I can produce our podcast (we’re going to have a podcast, right?) and help maintain our fleet of bicycles. Possibly trains and/or tanks too, as needed.

When I made the account I thought that my podcast co-hosts might post on here too, but it’s ended up being mostly just me. So in this case “them” is plural.

Thanks!

In this episode, we analyze the iconic 1977 film “Smokey and the Bandit” with the hosts of Cars and Comrades. We share our personal connections to the movie, discussing how it shaped our views on truck driving and outlaw culture, particularly through Brandon’s experience. The conversation revolves around the Bandit’s wild quest to transport Coors beer and critiques the comedic representation of law enforcement, exemplified by Sheriff Buford T. Justice. We delve into the film’s themes of working-class solidarity and anti-authoritarianism, highlighting the camaraderie among truckers and the Bandit’s folk hero status. Our analysis also touches on the humor, improvised dialogue, and gender roles, particularly through Sally Field’s character. As we reflect on the film’s lasting legacy, we share personal ratings and recommendations, reiterating its significance for car enthusiasts and fans of classic comedy, all while reinforcing our mission to explore car culture from a leftist perspective.

I’ve also seen a version of this that uses an electric locomotive that moves a big weight up and down a slope.

Personally I think we should put big weights on pulleys in every high rise, like a grandfather clock.

If you want to see some actual on-the-ground journalism, the local PSL chapter went there in person and interviewed residents:

I don’t think I’ve seen any literal nazis here but I’m sure they exist. It’s not quite Idaho but there are plenty of weirdo libertarians and christians. Although I guess there was that one time a nazi told an FBI informant about wanting to blow up a synagogue and went straight to prison for 20 years.

WTF is this guy on about, Colorado’s governor is a zionist, half the state’s economy is reliant on the military-industrial complex, and the cops are eager to beat and jail protestors who speak out against it.

Lol Golda Meir also lived in Denver

Can you come to my job and explain how tolerances work to these engineers?

I don’t think I’d date anyone who traded an MG for a white Chrysler LeBaron

Yeah I know someone who recently started posting stuff like this and it’s really sad. And baffling, since he’s a white American.
