Joel Kotkin joins Ben Domenech on The Federalist Radio Hour to discuss how cities will be transformed after the coronavirus pandemic ends. Kotkin is the Presidential Fellow in Urban Futures at Chapman University in Orange, California and executive director of the Houston-based Urban Reform Institute.
