In this episode, we talk about the Trump Administration's full-on financial assault on all the modes of transportation we hold dear here at The War on Cars. Biking, walking, public transit—basically, anything deemed “hostile to cars” or that has something to do with sustainability and equity is under attack.

Welcome to episode 184 of the Gnar Couch Podshow. We braved rare severe Utah thunderstorms, insane traffic, and stuffed our bikes in Corvettes this weekend to bring you Bienvenido Aguado, who shares everything from his front flip stories to how he manages to keep things fun when the pressure's on. As always, there's some friendly roasting, plenty of self-deprecating humor, and a healthy dose of just figuring it out as we go. We get into what it's really like to train for Rampage, the weirdness of telling someone your real name at a coffee shop, and weigh good vibes vs podiums. If you're here for polished interviews, you've taken a wrong turn. But if you want a look at the mountain bike scene that's raw, real, and maybe a little ridiculous, you're in the right place.

We've got a strong biking community here in Pittsburgh, and some avid riders want to see a bike lane added to Penn Avenue. That proposal's gotten major pushback; one group in the Strip District is even suing the city over the change. But since we all need to share the road with each other, executive producer Mallory Falk's talking with Bike Pittsburgh's education manager Ted King-Smith. He's sharing how bikers can smoothly navigate Pittsburgh's hills and bridges — plus, what bikers and drivers need to know so we can all get around safely together.

The new school year means that once again some kids are walking or biking through neighborhoods and on busy streets to get to class. Safe Routes to School is a nationwide, federally funded initiative that works to educate and encourage students to bike and walk to school safely. There are Safe Routes to School programs across Oregon, including one serving students in the Salem-Keizer School District. The Salem-Keizer Safe Routes to School program started five years ago, but because of the pandemic, and the inability to reach students in schools, it didn’t really take off until fall 2022 when Beth Schmidt was hired to lead it. Since then, Schmidt has worked with the district and other partners to teach bus, pedestrian and bike safety, including PE classes that started last year in partnership with Cycle Oregon to help kids learn how to ride bikes and follow the rules of the road. Next month, the Portland-based nonprofit The Street Trust will be giving Schmidt an award for her efforts to advocate for the successful passage of SB 450, which Gov. Tina Kotek signed into law in June. It designates Nov. 14 as Ruby Bridges Walk to School Day in Oregon to honor Bridges’ courage in helping end school segregation in the U.S. Schmidt joins us to talk about her work in Salem and Keizer to make streets safer for students.
Are you curious about the latest innovations in sustainable agriculture? I recently caught up with Charlie Guy, CEO of Let Us Grow, to discuss the fascinating world of advanced aeroponics and its potential to revolutionize greenhouse farming.Charlie shared insights on Let Us Grow's journey from vertical farming to focusing on aeroponics technology for greenhouses. He explained how their advanced aeroponics system offers significant advantages over traditional hydroponic methods, including increased yields, improved plant health, and reduced water usage. Charlie also touched on the company's expansion into global markets and their efforts to educate both industry professionals and the public about the benefits of controlled environment agriculture.We delved into the challenges faced by the vertical farming industry and how Let Us Grow has adapted to changing market conditions. Charlie emphasized the importance of collaboration within the industry and highlighted their partnerships with established greenhouse builders and system integrators. He also discussed their community outreach efforts, such as the Bristol Basil Company initiative, which demonstrates the potential of local food production using advanced growing techniques.Throughout our conversation, Charlie provided valuable insights into the future of controlled environment agriculture and the role of aeroponics in creating more sustainable and resilient food systems. If you're interested in the intersection of technology and agriculture, or simply curious about where your food comes from, this episode offers a fascinating glimpse into the cutting-edge world of advanced growing methods.Thanks to Our SponsorsCEA Summit East - https://indoor.ag/cea-summit-east-2025/Indoor AgCon - https://indoor.ag/Key Takeaways5:07 Shifting focus to glasshouses and partnerships11:40 Biking to GreenTech conference and industry events16:44 Building relationships with government agencies20:21 Bristol Basil Company and local food initiatives28:12 BBC Radio 4 feature on sustainable growing34:57 Challenges of running a company in this environment39:06 Future plans and global expansion goals44:01 Closing thoughts on collaboration in indoor farmingTweetable Quotes"We've taken the rolling bench architecture widely used in the greenhouse industry and integrated our advanced aeroponics technology into it. This means we can partner with numerous Dutch large greenhouse builders to deliver these systems, providing the smarts while they handle the delivery.""There's no point in doing vertical farming unless it's powered by renewable energy. It doesn't make sense from an environmental standpoint to burn fossil fuels to convert them into electrons to power lights to grow plants when the sun is free.""We're showing you can turn disused greenhouses into productive grows that are profitable and give back to your local food community. You can achieve many of the same outcomes as vertical farming with a slightly lower tech structure like a greenhouse, while still growing the best produce year-round with the least water."Resources MentionedWebsite - www.lettusgrow.com LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/lettus-growFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/LettUsGrow/Instagram -

