The War on Cars *was* an exceptional program, but as the ads crept in and the length of those ads got outrageous, it's now a lot more cringe than can be tolerated.
So many other indie podcasts out there have managed to stay ad-free or keep it reasonable but not this one.
A lot of great interviews and guest providing an interesting insight into their domain. Unfortunately, the episodes become more and more bloated with ads. Currently, the first 20% of the episode are ads plus a little bit of introduction. I understand that everyone needs money to live but its getting unbearable.
Unfortunately this show is anti-human. It advocates for the opposition of Tesla Full Self-Driving, which will single-handedly save tens of thousands of lives due to reduced mistakes eliminating road-rage.
Great source of urbanist info
That’s no exaggeration. The experience and expression on what we’ve been taught to tolerate as Americans is clearly laid out on this show in unparalleled detail with just the right amount of humor.
