This episode is part of a special series called "Changing American Car Culture" funded with the generous support of The Helen and William Mazer Foundation. As historian Peter Norton documents in his book, Fighting Traffic, the death and destruction caused by the introduction of automobiles into U.S. cities in the early part of the 20th century caused a lot of people to challenge the notion that such machines would ever become popular. In response, autmobile companies, car dealers, driving enthuisasts, and others went on the offense, creating the culture that gave rise to the mass adoption of cars and the phenomenon of forced car dependence. In this special episode, producer Ilana Strauss brings us a story that begins with the pushback against automobiles, the fight for speed governors, and the unlikely partnership between a Studebaker dealer and a young academic who manufactured the rules and norms that came to shape American streets at the expense of anyone who isn't in a car.

Episode SummaryEver wandered through a European parking lot and thought, “Why don't we get cars like that in America?”In this episode of The Straight Shift, The Car Chick, dives into the sleek, smart, and downright sexy European cars that U.S. drivers can't buy — and all the bureaucratic, political, and marketing nonsense that keeps them off our roads.She covers everything from trade wars and tariffs to global platform sharing, brand confusion, and she reveals the legendary naming fail in automotive history.Key TakeawaysEuropean automakers build smaller, more stylish, and more driver-focused cars — and American drivers are missing out on some genuinely great vehicles because of it.The combination of differing safety standards, emissions regulations, and high startup costs makes it difficult for foreign brands to justify entering the U.S. market.The current trade and political environment is unpredictable, which makes expanding into new markets — especially the U.S. — too risky for many automakers.Global platform sharing allows manufacturers to design multiple models on the same architecture, meaning many cars are more closely related than consumers realize.Vehicle naming strategies often change by market due to language, marketing, and cultural factors — though occasionally they lead to some embarrassing translation fails.Resourceswww.TheCarChick.comwww.DrivingInTheUK.comhttps://www.youtube.com/@CarChickTVwww.CupraOfficial.comwww.Vauxhall.co.ukwww.Skoda-auto.comwww.dsautomobiles.comYou can view a full list of resources and episode transcripts here.

Two years ago this week I was in Manhattan covering the Vision Zero Cities conference hosted by the great nonprofit Transportation Alternatives. At a panel discussion titled, Supersized SUVs, Mega Trucks, and Regulatory Failure, one of the speakers made me sit up and take notice: He railed against feckless leadership that wouldn't improve bus service, critiqued the "war on cars," called for higher taxes on large vehicles that are more prone to kill people, and spoke about traffic victims and transportation policy with the candor, clarity and conviction you'd expect from an activist.But this wasn't an activist. It was an elected official. He was a member of the state assembly named Zohran Mamdani. Yes, the same Mamdani who might very well be New York City's next mayor in a few weeks.This audio from that 2023 conference is a detailed view inside Mamdani's mind and it reveals how he approaches what are still some the most important road safety and transportation topics of the day.Links:BikePortland recap of this panel discussionMamdani campaign websitePlease support this work!

Send us a textCars have long been sold as the ultimate symbol of freedom. But what if they've trapped us instead? In this episode of FUTUREPROOF., we sit down with Arthur Kay, urban designer and coauthor of Roadkill: Unveiling the True Cost of Our Toxic Relationship with Cars.Kay argues that America's car dependency is more than a climate issue—it's a system of financial, political, and social control that burdens working and middle-class families, strains local economies, and limits real choice. Together, we explore:Why cars drive hidden costs in housing, taxes, and debtHow car-centric cities hollow out communities and opportunitiesThe global lessons America can learn from more walkable, resilient urban modelsA realistic blueprint for building cities that prioritize people, not vehiclesThis conversation goes far beyond traffic jams and tailpipe emissions—it's about the future of freedom, equity, and the way we design our lives.

This week I step inside Waterworks Visual Arts Center in Salisbury, NC to experience Heidi Mraz's immersive automotive art exhibit. Heidi transforms fragments—vintage brochures, race maps, workshop notes, paint chips—into large-scale portraits that feel alive with motion and memory. We talk process (from research to layering and collage), the stories hidden in each build sheet and body panel, and why car culture belongs on museum walls as much as it does on concours lawns. If you love the smell of old manuals, the poetry of patina, or the way a great road trip rearranges your brain, you'll be right at home in this episode.

We love our cars, but do we understand how much they are costing us? The lifetime cost of driving in the U.S. is estimated at almost $800,000—including maintenance, insurance, fuel, parking, and depreciation. And then there's the cost in lives. Cars have killed 60 to 80 million people since their invention—that's more than the deaths of WWI and WWII combined. Is there a better way?

