A podcast about magazines and the people who make them. Every fortnight we hear from an indie magazine maker about why they started, how they put together new issues and the trials and challenges of producing a printed publication. Hosted by Dan Rowden of Magpile.com, Subsail.com and @dansmags.
Ben is the founder and editor of Fare, a magazine that explores cities via their food culture. We talked about the process of creating a first issue, travelling to new cities for each issue and using a reliable team of collaborators to create familiarity as the magazine jumps around the world.

Kai publishes Offscreen, a magazine about the “human side of technology.” Now 22 issues in, Offscreen has grown from a title covering tech companies into a publication that challenges how we as humans think about technology.
