In this episode he talks about his approach to navigating tariffs (“There no, no word in the English language more scary to a finance professional than the word uncertainty” says Paulson as he discusses required “efficiency” and “flexibility” in their supply chains). He also reveals his approach to the finance transformation required to shift Rad Power from a direct-to-consumer to an e-commerce and retail focused model, that is “starting with a blank Excel sheet to do the modeling for Rad Power Bikes”.

Chances are, if a character rides a bicycle in a movie or TV show that character is a huge loser. From The 40-Year-Old Virgin to Arrested Development, bicycles are frequently used to represent immaturity, otherness and misfortune. Thankfully, things are changing — at least a little. Witness the Citibike-riding women of Broad City or Dr. Sharon Fieldstone, the sports psychologist who counsels the cast of Ted Lasso after commuting to work on her Brompton folding bike. Journalist Nitish Pahwa of Slate joins us to discuss the ways in which Hollywood and other parts of our entertainment-industrial complex use bicycles and cars to signify power and status.

Here's an overview of the new electric bike and its accessories available at launch.
You've probably encountered an e-bike in some form or another. Maybe you've ridden one. Perhaps one has buzzed passed you on the street, in a bike lane, or on the sidewalk. We've seen your requests and we're glad to finally dedicate an entire conversation to this topic. What's fueling the e-bike revolution? Is it just a short-lived fad? E-bikes are selling more quickly than cars, according to the Light Electric Vehicle Association, and our guest this week points out that e-bikes aren't going anywhere. Mike Radenbaugh is the founder and chairman of Rad Power Bikes, the largest e-bike company in the U.S. He built his first e-bike when he was just 15 years old. Radenbaugh joins WITHpod to discuss the distinctions between e-bike classes, how they are reshaping urban transportation, the energy savings case for using them, the need for improved infrastructure, the importance of more safety education and more.

We headed over to our sponsor Rad Power Bikes' new Brooklyn showroom last week to meet with founder and CEO Mike Radenbaugh and test drive his newly launched three-wheeler, the Rad Trike. The trike is very cool, beautifully designed, and tons of fun to ride. Manufacturing an e-trike is a big gamble for the young company. But Radenbaugh believes the Trike is his most accessible and transformational product yet, with huge potential to get lots more Americans out of their gas-guzzling SUVs and into lighter, cleaner, smarter, and more affordable electric vehicles. Can The War on Cars be won on tricycles? LINKS: “The RadTrike is the latest weapon in Rad Power Bikes' ongoing war on cars.” (By Andrew J.

This week Oliver interviews Mike Radenbaugh from RAD Power Bikes. RAD is the largest maker of the bikes in the US and this is a conversation we have wanted to have for a really long time. They discuss the new bike that they have just unveiled (skip ahead to around minute 13 if you want to know more about that!) They've been so excited to let you know about what is happening! Besides that, they also talk all about how he got to starting the company, the vehicles that he's built and why he still sees micro as such an exciting and interesting space. They also get into what he's up to next now that RAD has brought on Phil Molyneux as CEO last month. This was also published as a YouTube interview complete with video here: https://youtu.be/u1_H3kSdSl0 Also, for a further take on everything RAD, head to our YouTube Channel for an shorter interview at Micromobility America with Mike earlier this year (https://youtu.be/EJnH8ie-x9k) Specifically they dig into: - Rad Power Bikes, how it started and where they are at now. - D2C, and why they chose that model and how they think about servicing - RAD has the largest marketing budget of the industry. What's been effective in this space? What are the biggest barriers in a D2C marketplace? - Mike has recently stepped down as CEO, what is he now focusing on? - The double standard about ebikes vs other vehicles. - The RadTrike - RAD has always been known for two wheels so why the move to three, and why it's been their most requested bike ever. And with that, here's Mike! Be sure to check out our Rider Choice Awards - the Oscars of the micromobility world. Voting is open now ahead of Micromobility World on the 19th of January.

In 2019, Melissa and Chris Bruntlett and their two children moved from Vancouver to the small city of Delft in the Netherlands. The experience of transitioning to and living in a place that puts people first over automobiles forms the basis for Curbing Traffic: The Human Case for Fewer Cars in Our Lives. The book, the Bruntlett's second on the lessons offered by Dutch cities, explains the many benefits of car-free and car-lite spaces, from lower anxiety and stress, better social trust, improved health and increased independence for people of all ages and abilities. Plus, as you'll hear, cities with fewer cars are quiet! ***This episode is sponsored by Rad Power Bikes.*** SHOW NOTES: Buy Curbing Traffic and Building the Cycling City by Melissa and Chris Bruntlett, along with titles by other guests of the podcast, at the official War on Cars page at Bookshop.org.

Young people want to live. It seems kind of basic, right? Anyone over the age of 35 or so probably grew up thinking that the desire to live was something to take for granted, at least on a societal scale. But many members of Gen Z worry that the places they live today will soon be uninhabitable. That they won't be able to realize their dreams or raise their children the way previous generations did. That their very survival is at stake. And they don't see meaningful action from the adults in charge. In this episode, we hear from some teens in Brooklyn who are demanding radical improvements in bike infrastructure to make emission-free transportation safe and accessible to all. We also talk with Dr. Elizabeth Marks, a clinical psychologist who has co-authored a new study about climate anxiety in ten thousand young people all over the world. Sixty percent said that they are either “very worried” or “extremely worried” about climate change. There's a crisis in intergenerational trust. How can we begin to repair the damage? ***This episode is sponsored by Rad Power Bikes and Cleverhood.*** SHOW NOTES: Read the preprint of Dr. Elizabeth Marks's study of climate anxiety among young people.

Is it time to take more subversive action in the fight for safe streets? With all the evidence on our side, why does it sometimes feel like cities keep having the same arguments over parking spaces?

What does bikelash have in common with moral panics? Has Paris really descended into anarchy because of all the cyclists? Are e-bikes and scooters the biggest threats to pedestrians on the mean streets — and sidewalks — of New York? What happens when reporters misunderstand statistics and rely on anecdotes to paint a picture of an urban transportation landscape that's spinning out of control? To answer these questions and more, we're joined by journalist Michael Hobbes, the co-host of the podcasts Maintenance Phase and You're Wrong About. Michael explains what a moral panic is and helps us debunk some commonly held misconceptions about what happens when cities make streets for people, not cars.
