Flash Back Friday - Bring Your Own Brigade Director Lucy Walker

Published: Aug. 20, 2021, 5:05 p.m.

Welcome to Flash Back Friday! With 600+ episodes, we're excited to revisit some of our favorites with our new listeners (and maybe new to our regular listeners).

In this FBF, we're headed back to early 2021 to the Sundance Film Festival talking with  Emmy-winning director Lucy Walker about her film Bring Your Own Brigade. Lucy shares her journey digging into the complicated history of California wildfires in her documentary (spoiler alert: we can't blame everything on global warming).  Bring Your Own Brigade is timely as fire season  has officially started in California and while this is an examination about the 2018 Paradise and Malibu fires - all of the investigation and reporting that Lucy shares in this film could make a difference now if we all take action.  We know watching a documentary about wildfires may sound dismal, but believe us, there's so many good nuggets in this film we hope you'll move beyond that and support this film and filmmaker.  Climate change is here but we can do something about it.
