Florence and James's quiet evening in front of the TV comes to an abrupt end when a young teenager, Alex, arrives at their door badly beaten and in clear distress. Florence, a nurse, acts quickly and brings him inside, but James, who spends most of his free time in the darker sections of the internet, is immediately unsure. The situation escalates when James is sent a video purporting to show Alex, accompanied by extremely serious sexual allegations. Before James can eject Alex from the house, a mob, whipped up by online extremists, arrives outside seeking vigilante justice. Florence stands firm and won't hand Alex over based on an online accusation. Can their relationship survive as the mob's pressure grows?

In 1955, the integration of a lily white Cleveland suburb began with one Black family and an unexpected response from that family's new neighbors. While some had responded with the racism and bigotry common to that era, the neighbors welcomed them and stood with them. Eventually, together they created an intentionally integrated community in Ludlow, on the west side of Shaker Heights.rnrnThese events set a course for the community and the Shaker Heights school district became a beacon for racial school integration and academic excellence. But not without its challenges. In Dream Town: Shaker Heights and the Quest for Racial Equity, author Laura Meckler explores Shake Heights school's history as a case study of what's possible and how hard the work can be.rnrnUsing her years of experience as a journalist, Meckler turns her investigative eye toward the city that formed her, delving into difficult questions about this complicated part of Shaker Heights' history-and its effects on the country's racial academic achievement gap. Publishers Weekly called the book "a nuanced and impressively detailed study of the barriers to racial equality."rnrnMeckler is a national education reporter for The Washington Post. She previously worked at The Wall Street Journal and The Associated Press. She was part of the team that won the George Polk Award for Justice Reporting for a 2020 series on the life of George Floyd. Before coming to Washington, Laura covered state government in Columbus. She got her start at The Repository in Canton.

What happens when a city on the verge of collapse tries to reinvent itself? How much will it cost? Who will pay the price? Reporter David Weinberg spent years following one city in California's Mojave desert as it tried to transform itself from a city of prisons to a city of pot. And it worked...for a while. Until it, spectacularly, didn't. From Crooked Media, this is Dreamtown: The Story of Adelanto.  

The recent election fills Adelanto's city council with fresh faces, including the conservative hippie John “Bug” Woodard Jr. But his plan to bring weed to the city is far from complete. He needs to actually pass a cannabis legalization ordinance via City Hall. There's just one problem: he doesn't have the votes. You can find the full season of Dreamtown: The Story of Adelanto wherever you get your podcasts.

Adelanto, California, was broke. Could legalizing marijuana cultivation offer a fix? Reporter David Weinberg's podcast Dreamtown details how the path to salvation was marred by scandal, debt, and corruption. This episode was produced by Avishay Artsy, edited by Matt Collette, fact-checked by Serena Solin, engineered by Patrick Boyd and Cristian Ayala, and hosted by Noel King.

In this episode, we hear the story of Yuval Degani, the owner of Dreamtown Realty. Yuval started Dreamtown in 1998 from scratch. Capitalizing on the early internet, he developed a website that was ahead of its time, and helped lead to explosive growth. Now he leads a company with over 400 agents spread out in offices across Chicago and Evanston. The conversation starts from Yuval coming to Chicago from Israel, and starting a bike rental company with a friend of his. Yuval then was searching for a home, and decided that he wanted to get his real estate broker’s license and earn the commission instead of hiring someone. From there he started Dreamtown Realty, and worked on real estate to fill the off-season time when the bike rental business was closed. Needless to say he was hooked in real estate and Dreamtown grew exponentially. The conversation then goes to Yuvals investment strategy of owning three, three-flats, his luck on having the right timing on things, and his passion for helping people and creating a collaborative environment. This ranges from providing the agents in his office with the tools to succeed like a full-fledged marketing staff, coaching, classes, massage services, and even creating partnerships with vendors like messengers services and organic meat vendors. Yuval also discusses the differences in the marketplace that he sees between Evanston and the North Shore as compared to the City of Chicago, specifically in how business is conducted. By being a smaller market than the city, agents can really get to learn the market in greater depth by touring houses, and developing strong relationships with one another. Yuval also sees the future of Dreamtown as a growing company through organic growth of nurturing the current agents businesses, and attracting talented agents throughout the industry. Yuval can be reached at yuval@dreamtown.com or his website at http://www.dreamtown.com/agents/yuval-degani.html. He can be found on instagram @marshual.
