    How Hollywood (and Awards Season) Can Help Rebuild Los Angeles

    Matt is joined by Bloomberg’s Lucas Shaw to discuss the fallout from the devastating fires in L.A. that are still ongoing. So much of Los Angeles is made up of the entertainment industry—from movie stars, directors, and agents to camera operators, teamsters, caterers, and production assistants—thousands of whom have been seriously affected by the fires. Matt and Lucas take a look at how Hollywood can help rebuild the city of L.A., and how it can leverage events like the Oscars and Grammys to actually benefit those in need. They also look at the long-term impact of the fires on Los Angeles as the entertainment capital of the world, and wonder if this will exacerbate the continued struggle to keep movie and TV production in L.A., or if this could be the beginning of a triumphant rebuild.
