While I’m busy packing up the last bits of the Rat’s Nest and closing out a busy school year, I thought I’d share a feed drop from one of my favorite podcasts, Weird Medieval Guys! It’s a great time, and folks who like a heavy dose of silly alongside their design talk will definitely enjoy it.
While it’s not normally a design-specific show, this episode covers a large swath of the evolution of western type history, starting way before the inception of modern western movable type and culminating in World War II—with ample Gothic distractions along the way. Olivia and Aran are excellent researchers and genuinely joyful to listen to. Fontroversy fans, I think you’re going to like this one!
