Cheeky highway signs, Jane Fonda’s surprising side hustle, a dynamite twist on legacy, and the Greeks’ ideal foot obsession—expect the unexpected.
This is 99% invisible.
I'm Roman Mars.
Everything outside might be frightful, but a new batch of mini stories are here to make the next 30 minutes or so absolutely delightful.
So grab something warm, gather the kids around the old wireless transceiver and enjoy stories about funny and surprisingly controversial highway signs.
Jane Fonda saving you money on rent, the most famous act of contrition of all time.
Or possibly the greatest PR comeback of all time, depending on who you're asking.
And we learn together that the most accomplished artists of the classical world have all agreed that I, your host, have the most beautiful feet that a person can have.
Let's go.

Roman.
It is the most wonderful time of the year.
Great to be here.
It's a delight to have you.
So what is the story you have for us today?
So, Roman, I know I'm always comparing America to Canada as resident Canadian guy on the show.

Look, my New Year's resolution, I'm going to tone down the Canada stuff for next year on the show.
But I don't think you have to, but you do what feels right to you.
