Thomas the Tank Engine (w/ Justin Roczniak, aka donoteat01)

We're joined by Justin Roczniak, better known as urban planning and Cities: Skylines aficionado donoteat01, to discuss the labor politics and mass transit infrastructure of Thomas the Tank Engine. We dig into Sir Topham Hatt's troubling history of strike-breaking, Sodor's surprisingly durable residential housing, and the nature of locomotive sentience and being. ALSO: British Rail privatization, locomotives of the Great Leap Forward, *tons* of train info and, as a special bonus for our Philly native listeners, some complaints about SEPTA. donoteat01 on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFdazs-6CNzSVv1J0a-qy4A Justin's Twitter: https://twitter.com/donoteat1 Well There's Your Problem: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPxHg4192hLDpTI2w7F9rPg Philadelphia Transit Rider's Union: https://twitter.com/phillytru Intro by Matt Lilienfeld (www.youtube.com/intellectualdarkwave) Outro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VALJZBKFEFQ
