  1. 99percentinvisible.org/episode For those like me who are concerned about the status of #ConLaw and what #USPolitics is doing in this troubling new authoritarian era, this is wonderful news. Though ironically I found a lot of this more disturbing than I expected. #podcast #WhatTrumpCanTeachUsAboutConLaw #99pi #RomanMars

  2. #MentalHealth It sounds like it must be really nice inside #RomanMars head. Next time I go to therapy I’m going to play an episode of 99pi and explain that I want to feel like he sounds.

    I first heard about "99 Percent Invisible" from former #Mythbuster Adam Savage. It's hard to define, but the blurry focus is on design (from fashion to skyscrapers) and the systems that make the world work, but it's much, much more. It's fascinating, informative, and often dryly funny. Host Roman Mars is a treasure.

  6. This morning I finished "The 99% invisible city: a field guide to the hidden world of everyday design" by Roman Mars and Kurt Kohlstedt. This is a book based on the 99% Invisible Podcast. The book was good and interesting, but I'd heard most of the stories on the podcast, and I like the podcast format better since it's a bit less formal with more banter. I highly recommend the podcast, and I also recommend the book, especially if you're not into the podcast.

    You can find more out about the podcast at 99percentinvisible.org/.
