Now more than ever I feel there has been a renaissance of stamp & philately content online. If you are looking for something to listen to in the background give this new youtube channel "Conversations with Philatelists" a go and give them some support.
Currently the two hosts have a chat with Greg Loew of American Philatelist and another video with key member of the APS, Alex Haimann.
Found them both quite interesting but especially the chat they had with Alex Haimann about the Young Philatelic Leaders Fellowship and them bridging the gap between young and old stamp collectors.
Thank you for posting the “lead” re the new online series, “Conversations with Philatelists”. Just watched the episode featuring Gary Lowe, new Editor-in Chief of American Philatelist.
The episode exceeded my expectations, and Gary Loew’s enthusiasm for his new position is palpable. Sufficiently so to cause me to reconsider my lapsed APS membership.
Was also pleased to learn the APS is allowing free access to the AP archives during the pandemic.
Charles and Michael are great young philatelists and three weeks in, they are really getting a good rhythm.

Gary is truly enthusiastic about his collecting and bringing as many people along as possible.
Not only are we providing free access to the journals, but also the Digital Library through the APRL. It's a searchable library of 15 journals - including the full run of The American Philatelist.
The videos remind of Nancy Clark's Stamp Talk (audio pod coast) that stopped after losoh financial support. Gary comes across like the actor in the World's Most Interesting Guy commercial.
