    All Your Favorite Landmarks Are Built on Swamps

    I knew nothing about "land reclamation" two weeks ago. Turns out we've been quietly MAKING land — out of swamps, mudflats, and open ocean — for centuries. The Lincoln Memorial, Ellis Island, LaGuardia, and roughly a third of Manhattan are all built on filled-in muck. This week i kept going down this rabbit hole to find out how the Mississippi built Louisiana and how we broke it, why America basically stopped building land in the 1970s, the Dutch magic of polders, why indonesia's capitol is sinking so fast it's building a whole new capital, Tokyo making fresh ground out of its own burned trash, and — yes — the real-life sand mafias who disappear people over one of the most-mined resources on Earth. Plus: garden updates from a punishing July heat wave, and a very sad night at Subway.  00:00 Intro: what is land reclamation?  00:26 Garden life & a brutal July heat wave  03:00 Comedy update (+ a sad night at Subway)  05:38 The rabbit hole: New Orleans  06:16 Making land 101: Ellis Island, LaGuardia, DC  07:58 How the Mississippi built Louisiana — and how we broke it  11:45 Why America basically stopped building land  14:14 The Netherlands & the magic of polders  15:39 Asia goes big: China & the South China Sea  17:27 Dubai, desert sand & the sand mafias  18:33 Buying a country's land by the boatload  19:41 America's made land, recapped  21:11 Jakarta is sinking — and just giving up  24:47 Tokyo: built on filled swamp and its own burned trash  25:41 The Louisiana fix we canceled  27:55 Building with nature: the Marker Wadden  29:39 Wrap-up & upcoming shows

    LAWNS Why Your Lawn Makes No Sense | Connor Larsen Show Episode 10

    I love mowing the lawn but I also think the lawn is completely insane so i did some research and its actually way crazier. The lawn we know started as a rich-guy flex then became a great place for bio warfare chemicals to have second acts plus allow HOA's to fine or jail people for growing vegetables. Craziness, i had fun researching this though.  Thanks for watching!

    EXCAVATION: THE WAR ON DIRT - The Connor Larsen Show Episode 9

    I tried to dig out all the big old shrubs and stumps in my backyard, got poison ivy, and spent two full days using the wrong shovel before a friend handed me a pick and changed my life. Which got me thinking: I can't be the first guy to stand in a hole and go, "there has to be a better way to do this." This week i deep dived moving dirt, we go down the rabbit hole on the history of digging — the giant canals that countries threw millions of lives at, the ancient engineers who somehow moved water across hundreds of miles at exactly the right slope, and the crazy ways people used to do it. Check it out. 🎙️ New episodes every Tuesday. 👍 Subscribe so you don't miss the next one — next week I'm talking myself into tearing out my entire lawn. 🎤 LIVE: I'm in Austin opening for Dusty Slay at the Comedy Mothership, June 19–21.

    CRAIGSLIST : Why Craigslist Represents The Internet You Actually Want | Connor Larsen Show Episode 6

    HERE IS THE CORRECT EPISODE 6 AUDIO LINK. I accidentally uploaded episode 5. Thank you Nick for noticing and sending me a DM. thanks everybody for listening Connor's favorite website on the internet is Craigslist — it's ugly, it's been the same since 1996, and it's run by a 42-year-old dork named Craig who turned down billions to keep it that way. This week, Connor digs into why every other app you use got worse, why Craigslist didn't, and why the guy who could've been twelve times richer just stayed in customer service instead. A love letter to the last website on the internet that didn't sell you out.  Thanks for watching!
