Deep Streets Davis Radio

Deep Streets Davis Radio (DSDR) creates a forum that aims to help our city and region meet their own well-considered, optimistic yet achievable targets in comprehensive and holistic livability. DSDR is intent on  facilitating this meeting of targets with a tight focus on specific themes and conversation with elected officials, experts and curious citizens eager to share their experience and ideas, with equity and intersectionality the foundation for both form and content.

DSDR takes a critical yet supportive position on the important inter-relationship of mobility, housing, facilities for education and job creation of the City of Davis, Yolo County and the broader region. Many generations of citizens of our town and its neighbors have helped create an impressive set of goals for things such as journeys to primary and secondary school by bicycle, the speed and frequency of commuter trains that serve the area, university student housing, increasing the tax base and climate change.  DSDR hopes to address the most pertiment issues and ask the most important questions to our government bodies , experts and citizens about fulfilling these goals in a cooperative, transparent, honest and earnest manner.

Our show will premiere in to have our first lowcast and live on the Internet show in late September 2017, on Fridays at 12:30pm.

DSDR is produced and hosted by Todd Edelman, a Los Angeles-native who's since lived in San Francisco, New York, Prague and Berlin. In Davis for about a year, Todd has a wide range of experience in both sustainable transport (for example.. his team won a first prize in an international bike share concept competition in Denmark 2009) and independent media (he hosted a public access TV show "Truth TV" in San Francisco in the pre-You Tube era, and also contributed to Deep Dish and Paper Tiger TV).  Todd is intrigued by the sometimes more-subtle-than-expected differences between small town life and the big and famous cities he's lived in, and also his new hometown's history and hope for cycling and its complementary forms of sustainable transportation.

Todd's related and dynamic - though now retired - blog on similar and varied themes is at www.greenidea.eu.
