Season finale! It's a recurring joke in my bio that I live with my family, a dog, and three adorable typewriters. In today's episode, we meet three vintage manual typewriters, explore their history and quirks, and find out why I like these old-fashioned writing machines so much. Consider this a coda to our season-long theme of nostalgia. See photos of the typewriters and more information I couldn't fit into the episode on my website.

Big changes are happening in my life. After years of collecting books, I've reached a point in my life when I need to get rid of some of my books. At first, I dreaded it, but as I went along, I realized that maybe now is the best time to let someone else appreciate the books that have brought me so much joy. This is how you say goodbye.

This is “Dispatches with Jonny Eberle,” a podcast about writing, travel, and the creative process. In each bite-sized episode, I take you inside the writing life. We’ll talk about everything from what it takes to write a novel to where inspiration comes from to how the places we call home influence the stories we tell. I’ll share excerpts from my fiction and travel writing, interview authors and filmmakers, and pull back the curtain on the messy journey from bright idea to final draft—and we’ll do it all in ten minutes or less (usually).

I’m your host, Jonny Eberle. I’m a writer, filmmaker, and podcaster. I’ve been writing for as long as I can remember and have been a professional storyteller for over a decade, publishing articles and short stories, making my own short films and audio dramas, and even working on a documentary film crew.

“Dispatches with Jonny Eberle” comes out in 10-episode seasons that are released twice a month on Wednesdays, with a healthy break in between seasons, because rest is a crucial part of the creative process and, let’s face it, I don’t want to get burned out.

So, brew yourself a nice cup of tea and settle in for the podcast that one listener described as simply “delightful” and another said was both “succinct and insightful.” Find “Dispatches with Jonny Eberle” on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music, and pretty much everywhere podcasts are found.
