In 2011, I voluntarily lived homeless in Chicago for four months to better understand the subject and who it affects. What goes through a person's mind experiencing homelessness and what can be done? Homelessness has become more visible and discussed in cultural conversations in recent years. In this episode, I open up and share some of my experience and things I learned and applied since. How it's impact my approach to life and views of U.S. politics. Cousin Frank joins me in the farmhouse studio to guide our conversations with questions.
