This is a sad spectacle, but one that is inevitable in a petty-bourgeois country in the epoch of bourgeois-democratic transformations.
Tired! The Car Podcast...
@tiredpod.bsky.social
...For People Who Understand That Cars Are Bad. Autojourno hosts Peter Hughes (ex-Mountain Goats) and Rory Carroll (Alloy Mag, ex-Jalopnik) address the tension between automotive enthusiasm and a human-oriented future. Hop in: https://linktr.ee/tiredpod
Come for the discussion of the Ferrari ladder system; stay for Rory's correct amount of vitriol for both the iPhone (evil) and for Silicon Valley guys and their "uncanny talent for battering the cool out of everything they touch." (true)
Someone spent $40M this weekend to claim the very first Ferrari Luce: alloymag.com/fast-luce/
Tired is the kind of podcast where we record for 90 minutes and this is one of our topics, before we get into Rory seeing 20ft tall tractor engines, and Peter gets into geopolitics until I'm looking at the flag of the MPLA on Wikipedia.
QUICK addition

FORMAL ANNOUNCEMENT FINALLY: Peter just said on livestream that he IS getting records made, and Half-Staff Blues will be available in a physical release hopefully late this summer. I've been waiting a year and a half to hear him say that and I know a few other people will be very excited.
Are you working on an end-of-year retrospective on new music you liked in 2025? You don't have a physical copy of Half-Staff Blues to remind you, but I will! (And I'll keep asking Peter about a small run of something in 2026...) peterpeterhughes.bandcamp.com/album/half-s...
nice of my co-hosts to trust me with naming our podcast eps, which have referenced everything from the Legend of Zelda to a Richard Fariña novel to Barbara Kruger's "Untitled (You construct intricate rituals which allow you to touch the skin of other men)" despite it, in theory, being a car podcast
NEW TIRED! FIRST, in the public feed, we chat about the Indy 500, say a few words about Kyle Busch, get Vitruvian on a long look at the Ferrari Luce, and once again offer our services to the Chinese government. www.patreon.com/posts/episod...
