The Deeply Graphic Designcast

Nick Longo and Mikelle Morrison have been recording The Deeply Graphic Designcast since 2012, making it one of the longest-running graphic design podcasts still in active production. The show bills itself as the place where creatives level up, and with over 220 episodes, there is a deep back catalog to prove it. The format mixes interview episodes with industry guests and discussion episodes where Nick and Mikelle tackle design topics together, drawing on their combined experience as working designers. Recent episodes have featured conversations about building better creative teams, navigating career transitions, and the practical realities of running a design business in 2026. The hosts have an easy rapport that keeps episodes moving without feeling rushed. They are funny and opinionated but also genuinely interested in learning from their guests, which makes interviews feel collaborative rather than scripted. The show covers a wide range within graphic design: branding, typography, illustration, packaging, motion graphics, and the business mechanics that hold creative careers together. What listeners particularly appreciate is how relatable the hosts are. They are not design celebrities giving advice from on high -- they are working professionals sharing what they have learned through trial and error. That grounded perspective makes the advice feel achievable. Episodes come out biweekly and typically run 45 minutes to an hour. The show is available on all major podcast platforms and also has a presence on YouTube for listeners who prefer video. If you are a graphic designer who wants a podcast that treats the profession seriously while still being entertaining to listen to, Nick and Mikelle have been delivering exactly that for over a decade.
