Our streets are designed for machines, not humans. But what if we could hack the narrative? In this episode, I sit down with Tom, a former ad executive for cars turned road safety advocate and co-founder of the Urban Truth Collective.
We dive deep into how he shifted from selling cars to fighting for safe streets after realizing the absurdity of our car-centric culture-as a dad. Tom shares his journey of using creative tools-billboards, stickers, and viral campaigns-to expose the dystopian reality of traffic violence and reclaim public space for kids, teens, and pedestrians.
We discuss:
Why „radical“ ideas like safe bike lanes are actually just common sense.
The power of visual storytelling to change minds faster than data ever could.
How to communicate with busy parents and skeptics without alienating them.
The struggle (and necessity) of paid vs. unpaid activism.
Why teenagers need public spaces that aren’t owned by Starbucks.
Join us as we explore how creativity can be a weapon for justice and why the future of mobility must be human-centered.