Laura Harris joins Tommy to talk about what dangers bikers face riding throughout the city.
Active transportation advocates constantly get accused of waging a "war on cars." But when you look around our communities, it sure looks more like we're in the middle of a war on walking and biking — and the wrong side is winning. In today's episode of The Brake, we sat down with Dr. Tepi McLaughlin, who co-authored of a provocative new paper that argues it's time to name the “enemies of physical activity” and dismantle policies they push, rather than just focusing on the additive benefits of building more sidewalks and bike lanes. And along the way, we talk about some of the hidden ways that corporations and policymakers have made non-automotive transportation so dangerous and rare, and what we can do to change it.

Shake it off! Taylor Swift kündigt ganz nonchalant in einem Podcast ihr neues Album an. Und während Swifties in aller Welt "The Life Of A Showgirl" entgegenfiebern, hauen wir, Eure Hosts Daniel Heinze und Guido Corleone, erstmal eine neue Folge von HELDENSTADT raus, dem Leipziger Wohnzimmerpodcast der LVZ. "The Life Of A Leipziger", sozusagen! Wir quatschen wieder über alles, was in Leipzig gerade abgeht – und was uns selbst beschäftigt. E-Bikes werden ständig geklaut (einige sind halt ein bisschen zu locker unterwegs). Und im Petersbogen steht jetzt ne fette IMAX-Leinwand. Kino-Experience auf next level! Ausserdem: geht es nun endlich, endlich los mit der Bebauung des ehemaligen Eutritzscher Freiladebahnhofs? Streamingtipp! Lohnt sich die neue MDR-Doku "Boom Boom Leipzig"? Wir haben uns eine Schneise durch die ARD-Mediathek geschlagen und verraten's Euch. Und während Guido lockeren Kontakt mit einer religiösen Drückerkolonne hatte, musste Daniel ins St. Georg und ist (Überraschung!) am Leben und voll des Lobes übers Städtische Klinikum. Wir fragen uns, ob die Leipziger Kehrmaschinen, die damals die Warming Stripes von der Sachsenbrücke weggekratzt haben, vielleicht auch in Dresden helfen könnten. Dort sorgt nämlich ein selbst gemalter Zebrastreifen gerade für Ärger. Ob wir – so wie in Großbritannien empfohlen – auch in Leipzig anfangen sollten, Fotos und Mails aus unseren Cloud-Speichern zu löschen, um Wasser zu sparen? Und währenddessen wird auf Reddit diskutiert, warum die Leipziger Busse und Bahnen nachts mal früher losfahren, als sie eigentlich sollten. In den Veranstaltungstipps legen wir Euch die Konzerte von Mamoré, Luca Vasta und Alehlokapi ans Herz. Zum Schluss gibt's noch einen Tipp für alle, die der anstehenden Spotify-Preiserhöhung entgehen wollen. Viel Spaß mit dem Spekulationsobjekt unter den Leipzig-Podcasts: **„HELDENSTADT. Der LVZ-Podcast aus Leipzig mit Daniel Heinze und Guido Corleone“**, Episode vom 25. August 2025. Folgt uns bei Instagram, Mastodon, Threads und Facebook! Wir sind @heldenstadt

