    The Southern California Fire Disaster: One Month Later

    Exactly one month ago, the worlds of several thousand LA County residents were turned upside down ... when violent winds stoked massive fires that left a trail of unprecedented destruction. Tonight we will bring you the survival stories of six people who lost everything during the January 7th fires ... three residents of the Pacific Palisades, and three residents of Altadena. We'll ask about processing and overcoming the trauma, about their dealings with insurance companies and the government ... and ask about the next stages of recovering, and rebuilding. The only voices you'll hear tonight, aside from Charles & Margaret, are from the survivors. No politicians, no officials, no analysts ... just the people who lost it all, but have come out the other end still standing ... still fighting.

    The Southern California Fire Disaster: What Now?

    This is a story about historic fires, survival, and what promises to be monumental efforts to rebuild and flourish in an often hostile environment where danger lurks with every gust of wind. In short, it is a story about ourselves. As tens of thousands of L.A. County residents spent the last two weeks trying to stay alive and keep their homes from burning to the ground, there was little time to think about how these fires will change the complexion of our region. But as the flames die down and we all absorb the staggering losses of people and property, our focus shifts to picking up the pieces and choosing the best path forward. In a KNX News special, we look back at how the fires ripped through communities and the destruction left in their wakes ... and we look forward to the immensely complicated questions about recovery and rebuilding.

    Why tech moguls suddenly love Trump + Christmas chaos in Congress

    32 days to go before Donald Trump takes over as President of the United States ... although considering how the last couple of days have gone, one would be forgiven thinking he's already moved into the White House! Thanks for counting down with us ... on today's Countdown 2025: We'll examine the chaos unfolding in Congress ... where the government is set to close down tomorrow night and Republicans can't decide if it's Donald Trump, Mike Johnson or Elon Musk in charge. We'll be talking with a Republican member of Congress to ask what comes next.
