Description

Revolting is a cycling podcast that isn’t about bikes, or even cycling really. Hosts Robot and Stevil sift through topics vaguely related to cycling, looking for what’s good, what’s better, and dwelling sometimes on what’s confusing. The guys are looking, and almost never finding, answers. But the fun is in the looking. This a cycling podcast for those not defined by racing, high-performance, or any performance at all really. It’s a podcast for people who just like to ride bikes, and do other stuff, because it’s fun. Revolting is another fine production by The Cycling Independent.

#215: Landing on a Brand New Planet

2026/02/02

Landing on a Brand New Planet. You think your life is headed one way and then suddenly you’re doing something completely different. Maybe someone tells you something that leads to an epiphany, or you read a book that shifts your perspective, or someone introduces you to an activity that lights you up like a casino […]

#214: Tilting at Windmills

2026/01/26

Tilting at Windmills. In 1605, the first edition of Don Quixote hit the shelves, or whatever humans were using to keep their books off the floor then. In it, the aforementioned knight saddles up and hits the dirt road in an attempt to bring back some measure of civic values and romance to his daily […]

#213: Is This Good?

2026/01/19

Is This Good? This week we’re doing something different and hopefully upsetting. We’re going to talk about whether things that everybody seems to like are actually good or just products of a mass hysteria, the sort of feeling that leads to the Salem Witch Trials or the spread of casual fascism. Music pick of the […]

#212: New Year, Old You

2026/01/12

New Year, Old You. 2025 was bullshit. I think we can all agree. It’s 2026 now, and it’s time to throw the old body over a railing and beat it like musty rug, maybe run it through the washing machine on the heavy-duty cycle in hot water with a half cup of bleach. You don’t […]

#211: All of the Holiday Things

2025/12/29

Be the Best Impostor You Can Be. In a world where everyone’s fakin’ it to make it, ain’t nobody the real deal, which means the only natural response is to become the best impostor you possibly can. Fool everyone. Fool yourself. Ride your bike. Shut up. Music pick of the week: Robot – The New […]

#210: Separating the Art from the Artist

2025/12/22

Separating the Art from the Artist. Occasionally you encounter a piece of art, a book, a song, a painting, maybe even a performance, that moves you to the point that it alters the way you see the world, but then you find out the artist responsible is a terrible human, and it leaves you wondering […]

#209: Transcendental Romanticism

2025/12/15

Transcendental Romanticism. We may come off as a little gruff and prone to fits of melancholy and wild perturbation, but really, we’re just sensitive, romantic even. Our nostalgia is a romance for the past, a desperate clinging to things we never fell out of love with, like zines, skateboards, obscure music, artists, etc. Today we […]

#208: In the Shadow of the Valley

2025/12/08

In the Shadow of the Valley. Middle-age is a real problem, mainly because it comes with most of the challenges of old age, deteriorating body, addled mind, divorce, asteroids, and existential crisis, but you’ve still got to have a job and pretend you care about stuff. Sadly, also, you lose friends and mentors, and today […]

#207: It Only Hurts When I Exist

2025/12/01

It Only Hurts When I Exist. Oh, we’ve all had our share of boo-boos, but a few stand out, and today we’re gonna tell our best injury and mishap stories and try to figure out which pain was the most painful pain of them all, besides of course the soul pain inherent in everyday human […]

#206: The Sunk Time Fallacy

2025/11/24

The Sunk Time Fallacy. People have a funny way of plowing their energy into bad ideas, and once they’ve made that initial investment, they keep going just to prove to themselves that the original idea wasn’t a bad one. We do this with jobs, relationships, and religions. The fear of change is one factor. Ego […]

#205: The Day in Front of Us

2025/11/17

The Day in Front of Us. Whether you’re rich or poor, sick or well, lazy or really, really lazy, you have to figure out what to do with your day. That seems like the fundamental conundrum facing humanity, and sure, the less money or health you have maybe the more of those choices get made […]

#204: Good Dope, Bad Dope

2025/11/10

Good Dope, Bad Dope. Whether you’re a street junky or not, you spend a lot of your day looking for the next little bump of dopamine. Whole oligarchies have grown up around the business of selling you small doses of your own brain chemicals. You hate that, but keep scrolling, because ultimately we’re all addicted […]

#203: Putting Baby in the Corner

2025/11/03

Putting Baby in the Corner. You’re a grown ass person with decades of life experience and refined tastes, and yet, somewhere in your mental closet you’ve got an array of awkward nostalgic loves for people, places and things that no longer fit your view of yourself as a person, like when you smoked weed and […]

#202: Something. Something. Male Friendships. Discuss.

2025/10/27

Something. Something. Male Friendships. Discuss. The common consensus is that the male population of Earth is experiencing an epidemic of loneliness, which leads to climbing rates of depression and suicide. We both have lots of friends, including being friends with each other, so today we’re going to explain how to be friends with other men, […]

#201: Gee, Your Hair Smells Terrific. I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter.

2025/10/19

Gee, Your Hair Smells Terrific. I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter. We express a lot of opinions on this show, and opinions are like smart phones. Everyone has one and they all destroy your brain. Even if we’re right that Foo Fighters make terrible music, how do we hold real and genuine space in our […]

Upper echelon of mediocrity

I listen to it while I ride my bike a quarter century. Sometimes even a half century. It’s just that dang good.
