Thank you for all the fantastic podcast, I have recommended to many friends. Your last podcast about religion/ comic books is definitely not my thing. To Roman Mars, to you or your team, if ever coming to Norway, please come and check us out, we work with design and eco tourism: Aacamp.no or instagram: aa_camp. We will be pleased to look after you. Once again thank you for all the fantastic podcasts. Kind regards Peter Manning

All these things I really care about without knowing. Makes life richer
I love this pod!
I seriously do. I am neither an architect nor a designer, but the themes in this pod are very interesting. I love the format and the quality of sound/content/clipping and it is my companion on many evening walks. I have favourited so many episodes, and I am only on episode 162 when writing this review.
