Two Designers Walk Into a Bar

Episode 01: MAD Magazine, Humor and Finding Pop Culture Inspiration


Listen Later

In our first episode, we discuss our podcast’s humble beginnings including a conversation about illustrator Mort Drucker that got the ball rolling, meeting William Shatner and why MAD Magazine and the movie Airplane! are important parts of our creative sensibilities, and how our show got its name. We consider why all creative people are pack rats and how collecting PEZ dispensers is not a waste of Todd’s time, money or shelf space. And we answer the all-important questions about what “corn pone” means and why a visual medium like design needs an audio medium like a podcast.
