First-time jobless claims have been pretty stable since the start of March — unlike many other parts of the economy. President Donald Trump's tariffs and immigration restrictions may not be ideal for businesses, but they could give companies a reason to hold on to workers. Also in this episode: The European Central Bank cuts its key interest rate, get that EV tax credit while you can, and a martial arts master stays in Altadena, California, after losing her studio in the wildfires.
California, the union's largest state for manufacturing, says the executive branch lacks the constitutional authority to enact tariffs. The lawsuit is the most significant legal challenge to the Trump tariffs. We'll hear more. Then, when Marketplace's David Brancaccio lost his Altadena home to wildfires earlier this year, he found his charred router among the rubble. We'll learn what he had to go through to avoid a fee from his internet provider.

In this episode, we meet Erion and Stephon Taylor, who lost everything when the Eaton Fire tore through Altadena. With just minutes to escape, they fled with their three children and Erion’s 75-year-old mother-in-law. When they returned, only a single Dutch oven—still sealed from the night before—remained. Now, as developers circle and pressure builds, families like the Taylors are standing their ground, sending a powerful message: Altadena is not for sale.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Omnivore Recordings co-founder and four-time Gramny-winning producer Cheryl Pawelski has figured out how to do what she loves for a living. She went from obsessing about music in Milwaukee to having great adventures in the "floater pool" at Capitol Records in Los Angeles. With stints at Rhino and Concord as well, she oversaw ambitious reissues by, among others, the Band, Big Star, the Smithereens, the Beach Boys, Pat Benatar, Nina Simone and the Miles Davis Quintet. Her long association with Wilco has included deluxe boxes for Summerteeth, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot (which won a Grammy) and, earlier this year, A Ghost Is Born. She won another Grammy for the 2023 7-CD set Written In Their Soul: The Stax Songwriter Demos. She recounts it all with the passion of a fan, even as she deals with the challenges of running a record label and the recent loss of her Altadena home in the Southern California wildfires.

In early January 2025, catastrophic wildfires swept through the ancestral homelands of the Tongva, Tataviam, Serrano, Kizh, and Chumash Peoples. National media coverage largely overlooked how our Indigenous relatives were responding, and coping amid the uncontrollable flames, and how they were recovering after.To document these stories from an Indigenous perspective, we sent our teammate Francisco “Panchó” Sánchez, a Xicano filmmaker and journalist, to Tovangar. In this episode, he sits down with community members, activists, and organizers so we can hear their experiences and understand this climate crisis from an Indigenous perspective. We are honored to be in conversation with:– Jessa Calderon (Chumash and Tongva), poet, musician, author of Sisterhood, and Director of The Land, Water and Climate Justice for Sacred Places Institute for Indigenous Peoples– Jolie Varela (Tule River Yokuts and Nüümü), founder of Indigenous Women Hike.– Vanecia Antuanette Edwards (Mvskoke), Senior Director of Operations and Strategy at Urban American Indian Involvement (UAII).– Amy Stretten (Chickahominy), Director of Marketing and Communications at UAII.– Alexia Palomino Cortez, PhD candidate and Altadena fire survivor.– Katherine Guerrero-Yañez, adopted Tongva tribal member and Altadena high school teacher.If settler-colonialism's land mismanagement is the root of our current climate catastrophe, then the path forward is rooted in Indigenous land stewardship, for we know fire as a relative, water as life, and earth as home. The stories shared in this episode remind us that the work ahead requires us all — not just to respond to crisis, but to return to relationship. To steward, to protect, to show up for each other like family. Because relatives keep us safe.Learn more and support the work of our guests: – Sacred Places Institute for Indigenous Peoples: sacredplacesinstitute.org – Indigenous Women Hike: indigenouswomenhike.com – Urban American Indian Involvement (UAII): uaii.orgCreditsReporting, field production and film work by Francisco “Pancho” Sánchez (@videosdelsancho)Editing by Teo ShantzProduced by Matika WilburCo/hosted by Temryss LaneSocial Media by Katharina Mei-Fa BrinschwitzSend us your thoughts!Support the showFollow us on Instagam @amrpodcast, or support our work on Patreon.

Today on Airtalk, we get the latest on Trump’s tariffs and how they may impact California. Also on the show, we look at how far California education officials can push back against DEI orders; a new state bill considers extending last call; new Imperfect Paradise episode explores rebuilding in Altadena; listeners share their thoughts on rebuilding after the wildfires; and more. How tariffs will impact California (00:17) Can California K-12 schools push back against DEI orders? (20:25) New state bill would extend last call (37:15) Imperfect Paradise: rebuilding Altadena’s Black community (51:23) Wildfire survivors on whether or not to rebuild (1:18:15)
California’s nearly $4 trillion economy is heavily dependent on international trade. A tariff war could impact that significantly. The Altadena Ale and Wine House survived the Eaton Fire. Owner Gail Casburn also lost her house — and won’t give up her beloved pub. Dyanne Cano put together an archival map of 84 independent record stores that closed in LA between 1956 and 2020. They highlight Dolphin’s of Hollywood Records, Record Store Discos Exitos No. 2, and Vinyl Fetish. “White Lotus,” about ultra-rich people’s antics, wrapped its third season. How does the series continue to grab our imagination?

