#40: Ask almost anyone who lives in Los Angeles to talk about the state of the city; it's pretty much guaranteed they’ll tell you homelessness is where they want to see change. Mayor-elect Karen Bass says she'll tackle the issue the day she enters office and has pledged to house 15,000 people in year one and end encampments. But at this point, the homelessness issue is downright overwhelming. Where should she focus her energies? We sought out some local experts for their thoughts.
Guests: Gary Painter, director of the homelessness policy research institute; Theo Henderson, author, podcast host, homelessness advocate; Sebastian Arias, Pit Stop ambassador
