This week, Briahna convenes an all-star panel of guests to break down the economic and philosophical roots of the housing crisis, and how to solve it. Rebecca Parson, a candidate for Washington's 6th congressional district, brings her personal experiences with homelessness to bear, along with observations from her district, while Canadian attorney and Global Director of THE SHIFT housing initiative, Leilani Farha, offers a global perspective. Finally, sociologist, anthropologist Dr. Dan Souleles joins from Copenhagen to apply his work on financial capitalism, and the role private equity has played in the housing market. The conversation spans the practical to the philosophical, and only deepens as it progresses. Stick around till the end, and join Briahna on Callin later this evening to discuss.

Great conversation.

Housing doesn't get enough attention. The yimby astro turf movement has had great success partially because many aren't able to counter their market fundamentalism bs or buy into it. Can't wait to listen in.

The psychological aspect they were discussing is particularly important. This is one of those "people contain multitudes" situations and a great deal of propaganda effort goes into stoking that mindset. The famous "Israeli Carpool Study" is a fine example of that duality. It's where the whole NIMBY mindset comes from. They also touched on other important topics like state budget constraints that make it problematic for them to adequately build up and even maintain critical infrastructure. And the comments about FDRs OPA were 🔥. All around fabulous episode!

Surprising lack of abortion commentary on the pod. The feminist ep post leak was about bimbo tik-tok rather than the overthrow of Roe we all knew was coming. So strange.

Super illuminating. Loved this!

The discussion on the unique attitude of American homeowners was excellent!!!

Just catching up and thought this episode was great. Really interesting about how housing being an "investment" leads to so much resistance to changes that would benefit others.
