Institutional Capture at Every Level - Leighton Akio Woodhouse, Public

Leighton Akio Woodhouse is a journalist, Emmy-nominated
documentary filmmaker, and co-founder of Public, a Substack
focused on cities, energy, and the environment. His recent work
has been focused on untangling the urban decay that is sweeping
through American cities, with a focus on the downwing incentive
structures that have created a self-perpetuating homeless
industrial complex whose existence depends on the perpetuation of
the homelessness crisis. We talk about the decay of San
Francisco, how the road to hell is paved with good intentions,
and the chokehold of emotion-first activism. We also discuss the
Twitter Files, widespread involvement of former intelligence
officials at high levels at tech companies, and the end goal of
clamping down on discourse.

Columbia studying the elastic properties of molecular water. When
he's not in the film studio, he's exploring sound in music. They
