Episode notes

Sally Kohn: In the mobility space alone, like they're not even succeeding by their own terms. She says we can't just rely on the technologies to solve the problems of our transportation system. "We don't have problems in our transportation system simply because we don't have adequate technologies," she adds.

Paris Marx is the host of the popular tech-critical podcast Tech Won't Save Us, and the author of a new book called Road to Nowhere: What Silicon Valley Gets Wrong about the Future of Transportation. On this week's episode, Paris joins Kirsten and Ed for a wide-ranging look at his left-of-center critiques of the mobility technology sector and his arguments for a less "solutionist" approach to our mobility challenges.
