Now he builds structures that hold half a million pounds, staffs his crews like hockey lines and goes to sleep thinking about right angles.

InfraSound is a podcast from reVerb Communications that goes beneath the surface of major infrastructure projects. Hosted by Glenn Kubish and Roberta Farion, the show brings you into candid conversations with engineers, consultants and project insiders.

Each episode explores the untold stories, hidden challenges and behind-the-scenes decisions that shape the projects we depend on but rarely see in detail. From technical hurdles to community impacts, InfraSound offers a front-row seat to the human and technical sides of building our world.

The InfraSound Playlist

New tracks added with every episode.

"Genesis goes the extra mile to build a world for the listener, and then breaks your heart. A super heavy narrative that makes you grateful for people who worked and sacrificed to build things we take for granted."

"Not only is it one of my favourite songs of all time, but it's all about connecting people in their communities."

"I feel like the workers are 'taking care of business, everyday.'"

"'Concrete jungle where dreams are made of...' It's an ode to the infrastructure of New York City and how it shapes dreams."

"I like to support local artists."

"The lyrics remind me of how working in construction isn't a 9-5. You push through until the job is done."

"It's wicked funny and it's from the point of view of the guy on a pipe in the ditch."

For good measure, we've thrown in some other great tunes about infrastructure and the people who dream it, build it and maintain it. And tunes to celebrate each podcast episode. Thank you for the scaffolding episode, Leland Jackman, and for "The Scaffolder's Wife" Mark Knopfler!

Our new InfraSound playlist on Spotify

There is a beat to construction. The big instruments (looking at you, excavators, bulldozers and backhoes) and the smaller ones (hammers, drills and saws) combine to produce refrains of percussion wherever earth is moved and infrastructure assembled.

InfraSound uncovers the human side of infrastructure: the decisions, experiences and people shaping the built world around us.

So it made sense to ask the reVerb team and podcast guests for their favourite infrastructure songs as we do some building of our own on the InfraSound Spotify playlist.
