Burn Perimeter

Burn Perimeter Dispatch from the LA Fires In this episode, we take a very personal look at the devastating LA fires, Burners stepping up to help, and the way our community shows up in moments of crisis. Today's episode features a conversation with Burner Podcast regular Dr. Kim Perkins and her husband Ranger Philtopia, both Black Rock Rangers, as they reflect on their experience living just around the corner from the the Altadena burn perimeter. Before that, you'll hear a 15-minute call with Efrain Vega De Varona, who has been working tirelessly on the front lines, coordinating direct relief efforts for those impacted by the fires. Efrain shares how he found himself in impromptu disaster relief, what's happening in real-time in Los Angeles from his perspective, and how you can help support those affected. While Kim and Phil's home was spared, many others were not. Our primary incentive for getting this episode out ASAP is the show notes.
