For years, we've been told that lower mortgage rates could reignite homebuyer demand and help improve affordability so first-time homebuyers (or even rookie landlords) can finally buy their first property. But, with mortgage interest rates lowering right before our eyes, we're noticing something peculiar—affordability isn't improving. Home prices are staying stagnant, if not rising. Thanks to America's “golden handcuffs,” we're still in a housing market standoff, but there might be some solutions to fix it. We're bringing on The New York Times' Rukmini Callimachi, a real estate correspondent, to shed light on the vast affordability crisis affecting America. With homes “unmanageably expensive,” regardless of whether you're renting or buying, we need solutions that don't just spark up demand (like lowering mortgage rates). There's one glaring problem plaguing the property market, but why won't anybody fix it? Today, we're cracking this discussion wide open, speaking on the solutions that could ACTUALLY increase affordability in the future, the rising homelessness problem affecting working Americans and students, and how NIMBYism (not in my backyard) could be forcefully put to stop as communities struggle to build enough housing. If you want to get in (or get back in) the real estate game, whether as an investor, house hacker, or first-time homebuyer, these solutions could directly affect you! In This Episode We Cover: Housing inventory update and the “golden handcuffs” keeping housing constrained  Why homebuyers are stuck and the magic interest rate that could unlock demand  The root of our housing problems and what we must do NOW to fix it  Growing homelessness (even among working adults) and why housing costs have gotten too high  Modular home building and how this new type of construction could change the housing market forever  And So Much More!

An under-studied segment of our country's homeless population are those who are experiencing “vehicular homelessness.” These are people who sometimes choose, but are often forced, to call their cars their home. The reasons are manifold, including unmanageable rents, bad credit, too much debt, and often just bad luck. For her new article, “I Live In My Car,” New York Times reporter Rukmini Callimachi went to the outskirts of Seattle to spend a few days with a family living out of their sedan in a church parking lot. We'll talk to Callimachi about the dozens of people she met, both car dwellers and those trying to help them. And then we'll speak to a researcher from UCLA to find out how they're studying the topic in Los Angeles.

The New York Times’ wildly popular podcast Caliphate came into question after its central character, a Canadian man who claimed he’d joined ISIS and committed executions, was charged with perpetrating a terrorist hoax. A re-investigation of the podcast by The Times concluded that, according to an editor’s note attached to the podcast, “episodes of Caliphate that presented Mr. Chaudhry’s claims did not meet our standards for accuracy.”  The debacle caused Rukmini Callimachi, the reporter and voice of Caliphate, to be reassigned to a new beat. And it has resurfaced allegations of workplace misconduct by Caliphate producer Andy Mills, provoked concerns about The Daily host Michael Barbaro’s efforts to shape coverage of the fallout, and set off a wider conversation about who gets to tell stories in podcasting. In this episode, Washington Post media critic Erik Wemple discusses where Caliphate went wrong. Laila Al-Arian, executive producer of Al Jazeera’s Fault Lines, critiques the reporting biases she believes contributed to the error.  Then, podcast host Jolenta Greenberg weighs in on what this episode tells us about the rise of the podcast industry.When asked for comment by Canadaland, The New York Times pointed us to this letter from assistant managing editor Sam Dolnick, written in response to a letter of complaint by members of the Public Radio Program Directors Association. In it, Dolnick writes: “We believe we’ve handled what was a significant journalistic lapse with accountability.” This episode is brought to you by Dispatch Coffee, SquareSpace, and Article.

