This week we talk about the DEEPEST pool in the world - yes, that's a thing and it's seriously impressive, and yes of course it's in Dubai! We also look back at a Tomorrow's Build video where we chat (and debate) "Mini-Nuclear Reactors That Can be Built Anywhere" - AKA: small modular reactors (SMRs). Toward the end of the show we chat about the newly released images of the penthouse at NYC's Central Park Tower which is listed at $250M, AND a prototype terracotta system façade conceived by Buro Happold and Cookfox Architects that would create a habitat for birds, insects and plants in the heart of our cities. It all gets quite spicy.
