About Crusade for Good

Crusade for Good explores the untold stories, real challenges, and emerging opportunities in the world of affordable housing. In each episode, we sit down with developers, housing authority leaders, policy makers, architects, community organizers, and residents to unpack what it really takes to build, preserve, and sustain homes that are not only low-cost—but also dignified, resilient, and community-centered.

The State of Affordable Housing in 2026: Lessons, Delays, and What Comes Next

In this year-end episode of Crusade for Good, leaders from Knight Development Company reflect on the realities of affordable housing development in 2025—and what lies ahead in 2026.   Holly Knight and Joy Miller discuss government shutdown delays, rising construction costs, interest rate pressure, and why workforce housing has become one of the most urgent needs across the country. The conversation also explores how AI and technology are reshaping asset management, how RAD conversion continues to challenge housing authorities, and why community involvement—from robotics programs to resident relationships—matters just as much as closing deals.   This episode offers a candid, inside look at the current state of affordable housing, lessons learned over the last five years, and how developers, housing authorities, and community leaders can think differently about the future.

EP 5: Up and Out: Michael Lundy on Turning Public Housing into a Pathway to Independence

In this final episode of the Crusade for Good Legacy Series, host Adrian sits down with Michael Lundy, President & CEO of the St. Petersburg Housing Authority, to reflect on a 40-year career dedicated to reimagining public and affordable housing. From growing up in public housing himself to leading housing authorities across the country, Lundy shares the philosophy that has shaped his life’s work: housing should be a stabilizing force—not a permanent destination. He discusses the unintended consequences of well-meaning systems, the importance of self-sufficiency programs, and why meeting people where they are must always be paired with a clear path forward. The conversation explores real-world outcomes—from Family Self-Sufficiency programs and homeownership to large-scale redevelopment, adaptive reuse, and public-private partnerships that preserve affordability for the long term. It’s an honest, grounded look at what it takes to move communities “up and out,” and why leadership, accountability, and belief in people still matter.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
