このコンテンツについて

Welcome to Common Sense Citizen, a Thrive LA podcast where civic leaders, entrepreneurs, and everyday Angelenos come together to discuss real solutions to LA’s biggest challenges.


In this premiere episode, host Ryan Afari is joined by fellow Thrive LA Officers—Casa Vega owner Christy Vega and attorney/activist Sam Yebri—as well as venture capitalist and Thrive LA member John Kim, to dive into what’s broken in Los Angeles—and what we can do about it.


From small business struggles to housing policy, homelessness, public safety, and civic accountability, this roundtable offers a raw, honest look at how everyday citizens are being left behind—and why it’s time to bring common sense back to local politics.


If you're tired of political extremes, fed up with inaction, and ready to be part of the change, you're in the right place.

  • A Radical Middle Rises: Holding LA’s Leaders Accountable
    2025/04/10

    In this inaugural episode of Common Sense Citizen, host Ryan Afari is joined by restaurateur Christy Vega, venture capitalist John Kim, and attorney/activist Sam Yebri for a passionate, unfiltered look at the policies and politics shaping Los Angeles. Brought together under the umbrella of Thrive LA, they highlight the systemic breakdowns recently exposed by the city’s wildfire crisis—from crumbling infrastructure to chronically under-resourced fire and police departments—and underscore the need for citizens to get engaged.

    The panel explores why national political labels fail to solve local problems, and how performative policies lead to skyrocketing rents, overwhelming regulations on small businesses, and the perpetuation of homelessness. They call for practical, results-driven reform—a “radical middle” approach—rooted in accountability and common sense. Learn why 2026’s major city elections could transform LA’s future, and how everyday Angelenos can seize this moment to recruit better leaders, demand fiscal transparency, and reimagine public safety. Whether you’re a lifelong Angeleno or new to the city, this episode will inspire you to step up, get informed, and reclaim a Los Angeles where everyone can truly thrive.
