The Adam and Dr. Drew Show - #2025 - Shopping Centers for the ULTRA RICH!

Episode Date: July 30, 2025

Adam and Dr. Drew kick things off by weighing the beauty of California against its increasingly dysfunctional governance. Dr. Drew asks how Rick Caruso foresaw the need to hire a private fire department just days before the Southern California wildfires hit, leading Adam to compare Caruso’s foresight with Mayor Karen Bass’s lackluster response. The conversation turns to an old LA Times article about how Dr. Drew was considered for the city’s homeless commission, sparking backlash from the political left.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Recording live at Corolla One Studios with Adam Corolla and board certified physician and addiction medicine specialist Dr. Drew Pinsky. You're listening to the Adam and Dr. Drew Show. Yeah, get it on, get it on, get it on, get it on, man? So much, so much. I kind of had a lot of thoughts. I was just wanted to share something with you. I was over at Harlan Williams House yesterday. Oh my God, that view from his house. He was telling me you had been up there. And I just thought, this is like, if you saw a movie about Los Angeles,

that's the view you imagine. And I was looking out over that landscape going, oh yeah, that's right. That's why I stay here. This shithole is such a mess. They've destroyed this place. But when you stand back and look at how beautiful it is and the weather is amazing and you see the ocean off in the distance, it's like, that's why you stay. Uh, even though they're doing everything they can to chase us out.

Yeah. even though they're doing everything they can to chase us out. Yeah, man, I know. I interviewed Rick Caruso the other day. And it's so, first off, it's so symbolic. If you think about it, if you wanna know sort of the two different paths you could take in terms of governing.

Just really think about the symbolism of this. So I talked to Rick and we went over to his palisades place and he has all these, look, I don't wanna call them malls, facilities, grounds or whatever. They're beautiful and he has them in Glendale and he has one in Westlake Village and blah blah blah. But he said, I said, how does it work, the whole private fire department

and all that kind of stuff. And look, the first thing is, folks don't want to conceal and carry and people don't want to have security and people don't want to have to pay for their own fire department. We would not like to have to pay for that. We're not supposed to have to. We're not supposed to have to. It's just like, I would like, you know, when a refrigerator burns out or a sofa gets too much cat piss on it, I would like to just drag it out to the curb and leave it and then have the city pick it up. Yes. Because I pay enough in taxes, but that's not how it works.

I don't want to pay somebody to come pick it up, but I must. I remember when you said you wanted your own trash, but in your own cop back in your early days, I do say that anymore because you've gotten ground down. Yeah. All right. So here's the deal. He had to retain his own fire department. And these guys are guns for hire and you pay them yearly. And when the shit happens, like a retainer on an attorney. But the interesting question is how did he know that he was going to need that? They were, well, he knew he was going to need it because A, he knows the incompetence of the city council in Los Angeles and he knows Nithya Raman is burning all her calories down in the Hyperion Boulevard trying to take U-turn signs down so gay guys can cruise again. That's take on Toyota to make taking out

her Kevlar Converters more difficult. She's busy taking on Toyota, tearing down U-turn signs and making sure they tear down tree houses that have been in Sherman Oaks for 30 years that the kids enjoy. Okay, they're busy. Yeah. See what I'm saying?

Yeah. So, and he knew that the forest enjoy. Okay, they're busy. See what I'm saying? And he knew that the forest is mismanaged and he knew the aqueducts have cracks in them. He also knows he's dealing with incompetence. They're incompetent people, they're not serious people, he's a serious person. So he does what responsible, serious, sober people do, which is they engage their own knowing they get insurance essentially against the incompetence yeah it's insurance and and speaking of insurance that he saves a lot on insurance oh interesting oh yeah I mean he's a businessman it's like and so are they the insurance company their insurance yes and they don't want his billion dollar they don't want to pay

for that again. No, so it all works. That's what responsible people do. And so then two days before the fire hits, his crew is already on site. Because they predicting wins? Yes, yes. Everyone, by the way, I heard a hundred million reports.

I didn't hear a hundred million reports about fires. I heard a hundred million reports about winds. Big winds coming. I have no idea how they can predict the wind. I don't know. It's crazy. It's almost like. Especially two or three days ahead.

