Coming 3/17, Service Request is a new series that starts small. A call to 311, a trafic jam, a single flipped switch. We then trace that moment through the networks that keep a city running.
From 99% Invisible and Campside Media, listen to Service Request on the 99% Invisible feed 🟨

Really enjoyed talking to @stacyfmitchell.bsky.social Lina Khan, and some lovely folks in Woonsocket, RI for this episode of @99pi.org

Oh man I have a barber here in Providence that’s no less than an hour behind schedule for every appt. But the fades are too clean! The attention to detail once I’m actually in the chair too great! I’m three years in so there’s no going back. You still have a chance. Save yourself.
Hey there, the cover image for the story isn’t the Almacs in Woonsocket (it’s Lincoln). I could only find one photo of the Almacs in Park Square. I just updated our web page for the episode with it. Hope seeing it brings back more good memories! 99percentinvisible.org/episode/634-...
