Try to build a homeless shelter in a fancy neighborhood, like the Upper East Side or Upper West Side.

It's harder than building a nuclear reactor in those neighborhoods.

Like, they just won't let it happen.

Everybody claims they want to solve this problem, but then people don't want vulnerable people in their backyard.

Welcome to The Lost Debate, a show for politically eclectics. I'm Robbie Gupta. And I'm Ricky Schlaught. Ricky, how's life out in Jersey? All is good. My dad and I are about to head up to

Lilydale, New York, this community of like psychics and mediums to, for an article I'm writing

later today right after we record. And so I'm excited to do that. That's where my biological family is from. So we're about to do an interesting little trip. How's, how's New York? Wait, no, I'm not letting you go. I'm not letting that go. So wait a minute. Your dad doesn't strike me as this sort of psychic type.

He tells everyone about it. And it's an interesting heritage to have, certainly. It doesn't match him at all. He's not very intuitive or like, I don't think he, it's a nature, nurture situation. Well, okay, I can wait to. No, all good. I was just going to say he's definitely was not nurtured to be a psychic but yeah we'll see

maybe maybe something will click while we're there all right well i'm fascinated uh please get some
