Customer Reviews
attracts me
Introductory but includes fairly depth of discussion and long enough time to talk. you can save $ to trip to their lectures. Due to the recording quality It was hard time to listen to questions that some interviewers asked. And a few questions didn't make sense.
Great podcast!
Well worth a listen. I have really been enjoying these over the past few months. As someone with no background in architecture, landscape architecture, or planning, this podcast has been a very friendly introduction to some very interesting practitioners in those disciplines.
Keep them coming Craig! They are much appreciated.
