THE BLURB: In January 2025, two massive wildfires devastated two different Los Angeles neighborhoods - Pacific Palisades on the west side and Altadena on the east side, just above Pasadena. In this episode David describes the differences and similarities between covering a fire and covering a firefight. How exactly does a journalist go about covering a natural disaster like a wild fire without becoming the wild fire's victim?


SHOW NOTES:

We recommend checking out the WATCH DUTY APP. Especially if you live anywhere near a possible wild fire area - which, these days, is more and more of the country (and, unfortunately the world). https://app.watchduty.org/
