Snap Studios.

Hey, it's Glenn Washington, the host of Snap Judgment, and Snap's bringing something very special.

Join Snap producer Shana Shealy as she follows a small group of homeless people in Oakland, California, for years years documenting their epic battle for their own place on their own terms.

We're excited to finally bring that story to you and recalling it a tiny plot.

A Snap Judgment five-part series about scarcity, survival, community, and the one thing people in this group want it most

control over their own lives. A tiny plot. Episodes are dropping now. Listen right here on Snap Judgment. Okay, so I live in Oakland, right?

The beautiful San Francisco Bay Area.

Let's imagine someone from here meets someone special.

And they want to progress to the next level.

There's nothing people from the Bay love to do more than go to L.A.

And vice versa.

People from L.A. love to come up to the Bay.

Now, often, we'll fly down.

But really, the map has been done on this.

You don't save a lot of time point to point by flying as opposed to driving.

You don't.

And time right, you can make the drive in about six hours.

And friends, these hours can let you know if the person you are with is someone for the long haul or someone you have to ditch,

it turns out that six hours in a car with someone, six hours, that is a lot of hours.

A lot of time, that entails a lot of decisions, a lot of potential triumphs, setbacks around flashing lights.

Who controls the radio?

Who drives?
