Ivy visits Hong Kong with her dad and shares her observations about transit abroad and at home.

Kyle and Eric chat with Colin Warn—who makes music as DJ Veaux—but, more importantly, is the man who told all of us to "Ride the D." Along the way, we also learn about his circuitous journey from Seattle car-brain to LABikeBoy.

MaryAnne LoVerme is a teacher and native New Yorker who moved to Los Angeles where she lived, car-free, for twelve years. In Los Angeles, she hit the ground running; immersing herself in improv, transit activism, and opening the beloved and much-missed Los Angeles County Store. In 2025, she packed it all up and relocated to a suburb of Paris (France). We caught up before she left us in the proverbial dust.

Back in July, Eric appeared as a guest on episode number two of Julia Beach’s podcast/online radio show, “Friend of the Month.”

Friend of the Month is broadcast on Frank Radio, an online broadcaster and eventspace located in Los Angeles’s Fairfax District. “Friend Of The Month” is a radio show about knowing your neighbors. In each episode, they feature an Angeleno with a good story, and ask them what it means to feel like a local.

The program begins with the audio from a piece by Greg Ruben about indigenous roads of Los Angeles. Ruben makes meditative videos about Los Angeles’s culture and history that can be seen on Instagram. He recently founded “Walking School of Los Angeles: a series of guided walks through LA’s past, present and future.” After Ruben’s piece, Julia and Eric discuss — what else? — mass transit – albeit with a focus on the Silver Lake neighborhood, where Julia and Eric both live.

Nobody Drives in LA's co-hosts and hall-of-famers—Eric Brightwell, Ivy Kwok, Kyle Rebar, and Rogelio Pardo—upzoned LA Comic-Con with our panel LA Transit in Pop Culture. Their discussion touches upon the song "Walking in LA" and the (tired) trope that no one (and only nobodies) walk; Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles; L.A. Noire; reframing the discussion in Hollywood and pop culture around public transit; and how transit in film reflects our collective hopes and fears about the future.

Special thanks to our videographer and favorite Atomic Polar Bear ⁠Alex Denney⁠.

Kyle's been getting around: K-Town, Atwater, Anaheim. Not just via the beloved E-Line, mind you. We're talking bike, bus, Metrolink, and motorscooter. Links to many of our topics below!
