This week in the podcast that is and isn’t about design, we look back to a halcyon time which may or may not have existed*. We talk about the triumph of Jeremy Deller’s latest art project, the London Museum of Brands and Lego’s latest nostalgic model of a VW Beetle. Nostalgia is our topic of the week. Other chocolate-based confectionaries are available. Do they still make Topics**? Watchmen is our book of the month.