Ford CEO Jim Farley wants a "Raptor" style off-road supercar with 1000 horsepower, meanwhile the Ram TRX is back with all of its Supercharged V8 glory.

The automotive industry is undergoing a profound transformation that's reshaping how we think about careers in vehicle repair and maintenance. Gone are the days when becoming a mechanic simply meant learning from your dad in the garage. Today's automotive technicians need sophisticated computer skills alongside traditional mechanical aptitude.Hugh Mann from Houston Community College joins us to discuss the evolving landscape of automotive education and the lucrative career paths available to those with proper training. "You almost feel like you gotta have an IT degree to work on them sometimes," Hugh notes when discussing modern vehicles with their complex sensors and driver-assist features. Dealerships are competing fiercely for qualified technicians, driving up wages and improving working conditions - including the increasingly common air-conditioned repair shops replacing the sweltering environments of years past.One particularly fascinating insight reveals how HCC structures their educational programs to accommodate different career aspirations. Students can complete certificates in as little as two semesters or pursue associate degrees that open doors to management positions later in their careers. The diesel and heavy equipment specialties often command higher salaries than traditional automotive paths, with different pay structures that appeal to those seeking more predictable income.Beyond the educational discussion, we explore creative ways car enthusiasts are repurposing automotive components. Jeff shares fascinating examples of BBQ grills crafted from engine blocks, rims, and even entire vintage cars - each telling a story about automotive passion extending beyond the road. Marrs rounds out our journey with unique driving destinations around San Antonio, from the spectacular emergence of 15 million bats at Bracken Cave to the quirky Toilet Seat Art Museum created by a former plumber. Whether you're considering a career change, looking to understand the future of automotive repair, or simply love unique car culture stories, this episode offers valuable insights into how vehicles continue to shape our lives in unexpected waysBe sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!The Lupe' Tortilla RestaurantsLupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas Gulf Coast Auto ShieldPaint protection, tint, and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

An automotive time capsule awaits discovery in the rolling hills of Montana where approximately 600 vehicles lie scattered across 100 acres of countryside. This extraordinary barn find collection, headed to auction through Vanderbrink Auctions, features everything from 1920s classics and vintage fire trucks to Plymouths, Rivieras, and even a rare 1961 bubble top with intact glass. The remote location adds to the mystique – so far from civilization there's no cell service, creating a treasure hunter's paradise where viewing requires dedication and extraction demands ingenuity.Our hosts dive deep into what makes this auction special, exploring the logistics of purchasing vehicles from such a remote location and imagining creative uses for these automotive relics. The conversation turns playful as they contemplate converting a 1923 American LaFrance fire truck into a mobile barbecue pit, complete with sauce-dispensing hoses – a quintessential example of American automotive enthusiasm and creativity.The episode transitions to Jeff's Car Culture segment featuring extraordinary high-mileage vehicles that have made their way into the Guinness World Records. From a 1964 Porsche 356C with one million miles to the ultimate distance champion – a 1966 Volvo P1800 owned by Irv Gordon that achieved an astonishing 3.25 million miles before his passing. These remarkable stories of automotive longevity reveal not just mechanical resilience, but deep bonds between owners and their beloved vehicles.Marrs rounds out the show with a surprising array of local Houston-area driving destinations, including the Art Deco 1940 Air Terminal Museum, an underwater shark tunnel train ride, and even a zipline adventure park hiding in plain sight. These hidden gems remind listeners that automotive adventures don't always require long-distance travel, sometimes the most unexpected experiences are right in our backyard, waiting to be discovered with the same enthusiasm as a field of forgotten classics in Montana.Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!The Lupe' Tortilla RestaurantsLupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas Gulf Coast Auto ShieldPaint protection, tint, and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Buckle up for a journey into the heart of authentic car culture with our exploration of Rats on the Platte, a rebellious celebration of automotive passion that thrives far from the polished showcases of mainstream car events. Speaking with organizers Jake Donahoe and Paula Sanada, we discover what makes this annual gathering in Mitchell, Nebraska a must-visit for true gearheads and automotive misfits.This isn't your typical car show – it's a raw, community-driven event where creativity and character trump cleanliness and conformity. As Paula colorfully explains, "This isn't some shiny Corvette lawn chair circle where judged means who brought the cleanest wax rag." Instead, Rats on the Platte celebrates builders, dreamers, wrenchers, and fabricators who create machines worth noticing without seeking validation.The two-day event features dirt track racing in a rodeo arena, a concrete burnout pad with bleachers, swap meets, and the intriguing "Mistresses of Mayhem" – pinup models who add vintage flair to the proceedings. What makes this gathering special is the "drive what you build" philosophy, with many participants traveling cross-country in their custom creations rather than trailering them. With affordable registration ($35 pre-show) and on-site camping available, the event creates an immersive experience for automotive enthusiasts of all stripes.Shifting gears, we take you behind the wheel of the 2024 Land Rover Defender, a boxy, distinctive SUV that blends off-road capability with modern luxury. Starting at $56,400 and climbing well into six figures for premium trims, the Defender delivers impressive performance with its available inline-six engine producing 395 horsepower. It feels substantial and solid – "the doors shut like an old Norge refrigerator" – combining British design sensibilities with serious off-road credentials.Whether you're drawn to the rebellious spirit of grassroots car culture or the refined capability of modern adventure vehicles, this episode captures the diversity and passion that drives automotive enthusiasm.

