Great podcast, Jay. I noticed you are injecting a little urban policy context into some of the out-of-the-norm segments. This one referencing redlining and a recent one taking a clip from Urbanized where it recognized a Bogota, Columbia as a city for people and the justice of access to places within it. I believe the voice was of Enrique Peñalosa who was the former mayor. These are amazingly rich issues that illustrate the injustices you wish to highlight and promote education and action toward improving. The amazing thing about bringing these issues down to the scale of the city is that it puts people in direct contact with the administrators, mayors, and councils who can make real progress. Cities and towns can be transformed easier than an entire nation with so much national noise it is mostly impossible to be heard or taken seriously. Voices combined at the local level, where most public hearings allow people to say their peace for ~ 3 minutes is a great time to speak your mind before an audience of influential people and decision makers. When cities and towns transform, their needs are loud to those at the State level and eventually at the national level. I applaud your efforts to expand the program.

There is a great cartoon called A Brief History of the USA in the film Bowling for Columbine. In the context of that film, it is a cartoon about why Americans love their guns. But, I think it also dovetails nicely into this topic of how we got here.
