Episode Synopsis
Send us a textSue Pascoe, her husband, and their two dogs evacuated the Palisades Fire on January 7, 2025 with a couple of overnight bags and the dogs' food bowls. They'd evacuated plenty of times before. This would be like the last few times. They'd be back home the next day. But by the next day, her home was gone. Like thousands of other families, the Pascoes lost everything. Sue is a journalist for the online newspaper Circling the News. Her press credentials got her inside the barricades before the public was given access. What she saw, and what she learned in her reporting has made her very angry. Her story is eye opening and wrenching.Resources:Circling the NewsKTLA's News Story "Firefighters kept from front lines due to unserviced LAFD vehicles"How Much Will It Cost to Rebuild Los Angeles?FEMA Assistance for those Effected by the Wildfires
