Real conversations. Hosted by a teenager trying to understand the world she’s about to inherit. I’m Naomi Cohen, and I created Realtopia — a real estate podcast for teenagers, by a teenager. What began as a podcast about real estate evolved into conversations about something even bigger: how places shape people, and how people shape places. Because real estate was never just about buildings. It’s about the future of places — cities, housing, belonging, design, community, and the people shaping them. Each episode, I ask architects, developers, researchers, founders, and urban thinkers the questions teenagers are not supposed to ask. Welcome to Realtopia.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-22T06:18:36.698309+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/realtopia-real-estate-for-teens-6812367"},"episode":{"title":"Episode 14: Prof. Greg Clark (Advisor to 400+ Cities) — Cracking the DNA of Great Cities","slug":"episode-14-prof-greg-clark-advisor-to-400-cities-cracking-the-dna-of-great-cities","published_at":"2026-06-08T21:06:26+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/realtopia-real-estate-for-teens-6812367/episode-14-prof-greg-clark-advisor-to-400-cities-cracking-the-dna-of-great-cities","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/realtopia-real-estate-for-teens-6812367","url":"https://www.spreaker.com/episode/episode-14-prof-greg-clark-advisor-to-400-cities-cracking-the-dna-of-great-cities--72424561","audio_url":"https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/72424561/episode_14_greg_clark.mp3","summary":"Why does one city feel instantly recognizable while another could be almost anywhere? In this episode of Realtopia, Naomi sits down with Professor Greg Clark — advisor to more than 400 cities across six continents, author, and co-host of The DNA of Cities — to explore what gives places their identity and why the most successful cities of the future may not be the ones that grow fastest, but the ones that become more fully themselves. Together, they unpack the idea of a city’s DNA — the combination of inherited geography, historical choices, culture, institutions, and new adaptations that shape how places evolve. The conversation moves from global competition to local belonging, asking a bigger question: How do we build cities people can actually imagine staying in? In this episode: The DNA of a city: endowed, inherited, and acquired traits Why global sameness is the great risk to cities Turin and the cities that defy their reputation Building a belonging index: social capital and the social contract Affordability vs. global competitiveness and the case for 50% affordable housing Climate, AI, and the just transition","meta_description":"Why does one city feel instantly recognizable while another could be almost anywhere?
