In this episode, host Ryan Norris talks with Dr. Emily Hamilton of the Mercatus Center and Duke McLarty, Executive Director of Groundwork in Northwest Arkansas. Together, they explore why affordable housing is so hard to build—and what Arkansas can do about it.

Dr. Hamilton brings a national perspective on how zoning and land-use rules drive housing costs, while McLarty shares how Groundwork is advancing smart, local solutions to expand housing options for working families.

If you’ve ever wondered why home prices keep climbing or how policy can make housing more attainable, this episode connects the dots between regulation, reform, and real opportunity for Arkansans.
