City issues podcasts and podcast episodes

Postby Anondson » August 29th, 2018, 8:09 am

There are a few podcasts I have time to follow that are on city related issues. Strongtowns, Aaron Renn, occasional 99% Invisible, etc.

A new podcast started on micromobility.

It’s on the unbundling of car use by bike rentals, scooters, peddle assist bikes. Etc.

There Goes the Neighborhood is a good podcast series. From WNYC and KCRW. Zoning, gentrification, renting, etc.

Jacobin Magazine’s podcast The Dig had a recent episode they titled “Against Idiocy”.
https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a ... 0434230299

It covered the topics public space, segregation, transit disinvestment, and the car’s destruction of cities. How to accommodate the car, everyone was spread out so far the car became necessary to live in the city, requiring so much car dependency by nearly everyone.

Then drifts into how bike lanes and new apartments change central cities into playgrounds of the bourgeois (not the poor) who had abandoned the city earlier before.

One of my favorite things about the State Fair is how much great media comes out of it. Here are a bunch of good recent episodes:

Mayors Carter and Frey on MPR News
Governor Walz on 1A
1A on Minnesota's affordable housing crisis and solutions
1A on Minnesota's craft beer industry
