Evacuate Now: The Day Our World Caught Fire


Listen Later

When the Santa Ana winds hit and sirens filled the air, we had no idea our lives were about to be turned upside down. In this raw episode, we take you through our harrowing evacuation experience during the Eaton Canyon fires.

  • Watching the eastern sky glow orange as ash "snowed" down around us
  • The moment the power grid failed house by house like an apocalyptic movie
  • Our mad dash to save what matters most (and what we foolishly left behind)
  • The unexpected heroes who opened their homes when we had nowhere to go
  • The heartbreaking stories of those who lost everything while we were spared

From Amazon drivers still making deliveries in evacuation zones to standing in food pantry lines with fire victims who lost everything, this episode will change how you think about disaster preparedness. Listen now and ask yourself: what would YOU take if you had 20 minutes to evacuate?
