The raunchier the better!
So how far does Time, Rolling Stone and the rest of the print magazine industry need to go to sell a magazine?
A mother with her breast exposed and her son having a feed, at age 3, is that taking things a bit too far?
Or are we now so accustom to seeing flesh that we need more extreme cover art to attract us to the magazine rack?
How far are our magazine publishers willing to go to sell their rags?

Is the West Politically unaware?
The west, how often do we point our fingers in the direction of the west when there are issues?
Narain Jashanmal and I usually sit and talk about some cool mags and the ideas in them, this week I am alone.
I opened the phone to chat about global ideas and awareness fueled by the 90th anniversary of Foreign Affairs and the 5th anniversary of Monocle.
The reality is we are pretty unaware!
And it is our fault.

Off the Rack, Off the Radar
Narain Jashanmal and I had a wonderful conversation about magazines that are just a little different.
We looked at Brown Book from here in the UAE, Dumbo Feather from Australia and Print fromt he USA.
All three of these publications are just amazing in their own way and really harken back to that time no so long ago when reading, in hard copy, was an experience.
Give the podcast a listen.

Off the Magazine Rack.
This week we went back to the magazine rack at Jashenmal Books and found 4 great mags that all had the idea of change between the cover. Harpers Bazaar, Rolling Stone, GQ and Esquire. We ended up asking if we should just fire people and stop sugar coating things!
