Magazine is a student of old-guard, in-the-trenches, work-on-a-story-for-years magazine making, which has earned her cred among the Jim Nelsons and David Grangers of the biz.She's also a digital native with a flare for experimentation and a new media scrappiness. Sarah spent her career bridging those divides predominantly at Vanity Fair and GQ where she helped those titles join the digital revolution—much more stylishly and convincingly than many of her competitors.Arguably more than any other editor of her generation, she brings print-era rigor, and also the romance of the whole magazine-making endeavor to digital-era reality. That's why when the Vanity Fair editor-in-chief job came open last spring, Sarah was right at the top of The Spread's list for who should get the gig.The wind blew a different way, as we all know by now, and she's happy at WSJ. But when you listen to our chat, we think you'll get why our money is on her.There's a lot of pessimism in journalism these days for good reason, but we challenge you to listen to this conversation without getting just as swept up as we did in Sarah's passion for magazines. It's almost enough to make us believe that print is not in fact dead. Not yet, at least..—This episode is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type and Freeport Press.

In this continuation of the Building Better Developers interview series, Kevin Adelsberger—owner of Adelsberger Marketing—returns to explore how businesses can refine their identity and message once the foundation is set. This episode focuses on branding and marketing fundamentals, uncovering what really drives connection, credibility, and growth. “Thinking about your brand and overall messaging is more important than color or font,” Kevin explains. “If your brand feels disconnected, no color will fix that.” The conversation moves beyond logos and design to the deeper work of communicating who you are and what you stand for—authentically and consistently. Branding: More Than Color and Fonts While many companies spend hours perfecting color palettes, Kevin challenges that mindset. He believes color psychology is largely a myth, with few industries where color directly affects success. Instead, businesses should focus on how their messaging and visuals align. Fonts, he adds, do have power. The right typeface can instantly signal tone—formal, playful, or high-tech—but only when used intentionally. “If you want to be a fun, crazy brand and your visuals feel stiff, no amount of color will fix the disconnect.” A strong brand reflects alignment: visuals, tone, and message working together to create trust and recognition. Keep Your Message Steady, but Your Website Fresh Kevin offers a balanced approach to maintaining your digital presence. Instead of obsessing over analytics or daily edits, he recommends structured consistency: Review your website monthly or quarterly for updates or broken features. Keep messaging steady, but stay alert for functionality issues like broken forms or outdated information. Focus on inbound marketing—making sure your brand is ready when customers come looking—then turn attention to outbound efforts like networking and content creation. “Most people never look at their website after it launches—that's a bigger problem than over-tweaking it.” Once your brand identity and message are established, spend more time sharing your expertise rather than endlessly adjusting pixels. Marketing Fundamentals for Beginners For entrepreneurs and small business owners who feel lost, Kevin recommends a few key resources to master branding and marketing fundamentals: Building a StoryBrand by Donald Miller — Understand how clear messaging connects you with customers. EntreLeadership by Dave Ramsey — Learn business and marketing principles from a leadership perspective. The Four Conversations by Blair Enns — Explore how to sell through consultative, relationship-driven discussions. Kevin also emphasizes simple, actionable steps: Define your competitive advantages and what makes you different. Create a one-liner that captures who you help and how. Avoid generic stock photos—real people and stories build trust. Feature your leadership team online; authenticity builds credibility. Learn from Competitors—Ethically Healthy competition can inspire innovation. Kevin encourages learning from peers and even collaborating with them. He participates in groups like the Bureau of Digital, a network of agency owners who share ideas without direct competition. “Artists steal,” Kevin jokes, “but the goal is to make other people's ideas better, not to copy them.” For those in established industries, he suggests finding professional or ownership groups—places where you can share, learn, and grow together. AI's Impact on Marketing and Creativity The conversation inevitably turns to artificial intelligence. Kevin views AI as both a tool and a threat—a resource that democratizes creativity while also reshaping industries. He points out the uncertainty around copyright, authenticity, and ethics, but admits that ignoring AI isn't an option. His team meets weekly to test new tools and evaluate where they can help. “We use AI to assist us, not replace us,” Kevin says. “It helps us work faster, but not everything it creates is ready for prime time.” From generating first-draft website content to creating AI voiceovers when budgets are tight, Kevin shows how these tools can fill gaps—without losing the human touch. Staying Grounded in a Changing Landscape Despite new technologies and shifting trends, Kevin's message remains timeless: strong branding is built on clarity, consistency, and authenticity. As the conversation wraps up, he reminds listeners that tools may evolve, but trust remains the core of every successful brand. “Stay human, stay honest, and keep refining your foundation.” A Little Background Kevin Adelsberger is the founder of Adelsberger Marketing, where they create work that grows their clients' businesses, in a culture that values their team and the Jackson, Tennessee, community.

