How do you build a life of greatness when your starting point doesn't look like opportunity at all?In this episode, Sarah Grynberg sits down with one of Hollywood's most respected producers, Bruna Papandrea, to explore the journey from growing up in a low socioeconomic household in South Australia to producing some of the most iconic films and television series of our time, including Big Little Lies, Gone Girl and Wild.Together, they unpack the moments that shaped Bruna's path, from the teachers who gave her confidence, to the heartbreak and curiosity that led her across the world, and the pivotal opportunities that changed everything. This is a deeply honest conversation about resilience, creative risk-taking, motherhood, health, and what it really means to pursue meaningful work in an unpredictable industry.You'll learn:Why you cannot change other people's story, only your ownHow curiosity, setbacks, and even heartbreak can shape your career pathThe power of teachers, mentorship, and confidence in defining your futureWhat it takes to build a global career while balancing family and healthWhy criticism and reviews don't define the value of your workThis episode is a reminder that greatness isn't linear. It's built through small decisions, unexpected turns, and the courage to keep going.

For many families in Australia, securing safe and affordable housing has become increasingly difficult. Some are turning to housing cooperatives (co-ops), but how exactly do they differ from traditional social housing? - Sa gitna ng nararanasang krisis sa pabahay sa Australia, housing cooperatives o co-ops ang nagiging alternatibo para sa ilang pamilyang nangangailangan at wala pang kakayahang bumili ng sariling tahanan. Pero paano ito naiiba sa public housing na alok ng gobyerno?

REWIND FROM THE ARCHIVES: Lynne Martine Patton, a Trump aid and federal housing official responsible for the New York City region, said she'd move out of Trump Plaza and into public housing to bring attention to "inhuman conditions." In this 2018 commentary from Laura Flanders, she proposes an alternative to Patton's stunt and Trump's pro-privatization agenda.Fast forward to today, check out this week's podcast on the Trump Administration and HUD: Title:  "Cuts, Shutdowns & Civil Rights Attacks: Federal Workers Fight Back" [episode cut & full uncut conversation]About 750,000 people are on unpaid leave as the U.S. government shutdown continues —  but some of the most caring parts of the government's work have been shut down for months. Civil rights attorneys Palmer Heenan and Paul Osadebe recently signed a shocking complaint letter describing chaos within the Department of Housing and Urban Development, which is responsible for protecting fair housing.“No one is asking for a leg up or an extra hand or whatever the case might be. We're just asking to get rid of discrimination. And so I hope the future will tell the story of people doing just that, coming together, going to Congress and saying, ‘These are our rights. You passed them into law decades ago. Fight for the rights that we have now.'” - Palmer Heenan“The thing that will actually get us through this is solidarity, recognizing what potential power we have as federal workers . . . [The administration wants] to create fear, which leads to silence, which lets things be dismantled without anyone standing up and fighting and saying, ‘This is illegal, this is wrong and this is harming people.' It's up to federal workers, the ones in the building, to actually do that.” - Paul OsadebeGuests:• Palmer Heenan: Attorney, HUD Whistleblower; Member, AFGE 476• Paul Osadebe: Attorney, HUD Whistleblower; Steward, AFGE 476 Watch the special report on YouTube; PBS World Channel Sundays 11:30am ET, and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

Across many democracies, far-right movements are gaining momentum — a trend that worries policymakers, researchers, and citizens alike. A common explanation points to material hardship: when people feel left behind economically and socially, they often turn to radical political alternatives. One critical dimension of this hardship is housing — especially the lack of affordable and secure homes. Could building more affordable housing help reduce support for far-right parties?New research provides a nuanced answer. It finds that expanding access to social housing does seem to lower far-right support — but only in areas with low immigration. In communities where immigration is already high, the effect reverses.To unpack why this is happening, and what it means for policymakers, host Prof Alan Renwick speaks with Dr. Gloria Gennaro, Lecturer in Public Policy and Data Science at UCL's Department of Political Science. Dr. Gennaro shares insights from her latest study, exploring how housing policy, economic insecurity, and social dynamics intersect with political behavior.Mentioned in this episode:Immigration, Public Housing and Support for the French National Front by Gloria Gennaro UCL's Department of Political Science and School of Public Policy offers a uniquely stimulating environment for the study of all fields of politics, including international relations, political theory, human rights, public policy-making and administration. The Department is recognised for its world-class research and policy impact, ranking among the top departments in the UK on both the 2021 Research Excellence Framework and the latest Guardian rankings.

