Chris and Phil take on the suddenly trendy idea of “house burping” and ask where opening the windows actually helps, and where it falls short. They talk through Lüften, CO2 buildup, VOCs, ERVs, HRVs, and why fresh air matters for comfort, health, and energy performance.

Building Sustainably In A Housing Crisis
Chris and Phil take on the housing crisis from inside the design and building world, asking where architects, codes, sustainability standards, and local politics are helping or getting in the way. They get into housing shortage, NIMBY resistance, affordability tradeoffs, and why “heads in beds” still has to line up with durability, health, and long term performance.