The world has never been the same since January, 2025, not here in LA since the catastrophic fires, and not nationally since President Donald Trump took office. So we're talking to @JohnKobyltRadio today about what's happening both here and around the country. John hosts the number one local talk show in the country on @KFIam640 and @iHeart, talking with experts daily about what's going on, what to expect, and what the heck is happening. We do NOT always agree politically, so our conversations are always interesting. We'll be talking about what's been done since the fires in the Palisades/Malibu and Altadena. The cost, the efficiency, all of it. We'll also delve into the homeless crisis in this city that seems to be an ever growing controversy in who is doing what, and where's the money for it? Nationally, tariffs, 401k's, and the growing concern so many Americans have over what's next. It's a lot to take in. Please join @JohnKobyltOfficial and me, #DeborahZaraKobylt, when we discuss this and more on #DeborahKobyltLIVE, on all video and audio platforms including YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and iHeart. We look forward to having you join us. And invite your friends, too.

A few weeks ago, in record time, the good folks behind the LA Chef Conference, organized a benefit for victims of the recent, devastating LA wildfires. Dubbed Chefs ❤️ LA, the event raised more than$800,000, with all proceeds going to World Central Kitchen and Restaurants Care to support their work on behalf of those who lost their homes in the conflagrations. It was a restorative and emotional evening, and Andrew was honored to be in attendance to interview some key participants. This episode takes you inside the planning of an event of this scale, (it was hosted at the expansive Lawry's The Prime Rib), features interviews with auctioneer Billy Harris, chefs Nyesha Arrington and Sherry Yard, Darin Bresnitz (who lost his home in the fires), Ellen Marie Bennett (from outside the site of her childhood home in Altadena, which was lost in the fire), and others. The episode is also a celebration of the spirit of the industry and testament to the way so many chefs, purveyors, restaurateurs, and others step up when tragedy strikes.To donate, visit the Chefs ❤️ LA homepage and scroll down to mid-page.Huge thanks to Andrew Talks to Chefs' presenting sponsor, meez, the recipe operating software for culinary professionals.

This Week: Tired of the wickedness coming from DC? Us too. And, we're gonna keep you updated on the latest. Trump threatened states with stripping federal education funds if they don't sign a letter within 10 days certifying they don't do DEI. The Supreme Court, in all of its great wisdom, reversed a lower court's injunction preventing the Trump admin from withholding hundreds of millions in funding for teacher preparation and training. And, as the move towards privatization of public education shifts into overdrive, we check in on one of the most fascinating, and disturbing examples of what can happen when school is in the wrong hands -- Kanye's Donda Academy. It's as messed up as you'd think, and worse. Manuel and Jeff discuss! WAYS TO HELP WITH THE EATON FIRE IN ALTADENA/PASADENA -- Please consider giving what you can!

For more than 80 years, the Zorthian Ranch – nestled among the oak trees and steep canyons of Altadena – has been a home for artists, musicians and creatives seeking a different way of life. At this working ranch, people also tend animals and live close to the land, often growing their own food and generating their own energy. But it was almost completely destroyed by the Eaton Fire, and more than twenty people were displaced. Recent resident and audio reporter Sam Anderson interviewed members of this community, who explain the unique history of the ranch, and share in their own words and sounds what it means to them. Artists are often the people in our communities who bring people together in ways that are creative, spontaneous, and surprising. That's true in the East Bay neighborhood of Point Richmond, where a local artist has created dozens of miniature fairy houses brimming with the personality of their imaginary inhabitants. In this story from the Bay Curious podcast, KQED's Pauline Bartolone set out to explore these hidden treasures, and meet the person who created them. Learn more about your ad choices.

As the earth continues to heat up unsustainably due to society's love of fossil fuels, scientists say natural disasters are only going to become more frequent and more destructive. That's something California knows all too well. Wildfires burned more than 58,000 acres this year and destroyed more than 16,000 structures, according to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.For many towns, a disaster like a wildfire or hurricane can completely destroy the town and its history, leaving its residents wondering if it can ever be what it once was. The Altadena community is seeing that process play out. The Eaton fire killed 19 people and destroyed more than 9,000 homes when it burned through the neighborhood outside of Los Angeles earlier this year. We discuss what choices families are left to face in the aftermath of a disaster that destroys their home, and what the process looks like if you do try to rebuild.Want to support 1A?