It's like shaman like, you know what I mean? Like, okay, Indian, like, you know, like an elder. That guy would rule the land if he could predict the wind. You know what I mean? But somehow they knew the winds were coming. And part of what probably he pays for is for them to be constantly sitting on a radar looking at what's coming. They have to sit and check weather all day every day. I mean that's part of their job,

the vigilance of the fire crew. So two days beforehand they were all on site with trucks putting fire retardant down on the roofs of the building and doing things you would do to prevent things. Wouldn't it beg consideration that the city maybe call those guys in and go, hey, what do you know that we could do to do a better job? You know what I mean? What do they think? They don't want to do better. No, no, but what do they think the city should be doing? You know what I mean? Oh, yeah. I would be curious to know should, if they were to evaluate the city's sort of fire preparedness, what would they recommend?

I'd like to hear it. I'd like to hear that more than I'd like to hear about catalytic converters and Toyotas. Well they didn't wanna... You wanted to go in five years ago and talk about the homeless situation. 10 years ago. No.

Me? Yeah. Oh yeah. I've been worried about this. I know. I know. You made a bid to go in oh, five years ago. Well, let's think about it was pre COVID. Right? I know. When did the LA Times article come out about it's a good question. You can look that up. Come on. Yeah. All right. It's gonna be five years ago. Okay. You'll be

right. Okay. Let's keep moving. Okay. Yeah, I. All right, it's gonna be five years ago. Okay, you'll be right. Okay, let's not go through that. Let's keep moving. Okay. Hey! I know. No, you wanted to go in always, in your heart, but you made a move and they booted you out. All right, so they're not interested in outside counsel

on the job they're doing. It may bring a little shame to them to find out that maybe they're not doing this, you know, a bang-up job So that's off the table. They don't talk to anybody by the way, it's a It's kind of petulant chick thing, you know, like fuck you and your knowledge, you know, I people do it to me all the time You know like I don't know. Yeah, it's like all right. I don't know why you don't I would ask rick caruso What he wants what his thoughts are on everything. Yes.

The article in the Times is 2021. Oh, really? Well, what month? It doesn't matter, I mean, it was five years ago. I wanna know what month. No, it wasn't, well, I mean. Is this a joke was the headline of that so-called journalist.

Jackie, what's the name on there? April was the month, April 2021. So it's been four and a half. Four and a half years. Jacqueline Cosgrove. Cosgrove. Yeah. She did not ask me what my training was.

She had no idea why I would be appropriate for a job like that. She did no journalism, none, although she talked to a homeless advocate in New England, who is well known for being very distorted in his views on things. And he has no idea who I am or what I've done. Oh my God. And you got to read, we got to read on this article. So ridiculous. You gotta read on this article. It's so ridiculous. So, they don't want your advice, Drew,

and they don't want Rick Caruso's advice, and then want people around, they don't want it. All right, hold this article for a second. I'll get angry about it, but I'll just clear it for a second because Dr. Drew won't be able to think right. Now, the point is, is two days before the Fire came Rick was there with all his people in place and then his place is untouched and everything around him is destroyed Okay, Karen Bass is in Ghana

Chorus doing I don't know what business in behalf of Los Angelinos, but she's in Ghana. I'm sure we paid for the ticket. And then she went there because they're swearing in a new prime minister or something in Ghana. So of course she would need to be there. Yes, of course. So that's where she was. So those were our two choices for mayor. And we chose the one who wanted to go to Ghana. Okay. That's the decision

we made. And that's who my mom would have liked to see in charge. Yeah. Now, now that things burned to the ground, maybe there'll be some sobering up or something. I don't know. It's a weird, it's weird how far, how long that can milk the sort of incompetent thing based on some sort of, there's a great tweet. There's a tweet that Andrew can find. I sent out a drone shot that Andrew did, went through, I sent it to you, but I tweeted it out and it was sort of

flying through the wreckage of a building and then up over a pristine acreage, which is Rick Caruso's, and then in the background was just acres of scorched earth. Which by the way, now that they've cleaned everything up, just looked like farmland. It's just like dirt. It just looks like... It doesn't even present as, oh, these were neighborhoods. It just looks like open land. You know what I mean? They were very elaborate neighborhoods. They were very evolved. Yeah. All right. So that's all gone. But the point is, I sent that out there and I said guess which property Rick Caruso was in charge of and not everything that was burnt out. That was that was Karen Bass's turf or loss.

