Shifting into a faster gear from our last episode, Tim Berglund and Rachel Pedreschi continue investigating how humans have hitched rides from each other over the last 250 years. From hailing hackney coaches on filthy mud streets to boarding trams to hitchhiking with your thumb out to hailing taxis to using ride-sharing apps like Uber and Lyft to a possible future of self-driving cars, this is a story of land travel, communication, and cartography. New episodes every Tuesday from March-June.
