Roman Mars: It's fun to imagine a bunch of beavers floating gently down in boxes, seeding the landscape. 99% Invisible was produced this week by Chris Baroube, Martin Gonzalez, Kurt Kollsted, and our intern, Olivia Green. This is her last week with us as an intern. We are part of the Stitcher and SiriusXM podcast family. You can find the show and join discussions about it on Facebook.
The whole conceit of this show is that if look at the world in the right way, you’ll see stories everywhere. Some of the stories are epic power struggles chronicling the construction of a famous skyscraper or the founding of a city; but other stories are more modest, smaller in scope and scale. We call those mini-stories and they're part of an ongoing, end-of-the-year tradition in which 99pi producers and friends of the show talk to host Roman Mars about something cool and fun that you can tell your friends or family about during a holiday get together.
You’ll hear about a very, very long escalator! Beavers dropping from the sky! We’ll hear from Janet, Miss Jackson if you’re nasty! Plus a visit from the queen!
