Heating Up

When the Mt Gosper fire tore through New South Wales in 2019, exhausted crews faced an inferno unlike anything before — a fire that merged with six others to become a living, breathing monster.

In this episode, we step inside that moment: the pressure, the chaos, and the heartbreaking aftermath that still divides those who were there.
