This episode introduces Elvina Beck, the owner and director of PodShare, a group of five (as of Aug. 2019) co-housing living spaces throughout Los Angeles along with one site in San Francisco. Elvina is also a resident – a ‘member’ – of PodShare, and she talks about how it all got started. We also talk one more time with housing reporter Anna Scott, in particular about Paul, an individual she’s reported on, who lives in an SRO-type hotel and has a steady job after many years of homelessness; she talks about the challenges of living in a small room with no kitchen, and the challenges of staying off the streets.
