In episode 6 of Almost Every Month Podcast, our guest is Yena from Moonlit Planning. Yena and I discuss the culture around the phenomenon of flip throughs. It is Flip through season! Tune in to any planner or Bujoer's IG or YouTube page, and you will see pages fluttering like leaves on a fall day. Why do people enjoy making and consuming the endless footage of other people's planner designs? We talk about the history of record keeping, diaries and journals, from the pragmatic to the therapeutic uses of each method. ASMR folks, do you like podcast background bird noises? Then bonus alert!

Welcome to Almost Every Month--(Hobo maitsuki no poddokyasuto)--A podcast about all things ephemera—journals, planners, pens, paper, ink and more. In this first series, I delve deeply into the wildly popular Hobonichi planners and all the culture that surrounds them—from the storied history of its founder Shigesato Itoi to the cottage industries and influencers that have sprung up around it. Special guests from the planner, pen and journal world will make appearances in each episode. The name Almost Every Month was chosen as a play on the meaning of Hobonichi (the 'almost every day' blog)
