This week we're joined by Oxford Ohio City Councilor and Miami of Ohio geography professor, David Prytherch. We chat about his new book Reclaiming the Road: Mobility Justice beyond Complete Streets. We chat about how pandemic open street experiments were rediscovering original uses, the cognitive benefits of experiencing car free streets, the opening of a democratic space for a discussion of what streets could and should be. +++ Get the show ad free on Patreon!
