KFI a.m. 640. You're listening to the John Cobel podcast on the IHeart Radio app.

Mark Thompson for John Cobel today and is Friday. It's a wet one. We've been on and off rain.

because there is a lot of money that is spent in the city of L.A.

And the county of L.A. and in a joint operation known as the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority.

That is governed by both the city and the county.
