On January 7, 2025, fires began to erupt around Los Angeles. This led to thousands of people being displaced, many losing their homes, and others losing their livelihoods. Some also lost their lives. As the fires continue to rage on, a member of the Disney community Jeff Gordon has sprung to action to raise funds for the LA Regional Food Bank. In this episode of Daps Magic (the Podcast), Mr. Daps interviews Jeff about his efforts to raise money and awareness for this organization and the people who benefit from it. They also discuss Jeff's other efforts to make the world a better place in the last few years. On top of that, there is also some discussion about Disney!
