In this episode of ITE Talks Transportation, sustainability mobility consultant Manuel Calvo discusses how Seville rapidly transformed into a bike-friendly city by building an 80-kilometer protected bike lane network in just a few years. The initiative succeeded due to strong political will, public support, and strategic design focused on everyday users rather than just avid cyclists, and a fast, coordinated rollout. As a result, cycling became a mainstream mode of transportation in Seville, reshaping public spaces and changed how residents view urban mobility.

Recently, on an episode of the Netflix show Everybody's Live with John Mulaney, the subject turned to bike lanes. Or rather, the subject was turned to bike lanes by Natasha Lyonne. The actress, writer, director and producer said that bike lanes should be “shut down” and claimed that there is no space for them in Manhattan. Journalist Alissa Walker of Torched was on Everybody's Live as a “public transit expert” to talk about Uber, but soon found herself — as a public-transit-riding Los Angeles resident — defending bike lanes and explaining the rational apportionment of urban space to some pretty famous New Yorkers, all of them brilliant and talented. So why is it that otherwise intelligent people often say unintelligent things about bikes? Why do nearly all conversations about transportation, even one that's not about bicycles, devolve into NIMBY-style complaints about cyclists? What can advocates learn from a conversation that, if you strip away the big stars and the studio audience, was indistinguishable from a community board meeting? ***Our new book, Life After Cars: Freeing Ourselves from the Tyranny of the Automobile, will be published on October 21, 2025 by Thesis, an imprint of Penguin Random House.

With a rich background spanning roles as Commissioner of Transportation in both Washington, D.C., and Chicago, and as a former executive at Zipcar, Gabe brings a multifaceted perspective on urban innovation and transportation electrification.We delve into the inception and achievements of the Joint Office, discussing how it bridged the Department of Energy and the Department of Transportation to deploy a nationwide electric vehicle charging network. Gabe shares insights into the challenges and successes of this unprecedented interagency collaboration, including the establishment of uniform charging standards and the promotion of equitable access to EV infrastructure.Beyond his federal tenure, Gabe reflects on his entrepreneurial ventures, such as co-founding CityFi, and his authorship of "Start-Up City," offering lessons on fostering public-private partnerships and driving systemic change in urban environments. We also discuss the current state of EV infrastructure, the importance of resilient and user-friendly charging networks, and the role of innovation in shaping sustainable cities.Join us for a thought-provoking conversation that traverses the intersections of technology, policy, and human-centered design in the quest for a cleaner, more connected future.

Episode 19 touches on the bizarre reasons why the City of Winnipeg isn't advertising a Public Works Committee event, more federal election campaign news and views, and more evidence Elections Canada is trying to deceive the public that their "preventative measures" stop non-citizens from getting a ballot and voting.Part 1- Late on Wednesday, a City of Winnipeg representative emailed Marty Gold about his Sun column, Public Works presentation on Bike Lanes, Lower Speed Limits Kept Hush-Hush.The column revealed that while the Saturday morning event is framed as a “robust presentation” about the $96 Million councillors intend to spend on “Active Transportation and Road Safety in the next 6 years,” the people running the show seem to only want to hear from supporters and beneficiaries of their plans. Case in point- Committee Chair Janice Lukes specifically invited the bike lobby, but not WiseUP Winnipeg that represents 14,000 drivers. As Todd Dube suggested, that's one way politicians can use tax dollars to set up a robust echo chamber."It is not a Public Service-led event, and we do not promote information sessions organized and led by an elected official," explained the email. If you think that doesn't make sense, wait till you hear the rest of the explanation of how "there is no component of public engagement or feedback-seeking at this event" and how Marty responded. 20.15 Part 2 starts off with some reaction to Sun columns. Hear comments on the Public Works info session, the injection site Town Hall held by Point Douglas residents, and the passing of Con Lynch, a venerated North Kildonan teacher with a deep connection to Marty's family.27.15 - Listeners and readers contribute tips and observations about the state of the federal campaign. Prospects for the NDP are looking bleak while the Conservatives are finally allowing local candidates to speak for themselves. Meanwhile, the Jew-haters have made their presence felt in Tuxedo, targeting Jewish Tory incumbent Marty Morantz. 34.10 Part 3 - A recent correspondence from Elections Canada revealed how the agency tries to fool Canadians into believing their lax ID practices don't open the door to non-citizens being handed a ballot. Listen to the Elections Canada memo sent to encourage tax preparers to add clients to the voting list. You'll wonder if the agency is only interested in padding voter rolls and not in protecting our democracy.

A federal judge has rejected New York City's request to force FEMA to immediately restore more than $80 million in migrant shelter funds. The city sued after the Trump administration pulled back the grant, citing gang activity at a shelter. The case will move forward, but for now, the funds remain withheld. Meanwhile, Democratic lawmakers went after Mayor Adams during a House Oversight hearing on sanctuary cities. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez questioned whether the Justice Department's decision to drop Adams' corruption charges was part of a quid pro quo with the White House. Also, New York City's Transportation Commissioner Ydanis Rodriguez says the protected bike lane on 6th Avenue in Manhattan is now complete, extending four miles through Midtown.

Second of two parts: Bike lanes are a contentious issue in the city, especially on Pine and Spruce Streets, the busiest in the city for cyclists. Mayor Cherelle Parker recently signed a law completely banning any vehicle from stopping in a bike lane. Cyclists say this keeps them safe, so they don't have to swerve into traffic to avoid parked cars. But some Center City residents say it's absurd to prevent them from easily accessing their homes. In the second of a two-part conversation, host Trenae Nuri talks with Leo Levinson, president of the Center City Residents' Association, about this change in Philly's traffic policy. Listen to yesterday's Feb. 24 episode for a different perspective from the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia.

I sit down 1-on-1 with Michael Schneider, “L.A.'s unapologetic biking evangelist” as he makes a fascinating case as to why Los Angeles needs to change its car culture to bike culture? We discuss the new bike lanes popping up all over, why they're always empty, and how he plans to spearhead converting all of us to two wheels! Michael is a reformed “car addict” and founder of Streets for All, the group that was front and center in pushing through Measure HLA, which mandates the city build its own bike and bus lanes.

The show opens with Jason “Mayhem” Miller reading the news including stories about Trump signing an executive order proclaiming there are only two biological sexes, Joe Biden pardoning his family and Dr. Fauci in his final minutes in office, and Sen. John Fetterman arriving at Trump's inauguration in a hoodie & shorts. Next, comedian Ari Shaffir returns to the show to discuss his new Netflix special “America's Sweetheart.” They also discuss how his recent success comes from his lack of caring, the renewed acceptance of offensive comedy, having sex in the trunk of a Volkswagen Jetta, and the pitfalls of dirty talk. Then, Adam & Ari react to clips of a British cyclist who refused to use the bike lane, Scott Galloway explaining why he bet $358k on Kamala to win, and an old “Man Show” sketch. They also talk about the gentrification of Ari's neighborhood in NY, Howie Mandel's popcorn bucket, and whether or not there was FBI mixed into the protestors on January 6th.
