Founder of Flying Embers, Bill Moses, on the Thomas Fire and His Resulting Commitment to Supporting Firefighters

Flying Embers founder and CEO Bill Moses talks about his harrowing experience in the Thomas Fire and how it led to the Flying Embers organic alcohol brand. For 3 nights, Bill witnessed the power of nature, as well as firefighters' skill and determination in battling it. In that moment (and in gratitude to them), Bill dedicated himself and Flying Embers to supporting firefighters by giving back 1% of all sales to firefighter causes. Listen in...Hosts: Capt.
