New Episode of 99% Invisible: "The Infantorium"

I’ve spent the last months fervently researching and writing about a wild piece of history I’ve been obsessed with for a while. If you want to know why this South Minneapolis apartment building used to be called “The Infantorium”—and how incubators and the premature babies they kept alive spent four decades as an amusement park sideshow—take a listen to my new episode of 99% Invisible. What a treat to be able to work with one of my favorite podcasts on one of my favorite pieces of history!
