Car Free Midwest

Thank you to the producers of this podcast for introducing us to voices out of sanity in our car-centric culture. We need more podcasts like this one, speaking, the plain truth, that we cannot afford an automotive society any longer.

I’ve just discovered this podcast. As a life long Omaha resident, and new-ish homeowner in Gifford Park, I am so happy this podcast exists. Just 3 episodes in and this podcast is so uplifting for me, on so many levels. I am so thankful for the work you two are doing and the voices you are uplifting in the city.

I was really hoping to love this podcast. It discusses such an interesting topic, one which I am hoping to learn more about. However, it is hard to listen due to the always present political comments. I also love politics, but that isn’t what I came here for. It still offers good content, politics aside!

As a bike commuter, I have been enjoying hearing the hosts discuss paths of improvement in Omaha (though their discussions can easily apply to any growing city facing the same issues.) It is a diverse city that has so much potential for being both bike friendly and accessible for marginalized groups, but could benefit from people like Josh and Sarah getting these discussions going. I also enjoy that Sarah brings up accessibility issues that have been neglected by the city (like snow removal for those in wheelchairs, for example.). Great stuff, keep up the good work and thoughtful discussions!
