The podcast 99% Invisible is doing a series of monthly episodes on The Power Broker. I don’t live in NY and I don’t pretend to really understand NY, but it’s so interesting to listen to the hosts as they work their way through Caro’s massive book. I really enjoy it and just wish the episodes were more frequent than once a month.



I can't endorse this more. I wasn't familiar with Robert Caro until this series started (I had heard of the LBJ biography but hadn't looked into it).

The interviews at the end of each episode is super insightful about how the structures of power continue to operate in the current day.