It's such a vivid metaphor for what's going on. And I see Spencer Pratt on the war path. He's out there posting about it. But why aren't people getting it? Well, one of the first comments that was given to this was a great one which was Care to remind me care to remind us which luxury empire Rick Caruso was running while pretending to understand the people? What's he talking about? Well, it's a class warfare thing. Remember I used to say literally a millionaire?

Cause they were always like, no one's gonna listen to you if they find out. And I was like, what, fuck you. Why wouldn't they listen? What do you mean? I'm successful. You listen to me. Yeah, so anyway, he's pretending to understand.

Okay. What about when a rich guy builds a hospital? Is that okay, or pretending to understand sick people, or what does that mean? Do you know what I mean? What if Rick Carissa just built an aqueduct? Would that be okay with Cashey? Anyway, was it the Grove or maybe that billionaire playground

in Palisades Village where a latte costs more than minimum wage. By the way, this guy's a problem solver, isn't he? Oh my God. First off, it drives me nuts when people go, they're gonna charge $12. You don't have to buy a latte. Don't buy it. Don't buy it.

Exactly. Or go down the street to the Starbucks. And by the way, he doesn't determine the cost of a latte. Well, it's worth millionaire friends. It's fat cat friends. The reason I go nuts on this is because I grew up with this. I grew up with these idiots. It's economic illiteracy.

How exactly does someone worth billions whose entire career is building upscale shopping centers for the ultra rich, by the way, have you been down to the Americana in Glendale? Been to the Grove, been to the Americana. It's a bunch of fucking Armenian families and flip flops and shorts, like walking around with their kids.

Yes, it's the community. It's the Glendale community. Go check the parking structure. See how many Maybachs and Ferraris you see in there. There's like fucking RAV4s. Yeah, yeah. The ultra rich. They better get rid of that.

They have a pizza factory. What do they have there? They have very themed restaurants for the ultra rich. For the ultra rich. Ultra rich love a slice. So, where, let's see, how exactly does someone, okay, we did that one, right, for the ultra rich. Where was this empathy when your tenants were struggling with rent hikes? So wait a minute, is this like,

are these ultra rich outlets? Are these like Prada? I mean, okay, you built a mall for the ultra rich in there. It's not gonna be a Chuck E. Cheese. There's gotta be Prada and all, Ferrari, Lamborghini dealership, Apple, right? Yeah, of course. So Apple's struggling to pay rent in your ultra rich,

or, sorry, pay rent hikes, or when homeless people were being pushed away from your properties like trash. Yeah, turns out families that go to malls don't like stepping over homeless people. And that's part of the reason his places are attractive, is because they're clean and they're safe. Anyway, this guy, this retard is the reason why we end up with Karen Bass and everything else, homeless and

garbage and everywhere because these people won't tolerate. Can you click through on that? They're noble somehow. It gives them some nobility. They care. They care. And he's stealing from everybody. His rent is stealing. His lattes are stealing. Yeah. He's stealing. I just love, I love the premise that he's setting.

He's going by one of his properties and there's a mon-pa coffee shop and he pulls in and goes, what are you charging for a latte? And there's $7. $7? Not on my watch. Let's make's $7. $7? Not on my watch. Let's make it $19.

But sir, they're holding their hat with two hands. But sir, we would go out of business. Our people are working, common people who need a latte. I don't want that trash in here. $19, you're out. And then he leaves. Because he's, if I said to Rick Caruso, what is the cost of a latte in one of your shops on one of your places?

He'd go, I don't know. They're not his business. It's not my business. They pay rent, and then they sell lattes or not. They sell whatever they want, and they charge what they want for the latte. And by the way, the market determines what the price can carry, what they can do. Yes. But that's again, that economic illiteracy they have.

Yeah. Well- Who is that guy? I don't know. I want to know who that guy is. Can you look him up for us? I feel like that is everyone who- I want to call Jackie Cosgrove and just go, what? Come on. Are you not embarrassed? You're not embarrassed? That's the journalist that did the article the other time. Well, let's try what, come on. Are you not embarrassed? You're not embarrassed as the journalist that did the article the other day.

Well, let's try to get her on. Get her on the show? Yeah, she won't come on. She won't come on. Right, why not? By the way, everyone, have me on and ask me about anything I've said over the last 10 years. And I'll fucking, I'll come on anybody's show

and I will set you straight. That's what I'll do. Talk to me about my stance on the homeless. I'll come on, talk to me about my stance on COVID. I'll come on, talk to me about any subject, Gavin Newsome, any subject I brought up. Come, have me on and then get the best of me. Good fucking luck.

