Description
How badly do we all need to expand our type vocabulary‽ This episode starts with Skeleton fonts, a typeface that brings the glom, creative pixelation, and the Goofus and Gallant of font releases, and then the guys rank the definitive* list of type words, phrases, and concepts that everyone should know. Josh just won't let you forget about Blackletter fonts and Kyle is all about those ligatures, but it turns out you probably won't impress people by being able to tell the difference between a dash and a hyphen. And then the 90s came around (heavy sigh)...*Absolutely not definitiveSupport the Words of Type Kickstarter here!Font releases highlighted in this episode:FT Lambert from FrosTypeRoutine from Blaze Type Kyoshi from Alanna Munro Lardent and Dopple from Colophon FoundrySupport the Interrogang and help us expand what Proof&Co. and the Interrogang have to offer!Subscribe to TypeCraft, our sister podcast, for hour long interviews and visual companions from some of the industry leaders in type!Subscribe to the Weekly Newsletter or The Concierge Newsletter for all the independent type news that's fit to email!Get your 2022 Annual Report and Almanac, our data-driven look at the world of independent typography in 2022!Support the show
