Hi. Unfortunately, in today's episode, Katy and Cody have to discuss another tragic school shooting. During these times, we want to remember the victims of this tragedy.

2023-03-24 17:52:58 +0000 UTC View PostHi. On today's episode, we look at how the U.S. became so car-centric, why more walkable cities are probably the way to go, and what we can do to loosen the car industry's mechanical grip on our urban planning. Plus, the cars in Pixar's "Cars" have to eat and go to the bathroom. How does that work?

Hi. We're taking a few weeks off and this episode won't go live on YouTube until March 1, but we wanted you to have it extra, extra early.