But how come these pussies will never come on and defend their shit? Right. Because you're mean. You'll shame them. All right, we'll find that article or we'll get into that article. It's going to be kind of cool.

Take a quick break. Be right back after this. This summer, Pluto TV is exploding with thousands of free movies. Summer of cinema is here. Feel the explosive action all summer long with movies like Gladiator, Mission Impossible, Beverly Hills Cop, Good Burger, and Transformers Dark of the Moon. Bring the action with you and stream for free from all your favorite devices. Pluto TV, stream now, pay never. I do want to see who that guy is. Just curious. It's so curious. Yeah. Oh, here it is. In covering everything, questioning always. Mozambique?

Is he from Mozambique? I don't know. He's like just a hired, maybe just a hired troll or something. I, it sounds to me, this stuff sounds very cut and pasty to me, like it doesn't sound like anyone really. It's a, as dumb and cliche as all these guys are, this one sounds too dumb and too cliche. He's in Mozambique.

Oh, wait, wait, there's a billionaire thing. So holding billionaires accountable means we end up with Karen Bass. How? Wild he'll panic when the rich get questioned, but stay silent when the poor get, oh, it's you. It's because you say, how do, this is how we end up with Karen Bass,

and I think you showed the video or something. Yes, yes, yeah. All right, he's you. It's because you say, this is how we end up with Karen Bass. And I think you showed the video or something. Yes, yes, yeah. All right, he's an idiot. But I still want to see that LA Times article, because that's a good one. All right, so Drew, set the table. So Kathryn Barger, who at the point was the director of the Board of Supervisors, calls me.

And she goes, there's a position on LASA, which is essentially the committee that allocates the money for homeless services. And they've spent $24 billion in the last five years. And oh, oops, the head of that commission, who gets something like $800,000 a year or 600, was hiring her husband for some of the work. But okay, all right, who am I to say? Anyway, Catherine Barger called me multiple. I did not want to do this. It sounded like a

gruesome job. And she finally said, please, please, please. I said, okay. I said, you know what? I should look at what they're doing. I should go in. I will go in with an open heart and an open mind and I'll keep my mouth shut for a while. And, I'm willing to do it." So she goes, we'll just talk to this Cargrove... Casgrove? What's her... Jackie... Jacqueline Cosgrove. Jacqueline Cosgrove. Talk to her because she's a good one. I said, I don't do print. LA Times is full of shit. They never, ever do their job. They always distort what I say. I'm not going to talk to anybody that works in that shit rag. And she goes, please, please, please. She's one of the good ones. I went, okay, I'll talk to her. She calls me. She asked a couple of questions and I just said, she essentially asked, what do you want to do? I said, look,

I'm going to go in there. I'm going to go in. I literally said, I'm going to go in with an open heart and an open mind and I want to listen and I want to learn. And I've got some expertise in this area, but I want to see what they're doing and I want to help. That was it. That was NatureBrain Review. So shall we see what she says in response to that? Well, it's behind the paywall, but the, by the way, what's happened to Jackie Cosgrove? She's still working there? Oh, sure. The downsize. What do? She still working there? Do the downsides? What do you mean you're sure? That fucking rag's gone under, man.

I want it, so go ahead. You want me to read it? I, by the way, won't do any print. I just will not do print, because they always distort and... All right, I'll read. Los Angeles County supervisor has recommended celebrity doctor.

Okay, first of all, celebrity doctor. Yeah, yeah, I know. Who has rallied. Railed. Sorry, railed against California mishandling of the homeless crisis. I like to say crisis. Is it a crisis when you just create it? To a local commission,

a move that shocked some advocates, by the way, I love when people say they were shocked. Why is that shocking? As someone who has a field of expertise, who when they heard the news, thought it was a joke. Did they think it was a joke? This one guy. I don't even know that he thought that. He probably said that. He's known for... Oh, he doesn't think it's a joke. He goes,

is this some kind of joke? But he doesn't think it's a joke. Exactly. Dr. David Drew Pinsky, more commonly known as Dr. Drew, was recommended by Fifth District Supervisor, Catherine Barger, recommended by 5th district supervisor, Kathleen Barger, the only Republican on the five member board. Oh, that's why this town's a piece of shit. For the Los Angeles Homeless Service authority, a- That's the law, sir.

