Description

America dumps eighty billion dollars a year into "solving" homelessness, but the tents keep multiplying. Jerremy Alexander Newsome and Dave Conley team up with entrepreneur David Jacob and nutrition whiz Leslie Bobb to expose the grift. Personal gut-punches from the streets, the mental health black hole, and why the system cashes checks on endless misery. It's not broken—it's rigged to stay that way. Buckle up for stories that stick and fixes that might actually work.