Ett gripande i Kanada reser frågan om New York Times succépodd bygger på en bluff. Guldbron sätter stopp för journalistexpressen mellan Södermalm och Radiohuset. Varför hackades LRF-media av Vietnam? Blev New York Times lurade av IS-terrorist Prestigetidningen The New York Times skakas just nu av vad som kan komma att betecknas som ett fullständigt publicistiskt haveri. Det handlar om den prisbelönta podden, Caliphate, gjord av tidningens stjärnreporter när det kommer till terrorism Rukmini Callimachi. Podden, som fick enorm uppmärksamhet bygger framförallt på ett möte med en kanadensare som anslutit sig till terrorgruppen IS. En unik intervju där mannen berättar ingående om hur han anslöt sig till terrorgruppen och hur han i dess namn utförde flera bestialska mord i det så kallade kalifatet. Problemet är bara att mannen för tre veckor sen greps i Kanada, anklagad för att ha hittat på alltihop. Reporter: Johan Cedersjö. Guldbron sätter stopp för journalistexpressen Gräv där du står är inom journalistiken en urgammal lärdom. Det betyder att man ska avslöja missförhållanden i ens egen närhet. Men som journalist har man, under just förevändningen att man gräver där man står, också makten att tala i egen sak. När busslinje 76 mellan Södermalm och Radiohuset nu får en ny rutt, tog det skruv rejält. Och det gjorde det i Radiohuset. Det var ett "Chockbesked", det var granskning med hemliga källor och det var mycket av det hela. Vår reporter Tonchi Percan bestämde sig för att ta buss 76 från Slussen till Radiohuset, den så kallade journalistexpressen. LRF-media hackade av vietnameser Vad har LRF media gemensamt med fotbollsspelaren Bransilav Ivanovic och vad har det med vietnamesisk hudvård att göra? För några veckor sen blev LRF medias Facebooksidor kapade. De förlorade kontrollen över inläggen och sidorna försvann helt från plattformen. Det här är ju en typ av händelse som inträffar ganska ofta, men i det här fallet var sambanden så förvånande att vår reporter Erik Petersson var tvungen att gå till botten med varför vietnamesiska hudvårdssäljare verkar ha hackat en tidning som skriver om svenskt lantbrukspolitik.

En NotiPod Hoy The New York Times está revisando su pódcast ‘Caliphate’ luego de los cargos en contra de uno de los protagonistas de su historia Las autoridades canadienses arrestaron a un hombre que apareció en el pódcast Caliphate de The New York Times y lo acusaron de afirmar falsamente haber sido un verdugo de ISIS. Tras la acusación de haber fabricado su participación en actos de terrorismo en Siria con ISIS y de plantear “preocupaciones de seguridad pública entre los canadienses”, un portavoz del _Times _dijo en un comunicado que el periódico estaba llevando a cabo una nueva revisión de su historia y la forma en que lo presentaron en su serie. Indicaron que una vez se complete la revisión harían más comentarios. El portavoz también aseguró que, si bien la incertidumbre sobre la historia fue explorada, las acusaciones de ahora plantean nuevas preguntas. Por su parte, Rukmini Callimachi, la reportera del _Times _y presentadora del pódcast dijo que agradecía la investigación de The Times y aseguró que es algo que «nos sirve a todos aprender todo lo posible sobre la historia completa detrás del complicado relato de Huzayfah». La historia de cómo empezó el pódcast de diseño 99% Invisible Este pódcast fue creado y es producido de forma independiente por Roman Mars. Comenzó como un proyecto de colaboración entre San Francisco **Public Radio KALW **y el Instituto Americano de Arquitectos en San Francisco. Asegura que lo que lo inspiró a ser un podcaster fue darse cuenta de que podía llegar a la audiencia directamente sin que el gerente de la estación le dijera si valía la pena ponerlo en el aire, si encajaba con el sonido, o si era adecuado para una determinada hora del día. Entonces hizo un pequeño módulo para la edición matutina en KALW, pero sus amigos, que no pudieron escucharlo cuando salió al aire, le sugirieron ponerlo en otro lugar. De ahí surgió la idea de ponerlo en un pódcast. Hoy día, ocho años después, el programa suma 450.000.000 descargas y se ha convertido en el pódcast de Apple # 1 en la categoría de artes y el # 8 en todos los podcasts. Conoce la historia de su éxito en detalle en este reportaje de Podcast Magazine. Cómo el mexicano Carlos Puig encontró la magia de contar historias sonoras en podcasts Carlos Puig es un reconocido y prestigioso periodista mexicano que tiene una extensa carrera en medios de comunicación tradicionales en varios países. Después de esa vasta experiencia decidió hacer podcasts y para ello fundó **Así como suena, **la productora y distribuidora de pódcast más conocida de México. En esta entrevista para Radio Nacional Colombia, Puig contó cómo pasó al pódcast. Reveló que la iniciativa surgió como una necesidad entre periodistas de experimentar con algo nuevo. Y así nació Así como suena. Comenzaron a hacer las historias, llegaron otros amigos, invirtieron un poco de dinero y formaron una empresa. Tienen podcasts que no son necesariamente periodísticos, ya que tienen programas de turismo y también de comedia. La empresa comenzó haciendo podcasts para el público, pero hoy día también hacemos producciones para empresas. Puig diferencia las historias de la radio con las del podcasting porque en la radio la emoción del oyente tiene que ver con estar en vivo y la noticia del día. El pódcast, por su parte, tiene otras características como un guión bien planeado, que le permite tener una mejor producción y una gran narrativa, por ejemplo, según explican en la web de Radio Nacional. Otras tendencias y noticias que pueden serte útiles: iVoox lanza una nueva función. Se trata de Fragmentos, una funcionalidad que permite que todos tus episodios de fans tengan en el ‘feed’ una pequeña muestra del audio original, de entre un 7 y un 10%, y como máximo 15 minutos.

