    Episode 89: Looking Back on Four Years
    Sep 25 2024
    In honor of International Podcast Day, we’re taking a look back at our own origin story. How the podcast began, why we continue to do it and what could be coming next. It’s the story of two friends, one shared profession and the pop culture love that kickstarted it all. Mix-up a couple of White Russians. We’re taking it slow and philosophical as we wander back into the bar. - - - - - Visit our full episode page for show notes, the visual examples we discuss, additional links and more! https://www.twodesignerswalkintoabar.com/episodes/episode-89-looking-back - - - - - Have a question or idea for Todd and Elliot?

    Episode 88: Talking Music Posters with Paul Hennessey
    Sep 11 2024
    Both eye-catching and informative, posters are one of the most highly collectible forms of design. They are used to promote products, places, events, art, political movements and almost anything else you can think of. Today we're joined by a special guest from across the Pond, Paul Hennessey, who owns two poster shops in the UK. We talk cats, food sauces, whether Paul may be Banksy and music posters for the Live Aid concerts and Duran Duran's album Rio. Pour yourself a pint and belly on up. It's time to join us and our special guest expert back in the bar. - - - - - Visit our full episode page for show notes, the visual examples we discuss, additional links and more! https://www.twodesignerswalkintoabar.com/episodes/episode-88-music-posters-with-paulh - - - - - Have a question or idea for Todd and Elliot?

    Episode 87: Gen X and the Golden Age of Magazines
    Aug 28 2024
    The late '80s and the '90s were a golden age for magazines. With the World Wide Web a few years away, advertising dollars were being pumped into print and art directors and publishers did not disappoint with their offerings. In this episode we talk about Raygun, Wired, Rolling Stone and Vibe and the approaches of David Carson, Plunkett + Kuhr, Fred Woodward and Gary Koepke. Elliot also tells the story of trying to get an internship at one of these lauded publications. Flip to your favorite liquor ad and show it to your nearest mixologist. It's time once again to join us back in the bar. - - - - - Visit our full episode page for show notes, the visual examples we discuss, additional links and more! https://www.twodesignerswalkintoabar.com/episodes/episode-87-genx-magazines - - - - - Have a question or idea for Todd and Elliot?
