About this episode

This episode explores the failure of government systems to take responsibility for harm caused to unhoused individuals.

Episode 2 examines how government systems deflect responsibility by pointing at one another, creating an accountability vacuum where harm is acknowledged but never owned. Through a satirical lens and lived experience, we explore how this institutional stalemate leaves unhoused neighbors paying the price while officials insist no one is at fault.
