Episode 1: An Interview with Chris Paine

Welcome to the Post-Car Culture. This podcast will be an investigation into the future of American culture after the automobile. As oil disappears and populations grow, suburban sprawl culture and casual car use will no longer be sustainable. In clear, apolitical terms, Post-Car Culture will look at how the future is taking shape now by talking to the foremost thinkers on these issues. A new episode will come out every two weeks.

This, our first episode, is an interview with Chris Paine, director of the new movie,"Who Killed the Electric Car?" Chris and I talked about the many alternative fuels being bandied about and how effective they are (or aren't). Next episode, we'll talk with writer James Howard Kunstler about his new book, The Long Emergency.