Step into the fascinating world of automotive treasures as we journey through the Savoy Automobile Museum in Cartersville, Georgia. Museum representative Mary Agrusa takes us on a captivating tour through their remarkable barn finds collection, where each vehicle tells an extraordinary story of discovery and preservation. From a GT350 Mustang with deliberately preserved deteriorating paint to the one-of-a-kind 1949 Packard Monte Carlo convertible built by Henney, these automotive time capsules reveal the passionate dedication of collectors and restorers.The museum's fiberglass car collection offers another dimension of automotive history, showcasing rare and one-off vehicles that represent the DIY spirit of enthusiasts who once ordered kit cars from the back pages of automotive magazines. The Novetta stands as a testament to dedication, taking its owner 20 years to complete by piecing together parts from various sources, including Mini Cooper hinges and other creative solutions.We dive into automotive styling history with Jeff's Car Culture segment on vinyl roofs – that distinctive styling trend from the 1960s through the early 1990s that gave fixed-roof cars a convertible-like appearance. While once the height of automotive fashion adorning everything from muscle cars to Corvettes, vinyl tops are now often considered problematic during restorations, trapping moisture and accelerating rust underneath their fashionable exterior.Bringing us to the present day, our comprehensive review of the 2025 GMC Yukon Denali Ultimate reveals why this luxury SUV commands attention. With its 420-horsepower 6.2-liter V8, distinctive baseball stitching interior, and comprehensive technology package including second-row entertainment screens, this $107,285 top-tier model represents the sweet spot between the Chevrolet Suburban and Cadillac Escalade.Discover more automotive insights and adventures by subscribing to our podcast or joining us for our live show every Saturday morning from 8-11am central.

Special In Wheel Time Replay - What happens when childhood dreams of muscle cars finally come true? Danon Hollinger joins us at the Lone Star Street Rod Association's 50th anniversary celebration to share her journey from Hot Rod magazine fan to proud owner of a gleaming white 1978 Pontiac Trans Am.Unlike most girls growing up, Danon decorated her headboard with car magazine centerfolds instead of pop stars. Her fascinating story takes us from her early fascination with a high school crush's '69 Camaro to discovering something unexpected—a Trans Am with a poignant backstory. The previous owner had lovingly restored it for his son who, after a tragic accident, could never drive it. Now this beautiful machine has found new life with an owner who truly appreciates its power and presence.The conversation takes a few detours through Danon's unique name (from an old Western film), her career as a teacher now enjoying retirement, and the modifications they've made to transform their Trans Am from drag racer to comfortable cruiser. Their upgrade to a Tremec five-speed transmission highlights the perfect balance they've struck between preserving vintage character and enhancing drivability.We also explore the joy of car club culture as Danon shares adventures with her Houston-based Great Classics club—from "margarita meetings" to cross-country trips to shows in Reno and along the Mississippi coast. Her enthusiasm for decorating the Trans Am for Christmas parades and local charity events showcases how classic cars become more than possessions—they're vehicles for building community and creating lasting memories.Later, Jeff presents his Car Culture segment featuring the best US cities for vintage car shows, from Detroit's Woodward Dream Cruise to the elegance of Pebble Beach. Tune in for a heartwarming reminder that automotive passion knows no boundaries—and sometimes the perfect car finds you when you least expect it.Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!

The conversation around transportation in Denver can often feel like two steps forward, one step back. RTD built out a massive network of light rail lines thirty years ago, but now thousands of Denverites have abandoned the trains. Our elected officials talk a lot about ending traffic fatalities, but hesitate on making transformative changes to our streets. For almost ten years, Nate Minor has reported on Denver's unique transportation quandaries and challenges, driving the conversation on everything from RTD to bike lanes. But now he's leaving town for a job in Minnesota. So he's back on with host Bree Davies one last time to look back and share a few predictions. Nate mentioned Mayor Johnston's comments on transportation on our show back in February. For even more news from around the city, subscribe to our morning newsletter Hey Denver at denver.citycast.fm.
