This week we’re joined by Linda Samuels, associate professor of urban design at Washington University in St. Louis, to talk about her book "Infrastructural Optimism." We chat about how growth for growth’s sake is not the answer, learn from postmodernist urbanism, and why systems should be more connected.

Talking to the author of "Feminist City" about how our public spaces could transform our society for the better — and even improve our friendships.

This week, we're talking about the disconnect between techno-optimists and urbanists in climate change approach (whoa!).

Let's talk about early childhood education, housing, and connecting transportation to community development.

We have met the enemy and it is the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices.

Talking to the new Urban Institute honcho about projects added to his transit inventory, the new infrastructure bill and a look back at our predictions from last year.
