“This show is entertaining and engaging. They hosts look at building architecture through case studies of important architects such as GaudÍ and Scarpa. Plus there are book reviews like Gibson’s Neuromancer which focus on the spaces and buildings.”

“This is a wonderful podcast. I am an architecture student whose curriculum is extremely design focused. This podcast is my self-assigned historical and theoretical supplement to that training and it succeeds completely. I imagine I would like it very much even if I were not a student, but...”Read full review »

“Hello ! I found your episode on Loos’s Ornament and crime very useful , interesting, and necessary. Why useful and necessary ?

“It’s educative; but seemingly unstructured, you never know what’s around the corner, and every episode surprises in its own, novel ways. The fun and enjoyment is dripping of it.
If only architecture wasn’t so horribly unsuitable for an audio medium, but that kind of adds to the absurd casual...”Read full review »

“I have several dozens of podcasts that I occasionally listen to, many of them about architecture, but this one really stands out.
I enjoy much that the hosts don’t hesitate to go into deep specifics about the buildings discussed and often end up judging them as “strong” or “bad”.
The last 11...”Read full review »

“This a wide ranging series and the result is mixed. I found the Monastery episodes very interesting becuase they were informed by a deep understanding of the historical and social context. The absence of informed contextualisation made the Jane Jacobs episodes superfical. Some hits, some misses.”

“Hilariously snobby and British this conversational deconstruction of the literature of architecture is savage (though probably warranted) but most of all a heart warming, smart, and screwball appreciation of ideas in and around the built world.”
