Hey, looky that. Night Ride is streaming on the *&%#& Interwebs. Wow. Welcome to the 21st Century. Streaming, download in several formats, the works. I want to drive to Fry's right now & buy a 500GB hard drive and then take it up to San Francisco and hand it to the good folks at archive.org with a note saying "Keep up the good work!"

Night Ride - v104 - Resistance Redux Years ago, Night Ride looked at the subject of resistance, mostly centered around our experiences and interviews around the start of the Iraq War and the resistance to it. Since then, we've talked about how our perspective has changed and often thought about revisiting the subject. Lately, we were inspired by a growing resistance movement right here in our little town. Hosted by Wes, Riley, and Corey. |

Night Ride - V101 - Urban Exploration Urban adventure, will change the way you see your urban environment. An old brick building becomes a cliff face to scale.

Night Ride - V100 - Police Spying Since 9/11, we've created a culture in which security is more important than liberty. The NSA is tapping your phone calls and email. The Pentagon is infiltrating your peace march. Actions at the federal level have a trickle down effect that has emboldened local law enforcement. When the president says 'Safety at any cost,' local cops take that to heart. We look at the cops hiding in your telephone, in your computer, and in your community meetings. Hosted by Wes. |

Night Ride - V99 - The Airborne Toxic Event "In White Noise in particular, I tried to find a kind of radiance in dailiness. Sometimes this radiance can be almost frightening. Other times it can be almost holy or sacred.... Our sense of fear--we avoid it because we feel it so deeply, so there is an intense conflict at work.... I think it is something we all feel, something we almost never talk about, something that is almost there. I tried to relate it in White Noise to this other sense of transcendence that lies just beyond our touch. This extraordinary wonder of things is somehow related to the extraordinary dread, to the death fear we try to keep beneath the surface of our perceptions." --Don Delillo. Hosted by Wes. |

Night Ride - V55 - Point of View "I'm no friend of Osama, but you have to put yourself in their shoes." Clearly, each of us thinks we're right, but considering that each of us are coming from our own unique point of view, perhaps we have to allow that maybe others have an equal claim to the moral high ground. An examination of the relativity of one's point of view. Hosted by Wes. |

Night Ride - v35 - Security "Good afternoon. The administration has concluded based on information developed that there may be additional terrorist attacks within the United States over the next week. The administration views this information as credible, but unfortunately it does not contain specific information about the type of attack or specific targets. Consequently, a terrorist threat advisory update has been issues to 18 thousand law enforcement agencies across the country. We have notified law enforcement to continue on highest alert and to notify immediately the FBI of any unusual or suspicious activity." Hosted by Wes. |
