British robo-wine and fixing rural transport
Some, er, good news because of climate change – and why we need a "Mini Switzerland"
On YIMBY Pod this week:
James gets annoyed his new build was saddled with old technology.
Martin tells the story of the surprisingly futuristic British wine industry
And we speak to Thomas Ableman about his proposal for Mini-Switzerland, a plan that could make rural trains and buses… actually good?!
James’s newsletter is here, his latest picking a fight with Dorian Lynskey is here.
Martin’s newsletter is here, and his latest video is here.
Don’t forget to tell your friends about the pod – and leave us a nice review on Apple Podcasts!
YIMBY Pod is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, Substack and hopefully wherever you get your podcasts!
