If Radio Topia was a place, it would be the junk drawer.

And I don't mean because anything here is junk.

I mean, because it's so fun to go in there and you never know what you're going to get.

There's things that you love that you forgot about and you find new things that you didn't

even know you had.

I'm Ian Chilag, the creator of Everything's Alive.

I'm Aisha Menon, writer and host of Mumbai Crime.

If Radio Topia was a place, it would be like Willy Wonka's chocolate factory.

Your golden ticket to a world full of possibilities.

Everything's Alive is a proud member of Radio Topia from PRX, the Home for Independent

Podcasts.

I'm part of Radio Topia because they have always put creativity over profit.

They understand and nurture the unique.

And that's what we are.

Thank you so much.

Before we start, I want to note that this episode was produced in conjunction with Pop-Up

Magazine for their sidewalk issue.

In three cities across the United States, you could walk up to the bike you're about to

meet, chained up to a bike rack, and here what he had to say directly from him.

My person, I haven't seen him in a while.

Carry?
