Host Geoff Norcross talks with OPB Senior Political Reporter Jeff Mapes and OPB Reporter Amelia Templeton. This week, we consider the political fallout from the homelessness problem in Portland. We look at Gov. Kate Brown’s endorsement of Measure 97. And we poke fun at our state with “That’s So Oregon!”
