Best Design Podcast out there
Easily the most interesting podcast on design and architecture I’ve found. My favourite episode are the ones where the title and topic doesn’t appeal to me at all, because they change my mind every time.
The very definition of interesting
Along with Ezra Klein‘s „Ezra Klein Show“ and Malcolm Gladwell‘s „Revisionist History“, this is one of my staple podcasts. Whenever I have time to myself, I put one of them on.
99% Invisible takes a topic, usually design-related, and goes through it in some detail. The episodes are informative and agreeable to listen to. It is like having your very own documentary channel on hand. Little pockets of the world, usually America, at different times and places are opened to me. I am learning what a difficult time black people had in the States. The episode of the Little Green Book was especially informative.
I have also learnt that Oakland, California is beautiful.
When’s Roman coming back?