Sorry, a 10 member commission appointed by the city council elected officials. Barger said she nominated Pinsky because he will bring a fresh perspective to the commission with his vast medical experience and passion for mental health. I don't know what's going on. But critics pounced, saying Pinsky promotes ill-informed and harmful views toward homeless drug addicts,

including an enforcement-focused approach on homelessness like Echo Park, which got cleaned up. Four tons of human feces were taken out of Echo Park. Four tons. Yeah, yeah. So yes, you recommend, well, you recommend something. They recommend nothing. Well, now, read the bottom. Pinsky made- The remarks, no, the remarks. Hold on, Pinsky made headlines in April

after a series of remarks over a two month period that were skeptical of COVID-19 comparing the thing to a flu, calling the pandemic a press-induced pandemic. Well, that's true. Eventually apologized, shouldn't have done that. I shouldn't have. The remarks were part of a larger trend with Pinsky, said Mark Horvath, founder of the nonprofit, yeah, they go out of state and talk to nonprofits, fucking GMOs. All right, yeah, anyway, what were the comments? Even on the surface level,

why are you appointing a celebrity doctor? And I use the term doctor loosely. I should sue the guy. Yeah, I guess you should. That has recent activity with being a COVID denier. I'm always a COVID denier too. Who the fuck was wrong about COVID, you bitch? Anyway, COVID denier. Ann Horvath also launched this homeless advocacy group in 2008. Although the commission has authority to make budgetary funding, planning,

and programming policy, it's unclear how much power Pinsky would have on an individual basis. The commission sketches, what's it say? I can barely, selects. I can't really read it from here. The commission selects a lot, whoops. There it is, I can barely select. I can't really read it from here. The commission selects a lot. Whoops, there it is.

All the way down. Pinsky appointment. Way off now. We're way off. All right. Although the commission has authority, okay, would have individual. All right, the commission selects executive director,

blah, blah, blah, individual staff decision, blah, blah, blah. Pinsky appointment is on the agenda for Tuesday's Board of Supervisors meeting generally. The board unanimously approves appointments to local boards and commissions at the beginning of the meeting as part of the agenda. They are rarely, if ever seen as controversial.

You're controversial, Jerry. I know, it's terrible. Pinsky62 said he was surprised at the uproar pointing a physician who wants to donate his time to work the metal. Pinsky disputes the idea that homeless is caused primarily by a lack of housing. Yeah, he disputes that.

He and every fucking nine-year-old who's got a set of eyeballs, bitch, he said the primary drivers of Los Angeles homeless crisis are rooted in lack of services for treatment of mental illness and drug addiction. Yeah, remember I told that to Gavin Newsom 13 years ago? Many homeless people with a serious mental illness and drug addiction. Yeah, remember I told that to Gavin Newsom 13 years ago? Many homeless people with a serious mental illness, he said, are unable to recognize the illness and affect their lives. Something is directly wrong, blah, blah, blah. What else?

Oh, I said something's dreadfully long and people are dying. I live in Pasadena. That's my biggest concern when I go out and walk and talk to homeless people, I encounter my patients almost exclusively. This doesn't mean that that's all that's out there. So yeah, the hell I now she launches into involuntary commitment. Well, I but the point is, the point is this, this is four and a half years ago, what's going on with the homeless? It's it's just shit show. So now it's a universal agreement that I was right.

Now there's no longer any denial about that. Oh no, there's still is. No, no, now still home housing first, but okay, they're all sick. We got it. I sent a tweet out a couple days ago about somebody was talking about homelessness, about a lack of housing and whatever.

Listen, here's the deal everybody. We used to debate with these people and sort of explain things and go no, no, no, no, no, no. And you know, Gavin Newsom would explain what the real face of homelessness, the real picture, the real picture looked like. It was a mom, it was a mom with kids who just divorced, she had a full time job. No, she didn't lose her job. She had a full time job, she was making minimum wage. The real picture looked like was a mom as a mom with kids who just divorced No, she's a full-time job. She's making minimum wage, right? Okay, so

