358- The Anthropocene Reviewed




99% Invisible show

Summary: The Anthropocene is the current geological age, in which human activity has profoundly shaped the planet and its biodiversity. On <a href="https://www.wnycstudios.org/shows/anthropocene-reviewed" target="_blank">The Anthropocene Reviewed</a>, John Green rates different facets of the human-centered planet on a five-star scale. This week 99% Invisible is featuring two episodes of The Anthropocene Reviewed in which John Green dissects: pennies, the Piggly Wiggly grocery store chain, a 17,000-year-old cave painting, and the Taco Bell breakfast menu. Plus, Roman talks with John about the show, sports, and all the things we love now, but hated as teenagers. <a href="https://99percentinvisible.org/?p=28901&amp;post_type=episode" target="_blank">The Anthropocene Reviewed</a> Subscribe to The Anthropocene Reviewed on <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-anthropocene-reviewed/id1342003491" target="_blank">Apple Podcasts</a> or <a href="https://radiopublic.com/the-anthropocene-reviewed-Wk2ZOd" target="_blank">RadioPublic</a>
