Industrial Posters of the World

We chat with WNYC/Gothamist reporter Jake Offenhartz about what's it like covering a paramilitary organization (NYPD) during the ongoing BLM protests, how to prep for covering street fights between protestors and cops, the pros/cons of posting through it, how the kids are all on Instagram, and the value of being in a newsroom. 

A chat with two folks involved in the Freelance Solidarity Project about how we're bringing back collaborative work, making a better working environment for all of us weirdo freelancers, getting fucking paid from these fucking publications, and the benefits of ~collective action~.

We chat with writer/editor/poster Andy Holt about finding your audience, posting vore to your work account, twitter brain damage, useless MFAs, an ode to the message board, and how to heal yourself from editor rejections.

A pleasant and chill conversation about the antiquated practice of night-blogging, the accidental blogging birth of "the Cuomosexual," the problem of headline and screenshot culture, get into some Bad Media Takes, and the indiscriminate posting amplifier.

We chat with independent comedy labor journalist Seth Simons about how he developed his beat, crybaby culture, why SNL fucking sucks, and generally raise kind of awful looming questions about what's worse: journalism or comedy. 

We convert shitposts into incisive social commentary with one of our world's premiere posting experts, Miles Klee from MEL Magazine, IPW's first official Blue Check. We get into the death of Daddy Rush, the posting beat, the big account RT rush, the poster-to-pundit-to-poster pipeline, parody autofiction, the last ever staff gig, and answer our first listener question.

Jaya regales us with her narrow escape from journalism and return to upstate NY, we come face to face with the death of writing jobs, how to use posting for good, and the Blue Check Divide, and Twitter for Her. 

We merge with Elizabeth King and talk why mayors suck, the Dems' $600 down payment on human survival, Twitter and Facebook doing a Substack, and stonks. 

We drink to forget the liberals on one over the inauguration and celebrate the best Trump Reply Guy, Jeff Tiedrich. Also how podcasts are the new printing press and our first Bertolt Brecht reference.

We intro a new mission statement, Lauren details A Posting Story, Rick delves into a media theory of why we're losing our minds, and then we talk about Baked Alaska and The Posters Coup.
