“This can be very good with the right guest, but on occasion I really miss a robust discussion. An example of both sides: the interview with Robert Frank was terrific, with Frank expounding upon his ideas very concretely. The episode on Market Urbanism took half an hour to even start to get concrete, before that it was unclear what was being discussed and no challenges were mentioned: two guys who agreed basically agreed unspecifically for 30 minutes. I had and still have no strong view on the actual topic of urban housing policy, but felt I listened to a paid ad from private developers. They may have had compelling points eventually, but after 30 minutes of little substance I checked out. So... dip in occasionally, but probably not a “go to” podcast on a regular basis.”
