Revolting 50

Talk

A Race to the Bottom. This episode is about racing bicycles, what’s good about it, what’s bad about it, when we’ve enjoyed it, when we’ve hated it. Oh, and today’s would-you-rather is maybe worth the price of admission all on its own.

Music pick of the week.

Robot fell in love with cycling watching the older neighborhood kids ride wheelies down the street. It was the early '70s, and Evel Knievel was jumping motorcycles over buses. Everything seemed possible. From that moment, the die was cast (iacta alia est).

He studied philosophy in college, of course he did. That's what idealists do, romantics, kids who think there must be a better way. At the same time, bikes were carrying him everywhere, delivering all of life's gifts and surprises. Occasionally he crashed and didn't mind.

    So, I started this podcast playing and settled in to listen. After listening for a few minutes, I woke up several hours later. Like at 2AM. I’m good with that because I’m always behind on podcasts anyway!

      We are hypnotic. We are soporific. We are dreamy.
