Description

Elliot sits down with James Edmondson of OH no Type Co. — whose typefaces Degular and Swear are used in Elliot’s new book and indeed the branding for this podcast — to talk about the realities of launching and growing a type foundry, making his own bass guitars, stealing good ideas, and a bit of reminiscing about the good ol’ CSS Zen Garden.
You might also enjoy Elliot’s newsletter Typographic & Sporadic, which is typographic in its nature and sporadic in its delivery.

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.
