Description
This week, Sara and Danny dive into the world of housing disputes. First up, the story of a pair of bamboccioni (aka big babies) in Italy whose 75 year old mother took them to court for free-loading.

Fnally, the story of Elizabeth Hirschhorn - aka the "tenant from hell" - who refused to leave (or pay for) her LA rental mansion for over 500 days, and previously pulled a similar stunt in Oakland.
