Really enjoy this podcast as someone who’s from and studied architecture in Ireland but works abroad.
It has a great focus on Irish Architecture but with a wide and varied scope in how it covers this topic. I also appreciate how it places Irish architecture within a more global context rather than a strictly local or national context.
Keep up the great work Emmett.

Great range of guests and topics covered. It’s an outlet for conversations that are happening on the ground in Ireland to be discussed openly in my headphones. I really recommend this podcast to lovers of architecture / people interested in housing

Apple Podcasts5Paul D IrelandIreland4 years ago - What Do Buildings Do All Day?
What Do Buildings Do All Day? Is an excellent, well produced, series of podcasts covering a diverse and relevant range of topics in and around architecture and urbanism, relevant in both an Irish and wider context. Emmett Scanlon is an intelligent listener and questioner. Very highly recommended.
