    Hello everyone and welcome to the Architecture Social Show. So round London I go to some cool events and occasionally, oh, quite a lot. I meet these really cool people in the architecture scene who host events, who add to the conversation, and I wanna download their brains and their experience, get them on the podcast so that we can learn from them.
