I’ve been listening for years to 99pi and it’s consistently thought provoking/ entertaining and fascinating. + feels really nicely produced. Love it
Enjoyable historical archive but increasingly heavy on leftist politics

Many episodes are a wonderful listen but sometime around George Floyd the show shifted to increasingly biased reporting that grates. You’ll find too many examples to enumerate, but I just listened to the episode about Times Square and despite the remarkable transformation and progress, they managed to criticise and complain that it was lead by business rather than the city and how instead it should be heavier taxation that funds it, as if there aren’t plentiful examples of how it failed. Focus on the design and architecture, it’s what makes the show a joy and leave the politics bias at home.
Great but unprincipled

Wonderful podcast but I am constantly annoyed that a podcast which celebrates urbanism and cities takes advertising money from fossil-fuel powered SUV manufacturers. Cars ruin cities, particularly SUVs and particularly petrol ones. Hearing the host use phrases like ‘the best of petrol power’ in embedded ads is hypocritical and cheap.
Absolutely fascinating.

Totally random but fascinating knowledge, well presented.
