TitleMy burned down car.Colin and Samir
This is a picture of my car right [music] after the LA fires last year. And I remember when we first came up here and I walked around my home, there's a lot of things that I felt really [music] sad about losing. Like the first guitars I had when I was a kid or the suit that I wore to my [music] wedding. But when I looked at my car, I didn't really feel anything. And that's because the car that I had was very much for utility. There was no real like emotional story behind it. >> So a lot of the rebuilding and reinvention that Samir and I [music] have been going through over the past 18 months has to do with this car, the car that we are sitting in right now. So in this video we're going to tell you the story of this [music] car as well as some of the lessons we have learned since the fires in January of 2025.
