This episode features two of the international guests that spoke at our recent magCulture Live London 2023 event. Both joined us a couple of days after the event to discuss their publications in more detail, revealing a shared passion for print. After a brief reflection on magCulture Live from Jeremy and Danielle, and a look at some recent new magazines, we hear from our two guests. Debra Bishop is design director of the New York Times Kids, a brilliant award-winning broadsheet monthly distributed with the weekend newspaper. She talks about her career to date—including Rolling Stone and Martha Stewart—and her approach to designing the broadsheet. She also talks about the Print is Dead podcast, which she helped set up with Patrick Mitchell. Maya Moumne is a principal member of the team behind Beirut-based magazines Journal Safar and Al Hayya. She discusses what first attracted her to print, and the difficulties of producing politically ambitious magazines in the South West Asia and North Africa area. We’re grateful to our friends at Park Communications for their support of the magCulture Podcast. Find them online at www.parkcom.co.uk Audio produced and edited by Sam Williams
