The Big Burn: The Impediments

Deep in the Mojave Desert, there is a little town with a big name and a bizarre history: California City. For decades, real estate developers have sold a dream here: if you buy land now, you&rsquo;ll be rich one day. Thousands of people bought this dream. Many were young couples and hard-working immigrants looking to build a better future. But much of the land they bought is nearly worthless. &nbsp;In this new podcast from LAist Studios, host Emily Guerin tells a story of money, power and deception.&nbsp;