From the publisher: As the US struggles to provide affordable housing, millions of Americans live in deteriorating public housing projects, enduring the mistakes of past housing policy. In The Projects, Howard A. Husock explains how we got here, detailing the tragic rise and fall of public housing and the pitfalls of other subsidy programs. He takes us inside a progressive movement led by a group of New York City philanthropists, politicians, and business magnates who first championed public housing as a solution to urban blight. From First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt to the controversial city planner Robert Moses, many well-known historical figures made a convincing case for affordable housing in America.Despite the movement's lofty ideals, the creation of the Projects led to the destruction of low-income communities across the country. From the Hill District in Pittsburgh to Black Bottom in Detroit, predominantly Black neighborhoods were judged only by the quality of their housing. Husock looks beyond these neighborhoods' physical conditions to their uncounted riches, from local artists like August Wilson to vital community institutions. As he shares residents' stories, he honors what they crafted through their own plans, rather than those of city planners.Husock traces the history of public housing to contemporary debates on the government's role in the housing market. Through interviews with residents, he reveals how public housing transformed the lives of Americans and the physical faces of cities and towns. He ultimately critiques "repair and reform" efforts, making policy recommendations that address the core failings of public housing for the people it was once designed to help. Mapping out a better path for policy-makers, he lays a new foundation for upward mobility in America.For information on his book from NYU Press, check out: https://nyupress.org/9781479828432/the-projects/Support our show and Reach out and Read of Tampa Bay at https://patreon.com/axelbankhistoryAxelbankHistory.com is designed by https://www.ellieclairedesigns.com/Axelbank Reports History and Today" can be found on social media at https://twitter.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://instagram.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://facebook.com/axelbankhistory

Howard Husock joins Stephen Eide to discuss his new book, The Projects: A New History of Public Housing.

In the 1930s, New Deal-era technocrats devised a solution to homelessness and poverty itself. They believed that providing free or low-cost urban housing projects could completely eliminate housing scarcity. Planners envisioned urban communities that would propel their residents into the middle class, creating a flywheel of abundance where poverty was eradicated. However, once construction began after World War II, these projects quickly became dangerous, poorly maintained slums, serving as breeding grounds for crime and decay. By the 1970s, crime rates were so high that levels of violence rivaled those of war zones in Sub-Saharan Africa. What happened? Why did so many of the best and brightest who promoted housing projects—like First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt or city planner Robert Moses—create one of the worst government debacles of the 20th century? Why didn’t they foresee that housing projects would become hotbeds of crime, completely destroying the social fabric of the neighborhoods they aimed to help? Today’s guest is Howard Husock, author of “The Projects: A New History of Public Housing.” He explains how we got here, detailing the tragic rise and fall of public housing and the pitfalls of other subsidy programs. He takes us inside a progressive movement led by a group of New York City philanthropists, politicians, and business magnates who first championed public housing as a solution to urban blight. We explore everything that went wrong and what can be done to avoid these same mistakes in the future.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sam Sells is a retired U.S. Air Force officer turned impact investor and entrepreneur who has led the acquisition and management of over $200 million in commercial real estate assets. As co-founder of Impact Growth Capital and host of the Disruptive Capitalists podcast, Sam specializes in building wealth by solving critical housing challenges—especially in America's most neglected communities. His approach combines military discipline, systems thinking, and a passion for making a difference at scale. On this episode we talk about: – How Sam made his first dollar as a kid selling whatever he could—and why his last name “Sells” fits his entrepreneurial journey – Lessons from a global military career, building sustainable healthcare systems, and learning to create repeatable, high-impact outcomes – The moment in Chad, Africa, that sparked his mission to pursue financial freedom and help others achieve it – Why real estate became Sam's vehicle for impact and wealth, starting with mobile home parks and scaling to national projects – The realities of flipping homes, the misleading nature of TV real estate shows, and the importance of understanding the real numbers – How Sam used creative strategies like master lease agreements to acquire and improve properties with limited capital – The risks and pitfalls of real estate investing—over-leverage, mismanagement, and the brutal lessons of recent market cycles – Why America is the country's largest “slumlord,” and how Sam is tackling public housing's massive problems through public-private partnerships – How Impact Growth Capital works with HUD and local housing authorities to renovate or rebuild thousands of government-owned units, using government funding and innovative systems to guarantee returns and create real social mobility – The unique, vertically integrated model that combines real estate development, nonprofit resident support, and measurable poverty reduction – The challenges and rewards of scaling a national impact business, and why entrepreneurship—not bureaucracy—is the key to solving America's toughest problems – How others can get involved as investors or partners in this mission Top 3 Takeaways 1. Impact and Profit Can Coexist: You can build wealth and make a real difference by solving urgent problems—like America's public housing crisis—at scale. 2. Creative Structures Unlock Opportunity: Master leases, public-private partnerships, and government-backed funding can open doors for investors willing to learn and innovate. 3. Entrepreneurship Drives Change: Lean, mission-driven entrepreneurs are better equipped than government alone to tackle complex social issues and deliver lasting results. Notable Quotes – “No matter how hard he works, he's never going to become free. What do I need to do to become free—and how can I help as many other people become free as possible?” – “The number one slumlord in America is America. Public housing authorities own nearly 900,000 units—seven times the size of Blackstone.” – “We can do good and do well at the same time. Our intent is to help millions get out of poverty and help our investors make a great return in the process.” Connect with Sam Sells: Email: sam@impactgrowthcap.com Website: impactgrowthcap.com Podcast: Disruptive Capitalists LinkedIn: Search “Sam Sells Impact Growth Capital”
