the situation here seems to be very tragic, but also a bit contradictory. the artists have a communal lifestyle, but they don't seem to want to invite the unhoused people around them to join them. they seem very judgemental and afraid (perhaps reasonably at times) of the addicts adjacent to their community. idk, i got judgy vibes off the interview-ee that sort of soured this episode for me. amazing work on the pod, as always
