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. Instead, type is the common thread that binds everyone together, and listening to Hello, type friends! is a bit like overhearing a couple of mates chatting in the pub.

A few things mentioned in this episode include: Jamie & Filip’s article on AI for Smashing MagType Design intensive (TDi) course at ReadingThe Dark Art of Pricing by Jessica HischePrice with Purpose by GooodtypeHouse of Leaves by Mark Z.

    Francis Chouquet

    Elliot sits down with Francis Chouquet, a type designer, lettering artist, printmaker, and former web designer who’s based just outside of Basel, Switzerland, to talk about the weekly schedule that enforces time away from screens, using physically distinct locations to do different kinds of creative work, and how he’s grown his audience via his newsletter, The Typochondriac Weekly.

    Emma Luczyn

    Elliot sits down outside a pub in Bristol with designer and lettering artist Emma Luczyn, who was responsible for Elliot’s hand-lettered logo. They talk about Emma’s journey as a self-prescribed black sheep in a non-creative family, budgeting sensibly as an art student, delaying getting a ‘real job’ in order to travel, moving from print design to web design to lettering, and how her family life has come about as a direct result of her creative pursuits. Warning: as well as some NSFW language in this one, there’s an actual mention of Bézier curves.

    Erik Spiekermann

    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.

    Dan Cederholm

    Elliot sits down with Dan Cederholm, who many will know for his pioneering web design work, his multiple books, and as the co-founder of Dribbble. These days, Dan’s studio Simplebits is a type foundry, so Elliot and Dan talk learning new skills, career reinvention, the woes of social media, and moving from digital to analogue and back again — all with a healthy (or is that unhealthy?) dose of reminiscing about the good ol’ days of the web. — You might also enjoy: Elliot’s newsletter Typographic & Sporadic, which is typographic in its nature and sporadic in its delivery. Elliot’s new book, Universal Principles of Typography, is out now and available from anywhere that sells books.
