Ep. 340: Los Angeles Fires Update ft. Brett Erlich

The Santa Ana winds dying down has allowed for firefighters to start battling the wildfires.

Brett Erlich joins Jordan to talk about the wildfires affecting the greater Los Angeles area, how they began, why they’re so uniquely destructive and what the impediments were to fighting them when they broke out.

We also get into how people try to exploit these moments for personal and political gain, try to inject their pet causes (i.e. “DEI”) into these stories and why some people are celebrating the destruction of homes belonging to the wealthy.