A NEW RECIPE FOR FOOD MAGAZINES—You may think a magazine called Famous for My Dinner Parties would be about food or entertaining—and I wouldn't blame you if you did. You wouldn't be wrong, but you also wouldn't be right.Taking its name from Robert Altman's film, 3 Women, Famous for My Dinner Parties started as a pandemic-inspired digital project among three friends (Junshen Wu, Sandra von Mayer-Myrtenheim and Yannic Moeken) in Berlin and has evolved into a proper magazine and media brand, and along the way has won an engaged and broad audience far beyond Berlin. Something that continues to surprise the founders.The magazine is slightly odd, if I'm being honest, idiosyncratic, thoroughly compelling, and undeniably beautiful. It's also almost entirely done in house, including all the design, photography and writing. And despite this, or maybe because of it, the thing works. Whether or not this method—or lack of one—is sustainable is another question.And just to be clear, there is not a single recipe in the magazine. Just a whole lot of ideas. This is a magazine then, editorially and conceptually, built around vibes. Fuel for a discussion, perhaps, at your next really great dinner party. Whether or not you aspire to any sort of fame.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

THE GOOD CITIZEN—This episode is a special one for us here at Magazeum. We even gave it its own code name: “Project Rosebud” (IYKYK). But if you only know our guest as the grandson of the man who inspired the lead character in the film classic Citizen Kane and the founder of one of the largest publishing empires in the world, you are missing out. Will Hearst could have done the easy thing, but he chose not to. As the current chairman of the Hearst Corporation, Will balances stewardship of a sprawling media empire with a commitment to community and lasting value. Unlike the new breed of media moguls, his leadership is less about compliance and more about the continuing importance of fostering quality journalism rooted in place and purpose.But aside from his role as a suit at the Hearst Corporation, Will's labor of love is Alta—an indie quarterly that champions a distinct West Coast voice, providing a vital counterpoint to the East Coast lens that still dominates the national discourse.Alta is crafted to be held and savored—he thinks of its subscribers as members more than a mailing list. In an age dominated by volume, speed, and algorithms, Will Hearst would like to remind us to slow down, listen deeply, and consume wisely. In times like these, his vision seems almost Quixotic—to see media as craft, culture as inheritance, and storytelling as something lasting.

But how will Emma in Hampshire and Tom in Shropshire get on with today's questions?

THE KIDS ARE ALRIGHT—While it's not true that kids don't read, it may be true that adults aren't teaching kids to read. It's also true that today's children face issues that those of the past didn't. And the pandemic—there's that word again—impacted everyone in ways we're still figuring out, including kids. Perhaps especially kids.There are, amazingly, and encouragingly, many new magazines for children of all ages now. One of them is Anyway, a magazine for tweens founded by two mothers—and long-time friends—who grew up loving magazines and, yes, were worried about their kids' screen time. They also knew that tween issues weren't being addressed properly and that a root cause of some of them was a media landscape that pushed consumers, no matter the age, into silos—or communities—where they could go through life unchallenged.Go to the Anyway website and you are confronted with the slogan: “Growing up is hard. You can do it Anyway.“ This speaks to both kids and parents, another reality of a kids magazine that most magazines don't have to face: you have two very specific markets—kids and their parents—and your readership will eventually age out. Meaning the marketing challenges never end even while reader loyalty does. What does that mean for a media brand?—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press.

On this episode of Japan Station, we're talking about the history of font design in Japan, the history of the Nintendo font and how Daniel Kaihatsu became a type face designer in Japan.

A MODERN FORM OF WORSHIP—Name the five photographers who, more than any others, defined the dramatic shift in the approach to magazine photography in the late eighties and early nineties. There's Herb Ritts, Bruce Weber, Steven Meisel. Richard Avedon, of course. Who's missing? I'm getting to that.Today's guest was discovered while still a student at ArtCenter College of Design in Los Angeles, by Andy Warhol no less, whose upstart (and budget-deficient) team at "Interview" couldn't afford to send a crew to LA for a shoot. His first subject, newbie director Steven Spielberg, launched his photography career, and soon he was shooting for every magazine you could imagine.We're talking, of course, about Matthew Rolston. He, and his fellow rebels, changed everything by bringing both a sensuality and a sexuality to newsstands that big publishing hadn't seen before. Readers ate it up. Ask him to explain this transformation and you'll get a hot take that will completely change how you think about media and celebrity:“I think glamour—and glamour photography—is a substitute for god and goddess worship. The altar is the photo studio. So the goddess comes to the dressing room like she would've come to the preparation chamber of a temple. She's anointed with oils and potions—that would be the hair and makeup team. She's dressed in symbolic raiment—that would be the styling. And she's led to the altar where the adherents kneel before her—that would be me on the floor with my camera. It is really the same thing. It's just a modern, twisted version of the same impulses that we have to idolize people and worship them.” Just this year ArtCenter, his alma mater, presented the photographer, director, author, artist, and educator with its prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award, honoring both his creative legacy and his role as a mentor to the next generation. It's the perfect moment to look back on his remarkable career, and to hear directly from Rolston himself.Our Anne Quito caught up with Matthew in the lead up to the premiere of an evocative new body of work, "Vanitas: The Palermo Portraits," a site-specific installation at ArtCenter, which premieres this weekend.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type and Freeport Press.

