From the origins of fortune cookies to the reasons why Freud preferred the couch to the armchair, from how revolving doors came into being to the design evolutions of cities, 99% Invisible (http://99percentinvisible.org/) takes the listener through the inventions, ideas and objects that we experience, without really knowing about them.
A series of podcasts that began “way back” in 2010, which remains one of the best loved and one of the most frequently downloaded from iTunes.
