Paul Comfort’s Transit Unplugged is a podcast for transit industry professionals. He just did a two-part interview of me, where we talked about how our thinking about transit goals, and our measures of success, need to adapt to the post-pandemic world. It’s in two podcasts
Part 1, from 7:10 to 22:10. (Ends at a moment of suspense!)
Part 2, from 8:03 to 18:10.
Hope you enjoy!
In her spare time, Toronto Chief Planner Jennifer Keesmaat hosts a podcast series called Invisible City. Her hour-long sessions go deeply into a
n interesting urbanist topic, and recently she did an interview of me. We were both having great fun, and it turned into the best long-form interview that I’ve done. (This 2012 Colin Marshall interview — which is more personal and where my ideas were much less clearly formed, is the only one that comes close.)
Jennifer skillfully provoked a discussion that requires no geekery to follow. You can share it with your friends who have only the vaguest notion of what transit is, and many, I think, will still enjoy it. There are a few
Toronto references, but nothing that will baffle a reader from elsewhere.
It’s here. Hope you enjoy.
