SUP – The Super Urban Podcast is a conversation about cities and how they’re designed; how we imagine them and how we could re-imagine them. Cities are the most complex things ever constructed and they are also our everyday, barely noticed environment. We’re here for a talk about cities from as many perspectives as possible. Each episode will focus on a specific theme, blending diverse viewpoints and engaging with broader contexts like history, economics, politics, and current social issues. The Super Urban Podcast is hosted by Ian Nazareth, Graham Crist and Christine Phillips.
