Episodes

Episode 2 - King County Evictions

In this week’s episode you will hear from Jason Roth (Van Guy) and Jaskaran Singh both local rental housing providers as well as Kaitlyn Jackson, a local landlord-tenant law attorney. All three speak about the current state of affairs when it comes to eviction cases in King County and how, what should be a simple eviction for non-payment of rent, is taking upwards of a year. We discuss how the King County Court system and the Housing Justice Project seem to be creating a complete log jam of eviction cases. Whether that is by design or accidental, you decide. 

Episode 1 - John Hines

In our first episode I spoke with John Hines, Tacoma City Councilmember for District 1. We speak about his history in Tacoma, his drive to enter politics as well as the upcoming ballot Measure 1 which will have astronomical implications on rental housing in Tacoma.
