You should listen to 99% Invisible
You should listen to podcasts. Yes you. Get out of the pandora/spotify bubble of listening to only the same few things and get some variety in your commute and day. You don’t have to only listen to them, but it’s a default app on an iphone now. What’s stopping you?
You have to start somewhere, and 99% is a great place to do that. It’s kind of about architecture but more about appreciation. I haven’t heard many episodes go above the 20 minute mark. So even if you walk up stairs to work, you can easily get through an episode a day.
Three people have mentioned that they are listening to podcasts now, after asking me for years why I love them. All of them, 2 developers, and a video game enthusiast retail store manager, liked 99% and are listening to it now.
Here are a few episodes you should check out:
- Episode 129: Thomassons - 16 minutes
- Episode 124: Longbox - 18 minutes
