About this listen

In the aftermath of the Los Angeles fires, Oh Gross! revisits our conversation with Kerry Sanders in this replay of Behind the Lens: Stories & Tips from Reporter Kerry Sanders. As communities reflect on how quickly a crisis can unfold—and how long the impact can last—this episode explores what happens when preparation, travel, and real-time reporting collide. An Emmy and Peabody Award–winning journalist and longtime NBC News correspondent, Kerry shares practical, often-overlooked advice for staying safe when traveling or navigating unfamiliar environments, especially as natural disasters and emergencies can happen anywhere. From simple habits like screenshotting maps before losing service to positioning your car for a fast exit, these small decisions can make a critical difference when things go wrong. Kerry also reflects on reporting through life-threatening situations, including Hurricane Andrew, offering a firsthand look at how journalists operate when they are not just covering a crisis, but living inside it. The conversation examines how social media has reshaped emergency reporting, amplifying both life-saving information and dangerous misinformation, and why discernment matters more than ever. This re-release serves as a reminder that preparedness is not only for journalists or first responders. Whether you are traveling, consuming breaking news, or supporting your community during a crisis, being informed, adaptable, and intentional can help protect lives, including your own. If you missed this conversation the first time, or are returning with a fresh perspective, Part 2 reinforces a simple truth: reliable information and basic preparedness go hand in hand, long before the emergency begins.
