The War on Cars

Tell us YOUR origin story!

Hello everybody,

By now you've probably heard our November bonus, Origin Stories, in which Aaron, Sarah and I talked about our jouney from ordinary citizens to activists, writers and hosts of a podcast all about fighting car culture. Among other things, Aaron mentioned his father's warning during a driving lesson that a car is a weapon, Sarah talked about being car-dependent in rural Maine, and Doug explained his experience of being single and broke in Atlanta.

Now, for an upcoming bonus episode, we want to hear from you! What sparked your interested in living a car-free or car-lite lifestyle? What motivated you to dive deeper into the world of safe streets activism? Was there one specific moment that started it all for you or was it a gradual realization that a better world is possible? Let us know!

Please leave us a voicemail via this link. Keep your message to 2 minutes or less and be sure to include your name (first only is totally okay) and where you live. You can also ask us questions if you have any.

Due to the volume of submissions, we can't promise we'll include every message on the episode but we will do our best to include as many as possible. Either way, we love hearing from listeners as it always inspires us to keep going.

We're looking forward to hearing from you!

Thanks for all the support,

Doug