There was a time when we used to try to explain things to people and stuff It's now with them right now. It's like okay. You assholes are nuts. You're super fucking destructive You need to step aside. Yes, need to mock you mercilessly. But the press are part of the problem. Oh, don't worry press, we're not listening to you anymore. There's no, you have no nothing. You're gonna, you know, you go on CNN, it's like, what is this whole Obama, the, you know, Russia thing, what that doesn't,

okay, no one's, sorry, CNN, you know, Russia thing. What that doesn't have? Okay, no one's, sorry CNN, no one's, invite all the ex spooks in the FBI and the CIA. What's that Brenner on here to set the record? Yeah, go ahead, talk old man. Just keep talking. No one's listening to you anymore. You're such, you fucked up your business. It reminds me of what you were predicting about the safe spaces and octagons. And I've been thinking about that a lot lately. And, and you know, when you really think about it, it was sort of, it's an evolution, right? And the evolution was this one group was just, just leaning on everybody. Like, like you're toxic, you're this,

you're supremacist, you're leaning, leaning, leaning. And they all went towards the octagon. And now you've got that group still there, but the octagon group is no longer like affected by it or something. And they're certainly not listening to the outlets of that other group. So there's no business model for that stuff.

No, this isn't the tweet by the way, but it said somebody, some homeless advocate just was talking about it's about housing and whatever. And I just went in on him. But listen, if I could treat psychiatric illness by putting somebody in four walls, holy crap, look how easy that would be. We wouldn't need psychiatrists. Get rid of them.

Yeah. I mean, this was another one where somebody said, well, okay, what if we just magically took everyone that's on the street and put them in a hotel room? Half of them would die, for one thing. By the way, in San Francisco, they essentially did that, and that's where most of the deaths are. There's uptick in deaths, and something like 70% of the deaths in San Francisco now are in the four walls. Oh, well, Jacqueline Cosgrove still writes for the LA Times. So we should put an invite out to her to come on the show. It's been almost five years.

And let's see how well her article held up. Yeah. And by the way, we can get the good folks from Newsweek to come on and talk to me about my Covid stances as well. Well, New York Times. I like talking about my Covid stances. well. Well, the New York Times. I like to talk about the New York Times about my COVID stances. Right, except for their cowards and their pussies and Jacqueline's a fucking coward and a pussy and she doesn't stand by her work. She doesn't even know what her work is.

I would declare that. When I asked her why she didn't at least ask for my training and experience, why didn't you ask about it? Because it's a hit piece and she's a fucking coward and a hack, but Jacqueline, you will, I don't know when to go treated fairly. You'll have a microphone, it'll be on and you can make your point. I think she said, us talking about her makes her scared. She gets hit on social media or something.

Well she's a hack. It's dangerous. It's dangerous to have them. Oh shut up. Listen, obviously whatever article Jacqueline Cosgrove writes about, you should not listen to it because... Not that, what she writes about me, I fucking dealt with it for six months. I got attacked. Are you kidding me? Anyway, she should come on and explain her position, which she won't because she's a coward. And she knows she's wrong and she knows she doesn't have the faculties and the ability to do it What do you think about my idea of this welcome that there's a servant evolution underway?

and you sort of predicted it did you see it as an evolving thing, you know what I mean, or just a Like a leap to the safe spaces and octagons. I want to find this tweet. It's bothering me it's three days old or four days old, but Poor Andrew. I'm able to save it for the next show it's a Homeless advocate basically explaining and then I I I tweeted at him But I don't know why I don't know how the computer works, that's my that's my thing. So about three days old maybe it's four days old, I don't know how the computer works. That's my thing. It's about three days old.

Maybe it's four days old. I don't know. And I just wrote, you can't fit more dumb words into somebody's mouth or something like that. Oh, I retweeted that. You did. You said it was the dumbest statement you've ever, you can't put more dumb into a sentence than what you've.

Right, but why is that not findable, I guess is what I'm saying. I don't know if you can find it on my screen. I saw that tweet earlier? I guess is what I'm saying. I don't know, let's see if we can find it on my side. I saw that tweet earlier, I'll find it for a sec. Hold on a sec. Because I retweeted it. Yes, safe space is knocked down, screw.

That's all. Unless. Here it is. I don't know how you could pack this much stupid into one sentence, is it that one? I would read, I would read. Because my whole point is there's still people talking that way. It's a whole thread, by the way. It's his initial thing. A reminder, framing homelessness as a problem of mental illness or addiction has been politically

manufactured. All right, who is this retired? Brian Goldstone. Maybe you can figure out. Brian underscore Goldstone.
