There's Something Missing In The World's Most Liveable Cities
from Don't Praise The Machine (DPTM)
The 2026 EIU Global Liveability Index has dropped, and Alex and John have a combined 60+ years living in this year's top 10 — which makes them uniquely qualified to ask: is "liveable" actually the same thing as good?This week: why the famous rankings are secretly a corporate tool for calculating executive danger pay, what the criteria hilariously refuse to measure (fun, weather, goth scenes, the price of cigarettes), and why the world's "best" cities, New York, Paris, Berlin, aren't anywhere near the list. 🛎 Get bonus episodes, early episodes, and exclusive goodies while supporting DPTM!
