In the first episode of Rising from the Ashes, KNX News reporter Nataly Tavidian recounts the day Southern California’s wildfires stopped being a story she was covering - and became the one she was living.
While reporting on the Palisades Fire, Nataly was sent to cover a new blaze threatening Pasadena and Altadena: the neighborhood where she grew up and the home her parents built after immigrating to the U.S. As evacuation orders spread, she rushed home while still on the air, trying to reach her family and rescue what mattered most.
The episode captures the collision between professional duty and personal loss, as Nataly and her brother returned to their property under extreme conditions, salvaging family photo albums and home videos while unsure if they would ever see the house again.
Episode 1 sets the foundation for the six-part series, exploring survival mode, adrenaline, and the moment a reporter becomes part of the disaster she is documenting - marking the beginning of a year-long journey through grief, recovery, and rebuilding.

On today's Countdown 2024: if Donald Trump's threats are to be taken seriously, no country is safe from having the Trump administration slap a tariff on its imports ... but how will that impact prices on every day goods ... and are trade wars indeed "good and easy to win" like the president-elect says? And we'll look at a pivotal transgender medical care case argued in front of the Supreme Court today, and discuss its implications for the bigger fight over transgender rights.
