Welcome to the Contrafabulists podcast, Kin Lane and Audrey Watters' (somewhat) weekly discussion of the latest technology (and politics of technology) news.

In this episode, we talk about Google's plans to "revolutionize" Toronto (and the implications of technology companies' interest in the public sphere).

Here are the stories we referenced:

• Sidewalk Labs
• "Google's Founders Wanted to Shape a City. Toronto Is Their Chance." via The New York Times
• "With Toronto, Alphabet looks to revolutionize city-building" via The Globe and Mail

Feedback is welcome. (You should email Kin with it though, not Audrey.)
