This week we're joined by Eddy, the founder, editor and art director of Water Journal, a photo-driven magazine that dedicates its pages to exploring water in all its forms. I love it when magazines plumb the depths of a niche, and as you'll hear this title is driven by Eddy's own personal obsession, as well as his desire to do things differently. Inspiring stuff for any aspiring independent publishers out there... Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

This week we paid a visit to Rabbits Road Press, the new community risograph print studio and publishing press based in Newham, East London. There we spoke to founders Sofia Niazi, Rose Nordin and Heiba Lamara about their aims for the press, and how it fits in with their feminist magazine OOMK. Hosted on Ausha.

We're back for our first proper podcast episode of 2017, chatting with Tom Armstrong, editor of London-based music magazine The Move.

On our second podcast trip to New York we go back to Small City in Brooklyn for a panel discussion recorded in front of a live audience on 20 October 2016.

This week I caught up with Jack Self, editor of Real Review, to speak to him about his magazine that won Launch of the Year at our awards ceremony last month. He has a fantastic talent for exploring the structures and forces that shape the way we live, and he spoke about the infrastructures of architecture, politics, publishing and much more. It was a really inspiring meeting, and I'm looking forward to seeing what he'll do in 2017. Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

This week Supermundane dropped in on the Stack office, so we whipped out the microphone and took the opportunity to record an interview with him. The renowned illustrator and artist was making magazines before Stack even existed, and it was brilliant to hear him reflecting on his work for Anorak and Fire & Knives, and very exciting to discover that he's planning a new print magazine for next year. Listen to our interview, then Google the talk he did earlier this year for It's Nice That. You won't be disappointed... Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.

This week we slip back in time to early September, for a conversation with Danny Miller, publisher of Weapons of Reason and co-founder of creative agency Human After All. The serial magazine maker speaks about the mixture of altruism and pragmatism that runs through his projects, including the Publishing Playbook, a free online resource for anyone who wants to make their own magazine, and of course Weapons of Reason, a magazine that wants to inspire positive action in its readers.

Charlotte Roberts and Bertie Brandes, the two women behind Mushpit magazine, drop in on the Stack office at Somerset House to talk about the making of the crisis issue, and the anxieties that come from doing the thing you set out to achieve.

This week's episode begins on a train to Nottingham, jets off to New York, then ends up back here in my living room in London. And in the middle of it I speak with Mackenzie Peck, editor and founder of Math magazine, the progressive porn quarterly. You won't be surprised to hear that there is a fair amount of adult material in this one, so you might not want to listen along with the kids. Hosted on Ausha.
