Litquake's Lit Cast

Recorded live at  KALW during Litquake Festival 2025 Sarah Goodyear and Doug Gordon, co-authors of the book Life After Cars and hosts of "The War on Cars" podcast, discuss the idea of building infrastructure that isn't centered around the automobile. In conversation with KALW's Sunni Khalid, they discuss the history of car-centric culture and outline the ways in which it contributes to inequality, climate crisis, and even the loneliness epidemic. They also offer glimpses at cities tackling the problem in novel and effective ways and offer practical tips for navigating the (car-free) road ahead.