Melanie, Zack, and Chris unpack why the United States has failed to contain the novel coronavirus. Most blame poor leadership in the United States — from the White House to public health officials and down to key figures in the media during the earliest stages of the disease. A more focused effort, sooner, as was implemented in many other developed countries, might have worked. But some see a deeper problem — American exceptionalism, especially an unwillingness to learn from the others’ approaches. If the United States does not turn things around soon, and demonstrate its capacity for solving the pandemic, will U.S. allies and partners be as willing to follow its leadership on a range of other problems? What will be the lasting effects of COVID-19 on the global order, and America’s place in it? Grievances are aired for Tucker Carlson, the House Armed Service Committee, and the Russians — and the Americans who excuse or ignore their behavior. Zack praises the Washington professional football team for its impending name change, and Chris praises the House and Senate Armed Services Committees for planning to do the same for U.S. military bases. Melanie gives a shout out to the Australians for a serious defense strategy and offers warm and heartfelt congratulations to her niece Kaylee for getting accepted to a top medical school — and to her mom (Melanie’s sister) for helping to set up her three daughters for success.   Links   Jeremy Konyndyk, “Exceptionalism Is Killing Americans: An Insular Political Culture Failed the Test of the Pandemic,” Foreign Affairs, June 8, 2020 Farhad Manjoo, “The World Builds a Wall to Keep America Out,” New York Times, July 1, 2020 Rebecca Kheel, “House Panel Approves $740.5B Defense Policy Bill,” The Hill, July 1, 2020 Jeff Cox, “The Coronavirus Will Cost the Economy Nearly $8 Trillion, Congressional Budget Office Says,” CNBC, July 1, 2020 Rebecca Kheel, “House Armed Services Votes to Make Pentagon Rename Confederate-Named Bases in a Year,” The Hill, July 1, 2020 Sam LaGrone, “Senate Bill to Purge Confederate Names from U.S. Military Could Affect Two Navy Ships,” USNI News, June 12, 2020 “Challenging Convention: Charting a New Course for the New American Engagement Initiative,” Atlantic Council, July 9, 2020 James Fallows, "The Three Weeks that Changed Everything," The Atlantic, June 29, 2020 Stephen Grey, Andrew Macaskill, Ryan McNeill, Steve Stecklow, and Tommy Wilkes, "Into the Fog: How Britain Lost Track of the Coronavirus," Reuters, June 29, 2020 Shalini Ramachandran, Laura Kusisto, and Katie Honan, "How New York's Coronavirus Response Made the Pandemic Worse," Wall Street Journal, June 11, 2020 Chloe Taylor, "Belgium Had the Worst Response to the Coronavirus Crisis among OECD Countries, EIU Says," CNBC, June 17, 2020 Eric A.

You look up and there’s hundreds of windows, representing potentially thousands of eyes, looking down on that like a fishbowl. …They’re seeing it through the window and they can see that there’s a scarcity of response.
