Off-Ramp Goes Live to Report on the Fires
This week, a rare-live Off-Ramp. We'll bring you the days fire news and also interview historian Mike Davis on the politics of the fire and LA Magazine's David Gardetta on the dangers of fighting fires. We also take you to on the scene. We walk the hills of Canyon Country as residents flee and spend a night in a Lake Arrowhead shelter as a ten-year-old girl prays for the best and much more.
