Now infamous tweet by LA real-estate mogul Keith Wasserman looking for "private firefighters" to protect his own home and willing to "pay any amount."

Hörspiel-Empfehlung: "Kalkar 81." Lohnt sich! (Kleine Anmerkung aber noch an die Dialogregie. 1981 hat auf gar keinen Fall irgendein Bulle irgendjemanden einen "schönen Tag" gewünscht.) www1.wdr.de/radio/hoersp...
