Description

Elliot sits down for a cup of tea at Erik Spiekermann’s house in London to discuss his successes and failures, his latest typeface neue Serie57®, the relationship between paper and screen, and why Frutiger could very well be the typeface Erik takes to a desert island. Warning: lots of swearing!

Hello, type friends! is podcast hosted by Elliot Jay Stocks (Google Fonts, Adobe Fonts, 8 Faces, etc.) who’s lucky enough to count some extremely talented and well-known type designers, lettering artists, illustrators, authors, and type-loving creatives as his friends. Each episode involves Elliot sitting down with a friend for an informal chat about life, work, and, well… whatever comes up. No script. No plans. And no Bézier curves. Because who wants to listen to people talk about such visually-centric nuances on an audio-only podcast? Instead, type is the common thread that binds everyone together, and listening to Hello, type friends! hopefully feels a bit like overhearing a couple of mates chatting in the pub.
