  • This is the 99% invisible breakdown of the Power Broker.

  • I'm Roman Mars.

  • And I'm Eliot Kalin.

  • So today we're still in part six, the Lust for Power, covering chapters 33 and 34, pages 703 to 806 in my book.

  • And later in this episode, our special guest is Shiloh Frederick.

  • Born and raised in New York City, Shiloh is a writer and influencer who shares her love of the city's history and architecture on Instagram and TikTok.

  • Last year, she chronicled her rather ambitious plan to read the power broker in 30 days.

  • And her viral videos about her endeavor ended up making some real change in the city.

  • Specifically, some real change to some Moses designed ornamentation in the city.

  • But before we get to all that, we wanted to announce something very special.

  • On October 7th, Elliot and I are talking with the great Robert Caro live on stage at the New York Historical Society.

  • It's part of the society's special exhibit dedicated to the 50th anniversary of the Power Broker.

  • And I am so incredibly excited.

  • I cannot wait to see this exhibit and I can't wait to talk to Robert Caro live in person.

  • It's a dream come true.

  • If it had to happen in front of an audience, I guess that's even better.

  • There are witnesses that can tell me, yes, that did happen.

  • You and Roman did get to talk face to face with Robert Caro.

  • So be one of those witnesses.

  • Be part of that moment.
