Reposting this for the @theallinpod since the discussion came up this week on affordability - student loans, health care, housing.
Some fairly easy fixes that could help affordability immediately, especially for young people: 1. Make student loans dischargeable in bankruptcy 2. Allow people to purchase a true catastrophic health insurance plan again 3. Implement yield curve control, as was done from…
“We just can’t build cities like we used to” Meanwhile in Guatemala, built 2003:
New podcast: How to Unleash the Swarm Andrew Burleson talks about adaptive zoning, and embracing continuous incremental change Andrew Burleson asks us to think about, “what is the system that creates space for people to live?” Systems thinking may seem terribly wonky, and in…
If we had any sense of urgency and seriousness about affordability and helping younger people, here's a few things that could be done right away.

Seems like a modernized version of Curitiba’s and Bogotá’s BRT, yes?
Smart track trams in Zhuzhou. The construction cost is 1/3 of that of a tram. Take 300-500 people. It was first run in Zhuzhou, Hunan Province in 2018. Now it is used by several cities.😊😊😊
For @geoffreydgraham and @booksandbbq - thoroughly enjoyed the podcast on the South. And I’d love to audit the bbq class. But my guys, can we actually have a bbq discussion without talking about Kansas City bbq? It’s a little like talking about college football but neglecting to…
New podcast: Talking Abundance and Strong Towns Seth Zeren plays bridge-builder, talking about how these two movements can complement and enhance each other Right off the top, I must say I always enjoy talking with @seth_zeren. Seth fits the mold of most of my favorite people,…
Trying something new for the podcast - Ask me a question, I'll try to answer it. Will record later this week=
Putting this out again, especially for people knowledgeable in finance What if your mortgage / rate was portable? How would that work, or how can we make it happen?
Ignore the clickbait headline in the link, but the idea discussed in here of: What if your mortgage interest rate was portable?? Is incredibly fascinating. Have no idea how that actually works in the world of banking, but if all those 3% mortgages could be ported to a…

Today, history rolls forward. From the River Market to UMKC, we move together, we grow together, we rise together. The #kcstreetcar Main St Extension isn't just new tracks, it's new connections & a new chapter for our city. This is what it looks like when we move KC
One observation from a weekend getaway to Exclesior Springs, to stay at the terrific @ElmsHotelandSpa — A lot of our weekend getaway small towns in the Midwest are organized almost entirely around eating and drinking. I like to eat and drink, don’t get me wrong. But these…
The evolution of Atlanta over the last 20-30 years is one of the most overlooked stories in the planning and development world.
Crazy that it only took 20 years for Midtown Atlanta to effectively eliminate all of its vacant parking lots.
New podcast: Reflecting on Leon Krier Dan Parolek of Opticos Design on Seaside, Las Vegas, and Leon's midnight faxes A few months ago, we lost Leon Krier, one of the all-time greats in the world of architecture and urban design. I’m joined by @DanielParolek of @OpticosDesign to…
Asked a class of architecture students last night (4th year, so not newbies), how many had heard of Leon Krier. Not a single hand. Interesting data point - I hope that's an outlier. Krier is among the five most influential people in architecture & design of the last 50 years.
New podcast: Reframing the Housing Discussion Chuck Marohn and I talk housing finance, mismatches in the supply-demand conversation, and where we see the low-hanging fruit @clmarohn of @StrongTowns joins me in the studio to dive deeply into the world of housing finance and…
Episode 100: What is Your "Why?" Jason Carter-Solomon, Shomari Benton and I have some fun, and also get personal, as we look backwards and look forwards in our own lives and careers I’ve been an avid podcast listener since the early days of podcasting. It’s probably one area…
People seriously underestimate how good Paul McCartney & Wings was
