Freeways are not free. We pay for them in all kinds of ways — with our tax dollars, our time, our environment and our health. While freeways have enabled huge amounts of economic growth, they've also caused displacement and division. Learn the forgotten history of our urban freeway network, and how decades after that network was finished, some communities are still working to heal the wounds that freeways left behind. As climate change threatens to wreak havoc on our cities, freeways are not just a part of the problem. They can also be part of the solution.

On Sunday, February 13, 2000, Jane Dorotik’s husband Bob went out for a run and never came back. He was found dead by the side of the road early the next morning, and Jane’s life changed forever.

Over the next two decades Jane would become a convict, a martyr, an advocate, and she would play a key role in exposing fatal flaws in the criminal justice system.

Sex. It is a driving force behind many of our relationships and paramount to our sense of self. It plays a huge role in our lives and society - influencing politics and laws, religious practices, healthcare, economics and more.So it is no wonder that sex is a big topic of both loud and hushed conversations. Here at "Everybody's Doing It," we make the listener a fly on the wall for ordinary banter about sex and sexuality to highlight important topics using the lens of real people's lives. We then follow those topics deeper into the depths of the human experience with guests who have dedicated their lives to expanding minds and advocating for sexual health. Our goal is to shrink taboos and make the unconventional less intimidating, all while making the listener feel like an expert in their own intimacy and welcome to the conversation.