Jared Shavelson was raised in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, just outside of Philadelphia. His drumming journey stated early in life and got his first drumset at age seven. While playing in all of the local orchestras, marching bands, jazz bands, and theaters in southern New Jersey, he was taking weekly private lessons. During this time he was also starting to play out with his own bands, getting him heavily involved with the Philadelphia punk/hardcore scene. Leaving that area in 1999, he went to New York to attend college at SUNY Purchase studying jazz performance with greats like Ritchie Morales and Kim Plainfield. Jared completed 2 years at the Music Conservatory and left after his second year to start touring internationally with the Boston hardcore band The Hope Conspiracy. Soon after, he also began playing with the pop punk band None More Black, along with the political punk band Paint It Black. After living in New York City, Brooklyn, and Philadelphia, he now resides in Los Angeles where he started playing with more eclectic acts like Digital Daggers, Pure Love, The Rentals, The Aquabats, Meg Myers, Seal, Dark Waves, Cyn, Ways Away, Boysetsfire, Joyce Manor, The Bronx, Mariachi El Bronx, Chuck Ragan, Chase Atlantic, Ceremony, and many more.

He shares his thoughts about what the night would look like if we inhabited a lone solar system floating between galaxies, how ancient cultures anchored the night sky to their local landscape, and why light at night is so seductive.LINKS FROM EPISODE 127:2025 Stargazing Guide (FREE download): https://nightskytourist.com/guide/ Order The Wild Dark book here: https://www.torreyhouse.org/the-wild-dark Craig Childs: http://www.houseofrain.com/index.cfm The Bortle Scale: https://skyandtelescope.org/astronomy-resources/light-pollution-and-astronomy-the-bortle-dark-sky-scale/ Night Sky Tourist events: https://nightskytourist.com/events/ VISIT OUR WEBSITEVisit the Night Sky Tourist website to book private stargazing experiences, read inspiring articles, and find resources to take your stargazing to the next level.

It's been a decade since PJ Branco's testicular cancer diagnosis in 2015. In early August 2025, he completed his third year as a participant in the PanMassChallenge with his personal goal to raise $10,000 for the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. The two-day race covers 186 miles, and PJ is one of 1,000 living proof cyclists and volunteers who have been previously or are currently being treated for cancer. All the money raised in this charity event goes directly to cancer care at this treatment center.PJ was the third member of his family to survive cancer. His mom learned she had breast cancer in 2005, and his father received his colon cancer diagnosis a few years later when PJ was in college. In 2015, PJ had his right testicle removed, and three months later, when a scan showed an inflamed lymph node in his back, he underwent chemotherapy. He compares his cycling stamina in 2025 to a time during 2015. After the removal of his right testicle and chemotherapy, PJ considered it an accomplishment to walk up and down his driveway. Now, 10 years later, he talks about life with his wife and four-year-old son, and his dedication to giving back to the cancer institute that treated him and his mother. As he explained in the podcast, "I now give back to those who helped save my life." He shares his story in this episode of Don't Give Up on Testicular Cancer from the Max Mallory Foundation.

Can you bike to Epstein's Island? Will you ever know everybody on "the list"? What is the sound of one hand clapping? So... now what? Join me as I ride gravel for 60 miles in the hot Texas sun, talking about what to do when you can't know, how to get better at swimming butterfly, and when "The Comparing Mind" isn't always the bad thing Zen Buddhism makes it out to be. I also get close up to a Speckled King Snake, get chased by a dog, and have to take several breaks at two gas stations and under a bridge. Enjoy!
"There are people out there that have found incredible success in ultra-running and things by being tough as nails…and it just doesn't work for me. But what I can do is wake up in the morning and be like, oh, like I'm gonna stop for a coffee in 10 miles and that coffee's gonna taste so good…Relying on speaking positively to myself and…to other people, I think offers a lot more potential” – Chris McCaffrey Chris McCaffrey didn't set out to cycle around the world to break a record or prove a point. He did it to chase something deeper. Joy, connection, and the quiet, personal legend we all carry inside us. But in the process, he faced a near-death illness in Vietnam, and was misdiagnosed with dengue. He pushed on through the Australian outback running on empty and eventually crossed the Colorado Rockies in a blizzard to make it back home. 18,000 miles, 17 months alone, and two brushes with death. But somehow, it all became less about finishing the journey and more about learning how to keep moving forward with gratitude and self-kindness. This is not just an adventure story, it's a story about how we talk to ourselves in the moments that matter most. It's about the power of mindset. And it's about how joy, not toughness, is the real fuel for going the distance.
