Coming up on today's show:

- William Spisak, director of programs at Chhaya CDC, a housing advocacy group in Jackson Heights, and Yangchen Chadotsang, Chhaya housing preservation program manager, talk about their new report on the way small homes in Queens are increasingly being purchased by investment companies instead of families who are often new immigrants, and what that means for the neighborhoods.
