Description

In episode 45 of Fly on the Wall, Brendan sits down with Richard Florida, an urbanist and the author of "Rise of the Creative Class," a book which identifies the emergence of a new social class that is reshaping the twenty-first century's economy, geography, and workplace. The two discuss how Richard’s upbringing in New Jersey shaped his career and drove him to make sense of why some cities thrive and others don’t. They also discuss how the pandemic and work-from-home era has caused a demographic reshuffling, and which cities stand to benefit.
