Listening Between the Leading

It was my pleasure to be interviewed last night by Aaron Heth and Matt McInerney, two self-proclaimed extremely passionate design students from the Savannah College of Art & Design, for their Read Between the Leading podcast. We had a nice chat about where I got my start, from school to my first job, and a good bit about the state of web design and where we’re headed.

Thanks very much to Aaron and Matt for having me on! Be sure to check out a few of the past episodes with some of my favorite designers: Armin Vit and Bryony Gomez-Palacio of UnderConsideration, Stephen Coles of Typographica, John Boardley from ILoveTypography, Mark Simonson, and Antonio Carusone of AisleOne.

You can listen (or download) my interview from the site. Enjoy!

  Rockin interview. You should start a Ustream.tv show.

  It sounded like someone is clicking a pen during the interview. Is that you Jason?

  @ Chris Wallace :

  Nope, not me. My mic was already crappy enough and picking up every stray sound. I just tried to stay perfectly still to keep background noise to a minimum.

  Thanks for the post Jason. Aaron and I really enjoyed having you on the show.

  Sorry about the clicking sound by the way, I couldn’t equalize or noise gate it out of the recording in some spots. No one was clicking a pen or typing, I think it might have been a stray computer sound or something bumping into a mic.

  Great interview. Totally enjoyed how the hosts actually interacted with you instead of just reading off questions. BTW, grats on Typekit!
