I’ve been listening to this podcast for roughly the past 6 years (interviews drop on Mon. & Thurs. mornings). Nearly every conversation Marc has with a guest leaves me feeling like I’ve learned more about a stranger and oddly more about myself. Listen
Note: I fast-forward through the first 10-15mins of monologue & ads
It’s once again Denver’s transit hub, now connecting trains to DIA (airport) and light rail around the city. It’s also quite the bustling building with hotel, restaurants, etc. Check out more here.
I like this fun picture of Saarinen working on the model for the iconic TWA terminal at JKF Airport. Check out more photos and drawings of the finished project here.
If I were a filmmaker, this is the book I’d make into a movie. See more novels by Michael Chabon here.
They were lightning in a bottle. Listen.
Since 2014, this fairly simple idea has diverted over 350 roll-off dumpsters worth of garbage (more than 1 million lbs.) from the Chesapeake Bay. Cities around the world are beginning to invest in this solution. Read more here.
Kahn’s projects are architectural master works. The two projects I’ve visited so far (Salk Institute and the Exeter Library) made the hair on the back of my neck stand-up. See more about the Salk Institute here.
Anonymous personal secrets mailed-in to a guy named Frank, sometimes funny, sometimes tragic. I can’t help but check in here from time to time.
Check out her inventive use of materials in various projects here.
I love the incredible range of dance. See Wim Wender’s dynamic trailer about the work of Pina Bausch.
We love how Kelton Osborn (long-time friend) explores how things fit together. Check out more of his work here.
The untitled film stills created by Cindy Sherman are some of my favorites. See more here.
We love what our friends, Angelo and Nancy, are working on at Cadence Design Studio. See more here.

Being John Malkovich, Adaptation, Her and on and on. Spike Jonze has directed over 100 movies or videos. Love his vision and energy.
Love the transformation of this old auto parts store into a live/work studio space. See more here.
This is one of those books I refer to a couple times a year. It looks at how humans create dwellings and more, through an anthropological lens - studying early hut techniques to community water and sanitation. It’s just a good reminder that people have been doing this for a long time and there are no right answer but lots of great shared ideas.
This painting was housed in the Folk Art Museum (NYC). I love how it captures the dynamic energy of the sleepless city. Check out more paintings and Ralph Fasanella’s bio here.
This museum (across from MoMA) closed controversially after only being open for 13 years, however, it’s one of the more thoughtful building in which I’ve been. Check out more projects here by the impressive husband and wife and team - Tod Williams & Billie Tsien.
I love how David Hockney embraced and ran with the photo collage. See more here.
