@mgm.ink’s Henry George Program is one of my favorite podcasts. This episode takes me back to how excited I was last year about the prospects for SB 79 allowing transit agencies in California to thrive when reading the bill as introduced, before those provisions got stripped out.

New ep! We talk to @kerstanley.bsky.social about what happened behind the scenes on SB79, and how some ugly sacrifices were made, on local control and (especially) transit value capture What happened? Why didn't transit agencies fight for themselves? LISTEN >>>>> seethecat.org/ep/2026-05-2...

“[NITA requires] service-led planning, which is the idea that it doesn't matter how you get from A to B. It could be a bus, it could be a train, it could be a teleporter. But the idea being that it matters that you get from A to B, not the specific mode used to get from point A to point B.”

Sy Adler wrote one of my favorite transit planning papers in 1980. Great to see him interviewed on Bay Area transit history. (The exclamation point regarding low oil prices in the late 1940s.) escholarship.org/uc/item/3kv5...

everyone considering buying Abundance would do themselves and the world a favor by listening to this instead

An interesting point @mgm.ink made in the podcast here was that the Abundance book implied Republicans are bad by saying liberals were acting like conservatives, but didn't actually articulate what's bad about conservatives. Which seems like a miss in 2025. seethecat.org/ep/2025-06-0...

Went podcasting about abundance with @mgm.ink and @emoscientist.bsky.social! Tons of fun and hopefully folks learn something. Fortuitously, I've seen a bunch of great abundance takes the last few days! Will flag ones that resonate with the episode when I have time.
