Over at Unfrozen, Dan Safarik and I are keeping the faith — and a regular podcast schedule — with a pair of episodes based on my spring break trip to London. The latter episode is an especially fun one: back-to-back readings of essays inspired by our respective walking tours with the former master planner of the City of London Corporation, Peter Rees. The next time you’re in London, if you can find him, you should do the same. Show notes below:
Episode 21 (above): Greg, fresh from a trip to London, shares with Dan updates and reminiscences of the hale old town in the throes of ever-later capitalism, doffing hats to its raconteur-in-chief, Peter Wynne Rees.
Episode 22 (below): Building on the momentum of Episode 21, this special episode is a back-to-back Rees attack, with Greg and Dan both relaying their respective reports from the City of London’s raconteur-in-chief, from 2017 and 2013, respectively.
And just for good measure, here’s last year’s podcast with the man himself!