GUARDIAN AT THE GATEFOLD—Today's guest has become almost synonymous with graphic design and editorial publishing. His career began in the defiant New York “sex press” of the late 1960s, where not-actually-that-surprisingly, as a teenager he was already art-directing magazines like Screw and The New York Review of Sex. That unlikely starting point gave him a rare education in the power of design to command attention and shape meaning.We're talking about designer, author, editor, educator, and true legend, Steven Heller.Heller went on to spend more than three decades at The New York Times, most memorably as art director of The New York Times Book Review. There, he transformed the visual life of the section, commissioning bold, original illustration and making the case—over and over again—that design is not ornamental but integral to editorial voice. Through his advocacy, he helped elevate the status of designers in publishing offices, giving visual thinkers a seat at the table alongside editors and writers.Beyond the newsroom, Heller has been prolific almost to the point of obsession. He has written, edited, or co-authored more than two hundred books on design, creating an extraordinary record of the field's history, ideas, and influences. And most recently, he turned that critical eye inward with his memoir, Growing Up Underground, a candid account of his early years in New York's counterculture publishing scene.Steve is a practitioner, a chronicler, and an advocate for design—and he's also part of the team here at Magazeum. We are thrilled to turn the mic on him for this special conversation.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type and Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?—Josh Jones has done a lot of things when it comes to magazines: Editor. Writer. Maker. Custom publisher. Mentor. Evangelist. All of the above. Has Josh helped write a book about hip hop in Mongolia? Yes. Has he sat back and watched Gordon Ramsey mash his face into a sandwich? Indeed. Has he written an instructive how to book that reminds the reader to always lift a box of magazines by bending one's knees? Yes, again. For more than 20 years, Josh has been creating magazines, both for resolutely indie concerns and reasons, but also custom publications for the likes of The North Face, Red Bull, Interscope and Nike. And while he has no illusions about the challenges the industry faces, he's also resolutely optimistic about a world that he loves, so much so that his “field guide to publishing an indie magazine” Just Make Your Magazine is, true to its subhead, the “fastest selling self help book.” OK, I don't know if that's true. It probably isn't if I'm being honest. But still. You speak to him and you become an optimist. And this is not just because, as he says in the book, “indie magazine making has never been more popular.”It's also because, and perhaps caught up in the same optimism, I suggest that it's possible we are over the Print Panic of the mid aughts and the industry, as a whole, is now back on a sustained kind of upswing. That's an idea we're going to explore on the show this season. Because there has to be some things that are right in the world, damnit.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press.

THE REST OF THE STORY—Most people in the world live in what we in the west sometimes dismissively call the “rest of the world.” Depending on where you live, “the rest” probably includes parts, if not all, of Latin America, Africa, and the vast majority of Asia. Much like the tendency of Americans to call the champions of their sports leagues “world champions,” the word “world” is never what it seems.Except when it is.Founded as a non-profit by Sophie Schmidt in 2020, Rest of World is meant to challenge the “expectations about whose experiences with technology matter,” as its mission states. With a global editorial team led by today's guest Anup Kaphle, Rest of World's emphasis on the technological transformation of the daily lives of billions of people is eye-opening, educational, entertaining, and fills in the gaps in our general understanding of how technology is used everywhere. When it won a National Magazine Award last year, one sensed that it had finally arrived to a broader audience.The rest of the world is a big place, perhaps too big for a paper magazine. That's why Rest of World is digital.Those in the “west” would be better served by understanding it. Because everything and everyone is, ultimately, connected.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

IMAGINE FRIENDSGIVING AS A MAGAZINE—The pandemic hit New York first and harder and longer than most places. And as a New Yorker, Joshua Glass was appalled by the eerily quiet and empty city that resulted. He wanted to connect with people, any people, but he wanted quality gatherings, as opposed to quantity. When restrictions on gatherings began to ease up, he started curating a series of dinner parties around town. And these get-togethers led to the creation of Family Style, a media brand that brought all his interests under a single, and perhaps singular, cultural umbrella. The result is, finally, what the people at those highly-curated, and probably well-dressed, dinner parties talked about—and the magazine is the core of a growing brand that encompasses production, events, digital, and social. Family Style is a magazine at the intersection of food and culture—an interesting magazine about interesting people interested in interesting things, all united by a kind of global glossy aesthetic. So is Family Style a fashion magazine, a culture magazine, a food magazine, or an arts journal? The answer is “yes.”—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025

THE ROADS LESS TRAVELED—Much of travel media comes with a kind of sheen to it. A gloss. Whether you are traveling Italy with a hungry celebrity or cruising Alaska in the pages of a magazine, the photos are big and Photoshopped, the text kind of breathless. And while Afar has plenty of both, it just feels a bit different. It is not a magazine that puts a focus on consumption but on feeling. On the experience of travel.Julia Cosgrove has been atop Afar's masthead from the beginning. She comes from a magazine and journalism family. And despite their warnings about the industry, she joined the family business anyway because what kid listens to their parents? When the founders of Afar Media plucked her out of ReadyMade magazine and told her that no other travel magazine felt experiential to them, she understood and joined the team.Travel media has changed a lot over the years.
