Welcome to the latest episode of Londonist Out Loud, a podcast about London.
We hear about it all the time, but how much of a crisis is London's housing really in? When was it last this bad? What are the causes and what solutions can be implemented? This week N Quentin Woolf talks to three experts, Oxford University's Professor Danny Dorling, author of books such as Inequality And The 1%; Alex Hilton, director of campaign group Generation Rent; and David Orr, chief executive of the National Housing Federation.
This is the first of a two-part special podcast on this important issue. Please do let us know your thoughts via Twitter @londonistsound and @londonist or in the comments. We'd love to hear your experiences and what you think can be done to solve the problems.
