Episode 5 - Part 1 It's Not Always Sunny

Hello friends and neighbours and random podcast . This is part 1 of a two part series looking at problem properties and crime rates in the area. It is a departure from my usual content and instead of focusing on what is great and wonderful about the hood, of which there are many many things, I wanted to honour the voices of people who experience the not so great things in our area.

Just a quick warning - there is some foul language in this podcast AND some really bad dramatic readings of newspaper quotes. Apologies friends! I will continuously try to do better.

Please see below links to articles and information that I have used in this episode. Take care and be well! Listen here. Article quoting Councilor Caterina:
