After the Ashes: A Beautiful Altadena Podcast

Who’s being left out? This podcast deep dives into the issues of recovery and rebuilding through the lens of policy.

Each episode, we dissect the policies and bills impacting Altadena, Los Angeles County, and the rest of the country post disaster. We break down what they say, what they really mean, who they affect, and what – and who – they leave out. Every episode closes out with a local small business shout out and most include a media roundup of what's making the headlines and what's not.

Your hosts:

Shawna Dawson Beer / @BeautifulAltadena, Eaton Fire Total Loss Survivor

Stephen Sachs / @AltaPolicyWonk, Eaton Fire Survivor, Current Altadena Resident

We are not advertiser, sponsor or grant funded and have no agenda beyond ensuring our neighbors in Altadena, the Palisades and beyond are as in the know as possible so that we can all be our own best advocates for ourselves and our towns.
