Every America Must Listen and Learn

The conversations and questions we are having with one another is now being answered through this wonderful podcast. The middle and lower classes are run out of town by those with the many mighty dollars. Stay still. Listen. Learn. Neighborhoods are being turned right side up and upside down!

Amazing & Informative

Every Angelino should listen to this podcast. It is still extremely relevant. I wish KCRW would pick this up again given the issues caused by the pandemic.
