In this episode we discuss Hashi Mohamed`s latest book A Home of One`s Own, where we discuss his own past suffering of housing security and his reflections of the housing crisis from his professional background as a planning barrister.
In the book Hashi discusses how the voice of the very people who one day might benefit from homes being built are unrepresented and how power structures involving planning seem to keep it that way. Listen to the podcast to find out how these structures stifle progress and what it ultimately means to have a home.

The #PricedOutPodcast is back! This time we talk to M. Nolan Gray about his new book: Arbitrary Lines, How Zoning Broke the American City

Nolan Gray is the research director for our friends over at California YIMBY and writes brilliantly about how the seemingly-dull topic of land use regulation drives how we live and stunts the growth of our cities. This is not an interview to miss!
