Customer Reviews
A classic title
For years, 99pi has been one of the best podcasts available. Definitely recommended
Always interesting
Well-written, -edited and -produced, I seem always to learn something, even when I know a lot about a topic. Only slightly relevant: love Roman Mars’ voice!
Fun and Informative
This a fun and informative podcast for everyone not just design geeks.
